Does Microsoft Windows Messenger have group chat?

[DDCSpeed]

Does Microsoft Windows Messenger have group chat? I am writing a technical paper regarding the application. I am sure that Windows Messenger does not have a group chat feature...I checked a couple of times. However, I was told by a classmate I was wrong. Can someone assure me that I am right or wrong about this?

I'm sure it does...I've been in Messenger group chats before.

Yes it does.......... I've been in many group chats

Cheers,

You're writing a technical paper on it and don't know that it can support multiple people in a chat session? 😕

Mos def... (sorry i just wanted to use that phrase and your post was a good opportunity)

Now the real question is how to log on while appearing offline? This is impossible to do in MSN messenger, unless I am missing something.

Status = "Appear Offline"

duh?

Based on these very basic questions, I seriously think you should reconsider and pick a different topic 😛

Actually, luvya is pointing out a feature that is available in other IM clients, but lacking in MSN Messenger...to already appear as offline, before logging on. YIM can do it, as an example.

luvya, I believe you can accomplish this by using Messenger Plus!, from Patchou, but I'm not sure. Also, note that Plus! is completed unsupported by MS, it's a third-party add-on. You can download it from mess.be, or go to the website

Whoops...I'm sorry, I just realize you're talking about WINDOWS Messenger. Please disregard comment about Plus! in previous reply.

I'm very glad you're not giving me tech support.
