WHY THE FUCK DOES NO ONE USE XMPP - Raijin - Dec 26, 2015
It's literally the most secure chat option for HF deals...
All these skypes getting hacked and scammed from every day...
It's embedded to your goddamn profile for christ sakes
Wtf?
Edit: Here's a great tutorial by a great member.

Edit2: You can even verify you're talking to the person in control of the HF account

* - Narrate - Dec 26, 2015
yeah, I fucking hate using skype.
unless it's just if I'm talking to friends in a call, only thing it's actually useful for.

You act as though XMPP's can't be jacked.. Which they can.
But, it is definitely more secure than Skype. Especially for HF with HF's XMPP service.

Not going to lie, I don't even know what XMPP is.
Am I retarded? Or is it not just me?

If you get scammed by a hacked Skype, it's completely your fault for being lazy and not taking necessary precautions. It literally takes 5 seconds to send a PM confirming a deal or using verifysecret.php
These people will never learn.

It's such a huge bloatware riddled with security holes and three letter agencies.

Well idiots will be idiots and get infected either way I guess.

I just updated the thread with an in depth tutorial.

Whenever I do make any kind of deal (which is not often) I always use the pm system here on HF, it's the only system that I can legitimately use for reference if I ever get scammed and I can always save the conversation in a text archive.
Pm'ing on HF is just easier and safer.
* - SIM-1676753 - Dec 26, 2015
I'll refuse to do a deal on Skype.
* - grady - Dec 26, 2015
I've forgotten to setup my XMPP.
Done that now.

HF PM's are always a good choice.
But sometimes you don't want things logged on site.
Or you want a live chat system that's simple, easy, and quick to use.

Personally, I don't like having to open a client to chat. I don't even use Skype. PMs FTW.
