Conversations

After you finnish a conversation (PM), and you click leave conersation, that conversation disappers, How do you reopen a old conversation if you want to please ??

 

I think it can only be reopened by the other person as long as they haven't left the conversation Jiffy.

 

My understanding is that Leaving a Conversation can be done in 2 ways, by selecting one of the 2 options offered:

1) Accept future messages, which is a 'soft delete' meaning any remaining participants can give you the option of restoring it with new 'PMs'/Conversations.

or

2) Ignore future messages, which is 'hard delete' and it's gone forever.

 

Thank you both,

Can you leave a conversation open all the time with out any problems

 

Yes

Edit: There may well be a limit on the numbers of open messages

 

I hope not, i've got 167 pages of them

 

Ive got 12 pages at 20 messages which i thought was a lot

 

I don't do many pm's so i must do alot more to cache up them

 

I always left a conversation when finnished, then i had a thought how do you restart a old conversation learn something new every day

 

no limit on amount of conversations

 

Do they get "purged" at some point Richard?

Thinking back to the old PM system: I used to go through my In and Out box lists occasionally and delete the ones no longer of interest.

Some very old ones got kept because they contained useful info.

I'd hate to lose those old ones due to a "Purge everything older than XXX" type process.

I'd be happy to "Leave" conversations if that helps the housekeeping routine to then delete them, and thus reclaim the space, once they become "dormant"

 

Me being as blind as a bat hadn't even noticed there was a 'leave conversation' until this thread.

 

there is no cull, they basically just remain in the system like posts
