Agreed. It's such a pain having to delete messages with you've met the limit and you've got messages on hold because of that...
Oh trust me...it's a perk. Just not for you guys...
Anyway, you do realize if you make extra folders and things like that you can keep more than 50 messages. I just think that you can't have more than 50 messages in your main box.
But you can only make so many folders...
Well, you can't ask for unlimited server space now can you.

5 folders of 50 is 250 messages. If the messages are important enough that you want to keep them, then that should be plenty of space. If you're just too lazy to delete stuff, that's no reason for us to increase the size of your PM boxes.

I've wanted to address this for a while, but would it be possible to increase the 300 character limit on signatures? I'm finding it increasingly more difficult to fit my usual results+quote within 300 characters...
Edit: I mean, I understand that the purpose of that limit is to prevent signatures that are like a screen long, but honestly, it's kinda annoying for those of us who want to put results from several competitions.

Maybe only allow exalts and above the privilege to have over 300 characters?

I second this suggestion, but not make it a privilege - a small increase, like to 350 or 400 characters, can't hurt. I also want to fit all of my results into my sig without weird abbreviations like "A/P" for Anatomy.
You're not going to get bigger signatures just so you can brag about your accomplishments more. (Not trying to be mean here) It's meant to be a show of individuality, not a resume.
But, if you want to have more signature space there might be a way to do that. Create enough new features that one of the Admins has to increase the signature size just to include them all.
