Does this forum have PM feature or will it in the near future?
Sure would be easier to chat with new friends.:)

I don't think it will be implemented anytime soon - we do have at least the option of putting our IM names in the fields so others can contact us via those methods if one chooses.

If this site had PM it would stall out so bad. It all ready does with out PM. They need way bigger servers, but with an unpaid site I do not think they will get them. Just my guess.

They don't need bigger servers, they need at least one redundancy server to run while the databases perform nightly maintenance.
I might have something to donate to them sooner or later.

Pretty close. Again, the boy scout rule applies to servers as well as fires or lights! The more you have the better off you are if they're maintained!

The P.M. feature was being used for nothing more than looking for hook-ups or offering sales. Either way, it was just a pain in the ass for all when somebody got ripped off and then we all got to have the numerous posts on how XXXXXX is a thief. To bad that the few have to wreck it for the majority.
Have a good one!:thumbsup:

I'd bet the PM system also got abused for SPAM purposes.

Actually, when the P.M. system was abolished there wasn't hardly any Spam in here; not like the rash that I've seen within' the last while. Good point though.
I do recall people getting their e-mails spammed because they posted them. LOL, then we'd receive complaints on that with requests to delete their posts, threads.
Have a good one!:thumbsup:
