DM Limit for New Members

Why does this site put a limit on new messages for new people? Is it to get money from them? How can you meet new people if you can’t start a conversation with multiple people?

I think it's to cut down on spammers
and people that have been suspended/terminated from coming back and causing mayhem

@Punches *shivers*
can't get that out of my head now :)

@Pretzel My old room mate and I used to call anxiety "the walmarts".

"No, I do not go to the north east side of town, that neighborhood gives me the walmarts"

@Punches Just like when Cabbage Patch dolls were all the rage in the 1980's.
Anti spam tools, all social media sites have it in one way or another

You should ask the people running the site.

It's to prevent spamming.

@GolfT2Gz 🤔i agree you with what you say how can you make friends on similar worlds when admin tie your hands . if you message people what will the be the outcome either they will tell politely or rudely they do not want too talk . they will not answer the message or just simply block you 🤷‍♂️

Maybe start by an introduction and see if anyone sends a message to you?

@meJess Thanks Jess

I have no idea, I try not to private message people

That prompts this question: What if a newbie receives a DM from a seasoned member and they find mutual interests. Does SW stop a good exchange abruptly when the newbie has reached their limit?
Starcrossed · 41-45, F
because "new" accounts often aren't and without limits it tends to be an abused thing. they are erring on the side of annoying new people over longer term accounts

Not really that big of a deal. If u get that message just wait a hour or two then message the person
FreestyleArt · 36-40, M
Well there's not a lot of traffic in this site. They gotta make something in order for this site to stay up.
Punches · 46-50, F
Probably because too many simps keep sending messages to anyone with an "F" in their profile.
It’s not necessary to dm to have conversations with multiple posters (as you’re doing here). That said, I hadn’t realized there was now a limit.

It's so we're not bothered by pervs

quality over quantity, remember that.
