Anyone interested in doing a group conference voice chat some weekend? We used to do really big ones a few years ago. We'd sing songs for each other and it'd be really fun.

Post your Y!M ID, and if you don't have one, think about downloading one. Find your microphone and headset! We'll plan a good weekend for this!

I love Yahoo! Messenger, and I love <s>my cat</s> voice conferences.

Still love my cat, though, obviously.

You can download it for free. Or do you mean a microphone?

Hmm, I think I'll participate, perhaps.

If you guys did it on a regular basis with a vague topic for each chat, it could become the eoff podcast!

I'd listen to that podcast! xD


Anyway, I don't have yahoo messenger, but I might download it for this. Could be fun.

Why can't this be on something I have..like skype :jess:

..why do I have skype.. :(

:cool: Might consider this shindiggydo, when's it at (I don't speak like that..maybe)or was I meant to read something somewhere?

Why not Skype?

Yeah...I thought skype was all super popular now, or I wouldn't have downloaded it in an attempt to seem hip and cool.

05-28-2010, 08:51 PM
Skype has a limit though, doesn't it? Personally I don't like using it because whenever Mogi and I try setting up the webcams it crashes immediately. The webcam calls on Yahoo! 10 work so much better!

I don't like having lots of junk on my computer. In fact, I think I might uninstall Skype, I only use AIM and MSN regularly.

I would send you a mic, Cuch, if only to hear you swear at people some more. It is glorious.

We should do that again soonish.

"Soonish" means right now. Everyone!

BoB says things like, "I can't believe I ddn't spill one drip from me pup! Holy shirt!"

Is this going to happen or not? I have a skype account if that's more 'trendy' to have!

Wait. Is this happening right now. Still?

If so, how do I join?

Marshall Banana

I'm going back to bed. Wake me up if it happens again.

I did voice chat with some people in the last week or two! Yay

I hop between two computers, and neither has a mic or a webcam. How much would a mic cost? I wonder.

Freya
06-28-2010, 07:54 PM
You can get a really cheap one for like $7 if you didn't want to spend hardly any money.

I hear headphones work fine if you're loud enough, but I never tried it.

I haven't used YM in years, and it was always inferior to AIM and MSN anyway. Hell, I don't even remember my YM SN.

You are wrong! WRONG. Unless you can show me how to be visible to one person but not everyone else in MSN.

I just got it and might I say I hate it. If anyone gets a request from someone caled GARETH smurfING LOUD NOISES COLLINS, it's me.

MSN still wins

Of all the clients I've used Yahoo! did video calling the best. I don't need it anymore as of two weeks ago though!

You can still send and receive messages when invisible, so why does that matter that the person sees you as online?

Jessweeee♪
06-29-2010, 12:21 AM
Well what if I want to be invisible to say four people? I don't have anything to say to my other contacts, but maybe they have something to say to me! I'd have to message them and be like "k I am on right now, but invisible. Okay I'm logging off now, I'm not just invisible." every time. It's awkward and tedious! Plus it just looks really pretentious when you talk to someone when you're invisible. Like, "who the fuck do you think you are? Are you so important that you have to be ninja all the time?"

Raistlin
06-29-2010, 12:27 AM
The obvious solution is just to be invisible so often that the people you talk to when invisible all the time just message you anyway to see if you're on. This is how Jojo and I communicated over MSN for months. It worked fine!

Good grief. That's easy.

Right Click on the contact you want to be Invisible to > Stealth Mode > Appear Permanently Offline to _______, or if you want, Appear Online to ______, which is the opposite, since you'll appear online to them, even if you're Invisible!

EDIT: Oh, you meant MSN. Okay nevermind what I've said, since I thought this thread was about Yahoo! Messenger, not MSN! :mad:

But it's more convenient my way! Sure I don't need AC. I can function just fine without it. But god dammit it's late June and it's hot >:I

I like Y!M because people don't come up with stupid long names that can change constantly. I also don't like how MSN integrates with other things on my PC. I also don't like the way that voice chat works on it, with all those dumb sound files being thrown around. I also don't like the general look of it, whilst I do like the general look of Y!M. I also like how it alerts me to when I get emails on my Y! ID's email address which I've used for 13 years now. Basically I've never had a decent reason to use MSN, ever. Everyone on MSN can be contacted by myself on Y!M anyway, I have AIM for those who use that, if I want to do webcam or voice chat then Y!M has a better system for it than MSN does, and it's not stupid annoying MSN in general.

The only downside of Y!M is the occasional bot, but that's mostly because I have a Yahoo! Profile. And they only come about once every six months or so. And I have to admit when they do IM me it's pretty funny. So I guess that's not really a downside. Okay, the only downside is the archive and how you can't Ctrl+F in it. That's pretty crap.

But the important thing, which this thread is about, is voice conferences. Y!M has awesome voice conferences whilst MSN's ones are crap. I know about MSN's ones because I listen to the stuff that gets thrown around on Danielle's MSN whenever you lot invite her to them.
