    Most members one here are a part of some sort of social circle and there's barely any way of communicating directly with more than one at a time. The only way I can think of is via blog comment sections, even though they technically aren't meant to have off-topic conversations, and the WAYT thread but if you post too much it's considered spamming.

    What I am proposing is a feature to somehow add multiple users into a PM and if they want to leave the discussion they can. No doubt this would give Mibba a stronger community and the ability to create stronger friendships.

    I totally agree. I also think it'd be a great way for co-authors to communicate. :)

    @ kim wonshik.
    That's what I was thinking, but we have a whole group written story area to enable people to do that.

    I think this would be useful for more practical reasons than keeping up with someone's social circle (which sounds kinda clique-y to me Shifty). I don't do this, but I know a lot of contest hosts send out PMs as a deadline reminder to contestants and to update on any announcements/changes made to the contest. It would be easier to send out a mass PM instead of having to PM each contestant individually.

    I also feel like, if this were implemented, it would be a better alternative to the Group-Written Stories forum. More recently, the board mods have been trying to clean up the boards by deleting inactive threads, threads past 200 pages, etc, and aside from the thread for finding co-writers, you wouldn't really need threads for group stories if there were group PMs. Personally, I'd rather have all the information about a story I was working stored somewhere more private like a PM instead of in a forum where anyone can see it and know what's coming up in the story.
