private message limits

[apollo]

10 is kinda umm , i dunno ,skimpy , even 20 would be a little better -_- , i say this cuz ive already tried to reach someone whos probably met their limit without realizing it

many would agree with you. perhaps the admins are working on this.
i guess everyone is asking
is there a possiblility that the number of pm's will be increased?

I think you gotta pay $ for more PM's

10 seems extremely small...I could get that # before the next time I logged in and never knew what I missed...

I agree that 10 seems like to few as I have tried to send some message and they are not getting through. BUT, what I think is weird is the limit of "smiles" that you can use in one post. I added three clapping hands and got a error message. Also, while it saids that I have access to some of the forums, I don't at all.
Its just bugs that will work themselves out eventually. Its a great board and there are a lot of improvements over the old one.

I don't get it... I thought from Perry's post, if you pay to become a supported member it entitles you to more PM space:

A special category of membership has been created to give supporting members additional features such as Extra PM space, an area in our new photo gallery, access to special forums, ability to maintain a personal blog/calendar and also have their name displayed in bold lettering when logged in.

But by the looks of it J-Jo, as a supported member you don't have this yet right?

ticklish one,
yes i do have space for many pm's. i was just stating the feelings of most of the journalers that i talk to. for them, 10 messeages per box (totat of 20) is not enough.

[tickletussler]

OH... I don't even have that much space J-Jo - for me it's a TOTAL of 10 ie if I have 4 in my sentbox and 6 in my inbox it tells me it's full I started keeping copies of the sent PMs because some of the others were saying they weren't getting my PMs and I had to send it on again.

[apollo]

i think its 10 total ....... and both inbox and outbox count towards this total , i have to keep cleaning out my message box and i BARELY use this feature , i feel bad for people who talk to alot of different members

most boards im on give hundreds of stored pm's , i wonder why admins here are only giving us 10 , it doesnt seem enough especially since alot of peope form friendships and such with fellow community members

well , something for the admins to think about , i was planning on donating to the board but not for the pm space , just cause it helps so many people , me included

[Perry]

I also think the 10 limit (default of the board) is a bit low but there are reasons why we kept the default at that level initially.

We'll just add it to the list of options we need to tweak.

I really hope this is something that is changed. I dont PM all that much but run out of room all the time.

Would hate to be someone who used it constantly.

Thank you for taking the time to consider this.
