Just to clarify, that is 75 messages per folder. You can make additional folders.

Yes, I know. I was trying to keep that post to a single sentence. You can make 3 additional folders. But you still have to actively manage your inbox or set up rules for your grand total of 4 folders.

I just thought of something: Make folders easier to navigate to; Auto-setup a fifth folder called Game PMs or something; Make it obvious for new users; Dump all Game PMs there unless a user changes the settings (or don't allow this change).

How do you get a Tech to shed some light on this?

They tend to wander by here. But if you wanted, you could contact ThrushAAX who manages the PM Teammates tool (viewtopic.php?f=527&t=159621&start=45)

Also, SirSebstar at least watches the Powers of the Inbox thread (viewtopic.php?f=57&t=48225) cuz he fixed the first post when I pointed out a mistake.

Concise description:
Add an in-game button to alert teammates via PM that there is new in-game chat to check.

Specifics/Details:
Quite often in team games, I find myself adding questions or notes on strategy to the in-game team chat. However, I am then required to go out of the game and PM my teammates with the game number asking them to check the game chat. I suspect I am not the only person who goes through this series of actions.

It would be beneficial to stay in-game and just click a button, such as "Alert Teammates" or something, to notify them via PM which game to check on. Then I would not be flipping in and out of games just to send PM's about those games.

How this will benefit the site and/or other comments:
I suspect many others follow this same series of steps when playing in team games. I also suspect those people would appreciate the added efficiency of the ability to stay in-game while notifying teammates.

There is a greasemonkey script for this

This is correct.

Also, I don't believe there is enough support for this feature to push it through the suggestions process (the lack of posts on this thread is evidence in my favor). I'll go ahead and archive this, but feel free to bring it back out if it garners more support.
