Update: You can now address your PMs to "admins" or to "mods" to contact all of the site administrators or moderators respectively.
If you wish to contact any of us privately, use the PM system and address it to "Davion; Kiasyn" and all two of us will get the message and reply to your requests with as much haste as we can. Please allow at least 2 days for a response.
Wouldn't it be easier to whip up a group address for Admins inside the PM system? So that instead of typing out all 4 names, people only need to address it to Admin/Admins/Administrator/Administrators something like that?
A group address isn't a bad idea really. Though rather than hack up the code just for this site I'd like to see about working that in as a QSFP base feature. The ability to create PM aliases that are assigned to a batch of users would prove handy.
This would prove really useful for oweners/implementors of MUDs that all had accounts here, so for example, say you wanted to send hate mail to your favorite mud's owners. You'd just type in the TO box the name of the mud and it'd send it to whoever was the owners (A.K.A. a group system)
While the implementation of what I have in mind would technically make that possible Zenn, we won't be setting up any aliases in the system to allow that to happen. :)
If you wish to contact any of us privately, use the PM system and address it to "Samson; Davion; Asylumius; Kiasyn" and all four of us will get the message and reply to your requests with as much haste as we can. Please allow at least 2 days for a response.
Wow, boy am I special! If I send one PM within 2 days I'll get back four? Cool! I wish I could do that with cash instead of PMs at my local bank… oh, wait, that wasn't just written to me, now I'm not feeling nearly as special and priviledged.. on the other hand, why would the admins here want to each respond to every PM sent to the four of them? Do they just not see each other's names in the sent to line? …

I'll second that motion! :)

I was thinking more the opposite, site admins might be able to use that to send PMs to everyone within a certain user group, like addressing a PM to all members, or to all "waiting validation" or..
If this thread is going to remain stickied, then I think it should be made up to date - the initial post dates back to before Samson's resignation. No point in trying to contact him if you have an admin issue.
