Can this be done?

I couldn't find out how, maybe i am overlooking something or do i have to hack?

I looked on vBulletin.org for you but there seems no hack for it, so I think you must request it maybe it's just possible with vB ;)

actually there is. cuz i have it installed. but i can't find it. its only a file and edit admin/index.php. thats it.

I once made a custom hack for a client of mine. But it was specificly for 2.3.0, because it uses the vbMail() thingy. So rewriting the email feature to have an extra option to mass PM. - Yeah, it is possible, just have to know how :)

One that would be easier on the server is to add a "pmisglobal" field to the pm table and just disable requesting a read receipt and stuff for it. Then modify private.php to show it at the top of the page. Kind of like sticky private messages, or private announcements.

What really would be cool is a duplicate of the PMS but then used as a global announcement thingy.

Staff members being able to send global PM's to members, regardless of their settings, seperatly from the normal PM system. This way you can include personal information like activation links for usergroups or reset password or usergroup joins, etc. / per usergroup.

A mix between the current PMS and the AS.

Thought I would revive this one as a nice trip down memory lane. Interesting some of the features that we now take for granted that were once hacks. :)

Rob can we PM users with HTML in it?

Rob can we PM users with HTML in it?No. In that the html won't be parsed.

However you should be able to include an html code snippet, but it will just come out as plain text.
