Larry or any of the Moderators,
What are the chances of increasing the PM Folder size from 50 messages to a 100?
Thanks,
Lee

Is that a no?

You want a response in less than 3 hours? Really? Only Larry can address this issue, and I suggest you send him a PM, instead of making a public post.

It comes down to server space. Those messages take up room. 50 more messages might not sound like much, but when you multiply that number by how many active members we have, it becomes a huge number very quickly, and that space costs money.

A few other forums I belong to (including Lateral-g.net) have 100 as the max--so I figured it couldn't hurt to ask.

just a thought.....(50PMs is more than adequate for my needs, other forums are less than that)...but....
another forum that I visit has a set amount of PMs for the free memberships and a larger set number of PMs for the different levels of paid memberships.....maybe that is an option for someone wanting more PM space?...again it is just a thought to add to this conversation for consideration.

There is a paid option here. I need to re-evaluate our current server. It's possible that I can change it across the board since we do have some room to grow.
If you really need it now here are some options to support the site and gain a larger PM box.
