I think there should be something on here similar to what friends reunited do, where you pay a small yearly fee to be able to message usernames directly as a communication service, like a seperate private message area or something similar and let the paid member have profiles that can only be seen by other paid members
yeah I use msn a lot, but on here sometimes you wish you could just click a button to send a direct message to the username, you can only add someone to msn if they give their addy to you and they might not want to broadcast their msn details out for all n sundry on an answer reply.
