Does anyone find this tool just a bit annoying?
Im at work and I go to lunch or have the DND/idle flag up. Someone messages me. and it goes something like..
"HEY"
"WHere R U?"
"HELLOOOOOO"
"Why dont you talk to me?"
Its very interesting at work when I pass another persons' PC and I see a dozen or so boxes saying these things.
anyway... Duh? business hours? Work? DND/Idle flags?
If someone has been inactive for over an hour, take that as a clue.
IM is not a phone. Yet most people expect instant replies nor expect constant attention like it is. I expect them to be doing 2-3 other things as well.. downloading porn, watching the hippest movie off of bit torrent and playing mahjong.
Chill out, IM users.. just fucking call if you need to talk so bad.
