Because of the amount of moderating people do on this site, the PM messaging really needs a carbon copy so if I am sending this

"Dear Antrax, ralphmerridew, Dragon Phoenix and Talitha. You are the mafia. Your job is to kill off all the townies. Each of you has a different method of killing. Good luck"

Id like to be able to send the PMs to all players at once.

is this possible?

I'm pretty sure this has been mentioned before, but I can't remember what was said about it at the time.

It's not as bad for the mods as it is for groups of more than 2 players who need to discuss.

Apparently this is not easy, Jeep has looked into it at scum.

Thye simplest for the moment is send the first one, go back one page, change the addresse and so on.

It's not that it's technically difficult... it's difficult to make it look reasonable and work reasonably well.

How different can the look be? Couldn't we just put a semicolon after everyone's name? I feel like I'm missing what you meant.

Oddly enough, if you click on ;'s profile and then click on find all posts by you get "No topics or posts met your search criteria"

Well, I had a pick box show up for multiples. Also, I couldn't find any character that isn't allowed in usernames that I could use as a delimiter.

We could disallow commas in usernames (I'm sure the users will forgive us) and use those.

Well, that's cool and all, but I think there's maybe a bit of a bug. ; has a post, and you should see it if you click on "show all posts by" in his profile. But the message says there are none.

Probably not a big thing.

There are problems with the search function in general. I'm not sure why, but they definitely exist. Something's been wrong with the indexing since day 1, and I never managed to rebuild it properly.

You mean all 96 printable chars are allowed? Shocked

PS Would people object to having 6 or 10 text boxes for the recipients? Felicitous

jeep: Couldn't you just find a character that isn't used, and disallow that character?
