MSN Messenger 7.0 BETA

[soundtest]

Anybody using this? There is this 'nudge' feature that is insanely annoying. 'Nudge' someone and it violently shakes their chat window to get their attention. There are also 'winks' which are these terrible, flashy animations of things like hearts and sunflowers growing. I don't think you can turn any of this shit off either! The one feature I wish they'd add is the ability to block entire groups (i.e. Work). At this rate MSN is gonna follow the standard IM evolution of becoming a cluttered mess of search bars, to do lists, reminders, and stock tickers in no time.

I wish Google would get off their collective asses and make a simple yet functional messenger that ties in with Gmail...

Use GAIM :/

Or mabey trillian if you are feeling a bit crazy.

I've never heard of GAIM, but the last version Trillian I tried fucking sucked.

Can you at least turn off the nudge feature? :(

[the_dudefather]

yep

I don't think you could in the pre-update beta (the option was there, it just didn't always work). :/ Still, I want to block groups! :explode
