Poll: What about an ICQ server?

There is currently a MSN Messenger server (this one), an AIM server and a Yahoo! Messenger server (which just got made). But what about an ICQ server? What are your thoughts on this?

  • Yes, I do like that idea.
  • Maybe, or I don’t know.
  • No, we don’t need an ICQ server.

Yeah, I’d actually like to see that. I’m a sucker for old programs and older versions of software. Especially IMs :stuck_out_tongue: (The current Skype for Win32 UI isn’t really my cup of tea, and the “modernized” versions of Skype for mobile devices and UWP are just bland. Also the new “Yahoo! Messenger” just reeks of broken and iMessage copycat). I would REALLY kill to try out some old ICQ, since the current ICQ seems to have gotten the Skype treatment.

BTW the Yahoo! Messenger server (the one by @Wildman_Fujiami) currently seems to be in beta testing from my understanding.

i really hated the new yahoo Messenger 8

Skype now is slow as hell !!!

The new Yahoo Messenger app looks like boring garbage trying to copy every other messaging client out there. The desktop version literally just takes you to the web version, so it’s really pointless. I’m really glad someone took the time to make a server for the old clients of it.

Skype now looks like garbage too on mobile devices, when it used to look nice with the blue clouds in the background.

I’ve never really used ICQ so I don’t know how good it is. Maybe I’ll have to make an account to try it out.

icq now is a whatsapp clone , wait whatsapp is a clone of telegram

I think that’s the reason why I never used ICQ. Now I have a phone number, so I think I might download the program on my PC or the app on my phone and try it out.

Old ICQ still works just as fine, follow this [OBSOLETE] Select versions of old ICQ clients work! Here's how to get connected
