i know that it can be worked out some where....

how about limiting the use of personal messages untell the user posted a minimum of 1(one) message!

i dont know where i seen it but you needed a post count before you could send out pms..

that might be a idea

i think people should be able to do what ever they wont on this site, no matter how much post they have replied.

What about people who ghost on this site? They are active but they lerk and keep with everything that is going and then send messengers to people? There are quite a number of them from what I can gather.

I can see reasons for and against that idea, for it would reduce the amount of people just signing up and spamming others with pm's as they'd be forced to speak out publicly first. Against it would force people to speak publicly when they may be nervous to or have nothing constructive to say, so the spamming could move from pm's the the board it self.

Ok I thought he said most popular part of the site... guess not but it is up there!

Some people mainly come here to PM. We have over 22,000 PMs sent to date. ;)

This is from June 18th 2007

I sent at least 200 but about the post limit I don't think that would be very fair, it would annoy people and stop them from joining, if that happened back thetn I might not be here.

Hmmm, we know! As long as you are not spamming other members with unwanted pm, brownie....!

I disagree.
There are a lot of people that are sort of "ghosts," that don't enjoy posting messages, but do send PMs. We should not limit them.

I personally have about 150 PMs I sent and recieved so far, and that's more than my post count.

Like it or not - private stuff should be kept to PMs and not posted around the forum. That's called spamming.

I say - leave it as it is. Don't mess with something that works.

I know of many users who have never posted (or only posted once) but are online every day using the PM system. I think the most fair solution is to aggressively report spam.
