I miss the old forum software. The Private Message system flowed easily. I remember having to export the messages and purging them regularly because I was always filling up the quota.

This new PM system is just too much work to use. I have maybe received 3 messages ever since we switched to vB.

Anybody here experience a similar avoidance of PM usage?

I figured I should give it another shot. PM me. Let's talk. About stuff.

All my PMs are mods getting butt hurt because of some menial text I posted on the internet that really no one will see.

Yeah, I think people ignore it. You know that user crazypraveen...the one that says he graduated from Purdue with a low GPA and wanted to do power distribution....well, I have been trying to contact him about a position. I tried 3 months ago, nothing. Then, the recuiter called me last week and asked if that person was still available because they desperately need someone...I tried to PM him again...nothing. Oh well... So, there you have it, Anandtech PM prevents people from getting good opportunities ;)

I met a lot of people doing fs/ft who hated the fusetalk pm system here. They would ask me to PM them on another forum.

I just came back to find 1037 unread PM's. Wow that was a little unexpected. :eek:

But they all came from 1 member. :hmm:

Mainly use PMs for the FS/FT forums. Still can't figure out how to see my sent items with this new system.

YHPM! ;-)

My 1st PM was from a mod.:eek: Damn things scare the crap out of me.

well, stop being a troublemaker, you troublemaker!

;)

my first pm was from a person who thought i was someone else entirely. i ended up making a new friend tho, so it all worked out. :)
