I enjoy messages, although 9 days out of 10, they're friend requests from people I already thought I had on my friendlist, or someone quoting me. No personal messages or anything, I'm so unloved.
Does anyone else

Now fear my message, twice!. But seriously, I know what you mean, I'm so close to getting my 1000 comments badge without complaint, that I'm basically saying the nicest thing possible all the time... even if it doesn't make senseAltorin said:
I like it, if it's a bigger number like 7 or 12 I know that they'll all be quotes. But it still puts things into perspective, fueling my massive ego with thoughts along the lines of "Hey, people are paying attention to what I say."
Yesterday morning I only had 1 message though, and I was somewhat disheartened, but it turned out to be a friends request from PurpleRain, so my happiness meter went straight back up again.
[sup]I should probably point out before someone inevitably says something about it that "happiness meter" isn't an innuendo for anything. [/sup]

I actually rather enjoy messages. A little murmur of excitment jolts through me as I wonder who could possibly have written. I wonder what they want to talk about and get realy excited and interested.
And then when I find out it's just automated computer messaging and I have an excuse to go drink.

Whenever I see "1 Unread Message" I am filled with excitement because that means someone actually acknowledged my exsistence on this forum.
This is kind of interesting, reading all this. I spend a lot of time in the roleplaying and forum games section, and I'm playing two games that rely quite heavily on PMs, so it's rare that I don't have a few messages, a quarter of which will be people quoting me. In fact, I need to be recieving messages for these games in order to play them. An empty inbox means that something has gone horribly wrong.
Random subject switch: Quote messages. Half a blessing, half a curse. On the one hand, it's nice to know when someone has quoted me so I can go back to the thread and respond. On the other hand, they fool me into believing that the messages I've actually been waiting for have been received.
I don't think I've ever looked at the "unread messages" link with trepidation. The prospect of being banned never actually occurred to me, I guess.
