multiple pm's att'n Russ

Site Ideas


In the MUTI club we play a forum game which requires multiple secret pm's to one,some or all of the players in the game(up to 16 players).
The game is very popular.We have had up to 1,000 forum posts and numerous pm's per game in the past.
The facility to send the same pm to multiple players by typing their name into the address bar was very useful for this.
This facility no longer exists.We now have to type in each name individually.Therefor,since the update to send the same message to different players is laborious and time consuming.
Could we have the original facility re instated please.


Yes, to put it bluntly the new PM system is pants. But I guess it uses less storage which is the main reason for the change.

The mechanism for messaging the whole club currently available only to club leaders could be made available to all members. (As it is in clans) If it is abused, the club leader could kick any miscreant.

You select members from a list, and the message goes to all selected.

No, I was just floating the idea.

I'll look at it right now as this is a very simply change.

@venda

I should be able get this released tomorrow.

I was not happy making the mass messaging option available by default, so the Club Admin will need to opt into this from the a new Club Settings page (available from the Club Admin page)

Once enabled, a "Club Messaging" option appears in the Club Home sidebar.

I'll post again here once available.

Thank goodness this didn't get bumped up to Ghost, who seems to believe he's in charge of everything.
