    I have not seen anyone explaining how this could be done. I mean it's a sweet idea and all but I think it deserves another shot. I'm going to put this in TechSupport/Help thread in the hope that someone will take the initiative to brainstorm some ways to integrate this into continum.

        I agree. I've seen this brought up before but no one really did anything about it. I hate everytime i have to go in "Alt+Tab- Mode" and copy and paste everyones name into my ?messages.. It is very time consuming and it would be AWSESOME if we could only do it once.
        I've got an idea which ill try to work on .. Not making ne promisses thou

          There are 2 solutions to this problem:

          One its implemented into the continuum client itself. Another it works via a trenchwar bot.

          Continuum client Idea
          This is the way I'd prefer it to be implement. The reason is because it is more conistant and all the zones benifit from the feature and not just trenchwars.

          The idea would be as thus:

          The squad captain can get a squadlist of all the members in the squad. That information is obviously stored somewhere. So, a logical extension to this idea is that, the message would go down the list and leaves a message on whoever is on the list.

          The problem is with this method. The people who are currently squadjoined in the squad will get the message. As sometimes people in the squad would go onto their own squads, then they won't recieve the message. I personally don't think this is a big price to pay for a useful feature such as this

          Bot idea

          This idea would like any matchbot or bot that has access to the roster in the TWD database and use that list instead of the squadlist.

          It'd have to check if the person is in the squad to have the right to message the squad, or you could just get spammed by people, unless you think that is a feature and not a nuisance.

          The advantage is that the people who are in the squad but squadjoined will still get the message.

          The disadvantage of this is that only trenchwars who implemented the bot get the cool feature. Another one is that the message will be from the twbot and the the guy who sent it. But that can be fixed by just saying in the message so and so is leaving a squad msg: blah blah.

          Hope these help.

            Stfu lazy bastards, being a squad captain requires sacrifices and hard work. Now go out there and message 'em pilots.

            Ps. Each and every message should be special, to make them feel unique.

                FoN's idea #1 should be the primary upgrade in the next Continuum Client, whenever PriitK feels like making it.

                  I've talked to people from SSN that have that ability. I've also placed this topic on other forums. I have someone making a bot for us. Im not sure if we will use it but it's better than nothing for now. Until priitk wants to add it on to the game.
                  ssn has the ?message squad command, also other squad commands like ?squadonline -to c who is online in teh squad ur in, ?squadchat, ?squadbanner ?squadtrustee etc
