It might have already been suggested (I know, it's a wild idea), but why not alert users with full inboxes to this fact when 1) they login or 2) someone tries to send them a PM while they are logged in? Personally, I hardly ever check the e-mail address associated with TTLG (no warm bodies write there, for various reasons), so as a result it may be days or weeks before I finally realize my PM inbox is full. I wouldn't want something like that to be implemented just for me, I think it would be logical anyway. After all, one can receive a notification when they just received a new PM in the form of a dialog box, and that isn't seen as laziness (as opposed to making everyone go to their e-mail and check it to see if they received a new PM), so I'm just wondering... Also, or in place of that suggestion, could it be possible to have a notification in the PM inbox itself? Having "Capacity: FULL" text at the top or somewhere conspicuous could be all that's needed, I know I personally didn't think my inbox was full when I was waiting for a response from epithumia about something..
Hope this doesn't get stomped down like any and all request for avatars :sweat:. Just thought a method other than e-mail might be good for those who, like me, don't check their mail so often or want a notice when they login to TTLG that their PM inbox is undeniably full.

vBulletin 3 indicates how full your PM box is with a bar-graph type display.
vB3 should go gold sometime this week with us upgrading a short time later.

Neat :thumb:. Been really angry (more at myself) the few times my inbox has gotten full and folks have gotten bounced PMs because of it, while I sat in the dark being none the wiser. It'll be nice to get that bar-graph display as some e-mail providers use.
