PM Box Full Warning

[AndyP]

I was sick of not getting warnings about how full the PM box was until it was actually full and someone tries to send you a message. It is one of the few things that the old phpBB forum did better.

I've now created a message, which you may or may not see above, that will only be visible if your PM box is 95% full, that is, it only has space for 10 more messages. This seems to be an appropriate amount to me, but if it's not, let me know.

It's a bit intrusive, but it's meant to be.

good. thanks.

[Jarro]

How the heck do you people let your inbox get so full anyway ??

Doesn't it hold something like 200 messages ?

A bit of regular housekeeping people

[AndyP]

But every message I receive is so important; it's hard to delete them.

[Daves]

Seems to be working. I deleted a few to get below 95% and now its gone.

[MegaWatty]

Nice work.

[oncewasagolfer]

Yeah good idea

[kpac]

Hate it. It looks like it's yelling at me, and that hurts my feelings.

Cheers P!

You need some more friends . . . no one is talking to you.

I reckon we can get rid of PM's, the other forum doesn't use them ....

[Dotty]

Is this automated?

Or does it rely on Just counting up the number of PMs in everyone's folders?

Hi Andy
The forum has too many mods can you get rid of a few?

More importantly and the purpose of this post:
Can we have a feature which shows who is sending who PM's?

Not the content, 'cause, you know, that's like private and stuff, just who is sending who a PM and other PM stats.

Cheers
Just

It was the first part of the modifications to PM's Andy and I talked about. Via PM.

A guru in HTML could easily make it look a bit prettier. I've just done a rough job from looking up some HTML code.

[Yossarian]

I almost want a full PM box to see what this looks like.

Queue operation "spam Yoss with Beth Ditto pics"

[kingslayer33]

Geez Eldrick. That would be harsh on poor young Yoss.

I had to google Beth Ditto and the wiki page that came up first had a fairly average photo. for those like me who have no idea who she is don't bother googling her just take it as read that she is seriously bad. now to go find some acid to wash my eyes out and try and get all the way to the retinas too if I'm lucky.

[MegaWatty]

Henno likes her.

[AndyP]

The unofficial forum rule is that if you mention Ditto, a picture must be posted.

I'd motorboat them, if only just so I can say I did.

[PeteyD]

Oh yea, more like chuggy old diesel junk than motorboat.

[sms316]

I would have pictured you as a rusty trombone kind of guy.

[timah!]

It'd certainly be easy to ride the waves...

[Eldrick]

AP has done us all a favor
there are plenty of worse photos he could have used

[AndyP]

I couldn't bring myself to see those in a larger size than a thumbnail.
