Prune your PMs NOW

I am going to lower the limit of PM quota for members from 250 to 100.

The database has 186,000 PMs in the sytem. I believe about 500+ PMs per day get sent. It's 110MB in the database. That's not terrible but certainly we can trim that down.

I am giving fair warning that your PMs won't work to recieve if you have your box full and if you have more than 100 then it's going to be full once I make the change.

Expect the change within 48 hours. I just wanted to give some advance notice so users can empty their trash folders.

No changes will be made to HF l33t accounts which have a 1500 total box.
could you make something that you can save the pm's with all data to your local hardderive.
for if you got more than 100 pm's with usefull information.
it will save your database even more because then you can limit it even further down.
Mybb already allows you to export your PMs.

I guess I should have mentioned that.
okay didnt know that😊
thanks for the quick response
Would there be a way for you to delete all the PM's off accounts that havent been activated in X amount of months or something.

Oh man, why take out the PM's? It's only 110mb as you said. Your just pushing it so more people will subscribe.. Damn.

So even if that's true, why not 😅
well i would bring it down that far from 250 to 100 is there any way you can keep it up a little higher

Exactly!
Anyway I will delete some of my PMs that I dont really need to keep in my inbox and I suggess everyone to do that, why just have them there, you dont need them and it would just be a nice thing to do when you have the time.

agreed
you all need to think about the fact omni is trying to make a living out of this(and other) website.
if he wasnt this whole site shouldnt exist.
so he must try to make the leet as good as possible to have a breakfast evry day.
and believe me if your wanna make money you should be a professor or something.
because omni is trying hard to make this site as good as possible and up as best as he can.
Or if you're feeling all sentimental, you can export then delete, lol.
Just emptied my 1200 pms
