Useless restriction?

Why can't we send more than 20 PM's an hour?

I just reached it and can't contact burbs babe for highly important MHS discussion (cough *senior social* cough) ::) :P

So the suggestion is clearly to remove this limit.

Well it's to prevent spam obviously. I don't think there's many situations that need someone to send more than 20 PMs an hour. If you are, clearly you need another route of communication like MSN or email o_o

I can't respond to you (due to limit) but yeah having a Premier's would be cool although you are correct in saying it is of no immediate use/benefit rather it's an ego burst :P

lim (pm -> 20) = 0

Think about it.

Also, if you're sending so many messages to burbs an hour, talk to him on Facebook.

Yes. (I'm not taking that as a bad thing :P)

Which brings me back to - can I have it (the restriction) lifted?

Wouldn't it have just been easier to get his email or something? This isn't something the mods can do. Not even sure if it's covered under the permissions that Nina's in charge of.

Moderators wouldn't be able to change it; in fact, considering how forum software is usually written, it's an all-or-nothing scenario. Either everyone has the limit, or no-one does.
