Plan your syndicate battles in private

[Trev]

For those who do not know:

I would suggest groups install ‘kakaotalk’ a real time chat app.
Using this app at least you can plan your strategy in private. Don’t all thank me at once

if using an ipad, you download it from the iphone section, this will work

Good tip. What's your Kakao ID in case I want to lurk?

[Butt Futter]

parlingo works also

[Rocky35]

So does Kik, and 10 other chat apps out there.

[sister morphine]

Or groupme

[Paulio]

Or grope me

All you had to do was ask. LOL, j/k Sis

Kakao would be head-and-shoulders above the rest that we've tried but it has one major drawback: you can't remove a user from a group chat if they leave the syndicate. Has anyone come up with a workaround? Blocking a user only seems to apply to direct communication, not groups.

Make a new chat and don't invite them?

[Fluffanutta]

That is the obvious choice, yes, but 60 members makes that a rather unpleasant undertaking every time door meets ass.

I know there are syndicates already using kakao, how is it working out for you with this flaw?

The first time you run Kakao it will ask for a phone number for a device capable of receiving text messages. Enter your number and you will receive an activation code to enable your kakao account.

I know this may not be a common issue, but what if you don't have a device capable of receiving text messages? Well, there's an app for that! It's called Text Me! 2 (or just TextMe) and works on iPad and iPhone (though if you have an iPhone you shouldn't need it!). I don't know if that works globally, but it will work in North America. You can use your home phone number to generate a unique number for your device, and presto, your iPad is now a text message device.

Take that unique Text Me! 2 number, enter it into Kakao, receive activation text, and you're all set.

I've used Palringo and Kik and both of them are inferior to Groupme. It has iPad, iPhone, and web interface. It's easy to add and remove members. The size of a chat room is limited to 50 people, but you just send an email to support and ask for an increase and it's usually handled in a few hours (go figure - and it's free...).

I second that Groupme is very easy to use and also works with members overseas. My KA guild has people from four different countries who real time chat with no issue. You can easily post screen shots for intel from the game and post into the group.

[Smoothie]

I third that. We use Groupme to communicate. We have several different conversations. One for the whole group, one for the leader and officers, one for various team material (recruitment messages, rules etc - stored in a chat for easy access) and one for posting screenshots of final points scored and identifying inactive members after battle.

Consider my face palmed. Thank you, Kind Sir.
