What's with all the chinese people flooding the forums asking for invites?

Do they realise that the WLM8 client is in english?

because we have the Chinese version WLM 8, but we all have no invite!

it seems that the invite is just for the client in English.

Ok, 2 things:

1: Does microsoft ever randomly send invites out, or does it only work like Gmail did with invites from established people only?

I got an invite this morning from somewhere, and it came on an account that pretty much nobody has. :dontgetit:

(If this somehow came from Jase, thanks man, I owe you one. :) :) :) )

2: I went and logged into the live beta site, and it said that I had zero invites (?). Do I not get any at all, or do they generate over time? If so, how long does it take?

3: If I don't get any invites at all, is there a way for me to reinstall a 7.5 build as well to run my other msn account too?

I have been invited earlier today and now when I go to the live website, there was no link to Activate and Download..

Is this susposed to happen?

Yes, Microsoft sends you an email with a button/link you have to click to activate your account.

Anyone know if mess is going to release a patch or when the next release comes out? The status and buddy icons need massive improvement IMO, but besides the looks it looks to be a quality release.

True the icons need work, but I personaly would rather have messenger plus tuned for it instead of icons.

I was sent another invite, this time from Microsoft directly. Is there any difference at all in what you get with the two different invites? I was added originally by another member and then just today by Microsoft. It gave me a link and said I can also go the the ideas.live.com site to download it. I've alread been able to download. So I was just wondering if you truely get more with the one that comes directly from them. I also, including that one, have two sitting in my inbox now that I haven't used. Can you forward them to others?

Screw messpatch, they are slow and don't often release patches for betas. Check out apatch instead. It doesn't change any graphics (nor will messpatch) but it makes wlm way more pleasing. :)

    • Still using Classic Outlook? Microsoft highlights 15 reasons to switch to New Outlook

      By neufuse · Posted

    • AV2, successor to popular YouTube, Netflix, Amazon codec AV1, has a hard battle ahead

      By Nas · Posted

      Absolutely NOBODY has suggested such a conclusion. I am affirming the sober reality check that AV2's overall market adoption will take longer than AV1's adoption rate -- which, by the way, is the whole point of the article! While PCI-SIG is productive (on paper), other WGs have created all sorts of confusing progress plans that consumers have tuned-out of their improvements... HTML/W3C, USB, HDMI, BT, WIFI (ieee802.11) as a few other groups where spec naming conventions, split progress paths, overlapping ambitions... I'm not critiquing the AV specs group; I'm simply affirming that adoption for AV2 faces headwinds beyond the macroeconomics of it all.
