I've heard about numerous people complaining about how their inbox is filling to fast from private messages. ( Me being one of them )
Some people might think; " Well, it's not hard to just delete them" or " There are other ways of storing important information in private messages " ( But, i've collected some information about this and believe it's a good suggestion )

My proposition would be to increase the size of the 50 message inbox, possibly to 75, or 100. ( Maybe sell inbox increases for forum gold;
which could benefit the site by raising funds[ assuming the proccess is more beneficial than the consequences for increasing inbox size. )

Please post any ideas, comments, concerns, suggestions, etc, or what you voted for any why.

It has been suggested so many times..

I'll say yes again.

Oh, has it?
I looked for threads suggesting this but didn't find any. Wouldn't have made post otherwise.
I'll have to take a better look, but for now will leave this up.

This is for staff members only.
This will not happen.

you can archive messages
so you already have an unlimited inbox

Been suggested.. Will not happen.

[x] No.




From my understanding (from some random post in GH only certain staff have them)

Same thing in mind.

This, first and foremost. I can't imagine having 50 recent/relevant messages that you'd need filling up the inbox; although some people do a lot more volume in trades than me. When I get PMs, I'm on it though, I respond/delete/empty trash. Why save em? if for potential scammer, take a s/s. If a friend, add them. If it was a great message archive it. There's plenty of options. From what I understand, the staff have expanded boxes because they get a ton of wah-wah PMs on a daily basis from all different people, and if for some reason they are unable to answer/clear, that doesn't make people's wah-wah messages any less . As far as members are concerned, if you're getting a lot of messages but can't respond/delete enough of them to allow someone to send you another, most likely you'll be backlogged enough with the trades etc. it'll take to clear the list that half of the people will have found their item/answer/etc somewhere else.

A good idea with the best of intentions, but given proper inbox maintenance it's rendered completely unnecessary for non-staff jspers.

Heh, I love the "it will not happen so I vote no"- posts.

Very insightful.

However, Inbox and saved messages in another folder could have been separated.
