What do you use Plus! for? 

Is it for any feature in particular or is it for all the features that make WLM better? Please post what your main reason is for using it!

Mine:

It originally was for the color names but now it's for chat logs, lock and a whole load more things :)


RE: What do you use Plus! for? by Basilis on 12-03-2008 at 09:40 PM

Skins mostly. It is the greatest feature ever.


RE: What do you use Plus! for? by FlameFame on 12-03-2008 at 09:49 PM

Contacts on desktop, more accounts logged in from the same computer, customization of alerts, skin, ...

I'm only sorry that MP!L doesn't have option to allow more than 3 file transfer at the same time, as i wrote here...

tab chat and all the other wonderful features that comes with it. too many to talk about... Hi all...:wave:


RE: What do you use Plus! for? by ahmetgns on 12-08-2008 at 10:03 PM

For almost all its features, including POP3 e-mail account checking, messenger locking etc. I feel I have to use it especially not to see the formatted contact names with codes in them and to receive emotion sounds properly. Also I sometimes apply skins & I use some scripts. However three features that I rarely use are window transparency, contacts on desktop and quick texts&icons, and two reasons for not using the last two features: I can type fast enough and I don't use many emoticons.

RE: What do you use Plus! for? by RebelSean on 12-16-2008 at 08:35 PM

Everything it has to offer to be honest, because without it, messenger wouldn't be the same :).


RE: What do you use Plus! for? by Link_of_Hyrule on 12-16-2008 at 09:18 PM

I mostly use it for tabs and custom away messages and statuses but I love the audio emoticons those are always fun and some of the other features are also very helpful.


RE: What do you use Plus! for? by valeria-elfo on 12-16-2008 at 11:11 PM

Skins, Scripts, Chat logs and Colour codes  =]

RE: What do you use Plus! for? by mufaa on 12-25-2008 at 11:45 AM

I use it for many things:
- Encrypted chat logs,
- Transparency effects,
- Tabbed Chats (greatest feature evaR!!)
- IRC style message short cuts
- Custom status messages

and loads of other things. Messenger Plus is the best mod ever. Other IM just pales in comparison to WLM because of Plus!


RE: What do you use Plus! for? by Sim Kai Long on 12-30-2008 at 02:58 AM

I used it solely for gmail checking. Gmail notifier fails cos I have to re-login at the page itself. The checker script goes straight to inbox.


RE: What do you use Plus! for? by NeSsiKa on 12-30-2008 at 03:15 AM

Messenger Lock!
Chat Log Encrypting


RE: What do you use Plus! for? by user27089 on 12-30-2008 at 06:44 PM

The main purpose I use it for is the tabbed chats; without that, Windows Live Messenger would cause the desktop to be so cluttered, to the point of me not being able to use Windows Live Messenger without installing it first. Another feature that I use every now and then is the 'copy email address' feature, it's probably one of the most useful, understated things in the whole piece of software.

It's not that I don't want to use the other features, it's just that now I'm pretty much away from this 'Messenger' community, I don't have any real need for using Windows Live Messenger that often, apart from having the odd informal chat with a client.

I think a main reason why I have Messenger Plus! installed on my system now is because of habit. If it wasn't there, then I'd probably feel a little bit uncomfortable, as though something is missing. I've been here for over five years and been using the software for slightly longer, so you should be able to get a slight idea of what I'm talking about.
