Is there a way to send a single message to your entire group of online friends?

Thanks in advance if you know the answer.

I don't think you can do it (it might be consider as spam) but I know it can be done through the news in group etc.

thanks. Not worried about the spam because it's chess related and going only to my personal friends on the site.  Just wondering if there was a way to email all your friends at one time. Maybe another member might know but you are probably right because I didn't see an option to message your friends

Hey there..I too was looking for an option to send a single message to the selected members in my friends list. Few of them wanted to play daily chess when I was available for playing. It's been a while and I think I'll play few daily games. After digging further into it, looks like there's no such option available. No worries.

It's not possible. You can send a group chat though

Copy paste

There are many other things I can do, but wish to be able to send messages/invitations to friends only.

This is not the same as sending a group announcement OR other avenues...

Is there a specific reason for not having this? Is it something on development side proving difficult or impossible? (Thanks for response)

Copy paste to hundreds of friends impractical and chess.com traditionally might also flag/ban us?

This used to be a big issue at some stage...

Too easy to spam with group messaging, though I can't say that's specifically why something like that isn't implemented
