Ian Posted March 9, 2007 Posted March 9, 2007 Hello everybody, Whenever you delete an unread private message, it decreases your "new messages" (on the top navigation) by two. Right now, I have -56 new messages, heh. This isn't a bug with just our board, it's a bug with all IPB 2.2.2 boards. I have raised this issue with IPB and it should be fixed soon. For now, don't trust your "new messages" number and just keep checking your inbox every day for new PMs. Your "new messages" number count will be reset once the main bug is fixed. Thanks, Ian
Zac Posted March 9, 2007 Posted March 9, 2007 oh thanks! My inbox said I had 0 messages but I had 6 o_O
Superfly Posted March 9, 2007 Posted March 9, 2007 You know this wouldn't happen if everyone read all their PM's :P
Awesome_Paul Posted March 9, 2007 Posted March 9, 2007 mine said it had -4 then when i received one, it went to -3, im back to 0 :D
Ian Posted March 9, 2007 Author Posted March 9, 2007 You know this wouldn't happen if everyone read all their PM's All of them were reported posts, actually.
Justin Posted March 9, 2007 Posted March 9, 2007 It did not happen to me? I deleted a bunch of old messages, but the count is still 0.
Superfly Posted March 9, 2007 Posted March 9, 2007 All of them were reported posts, actually. Your "new messages" count will get messed up too even when the messages have been read. Yea, I figured I was picking on those staff members who don't read all those reports, like Anime. :P But I understand, if they are taken care of why bother reading them. EDIT: I think it had to be UNREAD messages justin.

Matt Posted March 9, 2007 Posted March 9, 2007 Well what I noticed with the old forums were that, say, you recieved lots of reports of a spammy post (*cough*), went to check the inbox and see (for example) 4 unique reports and when you click one, the "X New Messages" goes down to 0. Hrmph. Anyway. Good thing to point it out.
