There’s an existing and rather popular feature suggestion thread discussing an option to send server messages to users. I suggest you comment/vote in that thread in order to avoid distracting or cannibalizing votes.

The closed suggestions you found should already be pointing to that thread – if they don’t, please let me know.

> It would be great as a PlexPass user to unlock a feature to send messages to the viewers. Information on planned maintenance (running every 20min or so) Restart information (one time message) and so on. This would be nice to have when you have a shared server. Vote on the poll, and maybe give a comment in suggestions to make this feature request better. Best regards Sleepwalker

Unless I’m missing some unique aspect of your suggestion, I’ll close this thread as a duplicate.
