Nickname Change Notification by Kareeser on 03-31-2004 at 11:02 PM

(I'm dreadfully sorry if this has been posted before... I ran a search on the bugs forum, and nothing came up, )

Anyhoo.

I enabled name change notifications in MSN Plus... and when someone changes their name, it goes:

__(New name)__ has changed their name to __(Old Name)__

when it should be the other way around...

Just notifying you...

Do you use the original english translation? If not, specify in what language this occurs...

that shouldn't matter because the text is
%s has changes his name to %s
or something similar, so you can't change %s with %s....

Anyway, Kareeser, tell us what language are you using in plus and if that happens always and with all of your contacts.

hmmm... damn... I was indeed refering to %s... but didn't bother to look if they were different variables...

in fact %s aren't variables, just "replacers". the variables are in the source code and the 1st one is replaced by the 1st %s and the 2nd variable with the 2nd %s... this is how C works

Hi,

I noticed a similar problem...
I'm using MSN version 6.1.0203 with msn plus version 2.54.74, in french...
I sometimes get:
(Newname) has changed his nick to (Newname)

But sometimes it works fine...
