Nasty PM bug? Lose 30 kilos (of popups)

Um, I think there's a bug in the PM system. I just noticed my PM boxes were getting rather full, so I started deleting messages, starting with the oldest one (which must've been over a year old). When I was then returned to my inbox, not only was the last message deleted, but also all my messages from the past 10 days!

The same happened again when I cleaned my "sent items", though I deleted more than just the last item now.

I tried deleting another older PM after I sent out one, but that worked as it should. The only thing I can think of is that deleting really old PM's somehow messes things up.

Increase Your PM Length

Did you set the page to show messages from the beginning again first? It resets to your default whenever you delete PMs.

Support Apolyton, buy GURPS/ Alpha Centauri

Yes, I did. But it were the most recent messages that were wrongfuly deleted, so that couldn't have been an issue.

Full PM-box? Change here!

Well, not quite all of them, but yes, a lot more than I ticked.

The first time, I only ticked the very oldest message, and it deleted the oldest message, along with several of my most recent messages.
