    Hi Gents.

    Know you are busy and all, but I just have one suggestion. Is it possible we could have a system whereby you could have small boxes next to each PM, and so If you want to perform a mass delete (like I do) You can just check on the boxes of the messages you wish to discard and click 'delete'. Because it is rather time consuming, especially as you get an `are you sure?` message in the process.

    If this could be implemented, messages could be deleted many times faster.

    Thanks for your time

    -Lethal-

    I also like the idea and recammend it for deleting your threads that you have subscribed to it can take more than an hour to delte all those

    I did a search before posting, but to no avail. But the fact that it has been mentioned more than the once signifies that it is an issue..

    id say there definately needs to be something done about thread unsubscription... going through several hundred threads ive subscribed to and unsubscribing one by one is basically a pain in the ass. the tick box idea sounds good
    even if theres no way to get tick boxes couldnt there be a link to unsubscribe from all threads?

    I agree I wish this could be implemented. I have over 3000 subscribed to threads and the thought of deleting them 1 by 1 is mind boggling, so they just keep piling up. I used to try and keep up with deleting them but it just became too much.

    droogie - it is nice to get PMs from friends here from afterdawn. But to be known, you generally have to do a lot of helping. And with helping come many noobie questions to the inbox, which is sometime depressing :)

    A little explicit, but a nice view.
