Skype is a VOIP program, the messenger aspect of it isn't even its distinguishing feature.

Let me guess, its the only messenger you've ever used?

I think he's claiming Skype is the best messenger/program of communication because of the fact that it uses VoIP.

(Updated first post)

Hey, sorry I didn't have the 'common' ones in there. I only know some of the major ones. Seems like MSN is winning though compared to the others. I did add 2 new ones to the list however that you guys were saying about

Actually, even the messenger aspect of Skype is superior. Add to that a high quality voice thing, and it's overall the best. And no, I've used other things.

It's the perfect name.

A pidgin is a simplified language that develops as a means of communication between two or more groups who do not share a common language

Granted I haven't used it in two years, but when I did the messenger part of it was nothing more than a simple text messenger with IRC style notation. Far from being the best messenger ever.

There is no argument there, PC wins and 2k wins over XP wins over Vista.

PC's better. The other one is debatable though.

Relatively ancient and inactive

Ventrilo isn't a messenger.

I like Skype and MSN. I used to use Trillian, but MSN was just too pretty, and I made MSN independent.

Skype is used as an alternative to having a landline. Its secondary functions are IM and purely internet conversations (computer to computer instead of computer to telephone/cellphone).

Ventrilo is just a server that lets people talk to each other.

I don't know about MSN, but Skype is kind of a dual email and IM sort of thing. A lot of my friends and I communicate by sending IMs, sometimes hours apart.

Plus, for being a sort of 2 in 1 thing, it's really good.

Still seems like MSN is winning this one big time.

Ya... last time I checked it really wasn't classified as one of those, lol.

Please be sure to only vote once! Kinda unfair if there were more than 1 votes from one person.

Oh_Man -- whereas just "press X to get 50 health back" is pretty mindless

[2024-5-06. : 5:02 am]

Oh_Man -- because it adds anotherr level of player decision-making where u dont wanna walk too far away from the medic or u lose healing value

[2024-5-06. : 5:01 am]

Oh_Man -- initially I thought it was weird why is he still using the basic pre-EUD medic healing system, but it's actually genius

Ultraviolet -- Vrael

Vrael shouted: I almost had a heart attack just thinking about calculating all the offsets it would take to do that kind of stuff

With the modern EUD editors, I don't think they're calculating nearly as many offsets as you might imagine. Still some fancy ass work that I'm sure took a ton of effort

[2024-5-06. : 12:51 am]

Oh_Man -- definitely EUD
