    Default Why does my pm box say I have 65535 pms?

    It says I have 65535 unread pms..... but nothing is in there! It also has the flashy thing saying I have a new pm but none is there

    And on another note. My warning has matured but I still can't edit why is that?


    What can I do to fix the pm thing? I'll never know when I really have one if it's acting messed up.



    Thanks for any help about this

    Well 65535 is a special number that equals to 64k in computer language. I don't know how but there may be a connection.

    That's 64k -1 because it's 65536 actually.

    But it does have a connection. A mystery which needs to be uncovered.

    That's just it: I don't really have that many! Right now I have ZERO unread PMs but this stupid thing is still flashing. When I do get a new PM, it increases from 65534 to 65535, to 65536 and up.

    My aim, then, was to whip the rebels, to humble their pride, to follow them to their inmost recesses, and make them fear and dread us. Fear is the beginning of wisdom.

    I am tired and sick of war. Its glory is all moonshine. It is only those who have neither fired a shot nor heard the shrieks and groans of the wounded who cry aloud for blood, for vengeance, for desolation.

    Well I actually knew that it is impossible, I was just goofizing the topic.

    Anyway this PM bug and the bug that changes the thread starter to admin whenever an admin posts are two annoying ones of this version of vBulletin.

    (Goofizing: )

    I wish I could have 2 milion PM's, like Tosa showed us in a screenshot some time ago.

    Talk about popularity.
