Default just a quick suggestion

i was sending some quick p.m's the other nigt and was frustrated that you need to type or copy and paste all the receivers usernames. would it be possible to have the names of people on your buddy list(or similar) pop up when you entered a letter- ie the first letter of their username?

i am with yahoo for my e-mail and when i enter a letter into the recievers box it pops up with all the names and addresses corosponding to that letter , so if i put in 'v' my name would pop up and you can then select the ones you need.

sorry if there is an easier way to do this, that i'm not aware of, and the rather long-winded explaination. just something i was thinking about.

Good suggestion. I always go to my buddy list first and then select who I want to send a PM too if it is multiple people but it would be good if their names popped up when going straight to creating a pm.

Why not store it as a text and just cut and paste it into the name tab.
