    [​IMG] I'm a miserable s*d, thats why I never use the PM system. :) It's a great feature, I'm just not sure people would want to talk to me personally...

    [​IMG] Yerril - Well said :grin:

    I use PM where i want to say something to the person but would be inappropiate to make/reply in a topic about that as it would be off-topic. It's useful when I need it but mostly i don't notice it.

    I think the PM system would be better if a message on the main forums page that told you if you had any messages. I personly hate going to my profile just to see if I have any messages. :rolling:

    Dammit Nobleman! I do look! Have I gotten a new one? In this new system atleast I find it to be a bitch to check the PM's, it isnt 'intuitive'.

    Now that i made it the majority, I almost never even check my pms. I can't get too many people to reply to my topics on the boards some times, why would they want to talk to me personaly? :rolleyes:
