Hi,

I mean, this is just too idiotic for words,... You build an entire Windows (8, 8.1,...) on the Windows Live Credentials, making it even worthy logging in to your computer, and then you go and outsource it's messaging capabilities to buggy, very limited and incompetent-at-what-it's-trying-to-be third-party apps like Skype. I mean, c'mon... You could have gone and build the whole messaging service into Windows, making it one big 'Live' system,... You could have linked XBOX friends with your MSN list (Adding friends on MSN makes them XBOX friends and the other way around.),... You could have used the personal message thingie for XBOX ratings, scores, or rated position in your friends list,... You could have used it as base for XBOX(-to-pc)-messaging,... You could have done so much with it, but instead you went the complete opposite direction, not only limiting your selves and your Windows Live sign-in, you even gave it to a third-party, which I suddenly am supposed to trust with my Windows credentials too (which also is another service that can be hacked), that doesn't even have 1/100th of the functionality that MSN/WLM used to have. You officially killed off your trust in the whole Live credentials sign-in, killed off any users MSN/WLM used to have (because nobody likes Skype!) and eventually successfully destroyed the whole use of the messenger service and it's userbase.

And this just raises one question for me:

Are you guys at Microsoft complete idiots or just plain stupid?

Grtz,
