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.

It’s the same as a “ping” to Ping or no one in particular.

King Henry V outraged the pious of his day by using the exclamation “God’s eyes!” or swearing “By the Eyes of God!”.

Ah, yes. On the next episode of “A Newbie Asks,” let’s discuss the cosmological essence of “do:pings.”

That would shatter normality.
It would invoke...them.

Hi Ralph, Welcome to FR. I like your homepage.

Since you asked about “all”, I thought I would say hello.

Now it's done! The "All" feature is malfunctioning, or has been disabled. I can no longer post to "All."

what will we do now?

"All" is a very big subject. This thread could be the tipping point.

Yes, there is a consensus on "All" being the tipping point. In fact, the consensus is so unanimous that all debate on the subject of "all" has hereby been disallowed.

All those in favor, say *I* .......

I suppose I might have to concur, as apparently my "All" functionality has been revoked.

Man, these mods are mean.

Oh, nevermind. It's working again.

Anyway, "I."

It doesn’t really go to “All.”
If it did, the internet would break.

And All'goracle would receive the email and make sure that it *does* break!

And are there other 'special' words, besides 'All'?

There are many special words, but "All" outdoes them all.
