Well, I try not to send out unimportant mass messages. I would just like to have some record of the messages I send out when there are more than 50 players online. I understand the reasoning behind not updating 100-200 history files, and that is why I suggested only writing it to the first 50 so at least it would be stored somewhere. Does the mass-messaging process the list of selected players in the same order they appear on the playerlist? If so, then saving to the first 50 could guarantee that it is saved at least to buddies/staff, so you could more easily find the messages later. It's not the optimal solution but I'm hard-pressed to think of a better one.
