agreed...

it just had to piss me off. ecko_complex promised quite a lot for "the next version of messengerdiscovery", which was MD3 actually. but noo, he had to use the "i didn't have time and wanted to pleasure my users" excuse to release a little update of MD2 as "the new revolutionary MD3". he even promised to code in c++.

now, we're one version beyond v3, and it's still pure VB, and the features are far from useful. Sure, they have been suggested quite a few times, but the implementation lacks personalisation. a good example is the webcam recording: where's the video? another thing, file organizer... organizing files on sign in is totally useless. why? because that's not the freaking point to organize at sign in... :-/

the only promising about this was the scripting engine (do i hear someone screaming "gilly messenger" in background? 8-))... VBScript was the obvious choice to make, it's a very simple language and anyone can do quite a few things with it in no time (although, as -dt- said, JS would have been more than welcome). but the lack of personalisation strikes back... OMG OMG YOU HAVE COMMANDS... of course you have them, if you can parse outgoing data, you have commands, no matter what ==> ParseCommand is USELESS. SignIn & Signout aren't pretty useful either, since those can be detected using the parseincoming function.
what would really have been useful, would have been a total control over the sockets.... Or a whole bunch of events (like the old messenger api library), which allowed great modification... instead of just ripping the way plus! plugins work (heck, he even ripped the ParseCommand name!).
Other thing, you might want to enable VB plugin (DLL, yes) support, because i have trouble seeing people giving out their sources if they worked 50 hours on that script to achieve one little feature...
