No, not a type of "PMS." I was wondering why the NGBBS doesn't have Private Messages like a lot of other forums. Private communication would be nice, and helpful for some sorts of clubs or game threads, and while it's possible to just use email for that sort of thing it seems a lot more intuitive to have a built-in system. Is it a memory issue or what?

Nah, the final secret is much more worthwhile.

That's because you're not a mod or admin. =P

probably be a good idea to keep out threads between just two people. it would also help that person get the last word in =P cuz you can only post 5 time per thread per 30 min or something like that. all in all i think it would be a good idea.

Because the group of 15 + isn't that large, so wouldn't take that much bandwith.

Plus, you 15 minus people would abuse it.

liljim is working on it. It should be done sometime soon is what I last heard, otherwise there's no other information other than it sounds like it's UBER awesome.

I'm also quite sure the Newgrounds PMs will be thousands of times better than any of the other PM systems.

I don't think so .... or yes maby alot of n00b would but the administrators should make restrictions..... Being over L.15 don't make anybody more mature.

Why don't the admins and such just openly admit that it's only open to over 15's? (Assuming that's true). I mean, they may get a few (thousand) angry emails, but they shouldn't have to keep it secret. THEY SHOULDN'T BE THE NEW ILLUMINATE!
