My PM inbox is getting close to filling; however, I don’t really want to lose some of the history of BlogNomic by deleting messages. Is there any easy way that I could download the PMs I already have for backup? Failing that, is there any large reason not to increase the stored-PM limit to something much higher?
That is true. I had about 120 pms at the height of the Djinn Djinasty.
BlogNomic is an online Nomic: a self-modifying game where changing the rules is part of the game. Players make blog posts proposing additions or alterations to the ruleset, discussing and casting votes in the comments: if enough vote in favour, the rules are changed and play continues.
The game has been running since 2003 and resets every month or so. Have a look around the wiki for more information and history. New players are always welcome and can join in the game at any time.
BlogNomic is powered by pMachine ExpressionEngine.

I’m not aware of a reason, and it can’t add up to much storage space. The current limit is 60 messages; I’ve upped it to 600 for users in the “Idle” and “Administrator” member groups, which are I think the only ones we use. (“Idle” means “normal player”, thanks to some historical accident. “Super admin” didn’t have a setting for it, so I guess they get unlimited PM storage.)
