First, I love how the pm system is set up here. It makes it easy to see what all you have sent to a user in the past.
I haven't seen a way to delete private messages, yet, though

I use PMs to talk with the people who I rp with, and it gives us a way for us to talk without interrupting the actual RP. The issue with this is the current system makes it to where you can't post another message if you are the last one to reply. The issue with this is if I had nothing to say to their pm the last time, they can't send another one on the same thread-style and either need to clutter up their username in the pm box, or just not reply at all.


So my main suggestion is to make it a little like the forums in letting the person who last replied be able to comment again. Either because they missed something, or after some time, or whatever. That way we aren't forced to go back and fourth with replies or get a cluttered pm box.


On another note, having a way to maneuver through the pms would be nice as well. As I have 13 different users with pms sent to or from them and probably about half of those have more than one pm message to them. (So I click in the name and have 2-5 different titles to click).
I like to go and re-read my pms, but with how it is, it's more time consuming to try and work out how to get back through the pms to get back to the right level to continue re-reading them. But this is a low priority thing for me.


TLDR;
1) Let the last poster be able to post again in the pms.
2) A way to navigate within the pms with a little more ease

I second the motion to be able to reply again even if I was last. At times when setting up trades or talking about the same topic over a period of time I might say "hang on I'll be right back" or I'll be the last person to speak. Then maybe a day later or even a few hours I might want to say "hey I'm back" or continue what I was saying.

But then I have to start a new topic and start again. I also have replies cluttered up by having topics that say "Trade (cont.)" or "Hey Again" when I should just be able to reply again. That's my biggest complaint mainly, and having tiles upon tiles of messages with new topic titles even though I'm still on the same topic is very cluttering.

This is a pretty big issue for me because I get a lot of PMs asking for trades and Pokemon vouchers (being a premium member), nuggets, etc. and it's hard to organize who's who, topics, and all of that with how things are set up now.

I'd like to see an easier way to organize my PMs. Such as being able to put topics in a certain order be it by time stamp or alphabetical (maybe get to choose how). Or maybe make folders to put certain messages in, similar to how the storage boxes are set up. Think of the PMs as Pokemon and the Folders as Storage Boxes. I can put PMs in these Folders, label these Folders for my needs, and keep better track of my messages. (But this is probably just me, my main concern is the Reply function).

So yes, I definitely approve of letting the last poster reply, that would help limit the clutter greatly.
