is there a way to have some preset so that i can send a text to a "group" of people at once? i know that an interface for responses would be complicated and i wouldn't want that, but just a quick way for me to have quicksend groups or something?

so that i could just compose a msg, add "group1" and it be sent to those 5 people or whatever?

If you send a text to a bunch of people once you can just go back to that conversation and send a new message and all will receive again.
 
but is there a way to BCC these numbers or can you put them into a group somehow? if so I cant figure it out. mine always have everyone's number posted. cause I forward a bunch of smutt!! :D

What are you even talking about?

"mine always have everyone's number posted"

your what? your group texts? because that doesn't happen or make sense.

you dont get out much do you?? :confused: Im talking about "Blind Carbon Copy" when you forward or send several people a text at once. I was wanting to know if anyone knew of a way to do this without everyone seeing all of the other numbers it is sent to just like in an email. I know when my friends send me one like that I cant see the other numbers they are sent to. and it does make perfect sense it just may be over your head so you dont need to respond we can let someone else do it. but thanks!

but can you confirm the recepiant can see them all to, im pretty sure they are just listed to remind you it was originally a group text so any replies to those replies will copy everyone again,

im almost positive on their end it always looks like a one on one convo
