We have implemented some adjustments to the private messaging system on Lioden.

When viewing your inbox, you will now see a new settings bar that will allow you to configure who you receive PMs from, or if you wish to receive PMs at all. For ease of convenience, the "Block Private Messages" option has been moved from the Account Options table on your den page to your inbox.

The new options for PMs are as follows:

• Allow all messages - The default setting, which will allow PMs from all players.


• Block all messages - All PMs from players will be blocked, barring automated Game Notifications and transfers.


• Block messages from new players (choose minimum days played) - All PMs from new accounts will be blocked, barring automated Game Notifications and transfers. You can set the range of "new account" to block PMs from accounts that are 1 day old or 90 days old. 90 days is the maximum value that can be set. Accounts that age out of your settings will be able to send you PMs (e.g. if you choose to block PMs from accounts that are 90 days old, as soon as the account turns 91 days old, they are able to PM you).


• Allow only messages from friends - Only players on your Allies list will be able to send you PMs, barring automated Game Notifications and transfers.

Please keep in mind that even if you choose to block your PMs, you are still able to PM other players (unless they also have blocked PMs). Anyone that attempts to respond to your PM and does not fit your blocked PM settings will receive an error message that you are not receiving PMs.

Blocking PMs does not block the ability to receive transfers from other players, and transfers can contain short messages. If you feel as though someone may choose to contact you through transfer messages, you can adjust your transfer settings to allow transfers from other players, block transfers from other players, or allow transfers only from friends via the Transfers page.
