Is there a way this can be implemented?  For instance, I have 120 pages of pm's, and oftentimes I just want to view my conversation with ONE other forum member on a single page instead of having to go through looking for their messages or searching.  If possible, I would really appreciate it x3

Better yet, why can't we just have an Instant Message system? I know we use IRC, but still...
Could've been something great. But ya' blew it... Ya' blew it.

was having a conversation earlier with somepony and found it incredibly annoying that I had to click through several pages of irrelevant posts from others to see what they were referring to x3  it's just a suggestion for the site, but I think it would be really helpful, especially to those of us who pm a lot.

Well, for the time being I have a suggestion that should buy you some time:


  • Click here to go to your personal message search page.

  • In the "Search For" box type in commonly used punctuation and simple words separated by spaces. I'd recommend ". , ? a i" without the quotes.

  • Make sure to change the combo box to "Match Any Words".

  • Type in the user name you are talking to in the "By User:" box.

  • "Search Order" can be what you want. For an IM-ish experience I'd use "Most Recent First".

  • Check "Show full message in results."

  • Hit search.



Any posts lacking punctuation or any other words you typed in, it won't show up. Hopefully it won't matter because if you realize it's missing, you should know what to search for to find it. Good luck!
