Erm? You can message more than one member at a time, but it takes a while.
What? I'm not talking about emailing the club. I'm talking about sending out a "group message" to more than one member. Far as I know, you can only message one member at a time or send out a "club message."
D.
You can message 2 at a time just by adding another name at the top where it says recipients. Note the plural.
The group e-mail kinda works. When you begin to enter the username in the recipients area, WGT's program checks your friend list and offers you suggestions. Some of the time, you'll get the name you're looking for; other times, their search routine won't find the person you're looking for. Forget about completing the name manually. If it's not in the search list, you can't include that recipient in your group e-mail.
The current work-around for me is to make the message as general as possible and "copy" it. Then enter the recipients names and pray they all come up. For those that don't, you'll need to send them a separate message by loading their profile, clicking "send message" then pasting the general message in the message area. You'll have to manually re-enter the topic, however.
One more downside to group e-mails. If you reply to one, you cannot select the recipients. Everyone in the group e-mail will receive the reply. If you incorporate this, make sure you mention it's a group e-mail in the text. Nothing worse than having a fellow member complain about having to play "with xxxxxxx", when "xxxxxxx" is a recipient of your group e-mail!
Maybe, when pigs sprout wings and learn to fly, we'll have full group e-mail capability. For now though, you're just going to have to deal with the work-around.
