caboose 0 Report post Posted June 17, 2004 I've just emptied my PM inbox and sent items, but its telling me I've still got 9 PM's left. Why? I'm just curious as to why this is happening... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest cobainwasmurdered Report post Posted June 17, 2004 It does that for me too. I just ignore it. I wish we'd always had the option to save and zip to email pm's. All the classic pm's with Alf. "You Suck" No, You Suck" "No, AGNES, Sucks" "Indeed" *sniff* those were the days. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest Dazed Report post Posted June 18, 2004 The ones in your outbox / sent messages folder will count, too. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
spiny norman 0 Report post Posted June 18, 2004 I noticed the same thing too. I think it may be from when banned posters PM you. For example, Eagan PMed me once (pity me). I don't have that massage in my inbox no more, but I never deleted it and it seems to count. I always thought that's what it was. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest FrigidSoul Report post Posted June 20, 2004 That's why I just PMed treble and had him put me over 100 posts again. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Fook Report post Posted June 20, 2004 I noticed yesterday I lost 2500 or so posts. Not that I really care about post counts, but I was wondering why. I thought it had something to do with that thread pruning. Now I know better. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

caboose 0 Report post Posted June 23, 2004 Now on my controls it says I have used eleven messages, while my inbox/sent items says I've used nine. But I still have not used any. I'm not really bothered, but I thought I'd report it nonetheless. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Dazed Report post Posted June 23, 2004 Do you have any messages tracked? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
caboose 0 Report post Posted June 23, 2004 They're gone. It was telling me I had 2 unsent PMs, 7 in my inbox, and 2 in my sent items. I found that I did indeed have two unsent PMs from over a year ago. I deleted them and I was back at nine. But when I went to the inbox and sent items, there was nothing there. I wasn't tracking anything so no go there either. I just hit the 'Empty PM folders' option and it flushed them out whatever they were. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
