Official Windows Live Messenger Invitations Thread


Recommended Posts

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:

lmfao

this is going to far now, seriously. can people not read one post?! I mean I want an invitation as much as the next person, but I'm not posting asking for one, I'd rather wait until someone posts saying they have one, then PM them politely and ask.

If people can't read a forum post, how do they expect to test WLMessenger?

invites for live mail havnt been handed out yet, well at least not to most users, i should think some people who have been in the beta since the start or possibly very special people have already revcieved some invites

yeah, I've been using the Live Mail beta for quite a while now and I can't see any invites.. :(

can I have a gmail account too please ?

LOL, sorry I just couldn't help this one to come out :p

I surely want one too but reading the rules of this thread pointed me the fact that I don't have to post here to ask or beg or anything, for it.

so I guess that means that I MUST NOT POST ASKING FOR ANY INVITE :angry: !!! :huh:

maybe this post is clearer :p sorry no offense.

since I don't want to read 20 pages of: "I want one too..." or "Can I have one I'm here since the beginning..." bla bla bla to search for kind inviters. I just say "thank u" :rofl: for offering us the invites.

I'll just pass and wait for it to b alpha :woot:

    • 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"
