Just curious how many people actually want to rid their forum bar of a NEW notification of a PM in their way or if they really care that much to read whatever they get right then and there.

I notice it's a compulsive thing for me to automatically do that, even if it's one from myself to where I'm sending one to remind myself to do something later.

Somewhat old wintery layout!
----------------------------------------------------

I click it as soon as I see it.

That way, if something actually important is sent, I'll be notified of it right away

I say keep it. I personally don't get too many PM's, but when I do they're pretty important, so I like to know right away .

I rarely get any PMs in the first place so my first reaction when I get a new one is to click it to find out who sent it and why.

I get PMs so incredibly rarely that in the event one does come, I click on it right away.

Most my PM's come from Xkeeper.

Mostly because of something dumb I did.

I look immediately, but replying is reserved for if I feel it is necessary.

I just feel it'd be rude to ignore the notification otherwise.

Same here...

In most cases, anyway- If I'm very busy or something I'm not going to drop everything to look at a PM (though one wonders why I'm looking at the board while so busy anyway )

I check the new messages right when I see them. Most of the time they're for something important, like Mafia IV: TSLDG.

It depends on who it is.

Some people's PMs sit in my inbox for hours. Other PMs are replied to with great haste.

I will always instantly read any PMs I get, and chances are I will most likely respond, unless it is a response to one I sent earlier.


Very rarely do I not reply to a PM.

You have XX new private massages!

You'd better believe that I accept those as soon as I see them.

But yeah, I check my private messages right when I see that I have new ones.

As I read it, though I understand either interpretation, he's talking about if we immediately read it to get rid of the NEW, not if we want it removed from the board.

I do, when I get PMs. It's rare, though, because most people who want to talk to me do so in AIM or World of Warcraft.

I usually respond, depending on the PM. Some simply don't need a response, or get covered in AIM before I think to check the board.

Even though it's that I get PMs, when I see the "New Message" text, there's some strange part of me that said I must read them before doing anything else.

That, except minutes as opposed to hours.

I'll agree that it depends who I've received a message from. There are some people who I just don't really... get along with... and I will put off reading and responding to their messages.

I get very rarely PMs. I do not need PMs so much.

The latest PM is name change

I wouldn't know. I've never gotten a PM, here or any previous incarnations of any of these rom hacking boards.
