Send to all by SnuZZer on 11-27-2006 at 02:12 PM

Hi.
I'm from Denmark and my english isn't good, but I'll try.
Is it possible to make a script which send a message to all online contacts?
If it is, can anyone tell me how, then?

I think there might have been a script to do this somewhere in the Scripts forum but I'm not sure.  The problem with this however is the limitations imposed by MP!L and WLM with the amount of messages you are allowed to send before an anti-spam feature kicks in.  To do this right you would need to use timers (and know the lengths of time to get around the limitations).  I hope this helps whoever tries to make this script.

Hi.
I have searched in the forum.

Oh.. That's right, but can't it be "fixed"? Just lige "unlimited nudges" have been fixed?

It's whether people want it fixed. If there is a workaround discorvered for it, it opens up the potential for people to spam the hell out of others through scripts, exactly the reason this filter was put in. Doing ANYTHING with all contacts can lag the PC anyway. I made a script before that just OPENS all contacts chat windows (if they were online). Somebody could make a similar script and then modify it so that it places the "/all" text in the text field ready and all you need to do is send the message.

This still has it's limitations because of Messenger itself having an anti-spam feature which will not allow it I'm sorry to say.  The only way to get around this is like as I said using timers and only doing blocks of online contacts at a time.
