Hello!

I am sure it was once talking, cant remember if it was on the D-list, but i consider that is necessary a "Reply to All" option in the message list, or at least add the election to the contact list to send message "To One or More"

Is difficult to message or reply two characters who aren't on the same message group, i got a message today and all i can do is sent a response to each separately.

We really need this.



peace!

Please wait for the forthcoming overhaul to the message system and see if it resolves your issues.

Also, in future, when making feature requests, please make them within the appropriate forum, formatted in the appropriate manner, if you wish them to be considered seriously by the dev team.

I didn't wanted to do a request until i was sure this wasn't talked about or at least to have the required support.



Thanks for response!

I think this has been the recommended procedure, has it not? Talk here to solidify the request, then post it in FR in a semi-completed form.

I would like this, too. What's particularly irritating is when you can't reply to the group the message was sent to because there's no way to select everyone involved, as when a non-ruler sends a message to more than one (but not all) rulers, for example.

That was the case that happened to me, is easier to a lesser noble to address some rulers, but to reply to the lesser noble and the rulers (on same message) is impossible.

I did not find the formal request but I want to say I also think this would be good.
Someone told me once Tom is against a "Reply to all" button and I totally agree with it.
Though, often we send messages to whole realm and receive answers to all realm too but, when we are going to answer, the original message is lost, not below like when we are answering.

I believe that another button with the option to "Answer to whole Realm" when the message was originally sent to whole Realm is a bit different than the "Reply to All" option and would be great to have.

But this will kill yet another mechanic quirk I find so much entertainment explaining in character.

When I have to send multiple batches of messages to ensure I get everyone in the initial contact, I enjoy coming up with in character explanations for why I didn't just send one batch of messages.

My adventurer guy has "reply all" but my nobles don't.

You have "reply to all adventurers in the vicinity". You don't even get the "send to everyone in the realm" letters at all.

I still think that "The Whole Realm" should be like any list and should have a button for it.

Maybe newbies will abuse of that button, but than, we never have so many newbies and we can for sure teach them.

We could have the button disappear when the realm reaches a certain size, like when the yellow "are you sure you want to send to your entire realm?" warning appears.

Do you mean the experimental new message system people could try out a while ago? God I hated it...
