A Viable Option for Group Messaging
For years, group leaders have been wanting to message their group members for important announcements or whatever. Bungie has given us A LOT of features with Bungie.next, but this feature hasn't happened yet. I doubt it ever will.
Perhaps I'm wrong and it will come during this beta, but it doesn't seem likely. I can't see a messaging system supporting 100 people, much less 1000. It would bee too cumbersome.
I might have an idea to solve this issue. What if a thread were created in a group that has an option to "Notify all group members" (perhaps an option reserved for the Admin only?) where members of that group are actually [i]notified[/i] of that thread, rather than messaged.
What do you guys think?

4 RepliesIn terms of native Bungie.next functionality, I think your suggestion is the best way to solve this particular problem. A few positive 'howevers' occur to me, though: 1: It doesn't seem terribly difficult to implement an 'announcement' system that allows one way mass messaging, and replies on a one on one basis. If the intent is for one way messages, perhaps Bungie can sqeeze something like this in. 2: The ( hopeful ) release of the Bungie.next platform API may allow enterprising individuals to create a tool that would allow this. For the purposes of preventing spam, its distribution would have to be fairly tight ( by forum Ninjas, to forum Ninjas and group leaders, etc ). I know of a few guys here in #scripts I'm sure could put something like this together :)
