I've seen this become a huge problem on other boards too, to the extent that people just leave the boards altogether. Frankly, if I am able to enable this feature with an "opt out" function for folks who don't want it, I'll disable it for my profile, because it defeats the purpose of the boards for me to answer someone privately instead of publicly, where everyone else can see the info too. That's the beauty of the boards from my perspective, and I don't want to lessen that. But I know PMs would be welcomed by many others, so I am looking into a way to get this up and running while still keeping things under control.
Thanks artist.
