But I am the anti-Urza: Putting us together causes detonation. Joel Send a noteboard - 08/10/2011 02:49:24 PM

Remember: It was your idea. For that matter I cannot guarantee I am not too elliterate to use even something as simple as AIM even with a basic how to manual ready to hand; I had to be walked through setting up Ventrilo. Does AIM have voice and/or video now, or have you not had it reinstalled long enough to answer that? Not that I am suggesting anything, merely curious.


AIM has had voice chat for, like, a decade or something. I don't know, really, but I do remember talking to Aviendha on AIM many years ago.

If you right click on a Buddy's name and select IM... it will open an IM Windows, click the Options link in the upper right and it has selectables for Start Video Chat and Start Audio Chat. Settings has an Enhanced IM tab for making adjustments to the, uh, Settings.

Cool, thanks. Not that I am likely to use AIM again unless this becomes a regular thing, but it is nice to know. I heard that back in the day ya'll sometimes did the silent movie thing with chat (which sounds kinda weird, but then, I was not there so perhaps it would.) Again, not suggesting anything, just contemplating; having full audio and video would not be very retro, after all.

I am interpreting this as a personal dare to show up and be, well, me. Joel - 08/10/2011 12:16:41 AM 1456 Views
I think you'd be more entertaining if you showed up as Urza, but you do what you want. TaskmasterJack - 08/10/2011 12:30:57 AM 1454 Views

ICQ is still the messenger of choice for the majority of Germans *NM* ironclad - 08/10/2011 07:39:16 PM 938 Views
Do people still use messengers much, though? Seems to have declined a lot... Legolas - 08/10/2011 08:51:25 PM 1443 Views

Well, I tried... it told me you rejected the invite, which I'm guessing is another timeout. *NM* Legolas - 08/10/2011 10:31:52 PM 846 Views
I clicked accept and then it timed out, so yeah. *NM* Stephen - 08/10/2011 10:34:56 PM 840 Views
