There the direct image link. Its easier to read if you use that link

Maybe a hacking attemp.....

 

[Jan]

It isn't a hacking attempt :S

 

[krakjoe]

I wondered where that had gone, I thought maybe it had been pmd to someone.....anyay, what the guy back there said did it......

That's called your PM box. As you can see, there aren't over 65,000 unread PMs. So don't worry about it.

It's a matter of simply editing a file.

If you're gonna b cocky, then it's a screenshot actually, not just a pm box ....

 

[LSComputers]

Okay my account is showing as I have 65535 unread messages and total 72.

I know that its a glitch anyone know how to fix?

 

[Bruce]

Empty your PM box... or wait for the next vBull upgrade.

It's a matter of simply editing a file.

Are we going to wait for the next vB upgrade that has this code already in it? Or is Peo or Todd just going to edit 10 lines of code?

 

[Bruce]

I'd put my money on waiting for the next upgrade.

And does anyone want to know what the problem is? Well; this time, I only got that warning, after one of my "Forum Warnings" was removed.

I bet the problem lies in AWS...

 

[vshost]

I too have this problem.

 

[Tree]

It is a bug in the vBulletin software, and will be fixed with the next upgrade. For now: deal with it.

 

[ddt]

I have been warned.:cry2:

What's wrong with my PM?

Don't worry about it. Suck it up. It'll be fixed soon. You don't really have 60,000+ PMs, so don't worry.
