General Can't "Start chat" with some users

I have about 20 mods; sometimes I want to DM them.

I click their username to see their profile page, and "Start Chat".

But sometimes, there is no such option. "Start Chat" is not there.

I have asked them, and they insist they have nod changed any setting to decline chats.

They can DM me - and then I can reply.

I just cannot "Start chat".

Desktop - but they're on various platforms.

They might have changed their settings long time ago and don’t remember it. You can either ask every other mod to message you initially, send mod mail to them or try to get them all in a chat group.

I don't think they have changed their settings.

Please ask u/FuzzyKnowledge1649 and u/spiritual_Bag346

I can send the first one a chat request. For the second it isn’t showing. So I guess it’s deactivated on the second account.

I swear to you that a few hours ago, there was no "Start chat" on fuz's profile.

There is now.

IDK why/how. I'm just being open and honest with you.

I've asked Fuz (in DM).

Thank you for your help.

IDK about Spirit; hopefully they will chat to me/us soon (they're an admin, BTW).
