Ping lists are easy.

Just create a text file, in some word processing program or simple text editor.

When a poster wants to be on the PING LIST, just cut and paste their SCREENNAME into whatever text file you started.

Put a semicolon between each username. You can use commas instead, but then you can't leave any 'blanks' in their name. So stick to semicolons.

When you create a new thread, after you post it, click on any of the posts (yours will be number 1, that's easiest to use), and for the TO: field, simply go back to the text file you made and saved, and CUT the string of SCREENNAMES and then PASTE them into the TO: FIELD. That's all there is to it.

WAIT! Don’t cut and paste. Copy and paste. If you cut, your original list is deleted.

You can save your list pretty much anywhere. Freepmail it to yourself. Email it to yourself. Save it to a file on your hard drive.
