Quick emoticons panel!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! RE: What features are missing in Plus! Live? by Antwan on 06-28-2006 at 12:25 AM
I have a sugesstion : I might be good to add a feature to block chosen smileys. Sometimes, peoples uses annoying smileys to remplace letters, and what they say can't be read anymore. RE: What features are missing in Plus! Live? by ramik on 06-28-2006 at 05:17 AM I agree with Antwan on both things, block specific smilies and signout buttons will be wonderful RE: What features are missing in Plus!

Live? by CookieRevised on 07-11-2006 at 11:49 PM The group blocking is removed because of a bug in Windows Live Messenger itself. Until MS fixes that bug, it is very doubtful the group blocking will return. Unless Patchou finds a workaround, but last time he spoke of the group blocking he said he had to remove it because of it.

Hi, RE: What features are missing in Plus! Live? by user13774 on 08-24-2006 at 05:39 PM
I just discovered another feature that is missing. RE: What features are missing in Plus! Live? by runawaydick on 08-26-2006 at 11:17 PM There is one thing that I can think of that would be a good feature - how about a shortcut key for "sign out"?? You used to be able to do it using boss protection but now you can't - it keeps you signed in. It would just be a simple combination like Ctrl+Shift+Space that would sign you out automatically - instead of having to go to the main messenger screen then file then sign out. Just a suggestion!

How about having an icon to the left of your contacts on your contact left if they have MsgPlus? RE: What features are missing in Plus! Live? by Basilis on 06-05-2008 at 12:52 PM Nice idea but I believe it should be added in the Contact card for example. Not in the contact list. Or in the Contact Information window. RE: What features are missing in Plus! Live? by Evostance on 06-05-2008 at 01:05 PM But who ever views contact cards? Ive always seens them as annoying and pointless. I click the green man icon by accident and i get a popup thing that is slow and annoying. Its completly useless lol RE: What features are missing in Plus! Live? by Basilis on 06-05-2008 at 01:07 PM Yes but it would be annoying in my opinion to have the Messenger Plus! logo everywhere in the contact list. RE: What features are missing in Plus! Live? by Evostance on 06-05-2008 at 01:12 PM
No more annoying that having that orange circle thing when a contact updates their profile RE: What features are missing in Plus! Live? by ahmetgns on 06-05-2008 at 01:26 PM Messenger Plus! cannot check whether the contacts have Plus! or not automatically and without your notice. Because as far as I remember from one thread here, Patchou doesn't want MsgPlus! to use msn protocol for purposes like this. You can check if your contacts have Plus! or not with /ping command. Just send that command to the contact. If they have Plus! installed at that moment and if they didn't disable Pong! replies to such requests, then their messenger will reply to you with a Pong!. But you cannot always be sure about this because your contact may uninstall Plus! at any time after you performed this check. RE: What features are missing in Plus! Live? by Basilis on 06-05-2008 at 02:58 PM I think other add-ons can check if the other contact has installed them without needing to ask the other contact. RE: What features are missing in Plus! Live? by Evostance on 06-05-2008 at 05:38 PM
Can it not be set to ping all your contacts on sign up and then ping them when they log in? RE: What features are missing in Plus! Live? by Patchou on 06-05-2008 at 06:02 PM
