Any way to stop every single message I send from being saved in my Outbox?

Yep. Wait until people open them, then they'll hit your Sent box.
If you've been deleting them out of your Outbox, then LOL, because nobody will ever get those messages.

Once you send them, they get sent to your Outbox. Here, you can still edit the message if you need to. But the moment it's read, even if it is still in your Outbox while you are editing it, you can't edit it, and it will move to your Sentbox.

It's not insane. They're on the way '
out
' until they're picked up, then they're '
sent
' once they've been picked up. See? Simple.

It is kind of insane.O_o I've never seen a system like this on any other forum. It's very easy for a new member to be unaware of it and delete a message in their Outbox, unaware that they've prevented the message they've sent from ever being received.

Outbox's are useful because you can still edit or delete them if you find a mistake or the message doesn't apply anymore.

Join the club of people who do not understand how the PM system fully works...

You seem to be confused on the difference between 'insane', 'different', and 'wrong'.

How about arcane.
Okay yami. I have nothing personal against you. I think that if you un-leased this type of attitude in game you would be a good player. But, (how can I say this nicly. I really am. And sorry if I am coming off as mean... It is NOT intentional)people do not like it when other members are obtuse and close minded (sorry it did come off as mean). I'm sorry if its mean and unfair (It possibly is...) but that is how it is.
I would suggest you settle down and have some fun playing mafia. Join a few games. Meet some players, have fun. Once you learn the quirks of this site you will be happy that you did.

Indeed.
This YamiChan character is quite interesting.

You know, while I'm glad you chose to apologize and take back your words, you should have done it here.-.- The stuff you are saying isn't even true.

^that is un-called for. I hope you learn and correct your ways. If you looked in the forum 62 blacklist thread, and if you saw my (damn I'm going to have to do this) the pm I sent to flay you would have seen that I was trying to support you and help you fit in.
One reason why people do not like reaper charlie (the above post) is because he does such things as quote/reference pms.
For the record, I herby publicly apologize for my actions, and (if it is possible) for the actions of the other members of this site. I hope you can overcome this "help thread war" and have fun. This site is truly a good site. And it has "nice" people on it.
Also, for your information, the "OtterC***" is a joke. It started in f62, and probably should have stayed there. I'm sorry for that as well. I hope you find it in your heart to forgive these people and me. I would be glad to try to make it up to you in any way I possibly can.
again, sorry.

I don't see what is uncalled for.O_o You said some stuff that was mean and untrue, but had only taken it back in public. That's all.
