Hey there people.. nice to be here

Actually i have a suggestion to make. I hope this is the right forum to do so.

I was thinking if it is possible to add 2 (or 3) tabs in the "Send an instant message" window that pop-ups after you right click the Messenger's icon on the taskbar and clicking the option there.

Those two (or three ) tabs will seperate the online buddies  from the offline ones. So let's say something like that:

• tab named "Connected". Will include all the buddies connected with the MSN Network ('Busy', 'Away', 'Idle', 'BRB', 'Out Launch' and 'On a Call' budies will also appear here)
  
• tab named "Offline". Will include all the budies that are currently offline.
  
• (not really usefull, since you have the other two) tab named "Full List". It obviously display your whole buddie list.

That's my suggestion, hope you liked it and i really hope to become a feature in a future MsgPlusLive release

Yes
And the suggestion sounds quite good too.

Thanx RaceProUK! nice to know that there is another one who found my suggestion usefull.

Hi! I've been using msg plus since 2003 when a friend told me that I should use it, and I've never regreted it.
But in the last version, there are some features missing that were REALLY useful, there are 3 in particular I can remember now because I used them frecuently:
1- The shortcut to the custom emoticons window (ctrl+down), really useful because it was the only fast way to see ALL the emoticons.
2- The "disable personalized status" feature for every single chat window, because you could set an status with an auto-message for everyone and chat with someone you want (the filter does the same thing, but once you disabled the auto-message it stays the same no mather what happens, like closing the chat window)
3- The "block a group" or "unblock a group" feature, because it's really annoying to do it one contact at a time.
I hope you could add them to the next version again. I really miss those features ='(
Thanks for your help, and sorry for my english.

The ctrl + up/ctrl + down shortcuts are still there; they are used to scroll through your previous IMs (the page up and page down keys no longer do this). The feature that opens the emoticon window when ( is pressed I think is making a return in a future MP!L version.

Yes, I know the ctrl+down shortcut is still there, but I used it for the emoticon window. To scroll the previous messages I only used the ctrl+up.
It was my mistake, I should have only wrote about the emoticon window.
Thanks for your reply!

The emoticon window appeared when you typed '(', and it wasn't changeable. You must have used something else to change the shortcut.

When I first installed plus, I used the '(' to see the emoticon window.
But then, I think it was a year ago, one time when I was upgrading msn messenger and plus, the new option appeared (ctrl+down shortcut). It was in the preferences.
I couldn´t use the '(' until then.
