Restating the title because it seems to be cut off for me.
Ever had a PalPad message from someone and tried to reply only to find out that they have their PalPad set to FL-only? Why would they send you a message if you can't reply? :(
More often than not, it's an honest mistake and the other person just probably missed the fact that you weren't in their FL and/or that they've set the PalPad to FL-only.
So my suggestion is to have a Pop-up alert for the sender of the message, saying that the other person wouldn't be able to reply. This should ideally happen while the text is still in the text field, just so they have the opportunity to copy and paste it into a PM.
Whether the sender would still be able to send the message or be disallowed from doing so is up for discussion. I'm open to opinions. ^^

I once saw a feed of someone looking for help with something and I commented on the feed regarding it. But when they later PalPadded me (saying that they no longer needed that help), and I tried to reply, it put me off so much because I spent 5 minutes on trying to come up with a reply and the reply was just lost to the void because I wasn't in their Friendslist.
And it's even worse when I can't remember what I typed, so I cannot even PM them the ideal response I came up with. Dx — That reminds me, this should ideally happen while the text is still in the text field, just so they have the opportunity to copy and paste it into a PM.

i've forgotten i had set my paldpad to friendlist only and sent out a palpad before because the other person said they hated pms, just to get a pm back because they couldn't reply via palpad after all
which was very annoying for everyone involved!
on the topic of if you should still be able to send the message: i think you should, in case you don't want to pm for something minor that doesn't need a reply (as you unfortunately can't delete pms, but can remove palpalds)
but an alert for you sending a message with the other not being able to reply would be very helpful (as well as like some red text in the palpad field that tells you you can't reply to this conversation before you type out your message for the other person - so that both people are warned about this!)
(maybe make the popup appear before you typed out your whole message too, or make it also be some red text in the palpad field saying the other person can't reply, so you can see it before typing out a message)

Happened to me few times and I got not only annoyed, but also nervous if the person will think I am ignoring them

I really like that the message will pop up before sending the message, so we can copy and paste it!
