Features to add to the website. PMs/Comments/Conversations

1. Private messages to other forum users. These are immensely helpful on sites like FFXIVCore.com for organizing threads or gaining insight and feedback.

2. Allow comments to be placed on profiles, perhaps through threads the profile's owner has started or added to. I doubt we'll see much by means of bashing, etc, on these forums anyways, and that too can be solved by a simple comment approval check. These help other users of like mind on the forum see what thoughts are currently in circulation around the forums.

3. Allow private messages to be organized into archived conversations, stored on the profiles. This is mere text we're talking about. It'd not going to take up much space, but it can be very useful for recording the processes involved in group project work, the lack of which may heavily reduce the thoroughness of suggestions given on the forum.

I feel these will be conducive to creating a more... I don't want to say "professional", but the idea is similar... use of the forums. Though most posts really should be there to discuss current issues or the problems therein, the ones that become suggestions should be thorough. However, thoroughness is a large undertaking, and often hard to motivate oneself towards, especially when it comes to noticing its flaws and adjusting accordingly, and would be aided heavily by better website functionality for working as a team.
