As is, if the limit of people I could send a PM to was closer to 10 than 5, perhaps the 1 minute thing wouldn't be so bad, but at the same time, I do partake in multiple different conversations that I don't feel like letting everyone in on just to save 1 minute.

As is, it does not take 1 minute to type something worth typing if you can type 70+ words per minute. This thing took about 30 seconds to type. So not quite so icybreeze.
