Disable group messaging with MMS?

[skeelo]

As I'm sure many of you know, when sending a pic via MMS and recipients reply back, everyone in the group gets the reply as well. I really don't like this at all because it violates privacy and is not good for my line of work. Is this just the way MMS works? Is there a way to go about sending pics via text so the entire group doesn't get replies? I am currently using GoSMS app.

Sometimes I think its based on your network or something. I've seen complaints like this sometimes in these boards, but in my experience, whatever SMS app I've tried, when someone replies to a group MMS/SMS I've sent, I alone receive the reply. In all my years using a phone, sending out group messages, the first time I've heard of this problem is just this month.

When someone sends you a group message, do you see who else they sent it to? Because in my case the recipients don't see the other people I sent it to.

I do not see who the replies were sent to, just complaints from people saying they started getting all sorts of replies after I send the message.

I just want to be able to mass message a photo, it's odd that you can't do this without using MMS, as far as I can see.
