    I sometimes get this, but not as much now as there does appear to be more to talk about. Not talking all the time helps too.

    Maybe spend less time on msn and more time doing interesting things that you can then tell people about on msn... ;)

    I don't particularly care how someone attempts to start conversation with me on MSN. If I don't want to talk to them, I just ignore them anyway.

    eh. I get the same convos all the time. They'll never get me interested. I don't, and can't do small talk. If I get asked how I am, chances are I was fine up until I was asked that question 5 times by people after signing on msn. Ask a question, perhaps say "Oh, have you heard about the new Palm Pre?", for example.

    People understand though, that if I'm on msn and I'm not starting a conversation with them, then I don't have anything to tell them or ask them. I've had the few that class that as rude, but I don't see how...

    It is annoying and boring when all you ever get off someone is, "Hi, How are you, What you doing" THEN "What you been up to?", then the process might repeat after 5-10 mins.

    Yea i get that alot as well and i dont usually start a conversation unless i have a particular reason to.

    What also annoying is the use of 'lol', why do people use it?!?!?! Especially when you're busy for example and the convo flashes up and all it says is lol.... why bother?!?!?! :mad:

    ?

    I've never had that conversation on msn... I think all conversations on msn that aren't with my girlfriend go like this:

    Other person: Hi!
    Me: hello
    Other person: Hows you??
    Me: meh. You?
    Other person: Im good. Whats up with you?
    Me: has lost interest in the conversation and stopped talking

    I don't go for watching people strip on cam. It's kinda pathetic if you ask me... If it isn't in person, you might as well be watchin porn. webcam sex and porn are both pretty disgusting to me... but at least in the latter no ones feelings are hurt.

    I usually try to have something to talk about when I talk to people on MSN. If I don't I never start conversations.

    I however act 'dull' if I want to kill a convo I don't want to have since it works almost every time. :D

    Yup. Although I ignore people if I don't want to talk to them :blush:. There's a guy I used to work with who keeps trying to talk to me on Facebook chat and because I know how the conversation will go I ignore it. He doesn't seem to get the hint though :/.

    Yeah! I do that as well. I don't see a point in getting involved in a conversation when I know I won't be able to commit time/enthusiasm.

    Hmm but but, one thing. If people here are saying "oh i can't put the time or commit to chatting" etc. Whats the point in being on msn in the first place?

    It depends - I'm usually signed in in case anyone desperately needs me (same reason my phone is always on), and there are plenty of people I talk to when they're online, but because they're online so rarely I don't use it as much as I used to. I like to be signed in in case they DO come online though.

    To be fair, it is mostly Facebook chat I ignore and the only reason I leave THAT on is because my best friend (who is never on MSN anymore, never texts me, messages me....he's a bit rubbish these days) is on there when he's on FB so I can actually talk to him for a change.

    Can you make yourself unavailable on facebook chat??? I HATE THAT THING. Groarrr! :p

    Also I'm on MSN cause well, out of habit really. Also, sometimes I'm just hoping to see certain people or am too busy talking to somebody else. It's more awkward to forget a convo than not start it. Hate when it happens. :blush:
