I hope this is the correct place for this.
Is there a way to PM multiple people all at once?
Off my Buddy list for example.
Or a "private" thread that could be followed and commented upon.
PITA trying to line something up with multiple people on just PM's.
Thanks in advance!

I just tried several means of specifying more than one addressee in a PM and the forum software always tried to interpret whatever I put in the field as a single addressee.

The easiest way of spamming multiple members with a PM here would be to compose the message that you wanted to send, select and copy the message so you don't have to type it again, and then send the PM to the first addressee.  Start a new PM to the second addressee and paste in the message that you previously copied, and so forth, sending a separate message to each member on your list.  If you envision doing this multiple times to the same group. send them each a PM asking that they email you their email address and providing your own email address in the PM.

It's close enough since it's not in the GD forum! Wink

I've never seen a way to do a mass pm'ing.
Even mass emailing is not allowed via the forum.

Email I guess is the only option. Just hoping to keep such communications together here on the Page.

It would be nice if we could send PM's to everyone on our buddy list at the same time rather than having to use eMail, cut & paste, but ...
