One of the more noticeable changes with the latest forum software update is the rather stilted term "Conversations" is now called "Direct Messages". "Conversations" was the XenForo equivalent of vBulletin’s "Private Messages". Direct Messages is a more accurate term than Private Messages which could be incorrectly interpreted as having some degree of secure messaging.
