Subject: How many PM'S on average do you receive?

The Stig is dead to me
-Carrick

I've been a member of Bnet for a few years now, and I have barely received any personal messages. The ones that I have received are mainly group spam.

This makes me curious. How often do you get sent PM's, and what is the subject? Is it a group invite, warning, or just a chat from a friend?

do the more experienced members such as Mythics and Intrepids Pm each other so do they get more? Or just the same as anyone else?

This man, this man right here put it so eloquently that I actually cancelled my own 2000+ word long post.

The person who said participating is important, not winning, obviously never won anything.

Normally messeges from friends. Havent got group invites in a long time.

In a time long past, the armies of the dark came again to the lands of men. Their leaders became known as the fallen lords, and their terrible sorcery was without equal in the west.
In 30 years they reduced the civilized nations into carrion and ash. Until the free city of Madrigal alone defined them. An army gathered there, and a desperate battle was joined against the fallen
Heros were born in the fire and bloodshed of the wars which followed and their names and deeds will never be forgotten

Not many.

I got about 26 pages of messages.

(I know some people that have hundreds or used to).

But I don't get very many at all.

I spend too much time here.. too much time indeed.

I tweet?

How much of that is hate mail?

Most of it is Spam mail with 2-4 page long essays on why I should join this group.

Meh. Usually at least one a day. I have 40 pages of PMs, with 25 PMs on a page... So, that's exactly 1,000 PMs! 1,000 divided by the 364 days I've been here (my 1-year birthday is tomorrow!) comes out to be about 2-3 PMs a day.

I have 76 pages of PMs, but that would be around 100 if it weren't for the quantity I have deleted over the years. I tend to keep messages as a reminder of things. For example, I have a series of messages from KAPTURE about a video I created to celebrate Bungie Day 2009, and I have a few messages from other employees/members about some of the most random things you can imagine.

Edit: Having done some simplistic and probably inaccurate maths, I worked out I get around one message a day, as an average.

What a hipster.

On average about 2 a day. I'm sooo popular

Most are just back and forth conversations with friends on here that don't use an outside chat source. It's slow, but gets the job done.

  • 09.25.2011 7:26 AM PDT

Zero.

About zero. Unless I message someone, of course.

I get about 1 per month, maybe less.

Used to get PM'd like 9-12 times a week but now I get like 2-3 a month.

All it took was a stew of whoopass.

I get a message every few months. More than one if I'm lucky.

  • 09.25.2011 7:28 AM PDT

Yep. About .95, so around one a day.

If you guys want to find out your average, just use this and enter the start date as your join date and today as the second date.

Hello! You may also know me as Ijnekono. How you have made your way here I do not know, but welcome. (:

Probably once a week I get a message.

No, I do not want to join your clan/group.

Currently have zero. I usually get one or two every couple of weeks, most of which is group spam.

I have gotten a few random questions on "how do i do this" and the like, and one or two of people cursing me out and accusing me of closing their threads (ffs, do I look like a ninja?), some accusing me of reporting them (hint: if I bothered to reply to you in a thread, I most likely did not report you), and one random one calling me a "GD Euro-trash no-lifer" (I'm American).

Some people on this site just make me scratch my head and wonder what the hell goes on inside their brains.

LOL! That's never happened to me, but I have gotten a few PMs from new users who want help and stuff.
