Our community’s superusers have asked for the ability to send batch DMs (ie, a message to multiple receipients in one go). 

It’s because they like to chat to one another privately sometimes! (Probbably complaining about the communty managers…. :laughing: )

Maybe this could be applied using user group permissions in the control panel? It’s not for all, just our regulars.

There’d need to be a limit on how many can be sent. Say, 50?

Hey @m4rc - thanks for submitting this idea. Just to clarify, do you mean sending a ‘broadcast’ message to multiple users (each conversation is still individual between sender and receiver), or starting a group conversation?

Good question @daniel.boon 

My assumption is multiple users but as individual messages. (I’m not sure a group convo would be a good thing to encourage! It could lead to less being discussed openly in the forums.)

Hello @m4rc Thank you for posting this idea. We have made the decision to park it for now because it didn’t get a lot of votes and replies.
