How to disable direct/personal/conversation messages?

[Namy]

Hello,

 

I looked around for awhile, but I'm unable to find any source of information, apart from 1-2 years old posts.

I don't want to block/ignore users as the case, I just wish to stop receiving private messages lmao

If this does not exist, I think it is a good suggestion to be added/enabled

At the bottom of the message list on the left is an option to "disable my inbox".

It seems answered one of my questions - as I failed to send message for an user - just a notification about translated mods.

The same user have no comments/ bug reports/ any sort of contact section under the uploaded mods.

So how can users contacted for permissions if they close the contact methods?

What does their permissions sections say?  If it says "contact me for permission" then you have a problem.  If it says "permission is denied" then you have no reason to contact them.

Depends on the concrete mod/ author.

A part of them have no problem, as it is granted - just would like to be proper to notify the creator.

Others say if cannot be contacted in reasonable time (or it specified in 2 weeks) - then do whatever. -> But how to prove it was tried?

But others yes: "contact me for permission".

In the concrete situation there is no problem, as translations/ upload anywhere were granted. (Just wished to send a notification.)

The problem is the general situation.

So my idea about solution:

A dedicated notification/ permission button where text and links possible to be sent (hey, I translated/ uploaded your mod to X link/ message box for permission (where set minimum, like 500 character message for proper asking to not waste creators time with one sentence messages - but state properly intentions)), which is unlike private messages/ mod comments + bug sections cannot be disabled, IF the uploader set any permission required.

Also to set site rules as: if there is no reply for such request in like 30 days permission granted (like inactive users).

Basically solve the problem when creator cannot be contacted.
