[Release] IMoffline by the andyman on 12-15-2006 at 05:21 PM

IMofffline


Whether you interpret the name as Instant Message from offline or "I'm offline", this script still has the same function: protecting you from accidental use of the new offline instant messaging features introduced in Windows Live Messenger 8.

IMoffline asks you to confirm sending an instant message if your status is set to appear offline.

It is designed to remind people who sign in with the status appear offline that they are still appearing offline, and to remind people that whilst appearing offline any contact they send a message to will know that they are actually online.

This is a good idea, but (I haven't checked this yet) IMO it shouldn't ask for EVERY message you send... Maybe just once per contact per "session"?

Great, so simple and professionally done. Great idea and I can't think of any problems with it, it has been well coded (Y).

Nice pun on IM btw...I like it =]

the andyman, GREAT idea. How hard would it be to let user specify the status that they need reminder for.

So this code can be used to remind the user if they are Busy/Idle/Away /etc (depends on what the user sets).

Not sure if I made myself clear.

Thanks for the script.

This is a great idea and very well created! I'm using it! :D

Good work, andyman! :)

Thanks again for the great feedback, if anyone wants to get the downloads counter for it in the scripts database up then download from http://www.msgpluslive.net/scripts/view/205/ instead of the attached file.

This would be very possible and certainly an option I will consider in the future (i.e. yes I will add it but it may take a while before it is added as I am quite busy atm).

This script is awsome  GREAT work andyman :) i think this script should already be built in messenger plus! :p

This script is no longer being developed. Although it will continue to exist it is recommended that you upgrade to Offline Protector to benefit from more features and new upgrades.

Offline Protector includes the same function as IMoffline but also has the function of YOU'REoffline and has been extended for them to work better together and be more helpful.

To download or find out more about Offline Protector please visit its thread.
Thanks :)
