spamming outside of T&T, that's my job

Oh hey, just rediscovered this forum after 5 years... I remember wanting to remake WLM and actually, I got fairly far (made a program with the same layout in C# that had encrypted storage and mostly peer-to-peer communication), but it was a mess. I kinda want to do it again now that I know much more.

Also, I really miss these emoticons, are they free to use? Like, could I ever get in legal trouble for using it in an application or something? (I did use some of WLM's assets in my program back then but I deleted those later when I published it (again)).

Your best bet is to just use emoji. They’re unicode.

https://www.facebook.com/officialmsnmemories/ nails it.

The going home from school an "We'll talk on MSN". Spending the rest of the day on there until deep in the night. Teenage drama, talking behind people's back in group chats, passive aggressive blocks, spamming sign-in notifications, making friends around the world. As snapchat may be for some of the current youth, MSN shaped my teenage years. I'm in my 30s now, times are different. But I have a lot of fine memories around it, which is also why I wanted to keep the forum archive around.

I wholeheartedly agree with this.
