alright people, time to listen up. i have mentioned this before and i'm going to elaborate on it again before i am forced to enter your name into my "annoying-people" book.
msn..
guys, the status function is there for a reason. unless someone died, be patient and wait. please understand that when my, or whoever's status is busy, it means we're.. B U S Y.
as much as that annoying notice sound doesn't come out when we're busy, but when we're trying to concentrate on eg. an important email, that blinking light is a major distraction. here's a scenario of how some people can be extremely ignorant and clueless..
anonymous: so..???
erdi (BUSY): huh. wait, reading mail k.
anonymous: oh ok....
anonymous: do tell me soon ya
anonymous: abt that thing i asked u just now
anonymous: hehe
------------1 minute later-------------
anonymous: ??
anonymous: nana?
erdi (BUSY): dude, hang on k
anonymous: ok
anonymous: take ur time
anonymous: how was ur day anyway
anonymous: anyway, i gtg.
------------2 minutes later------------
phone rings
erdi: hello
anonymous: hey!!! what you up to?
erdi: hey, i'm busy, remember??
anonymous: oh ok.......
------------1 minute later----------------
sms
anonymous: heya! u gona be online till what time later?
--------------------------------------------
yes! thats what i went through the whole of today. i would appreciate it if msn comes up with a new version filled with more kinds of status.
for eg.
(Away, from you)
(Out to lunch, or so you think)
(automatic delete for anyone who clicks on me)
don't get offended. i am speaking in general (with a slight deviation towards a couple of annoy-ers). i, the annoyee, am truly annoyed.
grr!
