Please help with private lines...

Hello,

Can anyone please help me out with an issure currently puzzeling me,
I have created a new Thread, in this thread im posting some content,
some of this content is only for a few persons,
so I made a (Private to x: ) (x=the character name).

This Works for one person, but how do I make one for lets say 2 persons?
Was thinking something like (Private to x, y: ) (x=first person, y=second person)

Will this Work?

Kind Regard
Martin Kristensen

In reply to mvk1979 (msg # 1):

Separate the recipient names of the private line with a semicolon, rather than a comma.  Or you could use the drop-down menu to send a private line (below the "styled text" drop-down).  Click on "multiple recipients," and a pop-up with check boxes for the possible recipients will appear.

Re: Please help with private lines...

Let me ask this in connection with the original question:

If a line is private to Player A, then does Player B (another player) see that there is an undisclosed line for him? Or does he see just nothing?

I remember reading something about secret lines or something like that - maybe that's also something relevant, but can't find the info now.

Player B would see nothing.

From what I've seen as a GM and player, depending on where the Private Line is placed, Player B might see a paragraph break or a post that seems very stretched. With a Secret Line, the transition is seamless.
