add people, pres alt + s from the buddy list. type in the name... then you can chat. thats basically all that there is. away messages are good to use. and file transfer/ direct connect can be your best friend.

I really hope that was a joke. GAIM blows asshole, the only time I ever use that is on Vista because AIM doesn't work there...

I actually prefer it over AIM, it has alias support, tabbing, and I generally like the GUI more. So yea. Kinda off topic: Isn't it kinda pointless to make a topic asking how to use AIM, you can figure those things out yourself. Think before you speak, or in this case type.

NO U.

Trillian annoys me. I only use it when I have to.

Windows Live Messenger > all.

No, nowstfu.

I like Xfire, AIM, MSN, and trillian don't have the abilities to track what servers your friends are in. You can also talk while playing a game. (Well I dont know if trillian does that or not cause I've never bothered using it)

This is what you do when wanting to communicate ingame.

1.) Go Get Ventrillo, Trillian, and CAL hats.


Trillian is good because it condenses all the major IMing services, and trims out the unnecessary stuff. Xfire Lags the hell out of everything you're doing when in game, especially in League play, so its not recommended. Vent gives you very good audio quality so stuff doesnt get fuzzed out by a crappy mic like in Teamspeak.Not to mention, the binds :D

Thank you! Exactly. Winks, nudges, and annoying custom emoticons are particularly useless.

Xfire and AIM are RAM hogs. whenever i start up oblivion, i turn of both. really, what's good for games is games with voice chat support>vent/TS>Xfire>AIM (this is in-game). but everyone has AIM so that works for me, and i use xfire every now and then. haven't started up TS in forever, guys at the old server must be lonely... >_>
