Sooooo Angelic/Neko wanted a skype thread, and lo and behold!

I'll try and compile a list of us all and our skypes, if anyone would ever be interested in joining an ichgos conference (:

Best start with myself I guess:-

Gekkeiju - Gekkeiju1612
random_tangent - timtamchick
aznanimedude - aznanimedude
PorscheGTIII - PorscheGTIII
Alone - alex.rudberg
Hiei - kurisu_kun

i'll rope more of you in later ^^

I think you can chat (talk) for free. I don't see why we would need to, IRC is good imo

I still need to wrap my head around Skype hehe. Things like credit etc. But it was fun to prank call my mum, only for her to hear silence :P

Then my free credit ran out :(

We should decide on a date/time when we have somekind of group session on skype :P

Or maybe someone should run a teamspeak server or something, that might be better if a lot of members are interested

So how does it work? Do you use a microphone or telephone or what? :S

random_tangent
May 26th, 2009, 12:15 pm
Generally you use a headset - but I assume you can use just a mic, with your speakers :) Pick one up for 20 bucks from Dickies, lol - that's what I did, and it works pretty well!

Alone
May 26th, 2009, 01:24 pm
I suggest we decide on the range of topics now. It's gonna be awkward when we all get together and have nothing to talk about except "Alone's accent sounds funny" =P

My brother uses skype to talk with our cousin in Austria. Is there anyway I could use a landline to chat with you weirdos? :)

May 26th, 2009, 03:33 pm
You could, but everyone would need the subscription service, which I doubt that everyone would be willing to pay for it.

Just install the client if you want to be a part of this. It's free and easy.

Hey! Stop crying!!! *borders off said corner as no-crying zone*

I'm not saying "hey, let's organise a skype thing even though Neko won't be there and we'll leave him out". I'm saying that if people are gathered on IRC or something, they're free to skype if they want.

And you can't complain about being left out. Poooor Rantan and Gekkeiju and others didn't make it last time.

Neko Koneko

Yes, we're going to talk about E3. Yes, girls also - no exceptions ^^;

Edit: Good job everyone showing up....

Neko Koneko
June 3rd, 2009, 09:41 pm
Well, since I didn't get any response I guessed nobody was interested so I went to visit a friend's place instead. Maybe we should pick a date during the weekend somewhere in two weeks or so.

PorscheGTIII
June 4th, 2009, 04:17 am
Can we do it on a Saturday Night / Sunday Morning? :heh:

Neko Koneko

Not with me or spoony

Alone
June 4th, 2009, 05:32 pm
Well, if we wait 2 weeks we'll kill it.

I'll be in charge of Skype Conference this week, currently the set date is:

Saturday (June 6th), 10 p.m. GMT. Suggestions or adjustments go in irc etc.

If anyone who didn't get to talk last time wants in, skype names go here!

Neko Koneko
June 4th, 2009, 05:41 pm
Oh, you don't have to wait, I'm just saying Spoons and I are most likely not going to be there :P

June 5th, 2009, 01:11 pm
oh crap I missed the 1st one :(
nobody invited me even tho gekk AND azn were there! *joins Angelic in the left out corner and cries*

er Im on tonight probably unless Im dealin with family, should be on IRC aswell if I forget, drop me a line :P BTW skype has been making me invisible... for no reason (tells me im online rather than invisible so I cant fix it >_< ) so...chance a call even if im offline, worst I could do is not answer :)

Gekkeiju
June 5th, 2009, 06:47 pm
I wasnt there at the first, i was at choir D:

aznanimedude

luis was invisible so i didin't think to invite him
and angelic was organizing it, so if luis wanted in i gues angelic would have invited him :X

i'll remember to leave an invite for luis next time tho :|
that is if i'm part o the next one xD, we'll see whoever sets it up and does it

A new record? D:

June 7th, 2009, 12:22 am
Listening to Luis' family talk is not a conversation =P

Anyway, yeah, 4 hours. At least next time we'll get to listen to Angelic's Stonehenge impressions. That'll cover at least 2 hours.

i think the idea of a big skype ichigos chatroom that noone ever leaves (since it keeps you in it even when you log off) is brilliant \o/, and it lets you know how many people are on so that you know whether you have enough for a decent conf. call

but organize away skype-users

I haven't seen a single advertisement yet. Maybe I'm doing something wrong...

Perhaps you should try the new one, 4.0 I think. This is the first time I've used Skype, so I've never used a different version, but my brother says it's a huge improvement.

PorscheGTIII

I am, but the ads do not happen in Skype, they have been starting in MSN since I installed Skype. Things like people from my buddy list messaging me "I found my new F#$% partner here! Check it out!" and then going off line.

There's a lot of awkward silences during our conversations.

Milyardo
June 13th, 2009, 10:04 pm
skype is ad-and spyware free. M just doesn't want it.

M didn't say anything about Spyware, nor did he say the Ads were in the program itself.

M
June 13th, 2009, 10:56 pm
What I was saying is that whilst the program was open, I had random instant messages and calls from companies promoting a particular product, and smart bot conversations requesting that I click on a link that leads to websites that could only be considered as malware attempts. Normally I'd write this off, but I've only released my Skype address on one site (this site). Obtaining spam after two days of creating the account is both unbelievable and unacceptable.

In addition, last week when everyone was trying to add me to a chatroom in Skype, my client first got the request, I accept it, and then it would die. Completely. I'd restart the application, it'd do the same thing. I rebooted, the same. I reinstalled, the same. Thus, the client was broken.

These aspects compounded together lead me to avoid using Skype and write it off as "crap". Also, I'm not the only one that experienced these issues with Skype's service. I did notice that those whom subscribe to their service tend to not have these issues, though. Perhaps I'm just looking too deeply at things...


Also, as far as I know, Skype is not spyware or a virus; nor does it install either of those two.

Neko Koneko
June 13th, 2009, 11:09 pm
I never had those problems. besides, what you say about people advertising on skype, sounds more like what happened to me when I tried using ICQ. You just have to set the program to not accept convo's from people you haven't added to your own list (isn't that the default setting anyway?). Stability - never had a problem with that either.

I think it's just you M, or you're just trying to think up a very bad reason not to join :P

M
June 13th, 2009, 11:15 pm
And I'll probabily try it again one day, too; but it's left a bad taste in my mouth. Like the days of using MSN Messenger underneath of AOL back in the 90s. AOL did something when you were using MSN that caused text ads to appear under the guise of a IM. That stopped me from using the MSN client for nearly 5 years. Which I then tried it again and it was golden.

aznanimedude
June 14th, 2009, 10:16 pm
that happened to me when i was in "skypeme" mode, not just available mode
after i decided never to again use skypeme mode nothing like that

No way! I never make up words! It's probably a word only used by Americans acting British though, hahah: http://www.merriam-webster.com/netdict/sot
