To be honest, if they're not checking your news page then they're not that interested in your group.
GOWEB, I agree with you completely. I think everyone should be checking their groups on a weekly if not daily basis.
But since time is of the essence for most players, and we know most players check their stats (a lot) on the Bungie web site, I figured that that little envelope icon would be a good enticement to pull them further into the Bungie web site (and also impart the group message). It’s another way to increase group activity.
I see this new Administrator PM capability as yet another way to build the Community. Those of us who create and manage these groups are stewards for the Bungie Community. I want Bungie and its web site to thrive and grow. And this request as yet another opportunity to do just that. It’s a simple hook to pull them in and get involved.
And as Pimps at Sea said, if the Admin PM capability was abused, then players could and would just leave the group. And he also said ONLY the Founder should have this ability. I agree.
If you tell me this request is on your to-do list, then later say that it was too difficult to accomplish (or some other reason not to do it). I will understand and accept that fact and move on. No hard feelings. I will continue look for opportunities to build a better site for the good of Bungie and everyone using the site.
Thanks, dave
