Usually three, though I've been told as many as six which may be a record.

AM, if it's a function of the number of recipients I'd do multiple pings to a smaller number if I knew what the number might be. Wouldn't help my own my comments page which becomes unmanageable, but might help everyone else.

I don’t mind. Rather that than no pings at all.

It doesn’t bother me that your pings are multiples really, just makes it a bit harder to keep track of things on my comments page but heck, counted amongs the hardships and tragedies of life, the multiple pings aren’t even in the top million.

I feel bad my own ping lists because they each take up more room.
