Actually i found out this problem the moment i have been MSN-ed. I have been ICQ-ing for very long before it suddenly just went out-of-favour with no reason i could think of except for the power of Microsoft.
You see, open your MSN contact list and take a good look at all those online. How many are there who is online and how many are in either (busy) or (away) mode. What i couldn't understand was that when you actually message those people, surprisingly, they reply you. (urgh !? ... shocked) Dunno whether does it consider a trend or they just trying to act cool for being away. What's so trendy or cool about being away while you are actually in front of the monitor ? What's the reason anyway ? I dunno. Honestly, when you guys see me as (away), I am AWAY... why should i fake it ? =)
Now here comes another observation of mine. When i got hold of those short-listed people who are always (away) or (busy) that actually replies you, i started to treat them as (online) when i have matters to talk to them or just have a chat. So when I have some serious matter to talk to say 1 person who is in my shortlist, i message him [my talkable friends are all males... : ( ] and as i have expected he replied "ya?" then i started to go into the topic that i wanted to talk about and waited. No reply for about half an hour... then i started to show some impatient words like "Hello ? YOU THERE? " and "REPLY LEH !~". Then he will reply "I am busy with my work leh". I get so frustrated when i wanted an answer and i need to wait for half an hour...
Ok Ok... here comes my analyses.... If i had someone messaging me regardless of whether it is important or concerns me i would just attend to that person to NOT keep them for waiting. I mean why not reply when the box in your taskbar flashing ? why keep the person on the other side waiting ? Isn't the flashing an alert to you that the person has responded ? Ain't you feel irritated when it flashes while you are working ?...
I wonder whether the person that isn't replying would feels any shame or guilty for not giving the reply that the other person wanted as fast as he could. Maybe the person needs your help eagerly and god damn it you just "Boh Chap" and wait until you are happy then you reply, and by the time you reply the person already doesn't need your help because he had his problem screwed. Won't the person not replying feels the anxiousness too when they are being the one who is not getting a reply ?... Hey, you would eventually gets what you did to the others...
Sometimes when i am really pissed when the person lets me wait i will scold him... then he will tends to say "Pai Seh, i am busy". ERm.... i dun see any jobs or task in the world that involves using a computer would need a person to work on every second of it and would explod or something if that person miss a second of it. (Let's not say people working in stock market, if you are really in that profession then dun go online ! duh~) Can't you just answer or reply that person first then carry on working? how much would you lost? Isn't it better that you reply and satisfy the person messaging you and you could carry working for as long as you like. Rather, i feel that if you are stuck at certain point of your work, you can actually rest your mind for that few mintues when you are replying right ?... and perhaps your stucked problems can be solved after that ?
I feel that if you see the box flashing and ignores it , it would be as good as i am talking face to face to you and you just ignores and do your work... how rude...
Really can't understand what's the reason behind all that.
