[Discuss] Any plans to introduce a new island?

[Christopher Clarke]

Yes -- I have asked for this feature too, only to be shot down
repeatedly. I've yet to see any good reason why there is no reply to
all link.

The #1 reason I requested it is for communicating among allied
generals. When you have to go to the list of all generals every time
and click the box for each ally, it's way too easy to accidently
include an enemy.

Personal lists would be even better -- and using the "users are all
idoits" excuse for not adding a
feature is really lame IMO -- but I figured it would be a lot more
work than just a simple reply to all link.

So, no offence Tom, but is there really a good reason not to do the
Reply to All link? If so, then I'll gladly shut up and continue
clicking little checkboxes.

Thanks,
Chris
