All, If your name is on the list below, welcome to the Private Message Hall of Fame :/ The database for Silver Stackers is getting obese - time to trim some fat. This is the list of users with more than 1000 private messages in their folders (both received and sent) - there's 181,000 messages between this group, out of 314,000 private messages in total in the system. Private messages account for more space in the database now than the last three years of posts! It is causing issues with performing nightly backups of the website. There's potentially also a lot of personal information that would be at risk in the event of malicious access to the database. Would be appreciated if some cleanups could be undertaken (me included) so that the database can start shedding some fat. 18404 Maggie 8175 goldpelican 4884 hiho 4840 ozbullion 4504 yennus 4424 hem9 4309 projack 4011 silverstalker 4004 Captain Kookaburra 3975 Aurora et luna 3884 Ronnie 666 3193 adrenalin 3142 undftd 2953 adze67 2920 fishball 2752 THUCYDIDES79 2640 malachii 2552 RhythmDoctor 2471 justin536 2318 rbaggio 2203 ilikecoins 2031 SilverBaron 2027 nicwinner 1943 Lunarowl 1889 PradoEagle 1860 RetardedMonkey 1800 Trichter 1705 Flip 1664 switchtronics 1600 vaunt 1590 domdolittle 1536 jpanggy 1475 Argentum 1436 Garnet 1414 mmm....shiney! 1403 Chillidog 1391 lucy43 1388 1for1 1360 Apollo 1347 Ag 1282 Auscu 1275 silver addict 1269 LovingtheSilver 1251 Len82 1250 Thor122 1240 SilverSale 1235 Slam 1231 kek 1212 XB 1204 ajzm 1196 Nedsnotdead 1195 Stexe 1167 aussilver 1163 brisbanecoin 1122 Bullion Baron 1097 Blockhead 1097 Naphthalene Man 1079 Justfishin 1042 PrettyPrettyShinyShiny 1010 Elemental
I delete mine once a week ,or when the transaction is done I don't know how you people deal with so many pm's
Geez GP I have deleted and deleted I think I need help. Is there a way to just do a bulk delete please?
Was planning to implement an auto-delete for messages over 60 or 90 days old at one time but had a lot of requests not to do so - might need to revisit that. Maggie - just let me know from what date in the past i can delete from, quicker to do yours from the database!
330 Jislizard What the hell are you lot up to!? And more importantly why are you leaving me out! Probably all planning my surprise birthday party I bet.
Ag is now the cleanest member on SS... GP - you should just purge 60+ day PM - actually thought that was the rule?
I actually like them there in case I need to chase up an old address etc. I'll try and clean up over then next week or so. Sorry!! malachii
Projack has a lot - and he hasnt been selling in a while - must be all the people asking questions about Sovs and stuff.
is there any way to fwd a pm to a home email address? interestingly, was looking at some snapshots of this website and noticed it would of been a lot of fun stacking in oct 2009 here this site how it looked oct 2009, notice the silver price? that would of been sweet. http://web.archive.org/web/20091005063812/http://forums.silverstackers.com/
I have discovered bulk deleting now. In the past always spent an hour to delete messages one by one when my mailbox got close to 90% capacity.
