Which mesenger do you preffer?
 
Which messenger do you preffer or use to chat to your friends? I like Yahoo! Messenger the most but I also use MSN.

EDIT: Ah crap I was going to make this a poll but I forot to check the little box which says "Yes, make this a poll." Er mods, can you please delete this so I can change it?

EDIT 2: Ok, I guess not. So the choices in the poll would've been:
1. MSN
2. Yahoo!
3. ICQ
4. AIM
5. Skype
6. mIRC
7. Other

MSN man. I have AIM and I hate it, I only use it so I can talk to Ambi and anyone else who doesn't have MSN.

Godlesswanderer 03-16-2006 04:17 PM

I have MSN, Yahoo and AIM. The only one I use everyday is MSN.

TomFrogman 03-16-2006 07:56 PM

MSN Messenger is by far my favourite and most often used Messenger. It's just so much cleaner looking and better designed than AIM and Yahoo. I honestly can't see why AIM is so popular anyway... terrible setup, if you ask me.

oddveteran93 03-16-2006 08:30 PM

The thing about MSN that I hate is that it gets spyware on you computer. And often, I get messages from "MSN" that there's a new BETA and it's actually a virus. Or when I'm chatting with my friends a message appears: "This link is so cool check it out" and it has a link which contains viruses and porn. And no my friends dont give me links like that. It's a bloody bot.

What is it with the flood of pointless polls these days?

MSN, of course. Because I'm worth it.

Havoc 03-16-2006 10:54 PM

Oddveteran... MSN doesn't get spyware on your comp... if it does then it is because your stupid enough to click those links you get sent.

I use MSN primarily and use Trillian Pro for AIM & Yahoo and sometimes IRC.

Wil 03-17-2006 11:31 AM

I use MSN. I have AIM for talking to a certain person, though, but rarely. She doesn't usually talk back, either… but I persevere. I used to use Trillian, but it was awefully slow.

Godlesswanderer 03-18-2006 05:15 AM

I didn't see the extra options in the edit of the first post. I also use skype every now and then but only for voice messages. Also mIRC isn't messenger software. It's basically chat room software.

Skype and MSN

I use msn, but a pretty pointless poll

WHO CARES WHAT ANYONE USES UNLESS YOU GET THEIR NAME THIS IS STUPOD AND POINTLESS. YOU SHOULD HAVE ASKED FOR NAMES SO WE COULD ALL TALK TOGETHER.

And like so many before him, the once decent sounding new member took a turn for the worse. God bless the internet.

I don't actually prefer AIM, but it's the only thing that works on my computer.

Hey Rich, you told me to check out a version of MSN or something a while ago. What was that?

I don't really give a crap. I made this thread to ask people their opinions and they can share names if they want. If you have a problem with this thread take it to the mods.

It was probably Windows messenger. My friend has that on her computer, and her computer is shit :p.

Wrong, chibi chap. We can bitch to you because we're not very nice people.

See the little goblin, see his little feet. See his little nosey-wosey, isn't Gobliny sweet.

Maybe it's because this topic is lame and boring with near nil discussion.

Will that workify on an iMac computer?

Rich 03-19-2006 03:08 AM

What's wrong with your original MSN Ambi? You could try the web based version:

http://webmessenger.msn.com/

If nothing works, you could get a new account and/or re-download the actual MSN messenger program.

Ah, excuse me forumers. I forgot to mention it in my welcoming thread, so I'll say it here instead, considering how I behaved earlier.

When I moved to the UK, my behaviour became slightly more eratic than it had been before. I've always been hyper and I suffered from mood swings, but it got a lot worse when my family were forced to move from our home in the Ukraine. My mother and step-mother were very concerned and spent quite a lot of money getting me to see a private pyschiatrist.

After quite a few visits, discussions with my family and observations of my behaviour he diagnosed me with dissociative identity disorder. You can do some research if you like, but basically I have multiple personalities. I've been told by my family and doctor that I have at least three distinct personalities and though I was skeptical at first, I began to realise they were right when I found things written in my journal that were in my handwriting, but clearly not written by me.

I have difficulty remembering events sometimes, or what I was doing at certain times, this is due to my condition, in fact, I can't even remember posting that message with the caps on, its probably why I forgot to mention this earlier too.

So anyway, if I post and it seems odd, then its a result of my disorder. I will not apologise for my actions because it's something I cannot help, I hope you understand this and take it into consideration before you attack me in future because I am sick, and still far from recovery.

Abe 01 03-19-2006 04:47 AM

ok i belive you :D

Oh okay then. I also get pissed off too easly. It's just that there's a lot of negativity around me and I find it hard to stay calm sometimes.
