O.P. To Boot Someone
I'd like to know if is it possible to boot/kick someone from a group chat, once I've invited them

Thanks

No, you can't. But apprently if you type ".pif" in a conversation, it kicks everyone out of the conversation :P It's incase someone sends a .pif virus, I'm guessing.

There's a script that tells you when someone has added you in a conversation and you can accept/decline it. If you decline, it kicks everyone out by saying ".pif" :P Group Chat Warning 0.5

Too slow :sad:

I thought of it was in case of a virus
Interesting
I installed the plugin

But, in the scrip, when you decline, it always send a .pif in order to kick everyone or can i configure whether I want them to be kicked?

Go to Plus! > Preferences > Main > Scripts, and edit the Group-Conversation Warning script, see the two lines:

code:
Window.SendMessage(".pif");
Window.SendMessage("/close");

You can delete them if you wish.

False,
Microsoft had found this bug and have updated it, so it only kicks you.
So that script isnt usefull in the kickage way any more

Well actually, from what I've been seeing in all the versions since (and including) 7.5 beta, it sometimes kicks you and sometimes the contacts. Besides, if they'd fixed this, .pif wouldn't have any effect :^)

.pif would have effect *sigh*
.pif is a nasty virus so when you try to use/send it in a convo it will kick you to stop you using it.

From my knowledge a .pif fileis basically, an information file that when you click on it the information in the file is used by Windows to run some program; including code that can be in the PIF file.

So... it kicks me? Let's supose a 4 people chat group
If i wrote .pif I'm gonna be kicked... and they are gonna continue talking blabla? Or everybody is automaticly kicked? Probably the second option, because it would not have reason, once u can just quit the conversation :P
