Seems like you'd need a system to regularly delete conversations with no participants (all sides have deleted themselves). Maybe on the last participant deleting?

Yeah, that's what I was thinking. If nobody in a convo wants it in their inbox for posterity, then the convo is orphaned in the system and I can delete it.

But hmm, I'm assuming people would only delete a private convo once the topic is closed, to make space in their inbox folder. However, if there are 3 people in a convo and one of them leaves, while the others still use that convo, and deletes it maybe he still receives any new messages until he hits a separate 'Ignore' button? Likewise, we would also have the option to simply ignore a convo without actually deleting it in case there has been content up to that point that someone may actually want to keep?

(I hadn't really thought about a max convo limit (or max inbox limit in other forum systems), but I see that it's necessary since private convos aren't moderated so someone create a bunch of garbage.)

I think that if you're a participant in a convo or roleplay, then you should receive notifications. If a roleplay/convo isn't important enough for you to receive updates, then you drop out of it.

Put another way, when you send a message or post in a roleplay, you know the other participants received it. Nobody gets to ignore it. No plausible deniability at RPGuild because we're serious business. :ou
