I know this may sound silly, but I just have to ask/suggest:

Is there any way a feature could be added so we can send a private message to the all current members online at one time? For instance, looking at the members currently online, it would be neat to announce a quick net for anyone who wants to jump on the air at a set time. A private message seems to be a quick way to alert folks who are on the eqsl site.

Thanks and 73,

Hi Jeff

That sounds like a great idea ..... I for one would be up for it.

What about all you other guys?

You want our server to send out over 100,000 private emails every time someone decides they want to do that? Would you like the sever to be completely overloaded for maybe 24 hours or so at the whim of any forum user? I don't think so :-) But feel free to post a forum message anytime you like.

I agree Lewis using the forum maybe the easiest answer

Martyn.

Remember, no matter what happens they can't hang you for it!

I guess if a person wants to post when and where they plan to be, they should post a day before their planned sked, where should we post?
If a thread was started, there should be a way for that person to delete the post after it expires.
Any thought?
Thanks for this great forum, i appreciate it
Lewis

I think, it should be the solution for skeds and so on in the orga****ng a chat. There could be a room for all sked-wishers or something like that. Chat is not so server-overloading thing :)
