In the meantime though, we're missing our Furtopia banner at the top that Mylo created long ago.

Gotta tackle the big stuff (not losing the database) before addressing small details (getting a banner up).

Yeah, yeah, I know. ;)

And........quit talking with your muzzle full. Get the cereal spoon out of your mouth. Bad fox.  :D

For future note there is an option to send you an email when a PM is received that will contain a copy of the sent PM.

How odd. Have you check the spam folder, etc?

This. I noticed a few months back that I wasn't getting forum notification emails. I eventually checked my spam folder, and found they had all suddenly been filtering into there. If they're in there, you can mark them as not spam, and you'll start getting them in your inbox again.

Same here. I have not been getting email notifications for several months when somebody tries to PM me. I don't have a "spam folder", so there's nowhere for them to go.......if I even am getting them.

i get them, at one point all my email notifications vanished for months ( got lbeld as spam) so that was fixed, but another time i had that issue, then it just started working again not too recently ( i think)

also i am a little miffed that i didnt have to delete my pms in the end but i dont blame you guys, i understand.

wait so we didnt need to delete the pms right? cause now im confused. i just tried sending a pm to grey ( is inbox is full) to test it, and it says i cant send. so is it fixed or no? just trying to clear it up/

why not simply eliminate all content dated before Y in the archives?

Because that then defeats the object of archiving all of the data and posts.

Besides, it doesn't matter any more now that the hosting has changed. ^-^

The PM inbox limit is still in place, so if they haven't cleared space, they still will not be able to receive messages.

how will they know to clear space? I have a friend who comes on and we PM each other but he never bothers to read any threads, how can I tell him clear out his inbox when he has his email hidden and doesnt check the forum often?

Um, does anyone know of a way to clear all the messages out of an inbox at once instead of page by page? We kinda have 4900 messages in our inbox that can be deleted, but we were just hoping there might be a faster way of deleting all of them.

Go to your messages and on the left sidebar under Preferences. Click Prune and set it to delete messages that are older than a certain number of days.

If anyone attempts to send you a message they will get a message saying it has not been sent

This wouldn't be a "user has blocked you" message would it? Because that's what I just got when I tried to PM someone.

No, that is for a different thing - It is possible for people to block you from sending PMs to them at all. This will be a message saying that their inbox is full.
