MASS PM

First topic message reminder :

I would suggest to the people who created forumotion that they create an option which will allow moderators or administrators to be able to send a Private message to all the members of the forum(eve those who are not a part of a group). I know that you can send a Private Message to groups but I think it will be a very good thing if you could create such an option that you can send PM's to everybody who is registered on forum. I hope that you will consider my proposition and make such an option available. Thank you for reading my suggestion.

yes of course so much easier

yes pm to a certain group will be a usefull feature

i ll vote yes

You can already do this. Go to ACP>General>and I think news letter. And johanmandal you can also send a PM to certain usergroups.

oh thanks

i havnt realy needed to do a mass pm yet so i didnt see it

Oh no problem. Glad to help you

i voted yes

Why? You can already do this.

Why can't you just create an announcement instead?

Yes I would love to have this

I hate just making PM's to Groups but not all of the members

Good Idea Luky =)

I have a forum with almost 1000 users.

I noticed that a big number of them barely ever check the mail they used to register on the forum so newsletter isn't really useful to me.

If I make a sticky, few first members will see it and then it'll be forgotten.

Even if I post something on the portal in red bold letters size 18, half of my members won't read it.

So yea, mass pm would be greatly appreciated.

You could make a hidden group where all members are part of and send it to that group, however, it would be too slow. I voted yes.

Honestly - i thought we already had this option. Apparently not.

I voted yes because that is always a good idea to notify members about something important. Well done Luky.

I voted yes, that functionality could be very useful.

This is already a feature...

Id love to see this suggestion happen!

(so much easier than Mass Email, and adding people into a "Members" group

Yes vote

Naughty nessa double posted

Voted Yes

I thought it was already possible with groups because on one forum I am on I sometimes send bulk PMs out to everyone via the groups but not everyone since some of them are not in that group/s. But with everyone in the forum, definitely and I am voting yes on that one, it would be much easier.

I voted yes. I would like to see that option implemented on to Forumotion Forums. Not some members get the E-mails either because they don't check their e-mails very often (they only check them because they are registering on a forum and they need the validating link to log-in), or they just can't be bothered. This would be very useful!

I think only the administrators should send Mass PMs.

I aggree, letting other non-mod users using the Mass PM funcion could cause some problems to the forums.

Yeah, like mass advertisements and such.

I voted yes.
This is a great idea Lucky.

Edit: ~ To Rok

You should watch who you add as mods and admins on your forum,if this will be the next update.

Voted yes, great idea~

Voted yes

Bump

Love it. I hate having to add all members to a usergroup, this would be a fantastic addition.

Love this and need this!

I think that it is a great idea.

Definately yes! It would be brilliant as, as other members have noted, the mass email usually just goes to junk/spam and most people don't read them. A PM would entice people back to the site and hopefuly pique there interest to come back again

I vote yes, it's a good idea and it's better than newsletters.
