Question about Group Management.

Are they? I'm pretty sure they're just based on upgrade groups 3p1c and ub3r. Never mind, you meant th number of users you're allowed to PM at once. I don't think that ever changes.

Hmm....I think it's possible to give Group Owners their own group which would then have access to email sending. However, that would allow them to email any member. So I suppose ultimately this requires a custom coded solution. I'd love to have it working but unfortunately it's not a high priority right at this moment.

I think I'd also prefer a PM to all group members instead of email. Some members have their accounts set to be emailed when a PM arrives anyways.

I have it disabled for all groups including admin. Since I'm the only admin now I think I'm going to change it.

I'd like the PM all feature, would that also allow group leaders to do so as well?

I don't middleman any deals on- or off-site. Please don't message me requesting my past services and certainly don't fall for anybody who claims to be me.

It's total post count, not just subforum
It is for Omniscient probably or the staff members.
It's just like the awards page, where you can see who has purchased an award.

It's there, just not available to everyone.

It sounds like it'd be more beneficial to set up a mass-PM option rather than emailing IMO, so it'll catch people who don't check their email as often as well as people who don't check HF as often (but have PM-Emailing enabled). It'd probably save you some troubles that I'm sure people would create with emailing.
