When I first joined the forum in 2011 they were called messages and you could delete them. Now they are called conversations and I cannot see where older ones can be deleted. I also see you can add others to the conversations and report them. Are these conversations moderated??? Big brother???

"Conversations" are identical in form and function to "messages".
They are moderated if they are abused. Same policy as 2011.
I don't have a big brother, why do you ask?

If you click on "leave the conversation" it takes it out of your 'inbox', but doesn't delete it. And yet if someone wanted to contact you in one of those left conversations, they still can.

No one, not the mods at least, can see your private conversations except for the person it is addressed to.

No. The 'for sale' threads are closed. No one can respond in those threads. If you want to talk to the OP about his ad you have to either email him or engage him in a private conversation.

On the iPhone or iPad, you click the persons icon. This pulls up their information. Too left is a small envelope. Click on that and you creat a private conversation with the person or persons.
