Please "prune" your box
« on: March 14, 2008, 07:51:43 PM »

When you are in your PM screen, you will notice that the last option under "preferences"
(which is on the left sidebar) is "Prune Messages".   You have the option of pruning your
PMs in terms of the number of days since it was last sent or received.

As we get ready to port CC to the new server, we would encourage you to prune your
inbox/outbox to something reasonable, like, say, 2 weeks worth of PMs.

We do have the ability to restrict the number of PM's according to your post level (newbie,
jr. member, sr. member, hero member, & etc), but we have chosen to not do so. 

So I would like for all members to check their PM in/out boxes, and try to help us as we
migrate to the new server.

Please direct all questions to this thread.

and thanks, everyone.

I'll eventually put this as a link up top. ...when we get ready to move next week. The key is, anytime a new message changes in the header, change the color code.

There's a reason why patriotism is considered a conservative value. Watch a Tea Party rally and you'll see people proudly raising the American flag and showing pride in U.S. heroes such as Thomas Jefferson. Watch an OWS rally and you'll see people burning the American flag while showing pride in communist heroes such as Che Guevera. --Bob, from some news site

This thread is SO not what I thought it was!!!
I can see November 2 from my house!!!

Spread my work ethic, not my wealth.

Forget change, bring back common sense.

No, my friends, there’s only one really progressive idea. And that is the idea of legally limiting the power of the government. That one genuinely liberal, genuinely progressive idea — the Why in 1776, the How in 1787 — is what needs to be conserved. We need to conserve that fundamentally liberal idea. That is why we are conservatives. --Bill Whittle
