Question about max private messages

[Alucard-]

My private messages went to the max 125 and I'm wondering if that is why I haven't been getting replies from people when it said they read the message. SHould I go and resend the pm's??

Once your box is full you can't get new messages.

Remember that your outbox messages count against your total.

why dont you just delete some of the 125 msgs u have ?

Ryan clearly indicated that once you reach 125 you're maxed out!

Remember that your outbox messages count against your total.

This is very important and I think many people don't realize this. There is a drop down box that says 'inbox' if you click on it you can select 'sent items'. Go to sent items and clear that out.

In that case, can we have the RFD forum send us (the user) the 125th message/notice once it reaches 124 PMs? Just a small touch up to the forum to make it nicer.

good idea. ... would be nice

On the top right of every page it should say how many PMs you have so I don't think any more notice is really that necessary.

Does anyone else find it strange that PMs received from the last forum system don't count in vBulletin? I have 61 PMs, 19 that I received in the past couple of months. Although it acknowledges that I have 61 PMs, it only counts the recent 19 towards my quota.

Was this a bug from the transfer? Not that I'm complaining

Inbox contains 61 messages.
You have 19 messages stored, of a total 125 allowed.

Yes, it's a bug, but even though it doesn't count them officially, I can't remember if it'll stop you from receiving PMs once you when you truly hit the 125 target.

how about if the top right PM counter == 125, then have it in red (rather than the current black) or maybe flashing...hum?

e.g. Total: 125

I like the idea of having it bold and/or red. I agree with derek, no need for separate notices, I get emails every time I get a PM, thats enough for me. I spend 10-15 minues a day deleting these emails, I dont need more !
