Well it would just be an option, so on the whole it would not be the original PM system.

And each previous message could be accessed via a simple menu, like the one that I took a screen shot of here, which is used on another forum for long threads. This would enable you to have all previous messages in an exchange with someone to be in one sequential list (the thing pictured), contrary to the way the current system works where every single message is simply stacked on top of the last one in a huge list, without the ability to group all messages together from a particular individual. All previous messages would be as easy to access as flipping through a pamphlet.




Also, MsgBox works like the forums. Threads bump to the top; older, inactive conversations fall back. I don't know what you meant with your sequentially statement, but that's how MsgBox works.

Wouldn't the smarter thing be just to notify the msgbox sender that the recipient doesn't use msgbox so that the sender can initiate a conversation via regular PM.

A lot of us hate msgbox and have since it was created.  I'd have it disabled, too, if I didn't need it for banned users to get in touch with me.

Thank you for reporting this problem! I apologize for the inconvenience, I don't really use the msgbox so I didn't notice it. Can you try setting up a new key and see if it works now?
