There are lots of things possible, the question remains whether it is plausible that they did, and that he left his mail choked up like that for years? I've never even had fifty mail messages - how do you get to the last message if you have say two thousand?
We're not talking theoretical, we're talking why would any rational person do these things.
We log into a video game set in a fantasy world to escape the reality around us. What exactly is rational about that?
Why the hell would I spend 20 minutes collecting each mail, dragging and dropping to combine them into stacks to unclog my inventory, knowing when I emptied my 50 mail limit they would be sent again in a few minutes time. When I could just take 2 minutes read each mail, and let them count down there time to auto delete and while they are clogging up my mail, i can't get anymore.
Sadly one day, when they expired they were like buyback, and stopped at 1 day timers permanently. And lo and behold when it did that each time I was able to get 50 more mails.
And like I already said, you need to make more friends in ddo if you know NOBODY who has done this or had it done to them.
I know people who use the mail as storage. I'm sure you do to. I also know people who accidently missed there time table and thought there mails were going to be deleted and they couldn't log into the game. And when they logged into the game days after they were expecting there mail to be auto deleted it wasn't. Those same people put 2+2 together and figured out something was not working correctly accidently like I did a different way, enough people did actually if turbine had to implement a "fix" for it all these years later.
