Looks like you are sending plenty of PMs! We have put certain limits in place to avoid abuse and to save system resources.
Please consider a donation to Pinside to double your PM abilities (50 messages per day) or go Pinside+ and remove all PM limits altogether.
I will make a point to communicate these limits more clearly. I never had many questions about these, but you are the third person to ask about this in a weeks time.

Quoted from Tlamb:Seriously...It amazes me that anyone that actively uses this site doesn't donate. If you find value in this site, donate. I mean even $10 is better than nothing, not like they are asking for a month subscription.
Everytime I sell a pin on pinside I have always markes sold and paid the sellers fee. Look in my market. Over 30 times. And most of tee time there a features add. So lets call it 600 plus donations? Im perfectly fine with paying ti send pms just never ran into this until now.

I see, I just thought if you donated within the last year you would have a <3 (heart) by your name, especially if you have donated 600 times

You don't get the red heart by your name by paying a fee for a sale.
You get the heart for a voluntary donation.

Seller fees are different than donations. With seller fees, you're paying for a service. A donation is just a donation.
If you do donate, you will get a discount on the seller fees.
Thanks guys. I guess I've been looking at this differently. Unlike others that list games and mark not sold to avoid the the fee I always pay it and considered that helping pinside. I just went and made a donation and know get the how theres a difference.

I was not trying to shame you into donating I was just explaining the difference as to why you had no red heart before.
