Try sending a pm to yourself. That should fix it for you.

Thanks for answering. :)

But how do I do that? Only my list of friends shows there in "select contact". :-/

Edit.

I got it. By writing my own nick.

I got my own message, but the issue remains... :(

Let's create a Union: "The Lucky Ones"! :) :roll:

And now, on top of that, I've got another issue: there are 2 new messages (the image says four, on account of the other 2, the "fake ones").

I simply can't read my inbox, tried clearing the cache with System Mechanic and CCleaner, to no avail:

Inbox window doesn't load

Did you 2 happen to unignore anybody recently? My problem started when I did that last summer and nothing has worked to fix it so I always get the "1" and the orange envelope. I have gotten into the routine to just randomly check.

No, I haven't ignored anyone. Not a clue about why this issue started... :|

Edit: forgot to say, the other issue (in my last post above) was already fixed.

I assume I will get the same answer but I meant un-ignore anybody?

Hmm, there is someone I have stopped tracking (and vice-versa), and now we are tracking each other again.

But why would that cause this issue? :-/

Nah, not that I know of. I have a feeling the issue will resolve for you guys soon then since it was not caused the same way as myself.

I might have untracked one or two users but didn't get any emails from them. I believe this was after I checked through my pms while I was gone and had the 2 showing up as unread. I went through the whole list of pms again and deleted each one by one and it was still there.

Don't we have a way to contact someone responsible for the site programming?

Outside of CS which may just point you here they will hopefully read this thread since there is no "staff" icon outside the thread.

Yup, I tried everything including that with no luck. Tried marking all as "read" before that and no luck too.

Hey Drac, I think the issue SteverXIII mentioned here (now locked) is distinct from the main issues of this thread; he can see his inbox and he can see that he has a message that has no subject, and therefore no clickable link to read it. I've seen one of those myself long ago, and one or two reported over the years. It has been possible to get into those messages before, if someone wants to go to the trouble, but the messages are often blank anyway. He can probably delete that message with the checkbox and get his message count back in order, more or less. No idea what's up with the issue(s) in this thread though - sorry!
