Combine regular "inbox" and job-related messages

[stanzukowski]

Right now the regular message inbox and job-related messages are completely separate. That doesn’t make much sense, and it makes for difficult management of communication between buyer and seller. For example, I communicated with five different voiceover artists through messages, and then I hired all five of them. Once the job started, some of them communicated with me through the original message, and others communicated with me on the messaging system for the job itself.



It would be much more helpful and more intuitive if you could see all the messages from one person in the same place, instead of having two separate messaging systems.

Patronizing response aside, I disagree. It would be a simple matter of providing some visual cue like an icon to distinguish between types of messages in a single list, or even a way to filter a master list so you could look at just shopping-related messages or just general messages.
