Inviting friends without using email

I have a core group of friends -- as in IRL friends and family -- that play a lot of games together.  Is there any way to "save" them or something of the sort so that when I start a new game, I can just click on a token or icon or their name or something to invite them without the whole, "What's your Roll20 email address again?" thing?

I'm not sure how you handle communication, but I usually send join links by direct message on Discord.

I do the same thing as Kraynic, though I honestly think it's goofy that I need to do that for friends who are already in Roll20 games. This would make a good suggestion for the Suggestion Forum, that we be able to create friends or group of friends so I can invite them directly from the game I just created.  I'd open the suggestion, but I've lost all faith in the Suggestion forum of being any use at all...

I'd recommend a discord server for your group, and then you just need to post the invite link to your server once instead of several DMs

Depending on the group (as you know) I do that, too; but, when I'm on top of my game and prepping and send the link out and then a bunch of discussion happens, people always ask for the link again...pain in the ass.  It would just be a lot easier if R20 allowed me to send the invite and it went straight to their R20 profile so they can always find it (via that little pink envelope).  It doesn't need to be this hard. LOL

LOL I created a channel on my game's Discord server with read-only access for all members. I use it for for posting game background, house rules and announcements.
I opened a suggestion for this, but Roll20 said "it did not receive the required 10 upvotes to further the request" so they took it down

I've had that happen to me a few times.
