I made a rant post as a result of that. And it's now locked. For me it wasn't pointless: it got some steam released. True, after a while, it did what all threads like that do: degenerated into a big argument, so yeah, leave it locked.
Anyway, as for the thread you linked to, the suggestion to reinstall Plus didn't really fit the problem (though from the board, I can see why it was thought of), and my information just went out the window. I try to help, but I don't feel I have to set everything out step by step: things like using a program's menus should be simple to get. In fact, familiarising oneself with a program and it's configuration will allow even the most computer illiterate user to solve many simple problems like 'sounds don't play when busy' or 'contact list shows e-mail addresses'.
Actually, that should be 'OMG WTF msn sh0wz teh em@ails', as most of those tend to be.
EDIT: </rant>
Points i'm trying to make by showing that particular thread is:
1. First helper (you in this case but you are not the only one doing this) didn't post detailed how and what to check exactly.
2. Other helpers join in asking why wanna hear sounds whilst on busy? Poster didn't ask for this, he/she wanted to use the feature as its there to be used. You should be able to hear sounds whilst on busy if you set that in Plus!. Might aswell question why that feature is there then.
3. Nobody probably tested on their own system too see if this could be a bug.
4. Nobody asked about the MSNM and Plus! version.
[rant]What do i have to do to make people tread this thread??? Not many seem to have read it. Ohh, i know..lets try if it helps if i put IMPORTANT READ! in thread title...[/rant]
