I asked for a way to post message in all games at once when
I was about to shut server down.

J.P. added this to the shut-down screen .. but never told me how it worked or that it was there.
This is my only real complaint as a beta tester all these years.
Things get added or fixed and you had to test everything again till you find it

For those SysOp/GameOps out there who like me .. didn't know ..
Leave your message in the black box under the "time to shut-down".

This is great .. I hope in his next endever .. he will let his testers in on the fixes and changes , that will allow for a better comunications between programer/testers.

The shutdown message feature has been a part of the server for... as long as I can remember. Like a year and a half now, if not longer.

Yes I remember asking for that over a year ago , as I've been part of the beta for well over 4 yrs now (maybe more..old age creaping in).
But was never told it was there .. you cant tell from looking at it (lack of flashing curser )

But now I know and will use it whenever possible.
