Signatures and avies are turned off by default as well, which is probably a good thing :).

Hmmm....never even thought to check. I've never gotten a message though, either I don't have it on, or I don't have any friends. :(

Maybe I shouldn't look because ignorance is bliss.

The PMs are probably turned off by default because LL doesn't want us talking about them behind their backs. ;)

I leave mine off because I'd rather not be bothered.

It's not like you can't just IM me in-world anyways.

I've been on SL for about ten months and never noticed that PMs were disabled automatically. I just assumed no one was trying to talk to me. Ah well, such is the life of the gormless.

Cool. If just one person who did not have PMs enabled receives one now as a result of this thread, I will be able to say I've contributed something to this forum.

Other than bitching about LL's crappy service, ad cutters and land bots who don't return mistakes.

Oh, and stealing Monty Python sketches and changing a few words to try to impress Brenda.

/me leaves it turned off, just to spite Raymond personally.

Beezle, About 2 years ago, I won a $145,000 slot jackpot in Vegas. To get around paying taxes, I buried the cash in the desert. For the longest time I've been trying to decide who to share my winnings with. After much deliberation, I decided that person would be you. I will PM you the exact loca... oh, nevermind.
