I only use WLM/MSN. Most of my friends only use that too, so I don't really go looking for other IM messengers. And it can talk to YIM users anyway~

I have all three, but I hardly use yahoo anymore. MSN I use mostly just to talk to people I know online, and AIM more for closer RL friends..because no one I seem to know in RL has MSN T_T

Plus MSN makes it easier to filter through friends, and random douchebags you met online and hardly know, just adding you to spam the hell out of you :D
I've left PC.

Why? I'm tired of all the people here who think they're cooler than they actually are, I'm tired of the way certain people get away with things, just because they're friends with the staff here, I'm tired of all the raging teen-angst contained within these forums I'm tired of the way no one knows how to take a joke anymore, I'm tired of how I've been treated by the people I've thought to be my "friends" here, and I'm tired of all the unwanted drama PC has caused in my life over the past several months.

Plus, Pokemon just sucks anyways.

well, technically speaking if I had to say which services I use I use MSN/Live and AIM, however I refuse to use either program. I use Adium for Mac due to it's compatibility with both services and it's almost endless customization options.

Edit, I thought I'd post up a pic of all that adium can do for those Mac users out there

Pidgin. Best instant messenger out their.
Pika says.A wise man listens to an opinion and tries to develop his own but a foolish man listens to an opinion and except it as fact.

If you hear the words free and/or unlimited. Run and never look back as these are tricks.

Do you use Linux. If so why don't you use pidgin I'm sure it has every instant messenger you can think of.

We'll now I use MSN the most.

I can remember when back in 01 ICQ was the rage
In 03 AIM took over it seemed
Now in 08 it seems MSN is taking over.

I also have my clients running though Trillian Pro and Pidgin (GAIM).

I use MSN a lot, but since it's broken, I use Yahoo, instead.

Pidgin is still the best. Just look it up.

For the love of crap, supertails, please go jump off a cliff or something. Your posts are getting on EVERYONE'S nerves. The name of the thread is "What messenger(s) do you use?", not "Why everyone else's messenger sucks and why everyone should use Pidgin." You've stated which one you used, there's no need to just continue promoting Pidgin. If someone wants to use Pidgin, they'll use Pidgin.

In other words...
Get. A. Life.


Anyway, myself, I use WLM with MsgPlus. One of the few reasons I haven't tried using Linux as my main OS - there's just nothing comparable. I use AIM as well, but only for talking to offline friends.
