PM's limit if five participants

[dpkimmel2001]

Is there any way to expand the max of five participants in a PM? I never had to send out something to more than a couple people in the past but today I tried sending one out to all of the players of the 2013 Chase for the Cup Game that I started. It told me that I was limited to five so I ended up having to create numerous PM's all with the same information. Thanks.

I will take a look and see what I can do. Did you also try adding 5 additional people once the conversation had started? I'm not sure if it limits total participants entirely or just the number you can add at a time...

No, I had created one PM with approximately eighteen participants. When I tried to send it it displayed that only five were allowed. I then created PM's of five, five, five and three. I never tried to add more after sending.

I set this to 20. If you think you will be needing more than 20 on a regular basis, let me know and I'll see if I can set up a new group with a little more slack. I don't want to set it too high for the whole forum, since that is one of the way spammers can do their thing--if the board has too lax of a limit on PM recipients, then the spammer just starts a PM and enters every single username they can find to add to the thread.
