What *should* AIM / chat programs be able to do?

[KevinMU1]

Thank you all for your clarifications.

Tabbing windows wouldn't be a problem at all I don't think, it'd just have to get done.

nihil, IP blocking may be useful later, indeed, point taken. But, at the same time, right now it's just testers, and if someone causes trouble we'll just deactivate them.

i think the ideal situation for ip banning would be two things. one, being able to manually ban an IP and two being able to block a screen name w/ an option to also ban this person via IP. of course this last idea would need to be done in such a way where the end user never actually sees the ip of the user that they ban.

What about the ability to do live webcam audio chats in aim? they already have the talk portion of it...

 

[KevinMU1]

Yeah, we definitely are against revealing IP addresses, just for security reasons. And there is no reason we couldn't make such a block.

A/V chat... don't hold your breath, not anytime in the near future. We're just 2 college kids.

everything and more!

"everything and more" is just a tad vague.
