Not possible
Maybe I am misunderstanding the question, but when my dad used group chat to send an invite/help request for my mom's birthday on his iphone. I received it as a text, and as people responded I got texts from them too.

It shows up like this in iMessage, which is very convenient, but only to/from devices that useiMessage:

but you still get all of the messages from all of the participants, I understand that it isnt as convenient to look at but all the info is there right?
Or was that what you were complaining about InRareForm the fact that it isn't as pretty?
(I am not minimizing the "pretty" factor. It is easier to keep track of for sure. I assume google babel is going to do this for cross platform communication).

yeah pretty sure he wanted them grouped if possible. if you have more than 2-3 people in one and they are not grouped I imagine it sucks if there is an active discussion going.
