Thanks for the cheap slam, psy...

I was misinformed on that as well then? There are several places on the web that seem to indicate it is PMs per hour and I just tested it on my forums and I'm able to manage this setting. Sorry if you're having trouble configuring it, I haven't had any and I'm testing it on one of my forums right now, both groups are posting at the rates I have configured. On the other hand I did so many third-party hacks it is entirely possible I fixed this with a code change I found on the SMF forums.

Isn't that how many messages you can store in your inbox?

Yes.

For someone who administers 2 SMF forums he doesn't seem to understand much of what he's administering lol

Mods as in, global moderators are exempt, and "modifications to change permissions". Only I was wrong...

I stand corrected, no modification is needed. In the admin section you can actually specify which groups have rights to send specific private message counts: (image from one of the forums I run is below)


What you then do is remove the limitation on the global board setting (make it 0 or unlimited). Then you limit based on group permissions (make newbies like 5-10, members 10-20, etc.).

PM me or reply here if you have any more questions.

I admin a couple of my own SMF forums, it's changeable by default and with modification packages you can change it per user/group: (mods are also exempt by default)

Even the admins and mods are subject to that limit. Sorry.

Is that SMF 2.0 or 1.1.16?

You have exceeded the limit of 10 personal messages per hour.

Do I need to become a donator to get rid of this limitation? I wanted to be a donator anyway, so if there are instructions on how to do that, let me know. If I could have the restriction removed otherwise that'd be handy because I do most of my debt collection work via PM. Thanks!
