is the current wasteof.money message system too complex?

no, not at all. but you might want to make it so that you can’t give yourself notifications.

too complex? it’s too simple lol

maybe make an option in settings to auto read messages (like scratch)

maybe something like sa’s version of scratch messages

It’s great. Just make the mark as read thing little bit similar to github's (each message gets its own markasread button when hovering)

You could make it like scratch. I have a suggestion too: Why not make something like Facebook Messenger, so it can be private messages, but in the same site. I think everyone here is 13+ so it would be okay, right?

private messages would probably make moderating wasteof.money way harder. (especially since i assume jeffalo is the only actual moderator right now)

I thought swearing was allowed. If it isn’t, then fuck me.

i didn’t say anything about swearing

why dont all admin messages go to the top but some do

because i manually set the date on those to be in the future for you lol

pls auto mark as read

I get hardly any messages but I think they should automatically be marked as read

Maybe they should be grouped by like type or something

Personally I'm a big fan of the current messages system! The only thing I might change is automatically marking a message read when you click the link in the message. Like others below, I also forget to mark them as read sometimes.

Often times I’ve clicked off of the messages tab without marking the messages as read. Honestly I do like how it’s not too sensitive in doing that, but I can see that it should probably be streamlined somehow
