I think the timing of the New Mail placement is very suspicious...
I think it was designed to drum up donations...

Who's with me?!

I LOVE it!

1. I hope it's the precursor to a new mod system like the old "Check your PM!" messages we...
...used to get, oh, I think it was a long damned time ago.

This way people couldn't skate and say they didn't see it. I'm hoping that's the direction it's going, anyway.

2. Precursor to a new mod system?
I'm not sure what you mean...

I do agree this will keep people from saying Oh I don't go into DU this way...

What a relief!

4. Poor choice of words on my part. Remember aeons ago when if you had a message deleted...
..the mod would post in the thread "So and so, check your PM!"?

That sort of thing.

I think the last time they did that might've been the summer of 1856. It was actually 1856 for a couple of years. Took a while for someone to invent 1857.

5. Ah, thanks, now I remember...it WAS a long time ago, lol!
They haven't done that in a long time, I think.

But I haven't had any messages deleted in eons either... :P

3. I love getting PMs.
Like getting a little surprise. I like guessing about the contents before viewing.

I'm weird.
