I could go either way with reinstating PMs. Having PMs brought a lot of intrigue and definitely made the game more fun for me. Not having them does make it a more balanced way to play though. I honestly haven't enjoyed the multiple special roles and am glad we haven't been playing that way in awhile.
Yes.
A lot of vetting and intrigue happened in the PMs. Honestly, some of our best game moments happened in the PMs. It adds another dimension to the game. It adds ways to lie and deceive and to figure out who is engaging in that behavior. And it's not just the mafia doing cloak and dagger in the PMs, the townies have to engage in it too to help to get relevant information or lay traps. In the most elaborate games it turns into a hunter-killer genre game.
A big part of the PM shadow game is all about compartmentalization and INFOSEC.
But gameplay aside, it's great for socializing. You get to know your fellow posters better by playing on teams with them. I thought that had more value than the game itself.
I hadn't thought about it but you're right. Your gameplay was less spazzy after we got rid of PMs.
The cop thread @JayKay PE is mentioning is called the "townie thread". And mafia have gotten into the thread on multiple occasions.

do the rounds ever stop?Oh have we started another round already?
You had one earlier this year where you lived to the end! I protected you on what should have been the last night to ensure your survival... we uhh wound up playing another two days until we voted out that last mafia. And I think you won as a JOAT once. Speaking of which,
you certainly don't flail when playing the cop. That's when you march around with a set of 50 lb brass-ones successfully imposing your will on the thread.

Who is in?

Count me in
I'm in.
I'm cool with PMs. The only thing I don't like about the PMs is that by the end of the game, everything is happening in PM and the main thread is dead. Makes it boring if you're not part of the "Confirmed townie" or "mafia" PMs.
My personal preference. I like variety. Every mod should get to specify their rules. Just my 2 cents.

I'm really not a good writer. But I'm an ok story-teller. (I don't know if that counts as a creative pursuit.) Coming up with a story is hard for me. But if I have a story already. I can put together the words to make it very interesting.
