This thread is for Patchou, but really any of the testers is fine cuz they might like the idea and pass it on. Maybe it's even being implemented already. Anyway....

Seeing that the new MSN 7 allows you to add a personal message aside from your original nick, That could be used to set our Personal "Away" Message, instead of having that in your nick and cutting half of it.

Dunno if that was very clear but i hope u get the point

Plus! does have an Personalised Status option for that already   (if you mean that )

Here's the option: Accessible by clicking the little arrow next to your nick, more status, personalised status.

Sounds useful. Adding a option to use the Personal Message or the way Plus! does it now.

The way it is now is perfectly fine. Some people do not have MSN Messenger 7 so how are they supposed to see your Personal Message?

that's why u get the choice of where to put it. Instead of substituting codes, just add them

I dont get it....why wouldnt you just type w/e status you want manually into the PM?

haha....
you won't believe me if i told you i didn't think about that.... oops
