65534 private messages bug?

[Skyrider]

It keeps telling me these days i have "65534" unread private messages. What kind of bug is this?

The kind of bug where I spammed you non-stop for thirty four days? :devgrin:

Not sure. Best bet would be to send Masta/Greg an e-mail (or Private Message, if it'll -let- you with your "eleventy billion" messages).

Oh, that. It's a new feature to gain revenue on the ESF Forums! Enjoy the viagra, penis enlargement, and other assortments of advertising!

In truth, I have no idea =P. Try clearing them.

Seems clearing my Private Message Box fixed the problem. Odd bug though, i had the same bug a few weeks ago as well.

65535/65536 is the max range of an unsigned ("positive"-only) SMALLINT field in most SQL databases.

That error has nothing to do with your cookies, it was most likely an error or anomaly in VBulletin that hasn't been reported to the VB team (or someone is slacking on updating the forums again ).
