So I've been sending Private Messages back and forth with various users all day discussing the various benefits and shortcomings of Bungie.next. One flaw made itself readily apparent as we sent each other messages, the usual tags for bold, italics, quotes, links, etc. don't work in Private Messages. I would like to be able to name a hyperlink taking a friend to an amusing Porch Day thread that popped up, or berate a friend using bold text.
Also, it seems like Conversations exist for every single one of the PMs I had in my 140 page mailbox from before Bungie.next. I'm not sure if that's intended or not.
What do you folks think?

Honestly, those features would be nice but I only have one issue with the private messaging system at the moment. The fact that I've kept my inbox clean, by deleting every PM that is no longer needed, has translated over to the new site as nothing but my own replies to people in the new Conversations tab. All I see is replies I've sent people since I created my account. I would rather have nothing in there since I kept my previous message center clean. To make things worse, there isn't a "Mass Delete" button for Conversations. Hopefully these things will be fixed soon.

Another thought. If we're going to have such an expansive conversation system I think it would be much easier if there were a section in our profile page where we could look at them all full screen rather than just in a tiny dropdown menu. The way it exists right now is actually very inconvenient.

Didn't hyperlinks not work in the old PM system too? Also a problem with the new "Conversation" dropdown menu I can't delete old conversations or at least I can't figure out how to. Now I just have a bunch of conversations that I have to scroll through to get to people I actually want to talk to.

None of the tags work in PMs? That's lame. Hope they fix that.

It's kind of weird. And it's annoying that the markup stuff doesn't work.
