MMOs don't allow spammers to simultaneously access the entire userbase at a time. Users are spread across regions and servers. this means users can only spam users on that server which is inefficient. Also you can't phish users via that method since text isn't generally linkable in in-game chat for MMOs.
Spammers just create new accounts, you can't block potentially thousands of users for a single spammer.
DIfferent environments have different problems. Steam accounts are free. This means it's like email in terms of accessabitly to user population, and cost to spam users. Even most IM systems don't allow you to message people you don't know anymore.
Really, I do not want to add to my contacts every person that I'd like to send a message to. This would increase sociability within Steam.
Tell that to the phishers posting all those links in the forums and in chat. Nothing happens to them, they just create more and keep spamming. This would increase the amount seen quite a bit.
Look at MMOs with their private message feature. Tons of gold selling spam and account stealing links.
What we have right now is good. It is controlled and not a random message being sent out and/or easy to ignore. Messages are from friends and group members, spam is minimal and easy to deal with. Add the PM system, anyone can message anyone else. With over 60m users, that is a huge market form for phishing/illegal/scam sites. One that can not be moderated.
If people still fall for phishing attempts such as "click link, enter password e-mail credit card info n get game:)" then making it harder to communicate with people on the network by not having such a simple mechanic is but dodging the actual problem.
My problem now is that I think I found someone on steam I used to play with a while back, but I have no way of sending them a message asking, "Hey, did you play on Server ABC in Game XYZ a few years back?" Instead, my only option is to just send them a friend request with absolutely no message attached which of course just looks suspicous to them as I can't identify who am I am why I've sent an invite.
I'm sorry, but the the idea of attaching a message to a simple Friend Request is just something extremely basic that should already be available. There are so many many other programs that have this. But yes, in the name of anti-phishing / scamming you can just about shut down every aspect of social interaction on the internet.
