Yeah, mass PM delete would be nice. I’ve got 40 pages of PMs, too many to delete manually.
Also, Bjarne. Sent PMs should at least be deleted automatically after a certain amount of time.

I don’t think they should be forced to be deleted. Personally, there might be some messages I want to keep that are fairly old, that also might be deleted after a time. I’d rather the mass delete button (like the moderator delete scheme) than an auto-delete after a certain date.
EDIT: Then again, 104 pages of PM’s isn’t exactly appealing to delete even with that feature. o.o

It can be remedied...
Bjarne would just have to give us an option on how many PMs to view on one page.
10
20
50
100
All
That with the Mass Delete function would make it a lot easier, given that he gives us a “Select All” and “Select None” option.

Or not even go that far and simply have an “empty PM box” option. Though changing how many messages are viewed at once is also handy regardless.

Yeah, a delete all button would be nice, but then.. As you said, it doesn’t allow us to pick and choose which PMs we want to keep.
And while we’re talking about PMs, Bjarne. Something that has bothered me for a LONG time with them is the fact that what is shown is the first bits of what is in the PM. I think that PMs should run on the same script as topic creation, in that we can have a PM topic name to quickly describe what the PM is about instead of viewing the first bits of a PM.

i definately think that should be optional
some of those pms i have are quite old
but i would like to keep them, kinda, personal memory type of thing
so yeah
i agree with others, maybe a mass delete button or quick way to choose them
but automaticly
im not so sure...

Well, the idea was just for sent messages. The messages you received wouldn’t be deleted automatically. Only the ones in your sent folder. You know? So you shouldn’t be losing any person messages? It’s what Myspace does. lol

why don’t we just have it so we can hit a button on a pm that says “save”, and that puts it in a different folder. you can do a mass clear of all non-saved pms, or you can deleat saved (or not saved) pms one by one.

No, because we’re still having trouble with people having large signatures.
That reminds me of another idea. Couldn’t we also have a certain limit to how big certain pics in our sig settings should be? Like our avatars, they have a size limit.

We add pictures through bbcode, not uploading like in our avi. There’s no real way to limit the size.

Well, it was just a suggestion. It sounded like a good idea.

I’m not trying to put you down, just thought I’d explain why you couldn’t do it.. Unless ofcourse you made the actual signature box a certain size, so it wouldn’t stretch if you had a bigger image, but that would make alot of people angry, considering how it would distort the picture.

I know. That’s what I was kind of trying to say, but you are right. Not everyone will like it.
