PSA: How to deal on-site with multiple members - minimalist - Aug 13, 2016

Hey, it's come to my attention that people are unaware that it's possible to use a middleman without the use of IM services.

Yes, you can communicate with multiple members through the use of PMs! It's how any CCed chats work, including e-mail. It's old school stuff, here's how you do it:

  1. Add multiple recipients:
    Spoiler (Click to View)

  2. Type up the body of your message and add a subject, send it:
    Spoiler (Click to View)

  3. Here's what your message will look like to others:
    Spoiler (Click to View)



Then, when others reply:
  1. Use the "reply all" button instead of the "reply" button
    Spoiler (Click to View)

  2. Write your message and send


Thanks for reading, I've been group chatting this way for awhile now and I'm surprised that not many people do this. Deal safely!

Shoulda released this when you MMed a deal involving me, ha. I realized I didn't have the Reply All button because of a userscript. This is really useful though, thanks.

Not going to lie, I've never actually used this feature while on any MyBB forum. Completely forgot it was a thing!

Wow, good job Minimalist.

Hopefully this can clear out some of those pesky scammers now.

I will deff. be doing this when I purchase anything.

You might as well talk about how useful the folder editing option is in segregating conversations like this from other atypical messages, as a post script. ๐Ÿ˜

I'll write up a guide on that right now.

But pardon and f*** me, I don't know what that even means.

Sorry, was in the world of word porn. ๐Ÿ˜

As a side note to this thread, you can also mention about how you can create folders in your Private Messaging area like:

This can help organize and segregate conversations into different category for better organization and future reference. Hope this helped.

I didn't even think about this, thanks, but won't really work if they have special or invisible characters, right?
