I thought it would be cool if we could give members the iootion of forwarding a pm to a text. While I don't use PM'ing a ton, this could help increase usage and add a more "social network" aspect to NS. Any thoughts on if this is possible, how hard it would be, etc.?
 
I'm all for this, not really as a text but more like a notification you'd get from Facebook, (texting costs $$). It could be... Part of the newschoolers app (cough cough).

Quit with the "newschoolers needs and app" shit. No it doesn't the mobile site works perfectly fine. Just bookmark it or set it as your home page and it basically the same thing as an app.

While I agree that the mobile site is great, some people who payed for the app feel "cheated" or want it brought back. I bought the app, but my reasoning is that I payed to have mobile access before the new mobile site was released.

NS didn't develop that app, you paid some dude $.99 like 4 years ago, he gave up on it, go yell at him if you want, but NS doesn't need to spend the time or money developing an app that will do the exact same thing the mobile site does. I'd much rather see them use those resources for far more important things.

As far as PM to texts, it's a good idea...until it's abused. You're basically giving the internet your phone number. Plus, a lot of the PMs I get are paragraph long questions (sometimes longer), I would hate to get those as texts.
