I very much prefer webDip's simplified messaging system over any alternative I've seen. I'm a little flabbergasted that our original poster has not seen an alliance of more than 2 powers. Such alliances are extremely common in my experience

It enables players to send a message that appears to be the same two players but really is to just one, or two messages that are different. This to me, although it is different to the in-person game, requires more diplomatic use to persuade someone the way it is coded now, thus making it more fun (for me at least). However, I agree it would be interesting to see it implemented as an option in the future, but I see how that would be tricky.

This is unfortunately a difficult change to make given how the in-game messaging system was originally structured. It would require a complete rewrite of that section of the board code, while also maintain backwards compatibility, never mind the fact that it would be replacing a system that has proven stability. All that's to say that it's a hard thing to prioritise with limited resources. So, although it's almost a joke answer at this point, if you want a new feature, the site is open source—you can develop it yourself! If you're not a developer, consider helping out with the site in some other way to help take the load off those who are. As the banner says, the Mod team is short staffed and need new volunteers to help with the running of the site. If you have the desire to see the site improve, there are ways you can make it happen.
