every have someone creepyly IM you? kinda stalkerish, being annoying (and not in the cute/funny way) ?
that's why i love GAIM.
yea, this guy kept IMing me, calling me billy, being creey and annoying.
i set a buddy pounce on him, to say something that the censors would scream about.
oh what fun.
i never have to block people anymore... they'll either ditch thier SN or they'll have to block me.
yes, what fun.
Full Version: i love gaim
what's a buddy pounce?
oh right... maybe i should have mentioned that.
you can set that an action happens ( like IMs the person) when they do something, like sign on, start typing, stop typing, go idle, go away, return from idle, return from away.
yea...
fun.

For gaim, how do you get an old buddy list from an old screenname?
The site says it saves it on the server but I don't know what that means or how to access it.
I do <3 gaim though.

About the stranger stuff, it reminds me of ICQ, where these random people add me and wants to video cam with me.

I'm not sure if you can do this on gaim, but if you open the new buddy list on regular AIM, then it should transfer over to gaim.
I think the best feature of gaim is the logging feature. I really wish AOL IM had that as a built-in feature.
It's really cool how you can easily and quickly search the log files, too.
