First, if you are not familiar with the issue we had of Spam through Private Messages, please read regarding Private Messages,
Upgrading Forum Software, and regarding Spam,
Marlin Crawler Online Forum and Spammers.
I have made some minor changes to the Private Messaging System that affects new members. I have removed the restriction and have setup different limitations to help prevent new members from abusing the PM system.
I am very happy that new members may once again access and send private messages, and I hope this has come as a relief to many.
