PM Box

Minoc · #1 11-07-2006, 12:45 AM

A 70 messages capacity is hardly enough for 5 years of membership, it'd be nice to have it increased a bit.

Why would you need to have more then that? Save them on your computer if you want to charish the moment.

Admins · #6 11-07-2006, 02:26 AM

I need to delete some thousands of mine all few months, but I can store 5000 PMs :o Didn't know there is a lower limit for other people

Haha, you set the amount under the usergroups btw.

It's cause you're a cool global staffer

Well, it's actually what Kuji said, it has to do with the value set for each usergroup.

Anyway, like I said, store them on your computer. Not that hard to copy and paste.

konidias · #10 11-07-2006, 04:35 AM

Sure you can store them. (I've done it) They have a nifty feature that lets you do so..

But it would be better if it was extended... It's not like the server is going to have a heart attack if people can store a couple dozen more messages or something

ryu_no_bishie · #11 11-07-2006, 04:40 AM

hmm 70s a little stingy anyway most forums have 100, i dont really care though, my pm box is usualy this hallow box for birds to nest in.

KuJi · #12 11-07-2006, 04:50 AM

My PM Box is full of Darlene infractions and Ibonic telling me I am in trouble but the first line saying <3 =o.

Though I got Ibonic back today

Chris · #13 11-07-2006, 04:59 AM

I had to delete like 10-15 of them from back in 2001-2002. Mostly of Psyker PMing random crap.

Ragnarok_Returns · #14 11-07-2006, 06:47 AM

A small increase or a large one?

Ibonic · #15 11-07-2006, 06:39 PM

I'd raise it, but I don't think it's my call.

I know Stefan and unixmad get more than me, but right now I have around a thousand and I delete some of them regularly too

Only admins can have that many, I believe.

It's not hard to save them if needed, I did it all the time when I was supermod, and even now but not so often.

Minoc · #17 11-15-2006, 07:00 PM

200?

Crono · #18 11-15-2006, 07:11 PM

i have to delete mine alot

Skyld · #19 11-15-2006, 08:20 PM

Hm, I have a 512 message capacity. It seems to increase with administration/moderation rights!

Nah, they just like you

Yes, I agree they must. Serious: I think globals gets more space to store. I have the half of Skyld's space.

excaliber7388 · #22 11-15-2006, 09:36 PM

I guess the logic behind it is hat you guys are more in the public's eye, and may receive more PMs

I created pluffy, I should get a 30 total upgrade due to the amount of I LUV U CRONO and I LUV PLUFFY PMs I get.

-Ching · #24 11-15-2006, 11:06 PM

70 is enough, it means the annoying mods cant PM you if you keep your inbox full

Yen · #25 11-15-2006, 11:23 PM

If Skyld has 512 and Sam has half of that, then Sam has 256.
Why don't we have 128? Or 64? Why 70? Shouldn't Stefan have 1024? 2048? 4096?

Poor Sam.

Tyrial · #28 11-16-2006, 01:29 AM

My inbox is 94% full

I want more space but i'm far to lazy to save or delete them.. =/ I'll let them stay where they are...

Doom for the creator of this forum!

Click the checkbox. Save them. Its that easy, takes less time then it does to type your message.

Stop complaining about it, who cares...

Who cares? Dunno, next time ask me if I care if anyone else care because I don't.

Replace X with anything possible.

You're just lying to mask the sorrow. It's alright, I feel your pain.

Minoc · #34 01-13-2007, 09:53 AM

I'm running out of messages to delete. :[

Draenin · #35 01-13-2007, 10:58 AM

I would like a PM box for in-game PMs, but that'll never happen. Still, it would be cool to be able to open up a blank PM window where you can type messages to users who are even offline, so that they can get them later. After a week or so, they'd vanish, so as not to create a lot of buildup.

Tyhm · #36 01-13-2007, 11:47 AM

*shrugs* Easy enough to do on each PW once it's moved from hardcoded to scripted. They could even script it into mailboxes and postal service or whatever.

Minoc · #37 01-13-2007, 12:03 PM

Newmain had that, but its interface was pretty lousy.

Just make a mail system or similar scripted. Let players have an inbox of say 5 messages.

Well, it wouldn't be a server-specific system, though. It would sort of be like sending global messages from server to server, but in the same PM system we have now. Sometimes, when someone PMs oyu and they log off, you can still read what they sent to you. It would be the same basic concept, but in reverse.

Devil · #40 01-13-2007, 02:06 PM

Who needs that many PM's to be quite honest, it's the current enough? :/
