If anyone could read them it would be the admins and not the mods, and even then I don't think the admins can at all.

Mods cannot read your PMs at all. However, since they're generally sent in plain text administrators can read them. We don't do it, but it's technically possible. If you want to send messages which can be read only be you and the intended recipient, you should utilize our secure PM functionality.
Peace,

If people are worried about this use the built in PGP function.

Yeah, ya gotta love that "Become This User" button. 
I've been unable to decrypt encrypted PM's... It doesnt seem to accept my passcode and I've tried setting up a new one too. It just won't work.

Supposedly,mods used to be able to.But I've heard that they can not anymore. But I think the Admins can.

No they didn't.. never have been able to. Never will be able to. The only power mods have is to edit/move/lock/sticky posts in the forums they moderate, and issue warnings.
