Facebook chat isn't as bad as it used to be and the reason I brought it up is because it's an easy chat mechanism that's readily available to many people here except Jim because we all know he's a spam bot.

Anyway if you log in to Outlook online (Or whatever the heck my hotmail is called now) all your contacts come up in chat form very similar to FB chat.

Google Chat is boss and now with Google hangout it has become amazing, I have no shame

Now picture your worst nightmare, the grass turned into trenches of mud, rain drenching you, ice winds, down to rations, surrounded by death and destruction

Turning your dreams into nightmares is what we do, heed this warning and pass it on, else you will forget your serenity forever

I hate Google. It is not entirely rational, and not universally applicable. :)

There are several good reasons for someone to hate google. despite that, I do tend to prefer their versions of things to everyone else's...

Re: MSN closing down by 2013?!

So basically they want to move on from text chat to video/audio chat if it's moving to Skype...Fortunately there's Google chat, Yahoo chat(?), Facebook chat and other less used tools. I suppose ebuddy will also retire?

Re: MSN closing down by 2013?!

seems some clinch in merging msn and skype..

I did this with my femme msn the other day and lost over 600 contacts..

you have to then sign in to
https://blu002.mail.live.com/mail/contacts.mvc and undelete all ppl you want back..

seemed to be fine when I first did it, was only today that they disappeared :/

Section Admins - who will be 'in charge' of the section in question. They will be responsible for the overall feel of the section, the setup/structure, and most importantly the community/users in the section. This will incorporate the old 'ombudsman' role. And insofar as the Section Admin is responsible for the users, they are also responsible for the high level mod behaviour towards the users.
So -as a user - if you have an issue with how you are treated, rules, bans, whatever --goto the section admin... They are there for you!

There is no 'reporting structure' in this setup -- tech, mod, and section admins are all on equal footing, each with their own (somewhat overlapping) responsibilities.
Mods report directly to the mod admin, and indirectly to the section admin for the section in which they mod.
