Forums - Conversations limit


Cadiboo

Recommended Posts

On these forums, it seems that you can only have 1 conversation before your inbox becomes full. This is pretty annoying when you have a small question that doesn't need a full topic (like this one) or a question addressed to a specific person (also like this one kinda)? Is this so that all questions are asked in public threads to preserve them for future reference? If not, can this limit be increased?

The inbox setting is likely to reduce the amount of messages stored, since people rarely delete them, with 1000s of users it’s easy to chew up storage space

As opposed to the 13000+ forum topics

Most forum software does messages in a thread manner but it copies the whole thread each time, it also promotes the sharing of information/solutions as you are btter of making a new thread. It’s also much easier to do inbox on a software designed for immediate communication such as Discord

Say I want to ask Lex a question about how the forge forums work, instead of being able to directly message him, I have to create a topic.

 

Why would forum software copy the whole thread?

In your example you would be messaging the wrong person and likely get no response

 

i am unsure of why some forum software does it but i’ve experienced it

 

i could be completely wrong but the limit may be a wonky default ir an error due to the software migration
