Hello i am using Rules with flag module. I have a rule set up that when someone flags a comment a system message is displayed. this is only displayed to the flagging member. Is it possible to show a message to all users?

Thanks

No. This is true of Drupal 6, 7, 8, etc. because message are set per-session, not globally.

If you want a global message, then of course it's possible but you will have to design your own mechanism for that. As an example, hook_help() provides a global 'message' that is displayed on a per-page basis. You can look at how that's done as an example of how to implement your own global notification.
