Title: Petition: Increase Inbox Limit for Members
dalawman - July 18, 2007 06:11 PM (GMT)
Today I log on, to find that my Inbox is full...something that hasn't happened before.
But I have no new messages since I demoted myself.
The conclusion for me was that members have less storage than higher positions, meaning anybody who drops a rank, like me, cannot get new messages. There is no warning telling you your inbox is full...you need to check for yourself. While this isn't horrible, some people rely a lot on the PM system, and missing messages can mean missing out on forum passwords or other important things.
So why not increase the inbox of members to infinite? The reason you wouldn't, is that it takes up more space, and there are a lot of members. This space could possibly add up. As far as I'm aware, it doesn't take up much room, but who knows? So that is why I gave options to increase it by a bit....it won't completely solve the problem but it would remedy it a bit.
Of course, if member inboxs are increased by a certain ammount, all higher inboxs will also be increased by the same ammount or more.

It does need more than fifty, but I don't know about infinite.
(In before "Holy hax Dalaw's on!")

Maybe 100+ I dunno about infinite, it may take a lot of space.

The error returned was:
That member's Personal Messenger box is full and is unable to accept any new messages. |
>_< Dalaw, has the "you know what" mail reached you yet?
dalawman - July 18, 2007 06:34 PM (GMT)
Nope....even after emptying my messages it still says full...
So 160 messages lost for nothing :[
And some of those actually had important stuff.

I'd say 50 more is enough.

Just for reference, they currently have 50 messages. I kind of broke my inbox as I had 160 when I became one <_<.

So, any luck with the inbox now that your Admin spork is returned?

Try resending...now it actually says Inbox (0).
