Hello,

So straight to the point, there are plenty of instances where you want a dedicated "Focus" inbox where you have selected members and you know when those same selected members DM you.
Instead of trying to remember if 210938123 unread DMs includes one of your sellers/buyers/someone important msged you, since clearly, you ain't gonna open them up anyway so that number never hitting 0.
DMs from Staff members will also appear from this Focus inbox to give it a bit more "high priority".

Pros
Help the members more easily navigate through their DMs. I know folders exist and stuff but sometimes when i get 4-5 DMs at once, and I am choosing to deal with 3 of them later and 1 of them now, my gold fish memory don't remember if it was 3 or 4 or 5 or 6 that I had earlier :)
Yes a me problem but as they say, plenty of other fish in the sea. (Hah jokes on you, I get no DMs)

Cons

Actually, it's too early in the afternoon to try look fancy and smart and I probably not making any sense at this point.

Long story short.
A separate mailbox where you can add/remove members of BHW as a filter to either go into where all the filthy casuals are & one that will go into your "focus" inbox.

Exclusive Options to Paid members only :) ?

PS if this does goes through, I need DD to help me ensure my name stays on the "focus" side for @Zwielicht so he stops ignoring me
 
Sounds like an interesting feature. I would like to add that you can create custom prefixes, for example for conversations, or also be able to set sticky conversations, I think it can be done too.

It would be quite interesting to create something like that, I'm going to try it but I think that in xF 1 you could do something like that. Thank you for the idea and I hope the administrators take the initiative in mind .
 
I still can't believe you actually created the thread.

Perhaps we can take a look at this suggestions as part of an inbox overhaul at some point. Not that this is planned or anything like that, just that I will run this idea by the rest of the team next week.

In the meantime, if you're not using the conversation folders feature, definitely give it a try. We have a guide on it here: https://www.blackhatworld.com/seo/how-to-create-folders-in-your-inbox.1435246/
