Ok, maybe this is answered somewhere on the site and I didn't see it, which is quite possible, but how do I send a  PM to all my buddies?  I'm looking for instructions on how to send one personal message to all those listed as my friends.

Thanks.

To send a PM to multilpe people on your Friends List:

  1. Bring up your list of Friends ("My Account" > "Friends").
  2. Click on the check box next to each Friend you wish to PM, or click on the "Mark: All" button.
  3. Click on the "Actions: PM" button.
  4. Answer "OK" to the "Are you sure..." prompt.
  5. Key in and edit your PM.
  6. Click the "Send Message" button

There was a limit added to the size of the groups to send a blast PM to. This happened after one too many "mistakes" clogged the system. I think it is 25 members to be in a blast PM? The way to deal with this might be to make smaller tagged groups.
