I'm one of those whose physical environment is chaotic so keep tight control what I can of my electronic one (at work and private).
So any moribund PMs here, exchanges of a couple of messages then no further, to the bin with you!
What do you do, hoard them like Smeagol, or just cast them aside like a used Kleenex? |

Every now and then I go through my messages and bin old ones that fizzled out.
I keep those from forum users so I know what we last spoke about
I currently have 9 unread messages I'm about to deal with. |

"Wish my inbox had that problem lol"
Well yeah I wasn't humble bragging, mine's not in need of super-regular gardening, but I do like to put feelers out and sometimes people respond.
It's good to be able to tell the difference between a polite response and actual interest though. |

"I currently have 746 unread. May hide my profile for a while and go through them. Most will likely be deleted as they are outside my age range or haven't read my profile x"
I think that's the order of magnitude of stuff to deal with that some of us impatient guys really don't imagine, consider or understand when we're fuming about why that ***** is ignoring me |

Messages are deleted once they have passed their use by date so to speak. If we want to keep a record of something that was said or done then we use the private note facility.
Only emails in our inbox are those which are currently active conversations. |

I open all messages so the number unread doesnt pile up, but unless its someone I already speak too or know or about forum stuff Im afraid it probably just sits getting ignored till fab deals with it for me. I do ask not to get messages, so people are forewarned. |

The only time it was a problem was when I somehow messaged to message myself and I couldn’t delete it, it was sat there for months doing my fucking scone in, it’s gone now, so calm is restored, till I accidentally do it again like a massive plum. |
