Deleting old PM'sFollow

Quick question, I was trying to clean up my PM folders and save a bit of Alla's server space by deleting my old messages. I've tried from my work computer and my home computer, but I can't get them to delete.

Is this a known issue? A bug specific to my account perhaps? Or is it the infamous 2% rule, and I'm messing something up?

Just curious, thanks for the help!

Yeah, it's a known issue. Deletes don't work yet, because of the way the message system is set up. Basically, there is one PM message for sent items, and the one the recipient gets. The problem is that deleting it in one place would also delete it from the other. So someone clearing out their sent itmes would in effect erase all the PM's they sent.

A fix is in the works, classified low priority for the moment.

hah. Rog', I GUESS I can see how it doesn't have as high a priority as, say, transfering everything to the new server... I guess...

Thanks for the info, and the insinuation that I'm not going crazy. =D

My reply was sarcasm. Thought it was pretty clear that I understand the priorities.

Don't even see the stickies anymore, I'll remember to check next time.
