I had it installed once but it was for staff only. That way everything to do with the forum is on the board. :)

Potentially a horrible idea.

1. Most users will never actually use it and it'll just waste your time setting it up.
2. Potential for disaster is high . They could use this as a means of spamming which could cost you a small fortune in costs.
3. The could easily trick other members into thinking they are some how an offical at the forum and get them to release sensitive information.

9/10 the risks far outweigh any benefit of doing such a thing for your members.

Absolutely not!

They could ruin your websites reputation. There are just too many problems that could arise. I suggest only giving to trusted staff members.
