Is it possible to PM multiple people at once?

Wait...

You don't mean to tell me that you've been individually PMing those UFOs to every subscriber for the past x months, do you?

Good god, man.

Yeah. You should be able to by separating the names by commas.

Well I was confused about that, because our man Freedan has a comma in his name. Confused

[Edit: Hmmm.... is there a way to PM to All? Because if that was the case, I would start doing UFO pro bono. Very Happy I love doing the magazine, I only charged gems to

a) stimulate our budding TE economy

and

b) to pay for the minor hassle of individually pm-ing people.]

What about setting up a system for Moderators and Administrators Only that allows a "PM ALL" feature, but only PMs users who have posted "x" number of times?

Like, say, everyone who has posted at least 10 times?

We will not enable a system that allows people to send a PM to all registered members. In my opinion this would be spam in all forms as no prior consent has been explicitly given by all members to (for example) receive the UFO mailing list.

It's not a silly little rule, it makes sense, nobody wants to be on a mailing list they didn't ask for. We have email for that. As awesome as the UFO mailing is.. it's not going to fly that way.

I will look into the sending a PM to multiple people, perhaps separated by semicolon, like many other systems.

True. I hadn't considered it that way.

Besides which, imagine the kind of chaos that power in the wrong hands could lead to. Rolling Eyes

The sad thing about having so many ideas is that, statistically speaking, many of them will bad. Laughing

I was talking about myself, tay Very Happy . That's why I'd rather be a follower than a leader. If people can stop you from doing stupid things, then you don't do them. Laughing

Yeah, but you're a matronly figure. Very Happy

It's like we don't want to tick you off, but if we're about to do something really stupid, you call on eFlare and it's like a "Your father is going to hear about this young man!"

And ofcourse if eFlare gets boxxleman involved it's like mean old Grandad Bill who still believes in beating kids with hairbrushes.

(boxxleman if you're reading, you know we all love you, lol!)

[Edit: Same to you eFlare! Smile ]

[Edit PS: "I couldn't find a switch, but here's a rock you can throw at me."]
