Clitty,

I doubt it. One member who has been here for 6+yrs made a forum thread and had written that the 1 pm limit was hindering his decision on becoming premium. LMAO!!! What a joke that was. If he didn't become premium while he had the unlimited use of pm's, I highly doubt he would buy premium now. It was just a way to bitch and moan.

Exactly my point - people were saying that the PM limit was somehow discouraging them from going Premium, so logically, now that they have more PMs while it is free, they are more likely to pay for Premium?

Formating of PM Inbox/Outbox

20-Jun-14 20:56

Welcome the resetting of PM limits.

Latest restriction, perhaps unintentional is that the heaving side banners now prevent one seeing if the recipient has answered a PM.

This is not helpful!

I make a good number of tributes - adding to the life of the site - but I don't continue contact with people who don't open/reply to PMs.

So I need to know!!!

Original comment badly expressed - I meant you could not see whether the recipient had OPENED the PM - that now seems fixed on main site but problem still there on mobile phone

Oh I don't think so, they want what they can get for nothing, only problem is that nothing doesn't keep this and any other site going from year to year !

This should not be a private, free service.
Being open and in public draws new customers and the benefits of premium must be maintained.
