PM multiple messages
 
I've recently started a RPG and have been PMing members with... private information.

My progress has been hampered by the manditory 60 second delay between messages. I can understand this delay, you don't want flodding, but is there any way to send 3-8 PM's simultaniously?

You can add everyone of importance to your buddy list, and then send a group pm thing to everyone on it. Well, I've never done that, but I'm pretty sure thats how it works.

Can we send a group pm?

Anyways we could just steal the hotmail idea, sending like
To:
CC:
BCC:

That way you could send to alot of people :)

Go with Majic's description, as that is how you can do it.

Josh, to make your suggestion work, would require A LOT of changing to the PM system, something I'd rather not do. It has crossed my mind before though.

What does the CC and BCC mean? I have never understood them, you can do everything in To.

CC means Carbon Copy, I.E Sending it to someone else along with the main recipicent

BCC means { Damn I forgot what the B stands for....} Carbon Copy, It means they get the email but can't see who it's from.
