I have finally figured this out.  Guess I won't be in the forums and be back there deleting the hundreds of people in there from years past.  I can see now, it's best to delete as you go.  I asked that once some time ago and was told it didn't matter as they just sat there.  Well, that's for sure (LOL).  What a mess.

I sure don't like Zeta.

For me, the most recent is at the very bottom of all those PM's.  You're lucky.

I meant to thank you here lol

I can confirm that as well - Messages never viewed in Zeta show as unread, it's always been that way. You can see the dates are not following chronologically but by how many unread the system thinks there are. A mark all as read would work BUT they'd need to find their current new messages first.

*this is a screenshot of my basic account and all those other members are me EXCEPT Showtalk who helps me test stuff.

I think it's because the staff most likely always used the Zeta (I prefer it because it is bigger lol, but have been using both)

Well, I have a feeling you won't see me for awhlie, as I'll be back there deleting for days I think - ugh!

Whoever came up with this grand idea - why did they not put a checkbox to the left of member's name where one could just put a tik in it and delete from there rather than having to go into the area and delete from there.  It would be so nice to be able to multipe select the names and hit the delete key and whosh they'er gone.  This will take hours to do this Kid.

I'd look for my news messages and wait a bit. I know you like things tidy lol I bet it does not take YOU long to delete it all anyway lol

OK.

It would have been nice to have been warned!

LOLOL -- yep -- you know me too well.  Thanks for your help.
