We need a mass leave conversation feature. I've had 150+ responses to my latest link buying thread, 90% of them are junk. Do I really need to spend the rest of the day sitting here opening each, leaving conversations and allowing future messages? What would normally take me 5 minutes each morning has taken me an hour. It's just too difficult to track new messages. I can barely see the new bold/highlighted message in Chrome and even then 100% new messages are so far down my Inbox that I'm missing them due to all my replies appearing above them. I can imagine it's fine for the average user but for the link sales community here, it's not manageable at all. I've had to request people stop sending me proposals for links as my Inbox has become entirely unmanageable in just a single day. If that wasn't bad enough, I'm also getting inundated with requests for likes. People are PM'ing me, e-mailing me, messaging me on my private chat applications and even replying to my threads asking for likes? I thought it was bad enough having a high iTrader and having people hassle me for one but these likes are driving me insane. Hopefully you do something about this. I'll be asking people to send me options via e-mail on future threads but I would like to keep my DP dealings just within DP. Hopefully something can be done.
The only real way that would make it better is if you never read the messages to begin with... I assume you are at least opening the messages though, right? You can leave the conversation the first time you read the message... I do agree though that it would be nice to have folders and stuff, but something like that is probably going to have to come from a future XenForo update (I suspect we may see it in a future version since I imagine a lot of people want it... even though I never used it myself). As far as people asking for Likes, just report them... they will end up banned.
Some messages I open, some I don't. For example, I'll put a thread up wanting to buy links in a given niche, usually month to month and then depending on the day/time, I'll get anywhere between 100 and 200 messages with propositions. This is fine, as I like a lot of choice, but when I've bought enough, I really want to be able to delete what's left over without opening and leaving the conversion on each one. If I've got 200 messages and got everything I need from the first 5, I don't really want to be deleting the other 195 one by one. I'll be up to about 100 pages of conversations from 4 or 5 threads as I won't be able to spend time deleting each one... Everyone will get inundated with PM's who posts as a buyer in the link sales section and I would imagine nobody will have the time to delete what's there. I realise there is an argument for keeping PM's and re-visiting the conversations should I need more links in a given niche - but the offerings change so quickly. Sites get penalised, domains expire, prices change, sellers disappear (or get banned) and new sites are added to the inventory. Link buying has to be done with up to date data. Old messages need to be expunged and replaced with new offerings each round. Lack of folders doesn't bother me. A mass delete would be fantastic. Or even an empty inbox link.
