What’s with the limiting of private messages?

There has always been a limit on the number of Private Messages a user can initiate within certain timeframes.
This is a necessary feature on pretty much any social network or communication enabled service.
It helps to reduce spam, harassment, and other unwanted behaviors from those who may abuse the private messaging feature.
Account Reputation, Account Age and other metrics (now also, VIP status), factor into the calculation of a user's active messaging quota.
The majority of users (95-99%) may never experiience such limitations.
It should only affect those who start New PM conversations at a higher than normal rate.
