Anyone else HATE ICQ? This thing sucks... - GoFuckYourself.com

Sparks · 06-29-2005, 02:17 PM

I have downloaded every patch/update/fix for ICQ 5 that I can find and it STILL will not let me add new users to my contact list. I get the same error everytime...

"ICQ servers failed. Please retry."

I retry and get the same error.... grrr

Anyone else having problems?

SirTreX · 06-29-2005, 02:18 PM

nope, I hate MSN.

Roald · 06-29-2005, 02:20 PM

Forest · 06-29-2005, 02:26 PM

i get that everytime i try to add a new user

i have to delete someone from my list before it will allow me to add someone new

fucking pain in the ass

SomeCreep · 06-29-2005, 02:28 PM

ICQ sucks turtle testicles

angel_x3ws · 06-29-2005, 02:29 PM

yeah.. don't worry i'm having the same problem..

flirty · 06-29-2005, 02:40 PM

ICQ keeps on disconnecting then reconnects. it sucks esp. when you're in a middle of a conversation.

had the baddest ICQ day yesterday. im hearing the ICQ Alerts but couldn't see the message and that's crap

adamneve · 06-29-2005, 02:44 PM

ICQ stops working for me usually from like 3 pm so i just switch to Trillian and works like magic

Titan · 06-29-2005, 03:22 PM

There is a 600 contact limit on ICQ. You'll need to delete some people to make room for some new people.

vogueboy · 06-29-2005, 03:25 PM

I think this one doesn't have the contact limit. At least my friend told me so, he uses it. I can't test it cos I'm on a Mac.

teksonline · 06-29-2005, 03:27 PM

works 100% fine for me, all day every day.. shrug

I can recommend that too

andy83 · 06-29-2005, 03:30 PM

i hated it since the days of beta. always lost my contact list.. just installed it recently to contact those who still use it.

SGS · 06-29-2005, 03:32 PM

Not sure if its not more an ISP thing than an ICQ thing.

We have used Trillian since it first came out and it kills the standard ICQ dead.

Violetta · 06-29-2005, 03:32 PM

I dont use ICQ. MSN all the way!

Dirty Dane · 06-29-2005, 03:34 PM

Never had problems. Could be your firewall?

FilthyRob · 06-29-2005, 03:36 PM

knock on wood, mine is working fine

RocketFlow · 06-29-2005, 04:25 PM

Using Trillian (Pro). Love it. Plus you get all major IMs at the same time. Lots of extras.

mahoney · 06-29-2005, 04:27 PM

Are you getting error 133 or 134 ? That means you have too many people on your list. Icq is very unstable these days and won't let me login until later in the day. I do agree it sucks

Pipecrew · 06-29-2005, 04:38 PM

Like others said, when that happens you hit the max, you gotta delete like 2 people to add a new person, sucks.

Sean · 06-29-2005, 04:50 PM

i do use Trillian Pro, but there are downsides to that big time

I don't have problems with ICQ using Trillian

Rochard · 06-29-2005, 05:54 PM

I have to delete someone before I can add someone, which is fine - it helps me to constantly purge my list.

However, ICQ refused to connect for me this afternoon so I've been using Triallian.

digga · 06-29-2005, 06:30 PM

i dislike icq but i use it cause everyone on here uses it. more of an aim guy myself.

Spunky · 06-29-2005, 06:31 PM

It's ok..I use it once in awhile

khs · 06-29-2005, 06:42 PM

icq is poo most times

assmunk · 06-29-2005, 07:20 PM

any messenger that does not allow you to send offline users messages SUCKS DONKEYDICK...and msn is the worst...it's like the barbie doll of messengers:pretty but stupid as hell

tungsten · 06-29-2005, 07:31 PM

get GAIM, i dumped ICQ's program awhile ago, was too buggy

webair · 06-30-2005, 11:25 AM

with a fucking passion i have to delete someone each time i add someone!! aaaaaaaaaarrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrggggggg

TDF · 06-30-2005, 11:27 AM

yahoo messenger is better

MetaMan · 06-30-2005, 11:28 AM

why the hell do people have such problems with icq?

just stop downloading the new versions, they are all bulky and filled with ads. i use older versions of icq STRICTLY and i have never had a single problems.

http://www.oldversion.com/
(im not sure if the page is down right now or if it is my fucking internet that has been cutting in and out the past 4 fucking days

)

go there and try a few of the older versions and see what works best, you WILL notice the difference, i am against any updates for programs like icq/msn and i never have problems.
