RE: Get back the statuses which were removed from WLM 2009!
Too complex, too hard for someone with an IQ of 4 (which indeed some MSN users seem to have - but most probably score higher). Have a little faith in humanity...

RE: Get back the statuses which were removed from WLM 2009!
Maybe someone (me? I'm a programmer, just never looked into Plus! plugins before) should write a plugin to have WLM2009 display brb etc as "normal" statuses too. I don't know if that's really possible... Anyway the idea behind personalised stat...

RE: Get back the statuses which were removed from WLM 2009!
But it does work. Apparantly, brb, lunch and phone are still in the protocol. I can set my status to that using Messenger Plus and it still shows, just not with other people who are using WLM9, including myself. Just because most people don't use t...

RE: Get back the statuses which were removed from WLM 2009!
I meant: setting brb still works, so the client still knows brb exists and so does the protocol, msnp16. It just displays as Away. The Plus! hacky way of getting the brb status, still works. ;)

I have version 14, and found out it worked there :)

RE: Get back the statuses which were removed from WLM 2009!
I'm not. I'm just arguing they have use for some of us, even if they don't for you. No drama from my side. But there's good news: I just installed the newest Plus beta, and noticed it's still possible to go into brb using the /brb shortcut! It ...

RE: Get back the statuses which were removed from WLM 2009!
Yeah, most of my friends use statuses, and I'm sure only a fraction of people who want this have even *seen* the petition, apart from very few people having tried WLM2009 at all yet. The fact is, many people are still using the statuses brb, phone, ...

RE: Get back the statuses which were removed from WLM 2009!
But you get the point, right? One click would be better. Will personized statuses be integrated in Plus! into the standard statuses menu, and a default list for "Be right back", "Out for dinner" and "On the phone" be made? That would help most...

RE: Get back the statuses which were removed from WLM 2009!
So I walk downstairs for a minute, and before I do that, I set my status to away (two clicks), then click my personal message, remove enough to make space (a few clicks and a key press), type "Be right back!", and then walk away for a minute, then...

RE: Get back the statuses which were removed from WLM 2009!
First of all, yeah, there are a lot of people ignoring statuses whatsoever. And second of all, I agree, those statuses come down to away. However "brb" for one means you are away, but only for a short period of time. I know people with a serious d...

Get back the statuses which were removed from WLM 2009!
As I don't doubt many of you noticed, there were three statuses removed from Windows Live Messenger 9.0, namely "Be Right Back", "On The Phone" and "Out to Lunch". The only remaining statuses are "Available", "Away", "Busy" and "Appear ...
