Mass Mailings for Owners/Mangers or Groups to Group Members

If the Owners/Managers of Groups could Mass Mail, the members of their group. Prior to an event as a notification of said event it would help tremendously. Not everyone checks chat and the group posts all that often but most Glitches that i know DO check their in-game mail regularly. Thank You!:)

  • Very much a good idea. I think this might have been suggested already but either way it's worth mentioning again.

  • Please no!   Or, make it opt-in only!

    If I want to know what's going on in my groups, I check the group postings.  And I check them on a schedule that fits my interests.  I don't need my mailbox filling up with things someone else has decided are important for me to pay attention to.

    And if my mailbox fills up with junk mail, I can't receive anything from the auction until I go in-game to empty it.

    It would be fine if you had to subscribe first.  But no automatic spam mail feature for people in groups.

  • i didn't mean spam-like, i only meant for the groups you directly belong to. Not from groups you don't and ONLY from the members that run the groups you are already in.

  • I mean for groups I directly belong to.  

    I really don't want to have my mailbox filled up with mail from admins of groups that I belong to.  Unwanted email is spam.  If I want to know what's going  on in the group, I will check out the group pages.  But I really don't want the admins keeping me up to date based on what they think is a high priority.  

    As long as the admins of all groups you belong to weren't able to automatically send out email blasts to all members and as long as it was something that you had to request (opt in), I would be OK.  

    But some group admins have very little restraint, and assume that nothing they send could possibly be viewed as spam.  They are wrong to assume that.  I would like to set priorities for myself, instead of having other people decide that an event was high priority.

  • I like the idea, but players should have an "opt-out" option. As WindBorn has emphatically stated, some people do not want their mailboxes cluttered by group announcements.

  • Opt-Out/Opt-in is perfectly fine. My main point was as it is currently when you want to try an organize something more often that not you hear "crickets". SO there needs to be an easier way to contact ppl. concerning groups.
