O.P. [request] better /ping
Currently /ping sends a message to that user, and waits for a reply. The problem is that some people don't know what is going on if they don't have msg plus. Three times today, I have pinged someone, they don't actually have msg plus, so they just copy and paste my message back to me and now msg plus thinks they have msg plus installed.

So I am suggesting that msg plus sends a new ping message. Instead of the current
"[those weird chars]ping" or whatever
it should be
"[those weird chars]Hey, I'm just testing something"

Just a bit of social engineering, so that the people that recieve the message think they know what is going on.

Ask if you don't get what I am trying to say.
