No Pre-warning
I received no prior warning this was going to happen, if so i could have send a team message

the old way, explaining this to the team , as some of my players especially the younger

players do not know how to find the the team page or the forum for that matter , so now i

have send a message to each team member individually explaining how to reach the team

page and read the team messages this way in the future.

Sorry that was a whoopsie. I noticed it was back, but i clicked the link & it took me to my Team Forum Page which is now a real sh**y stituation!!!! Considering only Premium members can reply in the Team Forum u r going to have segregation in ur troops. Tricky way for GK to introduce New Paid Members to the site

Sad_but_true... Were non premium members able to post messages to their entire team before? I was under the impression that they were unable to use this former function... Not sure.

Pretty sure they could because one of my non-premium members used to send messages to the whole team and so did my previous co-captain before he upgraded his membership.

Yes, you can unsubscribe from that annoying automatic team forum notification feature.

My understanding is that the everyone gets the message, but automatic notification of new messages is optional.

I'm not a big user of messaging the entire team and our members do so even less. So we're not looking at any major impact. It will be interesting to see what folks think of it three months from now.

Mr. M... That's what I thought I was saying. The message is posted on the forum but unless the that box is checked, players will not get an alert that a new message awaits their attention. Someone on Club Captain already wrote into GK and received a response- something about the team message feature being misused by team members flaming each other and eating up server space or some crap like that. So I'm not too sure another message complaining about it will reverse policy.

Maybe suggesting another enhancement like removing the alert option.... Na.  !!

@mrm
I am not going to let you have it. I am getting responses via the forum from the same team members who communicate with me consistantly. At least some members can ignore me without putting me on ignore. The audience here is pretty much loquacious, garrulous captains and their ilk. Not perhaps completely representative of the GK membership in general. I have already made my peace with the new system and have moved on. I doubt I would pay for the ability to mass message my team anymore, though. I can send individual messages and there is a public forum. What more communication do I really need?

@mrm
... and that is the point of this discussion group, not? To float ideas past the collective of wisdom of the hoary-headed captains and their fire-in-the-belly co-captains.

Team Forums
If Gameknot don`t come up with a way to delete postings in our team forums and we now have to communicate with our team members via team forums it`s really going to clutter up this box much more than it is already....
