Does anyone use private messages?

Sim_One · Sep 15, 2002, 09:12 PM

So far I have not PM'ed anybody nor have gotten any PM's myself...maybe it's because nobody likes me?

Do you use PM?

Alcibiaties of Athenae · Sep 15, 2002, 09:24 PM

Constantly.

I have to clean mine out almost daily sometimes.

Ohwell · Sep 15, 2002, 09:27 PM

I used to get alot of PM's, now I am ecstatic if I get one...

BTW AoA I bet alot of yours are people complaining about OT, am I right

eyrei · Sep 15, 2002, 10:02 PM

I didn't get many pms until I became involved in the Demogame, and then I got quite a few. Speaking of which, I need to clean out my box...

gonzo_for_civ · Sep 15, 2002, 10:46 PM

Since we got pm downloads I have 426 messages d/loaded onto my comp...exactly.. And 40+ more in my pm thingy right now i think...depending on how long it's been since I cleaned it last.

Octavian X · Sep 15, 2002, 10:54 PM

Considering the fact that I could be considered a neat freak, I clear out mine almost every day.

Lucky.

Mine's more like bi-weekly.

I don't get any complaints being a chat-op...
Guess I have use the ban button more often.

BCLG100 · Sep 15, 2002, 11:03 PM

i get PMs every now and then normally to do with the demogame and where ive messed up

but i normally have to clear mine out ..... well ive only had to do it once

Ren · Sep 15, 2002, 11:52 PM

Occasionally. I think there are about 10 in there right now, haven't got or sent one for a couple of months...

Simon Darkshade · Sep 16, 2002, 01:19 AM

One has a few interesting correspondences going on with fellow practitioners of evil.

Zwelgje · Sep 16, 2002, 02:36 AM

I don't get a lot or send many PMs but they are nice every now and then, especially in demo-game.

Lefty Scaevola · Sep 16, 2002, 05:54 AM

All be sure that you check for and read PMs from the moderators. The penalty for not reading your moderation messages is the same for disobeying them.

No, less then 2% are complaints, most are questions about all kinds of things, requests, people asking if it's OK to post certain material, that kind of thing.

floppa21 · Sep 16, 2002, 06:23 AM

That is somewhat disappointing to hear AOA, but then I guess it is good in that people know what up now and realize you aren't the "evil bastion mod" or "evil bastard mod" some thought.

Chieftess, you got it! Use that ban button! Don't become the second Gonz!

My personal pms mostly consist of receiving threats and giving out my credit card information...

I don't understand why they keep asking...

Alcibiaties of Athenae · Sep 16, 2002, 08:31 AM

Padma · Sep 16, 2002, 09:02 AM

I don't get a huge amount, but I do use it. Like I say in my sig, I prefer PM to email, at least for CFC-related thiings.

Wolfe Tone · Sep 16, 2002, 09:37 AM

I think since I signed up here I have got about 9 PMs all together. Don't I feel really popular

anarchywrksbest · Sep 16, 2002, 10:20 AM

I get a couple a week, from people I am playing MP with or about the Demo game. Hell,I even have one from TF reminding me why I got banned once......I keep it as a memento

floppa21 · Sep 16, 2002, 10:23 AM

I got a pm once from one here saying "I'm crazy! Are you?"

I wondered if this was a mass pming like the one about petitioning to get one unbanned? Hmm... Pms are sort of a pain though. You get one and respond and then the other person responds, and then you respond... Has to end somewhere... I usually am the one who does not end them. I'll continue responding until the other person gives up.
