Is WLM reliable? by gatepass007 on 08-11-2006 at 02:47 AM

Yesterday I downloaded new build of WLM. I thought that would help me resolving some of the problems I'm currently having. But I was wrong. I am still having the problems I had before ..

## Sometimes some of my contacts come online. But I can't see them online. But they send me messages. When they send me messages, I ask them "Are you in offline mode?". Lol! They aren't in offline mode ... but my messenger shows me that they are in offline mode.

## I can sign in using two different messengers (e.g; WLM and Gaim) to a single ID. Thats crazy ... If I sign in using WLM (first) and then Gaim ... WLM doesn't signs me out. Strange! I can send messages to my contacts from both of the messengers. But, I can recieve messages either in WLM or in Gaim.

So, my question is "Is Windows Live! Messenger reliable?" or thats just a crap?

I am missing MSN Messenger too much. But, I love Messenger Plus! Live more than MSN Messenger ... so I don't want to go back to MSN Messenger ...

When will M$ solve these f*****g problems?

That shouldn't happen at all. That is controlled by the servers, so again it's the servers playing up.

The client itself is very reliable: it's the servers that are having issues currently.

Well its been playing up recently signing me out and in, the all famous connection error keeps coming up.Its annoying but hopefully not lifelong......

I have a friend who had an e-mail saying the servers are being updated and to give it some time. Maybe an idea for now would be to either go on web messenger or just use the classic Windows messenger, which should be built into your windows xp.:P

Yeh its annoying. The signing in and out problem happens alot but when i go on to windows messenger its fine must be server problems maybe there upgrading them? Like the e-mail said.
