Twilight is upon me, and soon night must fall.

I use it to send myself reminders, drafts of things to finish posting and other little bits of info I want to keep private enough not to post it in a forum, but avoid the hassle of emailing it.

Isn't that what the notes thing is for?

I use notes for something more permanant myself. I use pms for things I intend to post shortly but am not yet ready to do. Sometimes I use it for quick reminders of what I want to do that day.

I'm sure others have their own uses for sending a pm to themselves.

Why not?

It doesn't cause any problems or anything, so why should Brandon spend time blocking that if he could be doing something more usefull? :)

If I recall correctly ZB originally did not allow it but people requested it. Since it is harmless either way it seemed reasonable to allow.

It stops you feeling lonely when no one wants to PM you. :)

Plus as said, it causes no harm and some people find it useful.
