Nope, PM's are still disabled. However i think they shouldn't be. I wasn't offended at all, spam is the way of how internet works, there is zillions of spam stuff being transfered everywhere, through email, web pages, IM, forums, blogs etc etc...
I don't know what was the reaction of regular Joe's, but first thing i did was to report the "incident" to admin or moderator (in this case it was ALWIL staff, igor if i remember correctly) and then i deleted the spam and forgot about it the very same moment.
It's not like oh my god, only Alwil forum which is even security related has this kind of crap. It can happen anywhere. And it's really shame that this kind of stuff is limiting forum usability just because some users were offended.
Maybe they should add this under "Policy" or FAQ and tell people how it is with spam and how to prevent it without limiting the board functionality. I think reaction like mine is the one that anyone would expect from any normal user.
I also hope Off topic subforum will re-open soon. Not that i posted a lot there but off topic related place is always a good thing. If people can only follow few basic rules...
