Need some instruction on friends

nathangdad · 03-28-2008, 08:08 PM

How can I send a message to all of my friends at the same time?
My fear is that I might delete them all at the same time.
When something interesting happens I want to send out a group
message.

I was wondering the same thing Nathangdad.

i would like to do that also.

Maybe this is a good a chance to ask as any. Does the friend thing do anything? I mean does it have a function like seeing posts quickly within the forum from people you have added as friends or somthing, I have people I dont know or ever read a post requesting to be my friend (not that I mind) Was curious if i was missing some feature of it.

What? Billy, you don't know???
Eh
Neither do I.
It is a good question though.

I could be wrong but I believe you can only send messages to as many as 5 people at once, friends or otherwise, the limit is 5 or something like that. I don't believe you can send to any more then that let alone everyone on your friends list? Here's

to us all finding out?

inquiring minds want to know!

When you go to create a private message....do this

In the To: part.... for example

To: Chris;Billy;TexasT
Subject: Hey
Body: Want to go to the range?

use the ";" after each name.

Ok, I just clicked on a members name and then clicked on send a private message to (that persons name here). When it went to the page, I saw it says that you can send that message to 5 other people at a time right, under the BCC line. I knew I saw it somewhere. lol
