PM messages!

As we are limited to only retaining 50 PMs I thought it may be a good idea to have this thread so we can remind people, when we can't send any more PMs to them.

We could just send a note saying " Please check your list as I can't send you a message"

They could then reply "Done"

I am sending this message to Muddy.... who often forgets to empty hers, but I am sure she isn't the only one!

I hope they will get the reminder when it appears as a new post.

Re: PM messages!

I think it’s a good idea the way they are limited for new posters on here as on other forums I have seen them used to threaten and intimidate people, the right to send and receive them should be earned rather than a given

Ffosse you will be able to send them before Christmas so just be patient for another 4 weeks.

DWebb I believe the idea of waiting 3 months is to discourage scammers, and it seems to work! Once you can send them, you can send friendly messages to other members.... but I wouldn't recommend sending nasty ones or bans occur!

Anyway the point of this thread is to enable people to let their friends know that their PM list is full..... so other messages should be posted on another thread. Thank you.

Hi

A very simple solution, subscribe and get unlimited.

It costs peanuts and keeps the site going.

I agree Swimmy, it gives unlimited PM space and dumps all of the adverts too. Worth every penny of 50p a week...

I don't even know how to subscribe?
What is the advantage?


Twink, I know what you mean by this idea, but if someone does not even know their message box is full, do you think they will think to look in here to check?

Re: PM messages!

May I ask if there is a way of blocking unwanted PMs?
