Several times in the last few weeks, I have posted an opening post to a thread, which then of course received feedback from a variety of users. In several cases, the users replied in similar or closely related manner. However, I could only reply to one of them in the API sense of the word. I usually fell back to replying on one of them and tagging the other in the conversation. This immediately eliminates the threaded nature of the conversation, though. I would love it if one could reply to multiple posts at the same time. In conversation on this topic,1 @darnell suggested that to prevent abuse by spammers, it might also be a great premium/developer feature. So: feature suggestion: add multiply reply capability to the API!

Footnotes

  1. In which, notably, exactly this issue came up: I wanted to reply to separate posts by @darnell and @annatarkov but could only actually reply to one of them and had to tag the other in the relevant post. ↩

I want to chime in and say that this would be a great feature. The use case Chris mentioned happens all the time for any moderate to heavy user of the service. It would be great to offer it to those of us who truly need it. Thanks for your consideration.
