Full inboxes
I've just seen a post here where somebody said they'd tried to private message another user but their inbox was full. The latter user replied that they didn't know their inbox was full until the former one told them. I had this problem before when I tried to private message somebody and got the full inbox message.
What's the maximum messages it can store? I was considering starting a thread somewhere to let people know about this as it seems quite a few people aren't aware of it but I'm not sure where would be the best place to do that?Last edited by Biggus; 2022-05-27 at 11:29 AM. Reason: clarity/typo

Re: Full inboxes
I believe it's 100 messages (in total-so count the inbox and outbox) for normal members.
I have a LOT of Homebrew!

Re: Full inboxes
There's literally a colour-coded bar for this at the bottom of the Private Messages thing! (And yes, the total capacity for everything stored, whether it is sent or received, is a flat 100 for mere mortals.)

Re: Full inboxes
Well, you can put it in your signature with big flaming letters and the works, urging others to do the same, but unless you wish to petition the admins to redesign that section of the page, that's about the most you can do short of going around PMing people with something performed to the tune of "do you have a minute or two to talk about the size of your inbox".

Re: Full inboxes
Sheriff: I think the original question in this thread has been well-answered. As for this second question, if you PM with someone frequently (such as in an ongoing play-by-post game or homebrew project) remind them there's a cap and to keep their inboxes reasonably clean. As a GM of a PbP game, maybe remind players from time to time.
