Messenger Plus! is a professional addition to MSN Messenger, please don't make it a spammers toy or a lamers tool box =\...

If you want to add any of this, I believe you should make a seperate program. I think it's time for Patchou to filter out all the annoyance plugins...

its not to annoy. i mainly want this just to show lyrics and stuff. worked great with MySweetNix! noone complained because it changed and didnt lag.

so lets say i wanna change it to "how r u doing im doing fine thank you" but in different parts example:

how r u says:
hey

(second later)

doing im doing fine says:
hey??

(second later)

thank you says:
are you there??

some of you say that this is already possible in Plus! but i didnt quite understand the instructions so if someone could reexplain please.

Posseidon is trying to make a plug for that I think.

It does annoy people, it flashes your contact list every bloody time you change your name. Apart from that, people that are using Messenger Plus! to it's full extent will get flooded with popups, as it notifies you when people change their nicks. Furthermore, Microsoft has set a limit as to how many time you can change your name within a set amount of time.

RE: Switch nicknames...
I'm doing this at the moment... my first test plugin.. :D.. just testing some stuff... and I've made my plugin do scrolling nicks... :D... and the next thing i'm adding is to change nickname from a text file... to do the exact same thing as U want it to.. to show lyrics from songs... and other stuff..
I'm currently using the #6# pause to do it... it has to be at least 6, coz a limitation in MSN is that U can max change ur nick 10 times a minut... so...

Now my problem is that I want to have more power over my plugin.. so I'm trying to add some API at the moment... I might release this on this forum when I have completed this plugin...

Im not gonna get into a argument but i dont see how i would personally be annoyed if im talking to someone and his nickname changes every second. But everyone has their point of view...
