Title: 10 PM's per hour? Post by: Anonymous on July 28, 2011, 11:58:40 PM Quote An Error Has Occurred! You have exceeded the limit of 10 personal messages per hour. Is that new or am I extra chatty today? Can it be raised for people that talk too much? :D Title: Re: 10 PM's per hour? Post by: deslok on July 29, 2011, 12:16:29 AM That is something that should probably be rasied for the more senior and more active members.Ii've seen it before during a buisness discussion which is why i asked in the meta section about skype being on our profile pages in addtion to aim/msn/yim/icq
Title: Re: 10 PM's per hour? Post by: theymos on July 29, 2011, 04:51:23 AM I would increase it for established members if SMF supported that. A relatively small number like 10 is necessary to prevent mass spam, though 10 is still too high for newbies.

i tried to organize deals with 3 different people and i maxed out without any way of responding... please raise it a bit. or make it like 10 every half hour.. i have people who think i'm scamming them because i'm locked and cant reply... Title: Re: 10 PM's per hour? Post by: twobits on July 31, 2011, 06:56:55 PM I hit this myself pretty quickly when I had three people pming at once. The biggest problem with it was that it caught me
completely by surprise. Now that I know about it, I can pack more into each pm, or switch to IM etc but the first time was a complete shock. Mostly because I was replying to pms and every other spam limitations on pms I had hit before had always been a throttle on how many different people you could send a pm to. Can there at least be put a message shown when sending a pm, you have N pms left for this hour? Title: Re: 10 PM's per hour? Post by: theymos on July 31, 2011, 11:19:46 PM Theymos, have you considered upgrading to 2.0? It was released over a month ago. I don't know if the they support such a feature in the new one but they have a lot of nice improvements added and over 2 years in RC's (even longer in betas) it seems pretty exciting for them to have a final 2.0 out. It would probably be a big project. I'd want to keep the same forum style that we have now, and several of the modifications and custom changes that have been added would break. Can there at least be put a message shown when sending a pm, you have N pms left for this hour? I would if someone would contribute that code. Though if you're going to contribute code, you might as well implement membergroup-based limits. Title: Re: 10 PM's per hour?
