My idea was to make a Messaging system, which works. Now I wanna convert it to work across places in the same Game/Universe/etc. But my knowledge of DataStore only tells me that you can't send Instances.

how I currently send messages:

1. You use the GUI to send a player that message.
2. The GUI sends a new StringValue to the player, containing that message.
3. A Different Page on the GUI shows you all your messages.

My idea on converting this:

Setting the list of messages as a Table.
Send the Table over DataStore
BOOM! Goes cross-place

Does this seem Do-able?
