 RE:  Essentials Public Beta release
Stop acting like these are set in stone, start emailing people and start complaining to the  right people

  Negative. Canada.

I don't see any advantage in the new approach compared to how it used to work. Selectively appearing offline to people is nice... but why would you have to appear online to someone before you can message them? Even when you're sending an offline message to someone who isn't signed in to Messenger at all you will have to appear online to that person first. It's like appearing online to a brick wall.
  What's worse is that if you want to talk to 1 person while appearing offline, it blocks your entire contact list. After that, when you want to actually be online, everyone, including the people that you had previously blocked, all are unblocked.
 
Not liking this way of handling "blocks".

  Synchronization between the web settings and the client seems to be awfully slow. Just wait for it

  Planning to do so, there's a notepad open with a growing file of notes   . Doesn't mean I can't post my frustration here too though.

  Argh, you can indeed receive messages     
Then it just block... everyone... when appearing offline...

  I tried before with Toxn, and he didn't receive my Messages, but I'm receiving messages from my other account as if I had never blocked it   
* blessedguy also is confused

"Appearing Offline" and "Blocking" are the same thing in WLM 2011

  But the case is it doesn't block, you continue to receive messages. Try it
