Topic: What are you Messenger habits/rules/things etc?

I log on and "Appear Offline" until I see someone I want to talk to. When I'm online, I am always set to "Away" so that I don't get flooded with people saying "HEY!" and the leaving. If someone adds me and I don't know them, I ask who they are. If I still don't know them, or they don't respond, I block them. For the most part, I'll do my best to try to start up a conversation with someone, but I'm quite forward and (brutally/naively) honest which repels a lot of people and stops them talking. Bah, I say!

Currently there are 18 people online for me. Nice people, mostly. But I can't be bothered, haha.

Anyway, I think the most common thing is the fake Away/Busy thing. If I'm actually away, I'll put Be Right Back. Otherwise I'm probably there. xD
