"PC GAMING - Longest thread"

Yep that's right, there's been scores of these starting up, but all have failed. Let's make this thread a place for PC gamers to chat. Post anything you like in here, comments, reviews, but no spam please.

OK, lets keep this going gamers. For beige box and country!!
Or something like that. :)

Nah, I see MSN Messenger has a chat program. Because you can run it in the background is why it's so popular.

I know someone from CS who used to do that to me... It got embarrassing in the end, I'd be talking to all these people he knew from real life. They used to insult my typing too. That was mean.

Well ok, if you go into a chat room, you expect everyone to be wanting to chat to people right? But on a messenger... you just leave it running in the background. I know that the uberleet people do that with IRC clients, but I hate explaining things so work out whatever the hell I mean for yourself and save me some effort.

Good choice tbh.

The only friendly way of dealing with him was to never speak another word to him.

Very true, that's why MSN has the block feature. There was one person in particular who actually did start up a conversation every single time.

Or if he had nothing to say he would add one of his other contacts to the conversation then log out, leaving two of us randomly.

Well, IRC's a chat right, MSN's a messenger. If you want to chat constantly then use a chat room. If you want to send the odd message because you've got something interesting to say, you use a messenger. Well that's how I see it anyway.

That's because it's easier to talk to someone over the net and you don't know them in real life so you don't know their annoying habits :P

I don't understand how they're both related :/
