Mass PM's for private leagues

JDB, can you make it where owners of a private league can mass pm the whole league?
We vote on a lot of different things throughout the season such as coaches polls, rules changes,etc... as well as MVP and other awards at the end of the season.

It's such a pain in the buttocks to send a ballot to each owner one by one. And posting in the forums doesn't get near the response pm's do.

In the USFL, we use Survey Monkey to get one poll with many categories

we use survey monkey as well but to get the word out for owners to vote there is way more participation if the poll links are sent pm than just posted in forum or even on the facebook group page. I also like to remind owners of deadlines or certain things and it would be nice to have a group pm option.

i think that is the way to go until JDB allows people to do Mass PM's for private leagues.

you can post a link to the survey monkey poll in the forum but you won't get as many people to vote as you would if you pm the link individually. I've been doing tons of polls in NCAA for the last three seasons and it's pretty evident

Why? Just post in League General that new poll is out with the deadline and let it run its course. If you only have 25% vote, those who disagree should have voted.

we average about 15 owners voting if i post it on forum and facebook group page. We average about 27 if i pm each owner. That's why it would be nice to have that option. I'm not trying to argue with you, just stating why i and other league owners would like it

I'm not trying to disagree also. Just saying if you just post it in league, you find out who really is active in your league. My opinion, worth absolutely nothing.

oh i totally see your point, we have a ton of active guys that just don't always check the forums all the time. I really can't say why it works so much better on pms but after doing like 20 polls the evidence was obvious. Either way i will do what i do to get the best results, i just thought it was a good suggestion by BP that i've talked to JDB about in the past. Carry on :)
