Oh way to twist my words. No, you are a broken record because you say the same things about skype etc and not constructivally, not at all. It just looks like wining and moanig and all the other crud most of my blind folks I know of do. Instead of doing that, take action.. My complaints and feedback I've already sent to microsoft in the form of bug reports. Why not do the same and be proactive instead of reactive. Complain to mocrocrap and see what they say.
Good luck.

Sarah, I asked you some time ago, but I haven't got
any answer from you.
Do you accept only positive remarks about Skype on
this list?
Do you like only the remarks that are the same as
yours?
You say that "we are starting
to not like it". Can you please tell me who are those "we"?
Were there votes made among all members of the list and
you observed that all list members don't like my messages?
And btw, is there a rule of this list that tells
that if a certain number of members don't like the opinions of other list
members, those other list members should not send those messages? Or something
like that?
I didn't send messages with swears, and I didn't send
strong messages against other list members, but yes, a list member sent that
kind of messages for me just because he didn't like my opinion.
You said that I sound like a broken record just because I
told my opinion for more times about the Skype version I like and the one that I
don't like. But what about the other people that expressed their opinion but
their opinion was different? They don't sound like a broken record only because
their opinion matches yours, or why they are OK but I am not?

Then sit down, write your feedback to skype directly and not here. We have
already heard it. If you you don't like it there is always zoom or the delete
key. You tend to sound like a broken record and we are starting to not like
it. You in this case and on this list are the minority as you are I hink the
only one who is hating skype and its new ways. Either get used to it, get left
behind, or leave. I'm speaking as a list member, not a mod.
Take care

Yes you are right. We are a minority and we

this doesn't mean that we shouldn't say this just because we can't change
it.
Nothing will be changed in our favour if we all
would continue to pretend that it is all right when it is not all right for
all of us.

that's not my point at all. in fact, you know what? forget it.
I'm done. Time and Time again, people have given you solutions and
whatnot and other feedback to help you improve your efficiency with Skype,
and you still complain that it is worse than what you had. build a bridge,
get over it, The new Skype is here to stay, and no amount of belly aching
on your part nor anybody else's will extend the life of Skype Classic.
Microsoft have put it to bed, and rightly so. We, whether you like to
admit it or not, are a minority, and we do not affect a major
corperation's bottom line as much as we'd all wish we could, save for
those to whom products are specifically designed and marketed towards
us.
Whenever I see an email from you regarding Skype, it is a never ending
litany of charges against it's ease of use, that it's worse than what you
had, it's less accessible, it's less efficient, it's this, it's that, or
it's the other.
That is why I say you should expend that energy you put in to thinking
up and cmposing that litany of charges, in to learning Skype or whatever
varients thereof, and actually be constructive and positive, instead of
negative and disruptive.
We've heard every single complaint you've raised before, and
reitterating them here, is not going to change what currently is. If you
feel that strongly about it, contact the MS Disability Access Desk and
kindly present them with your arguments.

I already told you that this is not true. I put a
lot of efforts in learning to use Windows 7, and I use it every day in
the last years, but I still consider it worse and less accessible than
Windows XP.
After I will learn to use Skype 8 I will be able
to use it very well, but that "very well" would still be worse than
using Skype 7 for me.
Don't think that all the people use the
applications the same way you use them.

so do I, on both platforms, windows and mac. IOS and android, well,
that's a whole other ballgame, but, it's certainly better than it ever
was.
Octavien, if you put as much energy in to learning the new skype as
you do complaining about it, you'd have nothing to complain about.

Any improvement is good, but these

solved.
The biggest issue: Skype 8 uses a web
interface.
This issue might be worked around if
the scripts will turn the virtual buffer off automaticly and it
will use only the PC cursor, and of course, if this way Skype will
be fully accessible this way.
The best news is that for the moment
Skype 7 still works. Too bad that it will probably stop working
soon.
