We understand this, but our point is, go offline if you are busy or not there, we can leave you offline messages if it is important.

i retain my right to act according to free will, and i do not will to log off.

seriously, i'll take it into consideration. but let me ask you, the quarrelsome ass that i am: if i am online but not responding, i am not there. if i am offline you wouldn't even be IMing me, and taking that into account, is there any principal difference between IMing me to no response and not IMing me at all? the end result is the same, you don't get to talk with me. however, if you had an urgent message or something you wanted to leave for me later, or if you wanted to put a file on send and leave so i could accept it whenever i got back home, or anything like that, wouldn't it be an advantage if i was logged on? that's my point though. first of all, i have had bad experiences with the offline messages. i have observed the feature and found it very unreliable. some times i don't get offline messages that were sent to me while logged off until i log in, log off and then log back in. some times that can happen over the course of a whole day, and i get the message later than intended. some times they don't show up at all. some times the electricity goes out, my internet falls down, or something else. i don't trust that system as i have experienced its flaws myself.

i can keep on going. basically it's way more convenient for me to leave my msn logged in. what really is the problem with IMing me and me not responding? why is everyone so bothered by it? i mean i get that on the instinct level it's like getting your hopes up and then down, it's like a loss or something on some deeper level and it can be experienced as a negative feeling to seek someone out but not getting a response. but shit.

anyway, one key difference in my messenger habits and eric's is that eric is logged on for a few hours every now and then, rarely if you ask me but maybe i'm blocked. my msn is pretty much always logged in. my computer is on 24/7 unless i turn it off over night which i do a couple times a week maybe. if you get a pop-up saying i just signed on or off it could mean i'm here or it could mean a) my router rebooted, b) my modem rebooted, c) there was a small problem with my connection outside of the house which caused the net to go down for a few secs to a few hours, all depending. if you get at me, and i get on the computer within a reasonable amount of time from when you left me a message, or if it was something important, eventually i'll get back at you. when i come home from work i normally have about 3-6 people just saying "hey sup?". why should i, six hours later, bother to respond to each and every one of them when i am tired after work and just want to surf the net and listen to some music. some times i get on here to chat and i'll hit up a couple of people. me and dark phantom talked a lot over the course of like a couple of days a while ago. i do this when i have the time. other than that i speak briefly with a lot of people pretty frequently. so just leave a message and if it's important enough or if you're still logged in or if what your message was about is still relevant and if i feel like it, i'll get back at you. if not, i won't, but look at it this way: if my msn habits were different and i hadnt signed in at all, you still wouldnt be talking to me, which brings me back to the point i was making earlier.

this is one of those things that people will forever comment. i use the net and messengers a lot so i get it a lot and i can just sit here and take it cause it's "nothing". i know a bunch of people are gonna tell me its pointless to write an essay about this but fuck you. i can let it pass because it's "so trivial" (i'm sure if you tell me i need to change my status, from the perspective of you who only hears yourself say it, it seems pretty trivial, try having people nag about it constantly) and let it annoy me for the rest of my life, or now that we are already discussing it i can make a big point out of it to shut people up and make them realize i'm not playing. this is like one of those things where you ask me if i wanna go out and i say no and you start nagging because you automatically assume the reason i wanna stay in has to be that i'm just "being stupid" or something, while the fact is that something huge may have happened in my life thats seriously fucking with my mood, i dont wanna tell you, and i want you to stfu about going out because i wanna stay in but i realize you're not doing it because you're mean so i can't really get mad at you either. pls stop asking me to change my status, because i can keep bombarding you with reasons not to.

btw like i just told sigh i actually just forgot but normally would have put a bunch of smileys in there. i'm not all that serious, but at the same time, i sort of meant what i said.

I didn't read it all, but;

however, if you had an urgent message or something you wanted to leave for me later, or if you wanted to put a file on send and leave so i could accept it whenever i got back home, or anything like that, wouldn't it be an advantage if i was logged on? that's my point though.

Because people don't stay online enough for you to respond.
