Speed, Messages, Kalends, Nones, and Ides!

It's time to cut down on messages. Here's how we'll do it!
Today, Kalends of March, we announce the coming restrictions.
On the 7th, the Nones of March, the restrictions begin partially.
The 15th, the Ides of March, the restrictions are fully in effect.

What restrictions? Glad you asked.

The goal is to get EVERYBODY below 1000 messages. On the Ides,
the 15th of March, that restriction will be in effect.

Starting the Nones of March (the 7th), regular reminders and
warnings will help you remember the coming deadline.

We've given you plenty of tools to delete messages and clean
things out. Now it's time to use them in earnest.

To those of you who already have under 1000 messages, and that
is most of you - THANK YOU! To the rest, please, find another
storage place, and save us all a bit of this avoidable slowing
from huge message lists. There are still over 2 million messages
out there. It's enough.

I get 50-75 messages every real life day. I handle them all.
I do know that it's hard to keep up. YET, I have only about
20 messages saved.

YOU CAN DO IT TOO!

For yourself, for your friends, for Achaea - let's cut the
clutter in our saved messages!

Penned by my hand on the 13th of Chronos, in the year 444 AF.
