the only chance of this ever being implemented as a feature is if patchou reads this thread. unfortunately noone can control the will of others so theres no way for us to make him read this. all we can do is post here and eventually if the thread gets large enough patchou will read it to see whats takinbg up so much of his forums space well thats the idea.

Although I would want this functionality as well, it's not likely Patchou will do this. He has been asked about this before..

"Now, about your request, I could have agreed at some point but not anymore: I've had enough with people complaining about Spywares and Trojans distributed with Plus!, I don't want to do anything that could lead to real spywares. I know that's pretty radical but that's the reality of public softwares. People download anything, with caring for the consequences and accuses the developers (me here) when there is a problem... that's just life"

So because of the security risks and dumb people not knowing what they install or download we get hold out on this feature. Sad but true.

so are you saying this will never be implemented? or is it just it wont be implemented until people get smarter about what they are installing?

since i have no idea how an auto responder is spyware ^o) and i basically have no idea what you're saying, i want Patchou to explain this to me.

what securtiy risks are there if when someone says "hello" your messenger replies with "hello" by itself? ^o) it does the same with ping comands unless you turn that off. also you would have to set the responder yourself to what it replies to and what it replies with

p.s. give me the link to that thread so i can read it myself please :)

scratch that, i read the thread and still dont understand how it's a security risk. Patchou, please explain :)

I agree with jaguar, even I don't now him personal.
Anyway, what do you mean with securtiy risks? ^o) hmzz, just like when you say hello there to someone, that would also be a security risk then, cool..

Anyway Patchou, put it in Messenger Plus :D, or u will suck lol
