I've been root admin of several forums and the only time my PMs were THAT bad is when I had a girlfriend. D=

Woah, geez!
I have about 15 pms, and I've been here for two months.

Clear your inbox once in a while. :P

I tend to be OCD about that. I can't stand having a ton of messages accumulated in my e-mail, for instance. I frequently delete things I've already read and responded to.

Same as juju here. I think on Gmail I got 7203 msgs (altough this includes notifications of PMs, FB, my old Youtube account and new members joining Omnimaga/TIMGUL). I sometimes enjoy going back through old calc e-mails and sometimes it brings me back old memories, especially when I land on an old version of a calc game somebody sent me or that I sent someone.

As for forum PMs, keep in mind two or three of them are rickrolls I received, though :P, and I think about 10 are from Nerd83+/Ideasfactory83+ (all within the same hour, IIRC)

I have 205 total PMs.  91 of them are from DJ, including two rickrolls. ;D

I wouldn't be surprised if Quigibo had a lot. I hope he isn't overhelmed too much with questions, though. That's one thing I've been worrying about Axe success x.x

Fortunately, since a lot of people here are experienced with it, they'll be able to help too, though, but still, I remember when I got 10 emails a day about ROL3 and Zelda DLQ on how to install it. If it was like that with just games, imagine with a new programming language

:c
Do you really need to personally go through each and every pm?
Surely you could delegate a lot of the questions/requests...
My website: Currently boring.

Projects:
Axe Interpreter
   > Core: Done
   > Memory: Need write code to add constants.
   > Graphics: Rewritten.  Needs to integrate sprites with constants.
   > IO: GetKey done.  Need to add mostly homescreen IO stuff.
Croquette:
   > Stomping bugs
   > Internet version: On hold until I can make my website less boring/broken.

Oh I don't get as much requests anymore. The small red notice in my sig kinda helped. I can't imagine how many PMs I would have now if I also got requests. O.O
