O.P. Messenger Plus should support "/me"
If you type in messenger plus "/me pokes you", msg plus sends "ĢI pokes you" instead. You can observe this behaviour when you chat with a person who has no messenger plus, e.g. the normal live messenger or an other messengers: They only see "ĢI pokes you".

The point is, that many messengers like trillian, pidgin and others can handle /me (so "/me pokes you" gets displayed as "username pokes you"), but msg plus don't sends "/me" but "ĢI".

So if for example, a trillian contact sends you "/me pokes you"; you (with msg plus) don't see "username pokes you". You see only "/me pokes you".
And if you (with msg plus) say to a trillian/pidgin/kopete/... contact "/me pokes you", msg plus sends "ĢI pokes you" and the contact can only see this "ĢI pokes you".

Therefore, messenger plus should send and accept "/me" instead of "ĢI", because it's much more compatible to other programs.
