Not an assumption at all.

kthx.

You implied that me and others were implying that there shouldn't be ads when infact that wasn't what we were saying. Obviously ads should be used to generate revenue, but spamming out generic useless websites JUST to display ads is rather embarrassing.

I love how cookie implies things and then when corrected, he responds with all this technical crap to try to confuse you. Watch he will no doubt respond and try it again.

kthx.

So who said it then? Anyone in this topic?

He was obviously talking about me for one, but used "they who claim" so he can claim it wasn't me.

Discrate in 1 Corner and Cookie in the other.   as far as im concerned if ya dont like the directioon in what there doing with these toolbars, just dont install Plus  or install it an then remove the toolbars,

My objection to this is that they say the "apps" are to generate advertising revenue. I'm not saying people aren't going to use them because toolbars are generally shit... I'm saying people aren't going to install toolbars for the sake of a few MP!L buttons. People that do have the toolbar probably don't care. You can't be reaching as many users as you could by other methods.

It would make more sense to put some text-based adverts in the preferences windows etc. IMO

I think that's a good idea instead of toolbars or additional installers during the setup. If you can make it to hit the user emotional with a nice story of Plus! telling them why to support the Messenger Plus! Project I think a lot of them (me include) would donate - maybe not via PayPal because of being evil to wikileaks - some dollars.

Somehow I've never seen that since I use MsgPlus V1. Am I wrong?

Anyway guys, I hope you will be release a good piece of software soon.

Nice holidays and greets from Leipzig.
cheers, Biller
