Are members using and pleased with the new private messaging option on this board?

It has been in place for a couple months so I figured that folks have tested it out by now if you are interested. It is very easy to use, just like the one we have on the forum.
A potential benefit of having it available is being able to communicate with another poster privately without needing a third party to forward messages or having to offer personal email addresses if privacy is preferred.
It can be used to contact one another or to contact mods without sharing email addys for those who'd rather not.
FYI: The notification that you have a message is the bolded, extra large font used. Otherwise, the font used is the same size as other options offered. There are some who've never responded to messages sent to test it out when I first put it in place so I wondered if everyone knew it was available?
As always, if anyone is being harassed or abused, please let me know right away so it can be stopped... Not that I expect anyone here would ever do that, but you just never know, so speak up if there's ever ANY problems with it.
