oh geez lol.  Wouldn't a more professional and polite automated response be more like...this:  "Sorry, only subscribed members are able to send messages.  Please subscribe if you wish to send messages to other members."   Rather than "You are not allowed to send personal messages."  It's like a child being scorned for something they did wrong.

Probably not a configurable option in the forum software.
