I'd like to have a better private messaging system.
Set up like a single page with all PM functionalities. For this page to have it's own tab, or a link in your own detective bio. It's like a small email client for priviate messages in here.
On the page you see:
Inbox, outbox, archive, trash, compose message.
Inbox:
Contains all your messages, and you can see which ones are read and which ones are not.
Outbox:
Contains the messages you sent yourself.
Archive:
containts the messages you wanted to save (like we already have.)
Trash:
Keeps trashed messages for a designated amount of time, after which they will get purged.
Compose message:
You can either type in the detective name, or do a quick search based on part of the detective name. You can keep your own address book. Or everybody you have sent a message in the last weeks is listed in a drop down. And there is a drop down for you to choose from that contains all the detectives currently online.
Each PM has a link to a persons detective profile to it.
PMs still pop up when you are online, and you can do a quick reply in a little window. (And the message will also show up in your in + outbox etc)
If you are not online, you just get a pop up that says you have private messages, so you know you need to go to your detective page.
It may be a good idea to have this advanced PM system available to subsribers. And unsubbed to keep the current PM system.
A few bugs in the current system should be ironed out.
1. The spyce exceptions.
2. Sometimes when I have a lot of PMs, I see the first message flash before my eyes to already see the second one in front of me and the first one getting lost.
