Question about PM messages

Post by hyelakingsfan »

What happens when it gets full?

Say my SENTBOX folder is at 100%, does that mean that the next couple of PM's arent going to get through until i delete the others? Same with the others too. If my INBOX is full, does that mean that no other PM's are going to come?

We experimented with this earlier. :)

If your inbox gets full and someone sends a PM to you, the newer PM will bump off the oldest PM in your inbox. So if you don't want to lose the info from your oldest PMs I'd suggest saving them to a folder like I do.

We didn't experiment with the sendbox, but I would guess that new PMs sent by you would bump off the oldest send PMs.

Is there a way to create a new folder? My save folder is almost full as well and I'm just flat out running out of space. I like to save some of the PM's I get as future reference, and I've already gone through and deleted irrelevant ones. I'm down to what I really want to keep, but running out of a place to put it. :(

The way I save my PMs is this:

1. I go to my message box.
2. I place my mouse pointer over the link to the PM I want to save.
3. I click my left mouse button and choose "save target as".
4. I save the html document to the Anime Beta folder I created.

I have an Anime Beta PMs folder and in that folder I have a "In Box" folder and a "Sent Box" folder. I save the messages by date, name of the person and slight description of its contents such as:

"from sakamoto 02122007 YJ seller links"

How do you like my message box at my message box ?

1. A robot may not injure a human being, or, through inaction, allow a human being to come to harm.
2. A robot must obey the orders given it by human beings except where such orders would conflict with the First Law.
3. A robot must protect its own existence as long as such protection does not conflict with the First or Second Law.
