When I use the tabbed chats, all of my contacts have nicknames, yet when they're grouped in one Window I don't see their nicknames, just their usual screen names.
Is this working as intended, or did I miss something?
This is a limitation of Messenger Plus! Live. In future versions Patchou may be able to capture the specified nickname, until then just their nick name is shown.
Well, I dunno. If you're going to rename all of your contacts then it seems pretty pointless if you can't see their renamed names on the tabbed chatting list. Considering I'm 17, the majority of my contacts are around the same age and therefore use a lot of poor English and excessive amount of emoticons in their usernames. I'd much rather just see their name and have done with it.
