Official Windows Live Messenger Invitations Thread


Recommended Posts

Ok, I've decided to pick the lucky one as my PM box is being trashed by massive messages. DN2004.

Please do not PM any further requests.

Thanks!!! :) Next invite only service thats out.. and i get a invite ;) im sure to send it your way

Is there a way to get invited by someone else to Windows Live Mail? If there is, maybe I'm willing to trade my 1 WLM8 invite for an invite to Windows Live Mail.

My wanting-to-be-live email is dos.mail(at)msn.com

My regular email is henrique(at)gmail.com

Come on guys, we all have a much better chance of getting an invite if you just follow the guidelines, and be patient - rather this what was once organised thread is quickly being ruined; and starting to look like all the other threads about the invites. Look how well this was working before all the begging started. :)

For those whom need reminding, the first post, setting out the guidelines, read -

Please Read These Guidelines BEFORE PM'ing a Member For An Invitation

The invite system for WLM has started and those in the beta have been given 2 invites to start with. Some Neowin members are generous enough to share invites with other people from the board

Please DO NOT Post Here Unless You Are Offering Invites

1. PM the person(s) offering the invites with your name, user name at Neowin, and you country

2. Please wait for a return PM with the link for the invite

People requesting an invitation must be a registered Neowin member with some history here. (Time since registration, number of posts etc.)

Let's try again... :yes:

Understand that the invites are not available for every country yet.

To those offering the invites, please try to edit your post to reflect how many invitations you are still willing to give out

?? i've been here for hours abiding the rules trying to get invited decently, but this ppl don't learn!!!!!!

Edit:

@prince21: hey, it's not a noob issue, I'm only here a couple of days registered and I didn't have any problems reading and undestanding the rules. Check all those ppl and you'll notice some not-noobs

In about 30 minutes I'm going to go back to the beginning, and note down every person that has requested in this thread. When I've got all the names down (and it's bound to be endless), I'm going to email them over and over and over again an email with the thread rules. Hopefully this way they will understand the way this thread was supposed to work.

Those wondering what you did to deserve it need look no further.

EDIT: of course, I urge all other people annoyed at this problem to do the same thing. Let's show them what happens when they don't listen :laugh:

can i get invited too ? if someone wants to do a good action ! please let me know !

And another one. :no:

Is this thread still being moderated? Seems like all the mods have given up and gone home.

This topic is now closed to further replies.

    • I think the car analogy is more this: Left hand drive, basic commands on the left side of the infotainment screen. Right hand drive, basic commands on the right side of the infotainment screen. Granted, you're not swapping between the two often so it's doesn't really work. But it's to do with the proximity of you (your mouse, or the driver) to the controls.
    • I mean, the old one was broken and so stupidly complex for many users, so I don't see that as a feasible option. A context menu needs to be simple to use, and for me the Windows 11 style actually worked really well for me, and many others. I used to have to scroll the damn context menu just to get to "file properties" in Windows 10. That was not a good experience, and I'm sure you'd agree. What they're trying to do is make it the best of both worlds, as clearly you'd prefer the Win10 style. I'm curious how they're going to do this.
    • The "Show more options" has its place, as does the simpler context menu, but it should perhaps be a separate fly-out rather than relaunching the entire, old context menu. The old context menu was getting absurd in Windows 10. Often I'd have to make the context menu scroll just to get to "File properties" on my old laptop. Even without much installed, the amount of items was just too much. It's a context menu, not a "do all" menu. Making it configurable is fraught with challenges too, so I'm interested to see how Microsoft tackles this one.
    • I don't hate the new menus, I am not a fan of the lack of features and how they went live when they clearly are not complete. The menu itself presents much better than the previous - but what's lacking (IMO) is: 1) Any kind of automated manipulation such as: "this goes on the new menu because you use this feature more often on this filetype" "this is rarely used and will fall back to the old menu" 2) Any kind of user manipulation such as: "a UI to add/remove/order items to the new menu"
