Forums VS Instant Messagers

BlueEew · #1 03-03-08, 07:48 PM

Hello. So what is your favirote? Forums or Instant Messagers? I don't really like Instant Messagers, however forums. Well, I love them. Forums are far better then them chat speaking messagers.

Messagers, should only be used for fast communication in an needy time. If you know what I mean. Forums for discussions.

What you think?

Thanks,
BlueEew.

I see. I use MSN etc for talking to those I know in real life. However I would never usually talk to someone using an IM unless it was for business or important perposes. Otherwise I use forums.

I actually have 12,000+ posts on one forum.

I have been on it just over two years. I guess it's because it is actually my forum I have the posts on.

Well, I think my answer is obvious.

I like forums, though I use IM more. Only because I am fairly new to using them, this is probably the second forum I have been a part of.

i am a forum addict. i play alot of world of warcraft and don't have time to im. however a forum is like email you can sit back and answer whenever you want / have time.. im's i almost feel obligated to answer right away... now the old school icq were it would ut oh and flash in the system tray that was awesome i'd just answer when i wanted, but icq is now run by aol and sucks... so i stick to forums mostly, but i do voicechat while im playing wow if i need to talk to the person i am playing with.

I guess this is rather fifty, fifty. I also like managing forums, rather then just posting in them. With MSN it not like you can achieve anything. Where making a forum, you feel you have.
