User profiles. and MSN.

I was just wondering...

In out profiles we have a spot for our AIM handel, ICQ number and Yahoo! IM. What about MSN? I am forced to use MSN because all my friends use it... I am sure others are in the same boat. So why is there no MSN entry for member profiles?

Oh and please leave your anti-microsoft comments at the door... we have all heard it before. I am just looking for a non-bias answer.

Thanks.

Never post an image with caption "Maybe we could stick it here" while requesting features.

The rude comeback is gonna be way too tempting for some...

Great...

Not to nit pick but it is a little low on the profile page don't you think? Looks like it belongs with its siblings up with AIM, ICQ and yahoo.

Yah... it is... why would I start a .net/hotmail account just to use MSN? I hate hotmail, so I just used my email.

And yes... 709, I am. Now pardon me as I wip my slave, and kill off some political prisoners.
