Hi. So a few friends use the private message system on my Discourse forum as a sort of chat system. Is there anyway I could set the system to where if you are trust level 3 or higher there are no rate limits on private messages (or even just something crazy high like 1,000 or 10,000 per day)?

I don’t know if it’s relevant but have you tried tinkering with max_personal_messages_per_day setting in admin?

I just found that - is there a way to make it unlimited or should I just set it to a very high number?

Try making it a crazy high number as it doesn’t say that setting 0 will remove the limit. maybe set it to 20000

I’ll try that. Like we’re using the private message system in a way similar to the way you’d use XMPP/IRC - a bunch of really small messages - while that’s probably not what the developers intended - I’m paying for the Google Cloud Servers so if it eats up resources that’s my problem …

Babble is well maintained. Even if something is failing, there are a lot of people using it so it gets reported and @gdpelican is super speedy at fixing such things.
