SteveDrum both anon posting and PM are plugins.

I don’t see why they should be built in, I for one don’t like them on my forums and it bloats the code.

Until 1.0 there was a problem with anon posting because there was no place to store post meta, but now the general bb_meta table can be used. So maybe one day it will have it built in but not likely 1.0
