Requirements to Message

Your account must be 13+, Your privacy settings must be set on "Who can message me?" to everyone and your Account must be older then a day.

Inbox and Sent

The Inbox holds any PMs that aren't archived.

2009 message example.

The Inbox shows PMs, when they were sent, who they were sent by, and the subject. The subject is not mandatory, and if there is no subject, it will simply say [none] as the subject. This can be annoying to people if they don't know what their message is about. You can also easily select all your mail by clicking on the box in the grey bar at the top of the inbox.

The Sent tab does the opposite of the Inbox and instead shows you the PMs you have sent.

Archive

The Archive holds any PMs you have archived.

The Archive holds PMs you don't want in your way when you are looking in the Inbox; they can also be kept for safekeeping. It's basically like archiving in emails.

Notifications

Trivia

  • In the past, if you went to the Sent tab and clicked on a message, it would have said [USERNAME] wrote even though it's actually [YOUR USERNAME] that wrote it.
  • People were able to send messages to themselves by clicking "(View Public Profile)" at your Profile and clicking "Send Message". This was later removed, and now the buttons are gone completly when viewing your own profile.
  • Because of an update, you can no longer delete messages from users; now you can only send them to your archive.
  • Players frequently complain about spam bots, which is still happening today. Spam bots spam people's inbox with messages like "I think you will like this, it really works!" and then they link to a keylogger, malware, adware, etc.
