Hey Daniel, figured I'd start a new thread for this question for future searchers. In your last reply you said, "We will have survey result based sending in the future. More critical to us is things like closer integration with message bopard products."
What does that mean exactly? You are trying to get buzzcast to email board members? Or are you trying to integrate buzzcast into ubb.x or ubb.threads? As I understand it, ubb.classic is limited to doing this task at 200 members at a time. Is threads' capability of this higher as of now? How about ubb.x? It would be nice to roll both those services into one. I'm excited to find out!

Well, yes, we will be rolling them into one more tightly integrated service, most likely altering the control panels of our various boards to have buzzcast functionality.
I hate to be vague, but while we are commited to improving buzzcast, and making it MORE rather than less a part of our discussion fourms, we don't exactly how we are going to do that. Technically of course its no problem, but exactly how to best use buzzcast's power and have it make sense in the context of a forum is somewhat difficult.
We'd love to hear any ideas! Most likely OT and UBB.x would be the most likely to receive integration first, since combining two hosted solutions is quite a bit easier.
You can mail as many as you want from UBB.x - keeping in mind that it will contribuite to your bandwidth use overall. Threads can do something similar though I am not sure how it 'throttles' to prevent a mass mail against the server from looking like what may be a DOS attack

I am very interested in this and would buy buzzcast the minute its integrated into the control panel for UBB classic.
