Some will find this suggestion useless, but others who know where I'm coming from will find some use in this.
The problem most members face is when members, who have restricted their profile to only their friends, send a request or question via VM. Which of course, you are unable to reply to since that you are not on that person's friend list and therefore you cannot view or send VMs on their profile.
This can become very frustrating; therefore I was wondering if a message could be displayed to the person who is sending a VM with a restricted profile. I do not know if this is possible on vBulletin 4, but I was wondering if a message such as this could be displayed to someone who has a restricted profile when sending a message to a member who is not on their friend's list:

Most members will probably reply to this thread saying ''just send them a friend invite then''. Truth is, most members do not want to be sending out friend requests to everyone whom they want to reply to with restricted profiles; some members such as senseis and staff members are also very busy and do not have time to send out friend requests to be able to reply. A message such as this would avoid the problem in advance.Warning: You have your profile set to 'members of your friends list only'; the member who you are sending the Visitor Message to is not on your friends list; you may not receive a reply from this member.
