Battle.net Instant Messenger!

[Joe]

Think AIM. Think Battle.net. Imagine.

More to come!

[Eric]

... ridiculous?

ROFL. This is almost as bad as that Battle.net Trillian plugin that I forget who (I think it was Yoni) wrote for someone else I forgot.

Dante.


And, so essentially, this Battle.net Instant Messenger is pretty much what LoRd put in his bot that utilized the whisper system. Yeah.

[Joe]

This isn't a bot. Its basically a clone of AOL Instant Messenger with more reliable servers, and a different protocol. And yeah, it utilizes the whisper system.

Battle.net servers are more reliable than AOL servers? Hah! I beg to differ.

[Sidoh]

This is stupid, sorry.

Yeah, I don't know where I was going with that. =p

But yeah, theres.. 64 of them (16 machines per DNS, IIRC) in four locations, compared to whatever AOL has in one. Not to mention that theres TestBNCS and PvPGN, which haven't been done with AOL's protocol.

I don't think the delay due to electricity/light traveling accross a medium at 299,792,458 m/s will account for any amount of "annoying" lag when you're IM'ing people.  Maybe when fractions of a second count (like in a FPS) I'd understand you complaining, but not here...

[Joe]

I never said lag hurt anybody while IM'ing. I said servers that are down hurt people.

You don't think AIM has more than one machine running to service their IM protocol?

You're funny.

Well, it is AOL...

I wrote about two years ago... pretty much retarted.

IT'S STUPID JUST GIVE UP YOU'RE NEVER GOING TO DO IT.

Already been done multiple times, don't think any of them were very successful either. :/
