Do you know a software with the name of QQ?
It's the most popular communication software in China.
I think everyone of us should has an QQ ID,that will make our communite convenient.
In Cwow ,many guilds have there own QQ group.
Oh, it's a software like MSN.

yeah, It's super famous. They even made a car of it. But I still prefer MSN or Skype. I'm also trying to set up a new teamspeak server (the one I gave already is French and apparently doesn't work in China)

TS is working in China...i mean i can connect to the COW EATER channel, but haven't try to speak yet.

QQ = EVIL

Yup, I loath QQ to the bones, they give you a bunch of useless "features" and forced install a web browser along with the messanger. it's only in chinese now since the english version no longer works.

however file transfer is pretty fast using QQ.

QQ is cool, I think it's a lot like ICQ, but the problem is that it's only available in Chinese...
about the lack of security...I don't know, you're sure?

I have a QQ number but since I'm in Paris I can't get my hands on it...

I am 100% sure. I strongly suggest anyone to not install QQ on their computers. I spent countless hours fighting this incarnation of dark evil in my former company and i am now understanding the different uncool functions implemented by this soft...

- many spywares
- integrated trojan
- modification of windows registry
- impossibility to remove it without a conplete reinstall of windows
(...)

To keep on topic, I think it is best/ easier for people to communicate thru MSN. Every computer has one, it is brought by installing Windows ( Windows Messenger).
Even on remote countries you can find a computer with a windows messengr.

MSN FTW

I agree with Luna, MSN or Skype are the easier (and safest) way to communicate with each other all around the world...

MSN is evil!! But yeah, I guess we can use it to communicate. I'm gonna have to create a new account to not be bothered by other people who wanna talk to me during a raid...

I got no problems with ppl bothering me during raids.... cuz i dont raid no more hahaha.
But what is the purpose for the software thing? we have a website and we can PM each other....intrigues me.

Yep, but the interest is to communicate in game and instantannatly and with voice (don't know if the writing is correct^^)

i think the best way would be to use smoke signals.


Or maybe pigeons...

Fax or telegrams....?

More and more people in China now use MSN now, for I know many of my friends already use it to communicate with others.
QQ is popular in China because it appears in a early time,I remembered in 1997 I already had a QQ number. Till now it has a huge market possession rate.
TS......may be one day guild will use TS...then I can't understand a word....lol

mIRC for the win. !!!!!!!!!!!
crap MSN. CRAP QQ. IRC FTW!!!!!

in fact, if you are geeky enough, you dont even need any software.
and we all are inside one chatroom. haha. you telnet into the server and start chatting. yes yes.

(again: ) IRC FTW!

=====

back to seriousness. its a silly thread. (irc is coolest though)
who cares which software to use. they are all equally good.
dudes, i have an old version of QQ 2005, FULLY in english, without ANY spyware, trojans and stuff,which i CAN uninstall and gives no problems. i recommend though not installing newer version or chiense ones. deadanus is right, they ARE infested.
But MSN isn't "better" than QQ, nor than ICQ or else. no program is. its a matter of taste and being used to.

So basically this thread should not be about which program is best, but about which program you all chose to use, and then get it on.

talking on the right highway, but on the wrong track (if you get my meaning)

the QQ2005 no longer works.

This edition is too old to work,now the new version is QQ 2007 beta1 XP

This edition is too old to work,now the new version is QQ 2007 beta1 XP

I dont know Salovalty that much. So someone joining ownage on his "i don't know WTF i am talking about"-trip came as quite a surprise to me.

Now, let me beg you again. ALL OF YOU!!!
THINK!

1) why would i post something, making a statement trying to help others, if it weren't true???

2) why would i write something without knowing it (am i ownage?)?

Now, in order to clarifi a few things. QQ is a VERY widespred software in China. China has widespread viruses, trojans and tons of crap on the net. QQ being most popular, its also one of the primary targets and serves many to picky back crap into your PC and therefore infest it.
Judging by the quality of research some of our forum members do before they post a comment (you REALLY piss me off with writing crap without having the slightest idea what oyu are saying, stating me as incorrect!), my guess is you might as well get infected.
BETA versions are the worst choice.
Anything that has been out there long enough (QQ wise) is safer.
the 2005 version is FULLy english, gives NO BUGS, has no trojans, no crap and nothing EVAR.
If your PC is configured correctly, it should not pose any threat higher than MSN.
you can likewise use video conference, voice, send files, and do AAAAAAAAAAAAAAALL the rest of things with people who use latest beta.
So no need for the beta.

Now........ (drums rolling) for all the doubts, the screenshots.




Please note very well that you can see QQ 2005 everywhere and that its in english.
if you dont know how to use google, i send it to you. PM me.

i hope now you guys will learn to backup your statements, because you apparently didn't try nor search nor use this AT ALL.
so just because we are in 2007 and this one says 2005, it doesn't mean it won't work.

if i am wrong, then PLEASE PLEASE forward me your installation file, so i can try myself why you couldn't make it work and send you mine.

enough now. i am pissed off now, and thanks to you it'll probably reflect in the next 14 unread topics i might answer. :-(

EDIT: i edited language out because of new official forum rules. totaly nullifies how angry i am now.

and you just tried that what? yesterday?

qq sucks... no need to discuss

my QQ 2007 beta version in chinese work pretty well, and i dun have bug same as before with ??? anywhere hehe

btw, QQ suxx well that's true !

as a matter fo fact, yes, i did try that the same day than my post with the screenshots.
i didn't think i had to try it earlier, as i didn't think there would be doubting, yet non-doublechecking people who talk for the sake of talking, on the threads.

oh well, probably is my computer problem, don't seems to be able to login. no matter, we all agree QQ sucks anyway.
long live MSN.

I would really like to use Vent...I have used it for over 2 years now, and its a great place to meet, chat, talk together. For those of you who dont know its a voice chat prog. Anyway thats what I rekon
