I'm wondering why GFY doesn't have PM feature enabled.

Is it because it eats up a lot of server resources?
Every board that has them, gets spam through them. With that, I turn off all forum email notifications, I get enough trash mail without 50 forums spamming the piss out of me too.

A few months back I noticed a forum I visit as well had several PM's sitting in it, I went and looked around and noticed I have several board accounts with PM's in them. Half the ones I did check was spam crap.
