This is probably a retarded question, but why don't you copy your treasured PMs into a word file and save them permanently in that form? That's what I do with emails and PMs that I want to keep around.

I just checked the board settings for PMs and I couldn't find a field specifying the number of PMs one can max out. And there's not many options to begin with, so I doubt Jason and I both overlooked it. Sorry, TR

Copying them will have to work if this cant be upped, Shadow. But I am reluctant because I can't just copy and paste the whole thing. It saves all the signature crap and the PM/WWW/Profile text and all that nonsense. I can chop it up if I have to (which it looks like I will)... but thought I would check to make sure first.

Believe me, if there was a way to change it, I would have done it.
Back in the day, I had tons of PM traffic and it drove me crazy trying to keep enough space open. And then people would start threads saying "Mandard, your PM box is full!" and I'm like "thank you, but I can easily discover that on my own and always immediately make room as soon as I see it, LOSERS."

Brad, got the same problem as you man. (If using a PC) Instead of Copy/Pasting it, I just right click and 'save target as' into a folder and rename the file. That way it remains intact as an Internet window thing and looks just like it does now.

I have a question: Can Admin's and Mod's see PM's sent/received by anyone to other people?
That would be an interesting feature for them, wouldn't you say?

Nah. The only way anyone can see your PM's is if they were actually logged in as you.

As shocking as it might be, Bane speaks the truth. Right Click and Save Target on the PM's link in your profile and you will save the PM to your drive. Nifty.
