    No.. I am not spamming...!

    There are certain members (busy ones. But real gurus). They don't login to the forums daily. So, if I want to ask them for help(for my thread), then I need to ask via their email (some of them even disabled this option). So, I thought PMing is the best way.
    My mail account is Gmail. When I login to the forums, I open my gmail inbox in another tab. So, whenever a new PM or reply (to the threads that I have subscribed to) is got, I can see it directly from my gmail(as it will check for email periodically and updates the list of mails in the inbox).

    ....

    There are members who add something like "I do not answer questions asked by PM" and there are a lot of others who, like me, would prefer not to be asked because we already look for threads that we can (and want to) help with. So basically what you are doing is spam and we would prefer that you didn't send unwanted requests for help.

    Some of them had even not accepted my Friendship requests...(But they are listed in the Friends and Contacts section). So, will they join my group even if I request them...???

    Would creating a social group get the thread urgent attention though? I usually wait a couple of days before sending out private messages linking to the thread I need answered.
    when you quote a post could you please do it via the "Reply With Quote" button or if it multiple post click the "''+" button then "Reply With Quote" button.
    If this thread is finished with please mark it "Resolved" by selecting "Mark thread resolved" from the "Thread tools" drop-down menu.

    I don't believe this is an appropriate use of social groups.
