can someone make a script that counts how many people have you added to their contact list? even make it so it can display in personal message eg "1000 people have me added to their contact list!" the list of people can be found in options -> privacy -> view...

i currently have 1,224

I believe there is a script that does this already.
* scott2010_h goes to find it.
[EDIT] Found it: Online - Total - Blocked PSM 1.0

That does not display the amount of people which have added you to their lists.

------------------

Scripts do not have access to the "Reverse List". So, no, such a script doesn't exist and can't be made.

That is: it could be made, but it would be an extremely dodgy and inproper way in retrieving the number (=> opening the options screen of Messenger programatically, and automatically navigating to the Reverse List view and then counting the number of items in the listbox control).

lol

Yes. It's possible and would be extremely hard to do, nevermind buggy. Plus, both people would have to have the script.
So sorry, I don't think it's going to be made.

I don't think they would if they used Cookie's method

I think they would. Although it would count correctly, how would the information be transferred to the person?

is there anything at all that can count how many there are, even if you have to open the list first lol

The Reverse-list is a part of the Messenger Protocol, MSNP. The reverse-list is the list on contacts who have you on their list. Your contact doesn't need Plus! for you to see if he has you on his list. This is supported by the Messenger server.

Plus! has access to this list (in code) through some secret interfaces, but you cannot use it through scripting.

as said scripts don't have access to the reverse list this might not be relevant but if i click plus icon>contact list clean-up it lists who has me...could you get the value of that Column and add a count to it, it might be a bit buggy but it could workd
