deleted all of my PM's...again!

Ok, about every 2 weeks I accidentally delete all of my PM's. It's starting to bug me.

Seriously, that button is so not needed. It's pretty easy to check them all, considering how few messages fit in the box. Then delete checked...

I check a bunch, hit delete, instinctively say "yes" thinking I'm deleting selected, when actually I just erased all of my correspondence...

ya, there's a mark all / unmark all button too which you could then hit delete after a mark all if that was your intention

i've done it several times myself

this gets on my nerves worse tho

Would require very little effort to delete all without it though.

Me too. Oddly enough, I usually get that in the Lifer's forum.

I'm not saying the forums are acting up, I'm saying it is unnecessarily easy to delete them all unintentionally.

so we need to make things more difficult for things we intentionally want to do.

huh? :lol:

Ok, it was just a thought. If y'all don't have this problem then great. I just thought clicking "mark all" prior to delete marked was about as "easy" as clicking delete all. I know its a lot easier than getting back all of your deleted messages....
