Newby asks "Ping to 'All'"?
Posted on 06/19/2008 4:45:14 PM PDT by Uncle Ralph
In the 'pings' set in some comments, besides the expected member names, I have seen the word 'All'. Does that 'ping' the message to everyone who already left a comment on that thread? How about those who comment after? And are there other 'special' words, besides 'All'?
Thanks.

All does absolutely nothing. Its a kind of vanity thing that All might give a %$^&.LOL.
I always thought it meant that the poster was inviting comments, or asking everyone to make sure they see the post when they read over the thread.

I want to register "All" as a screen name. Ping to All equals a ping to me. (Then I will rule the world!!!) All your All are belong to us.
To: All
if one pings “All,” and then another member of “All” pings “All,” does it cause some sort of self-reinforing feedback loop? Couldn’t that be dangerous?

There’s also the weighty issue upon posting of, “Do I really want to post that image of my [brother/buddy/boss] in that tutu?”

We deny gravity, therefore, it doesn’t exist for us.

Ah yes, forgot the images of myself sleeping.
Hideous.
I forgot to ping Xenalyte and Slings to this roving band of hilarity.

Welcome to FR, Uncle Ralph. I, too, used to wonder if pinging All would go to every FReeper on board. But then I also used to think, while still a lurker, that “pinging” someone made a little bell go off like you're in the kitchen cleaning your oven and “ding-ding” someone has called you back to your computer. I was told that this can happen but I have yet to figure it out. ;)

Only Free Republic could carry a thread with such a simple question so far.
