Title: Msn gone stupid!
Post by: Arcanagirl on September 12, 2006, 09:47:30 PM
I get on the computer, about 20minutes ago, and notice I wasnt automatically signed in. So I sign in, low and behold, msn has changed a few things, one of them being if you dont have a hotmail account you have to change your login ID to a hotmail ID. Me hating hotmail and all, has to go and sign up with hotmail just to keep using msn. anyone else find this stupid and a little discriminating against other email users.

Who goes out of thie way to basically ban all other email accounts unless it is their own?

Picky Bastards!   :yell:

Hmm, I still see a few people signed in who aren't using hotmail.com.

that is so weird, if I log into my msn it tells me to change my ID due to new changes in msn, then if I log into my new changed ID says server is temporaily down, yet I doubt that.

It still works for me under my aol e-mail. Maybe they'll make me change it soon though. IF I have to make a hotmail account, I'll just make it so I can sign into msn messanger, theres nothing saying that I actually have to use hotmail.

wish I knew why it wont log me in, says server is down, but when I check their online server status, it says everything is working perfectly.

That happened to me twice. I have no idea what the hell I did to fix it, but it was fine later.

You can't blame them, I mean, making people use the same email as the IM. Makes there company overal more known and such. Always good for bissness.

Just keep trying Jen. Sometimes msn goes through it's "I'm not gonna fuckin work biotch" mood. Happens to everyone, *shrugs*

I got the new msn messanger thinking it would fix my issue, well it did for the connecting part, but sadly, no one shows online...Ever :/

I mean not a single person on my list is on, and hasnt been on in last 2 days.  MSN does not have a download for the older version that I could fine on their site. So I am stuck with this stupid beta 8.0 where it shows everyone offline and hell I have no idea if any of my friends can even see me on lol. Any on my list, if you dont see my online I have been for 2 days so if it shows me offline, its cause this new msn bites!

Edit: I think I may have found a 7.0 download. Althought it isnt from msn lol. Figures eh, MSN stops giving out older versions, but other sites will. Thats pretty sad.

As a matter of fact... No, I'm not high.

They both suck major testiculars, but I still use them for communcation, the official messenger blow big coconuts, but I have alternatives, like Beup for my DS.

Myself I would prefer dumping MSN if it werent for all the people who are still using it. I find Xfire so much smoother, its great for gamers too.
