Heh, I almost named this PMs, then I was like 'Waiiit a sec...'


How many Private Messages do you have? I've only got 26 Total, and six of those are from the past couple days.
Aliantha • Nov 8, 2006 11:59 pm
Hardly anyone ever sends me PM's. The entire time I've been annoying everyone here I think I have about 6 to show for it. :(
Clodfobble • Nov 9, 2006 1:43 am
Well, if you want to be scientific about it...

I have 116 PMs, in 2 years and 8 months of posting = 3.625 per month

You have 26 PMs, in 7 months of posting = 3.71 per month

See, you're winning. :)
Aliantha • Nov 9, 2006 3:17 am
Actually, I have 22, but half of them are my responses I think.
breakingnews • Nov 9, 2006 3:45 am
I have 34 messages - huh? Where on earth did those come from?

Upon review, I remember most of them. But I have to apologize to a number of folks to whom I did not reply. I suck.
slang • Nov 9, 2006 4:53 am
How many might xoxoB, Wolf, and Toad have? Thousands? Tens of thousands? :D
bluecuracao • Nov 9, 2006 6:20 am
I only have five, and three of them are from three of you here.
Undertoad • Nov 9, 2006 6:55 am
1255. I always forget to delete.
yesman065 • Nov 9, 2006 9:41 am
I just realized I can hold 10,000 at 2-3 a month that'll take at least a year to fill up right??
Elspode • Nov 9, 2006 11:56 am
Um...no. That would take about 277.77 years to get to 10,000 at the rate of 3 a month.

Do you want us to start a "sick little boy wants PMs" thread for you, to help fulfill your dream of a full PM Inbox? :D
glatt • Nov 9, 2006 12:03 pm
I have 43. I don't PM too much.
Shawnee123 • Nov 9, 2006 12:04 pm
36. Not much of a PM'er because I always think people are thinking I'm a stalker. :p
Trilby • Nov 9, 2006 12:16 pm
I have 1385. But that's only because I talk about you guys behind your backs.

KIDDING!

Actually, I talk to SG a lot.

Looks like there's more in private than posted in the threads.

I do go in and delete some every now and then
Sundae • Nov 12, 2006 8:13 am
45, but I delete them because our IT dept got me into good habits :)

I PM Brianna because some things don't need to be shared openly (and she is an old soul and really makes me laugh)

I also PM DanaC because she's a good gel & we have a lot in common, esp tastes in books. And British things, you know.

Oh and sometimes I need help. Tachnical I mean, so I PM UT and the rest of the Heroes :)

I tend to use the PM as email, for chats & exchanges. Can't say it's ever because it's super-secret private. I expose that sort of thing on the main forum!

Have you ever had one of those feelings when you knew something but it never came up to a conscious level? ........the moment you recognize the truth in something

....this was one of those moments....

Nope, never have on here

In my emails to work colleagues about other colleagues - absolutely!

of course work. Although our slagging is very mild. The complaint most often is that everyone is seen chatting everyone else up all of the time.
So one day the biggester chatter of all was caught complaining to management that her little worklings were 'talking as friends.'


talking as friends ????? :smack: lol that is the extent of our backstabbing at our work.
Sundae • Nov 13, 2006 10:45 am
I have lost all my chums on my floor now :(
But we were as evil as eachother - or at least had the same wicked sense of humour.

Except in the case of one coworker we really didn't get on with (guess who is STILL sitting next to me after the move?) it was mostly targeted at management. Amending and forwarding round emails to show what they really meant. Or disgusted account of what X asked them to do - does she think I'm her personal slave?! That sort.

Amongst the troops there's a good sense of camraderie. There has to be really, public services is hardly known for it's huge paypackets!
skysidhe • Nov 13, 2006 11:41 am
normal stuff then ...

I try not to take sides. I am my own side. I do have my favorites just like any place.

In my experience, this can be a very dangerous practice. lol All it takes is one wrong click in the 'To' column and you're history.
xoxoxoBruce • Nov 13, 2006 7:48 pm
In many work environments, when you delete, that just means you can't see it any more. Doesn't mean the boss and his stooges can't.:unsure:
wolf • Nov 13, 2006 9:54 pm

Sundae • Nov 14, 2006 1:45 pm
I know. I used to produce a scurrilous newsletter that I stopped circulating because I had no control over who ended up seeing it...

I figure if they want me out they'll get me out one way or another anyway - but I do try to be as careful as I can.

Still. my Night Before Christmas parody somehow leaked out without my name on and did the rounds. Not that I sent it to someone I knew couldn't keep a secret of course, pretending I'd just received it....

I'm pretty unpopular... I never had any neighbors or friends as a kid. Just don't have any social skills.
To this day almost my friends (I do have a couple) are in their fifties and sixties (or are very eccentric artists). Just don't deal well with games and the older generation seems to communicate with me in my direct way better.

I'm not sure I made myself clear. I was not agreeing with your statement that you are "not very popular" by saying that you are not unpopular - that you are not, contrary to your post, disliked. A low PM count only means you haven't pissed off too many people which is not a bad thing.

You think you get more PMs if you piss people off? ::relief::
