5-10
I usually talk to alot of ppl …… most of the time I talk to like anyoe that is one..even if I don’t liek then lol so I talk to 5-10 ppl at one time…… mostly like 6 or 5
November 22, 2004 at 2:55 am #39126Road_RunnerMemberI answered your poll on the main page and I selected 2-4. I don’t often IM or exchange conversations with more than 4 people at a time. I also get annoyed by too many chat windows.
If I had more good looking chicks on my list maybe I’d be sending IMs out to 5 at a time ;).December 5, 2004 at 8:58 pm #39141AqeelParticipantAs many as I can!:)

March 1, 2005 at 9:58 am #39143-bAbY_meX-ParticipantSometimes it’s just one, sometimes 2-4, sometimes 5-10, depending on when and who I’m chatting with. But I voted for 2-4.

Excuse me? Can you explain what we’re “doing!!!!” :confused:
Anyways, I’m increasing how much I’m IMing more and more people nowadays. I have open around 5 IRC chatrooms with Trilly (most of them are empty) and I’m rarely not talking to anybody from School. So I’d say 2-4 not including the chatrooms.January 23, 2006 at 3:35 am #39132narayananMemberUsed to be a 2-4’er. But nowadays settled down for one at a time.
January 23, 2006 at 4:02 am #39133SpikeMemberHeh, I didn’t realize it, but I’ve never posted here yet.
Well…usually 2-4, sometimes just one, and rarely more than 4, it gets too confusing and I end up saying something to the wrong person.
January 23, 2006 at 9:38 pm #39127RabidKittenParticipantHeh, I’m in the same boat as you, Jake. Wow, how’d I miss this one? Probably lack of sleep or something heh.
But yes, usually I have about 8-10+ going at once across 4 messengers. You see why I dig trillian now? Honestly, I’d be going out of my mind without it. Whoever thought of the tabbed windows…I want to have their babies. *laughs*
January 23, 2006 at 9:45 pm #39122DavidParticipantI selected 2-4.. but I don’t know how accurate that is. A lot of times I’ll have 6 windows open, but I’m really only talking to one person at a time, and the rest are idle for the moment. I try to keep the number of in-depth conversations pretty low though, just because I like to do more than IM while I’m on the computer.
January 23, 2006 at 9:55 pm #39125TigerbladeParticipanti’m in the same boat as Dave with this one… I generally have a few different conversations going, but usually there’s really only maybe two that are active. the others are fairly silent most of the time.
and I agree with Sami, tabbed windows are great. I remember back a few years when I first got into IMing and didn’t have tabbed windows yet (i barely knew what AIM was, much less DeadAIM, or my current Trillian)… my screen was a mess.
July 26, 2009 at 5:28 pm #39144kelseycMemberIf I’m at work, I’m usually talking to about 2-3 people. But other times, or if my coworkers don’t have any questions for me, then it’s usually only one person.
