Idiot_on_ICQ: "You there?"
People, on ICQ it doesn't matter if the person is "there". Just say what it is you want to say for cripes sake.
Half the time you get their message hours later, you reply with "Yes, I'm here".... then the person who initiated the contact gets back to you later with -- "looks like I missed you again, let me know when you're on" etc and so on etc etc.
JUST SAY IT.
If you just say it the first time, the other person can give you an answer when then get it rather than playing the "are you there?" game.
Simple concept, so hard for so many people to figure out.
