What's wrong with Qip? :)

Qip is just a client for using. If you've noticed, lately it has started using the Jabber protocol as well. When they were pressured about it, and you only use that, they said that Jabber is their main protocol, and ICQ is just an add-on :D

There's also information that AOL sold this "corpse" (ICQ) to Mail.ru. And they, in turn, are doing whatever they want with the protocol.

The information is 100% accurate :D

I don't understand why, even now, there's a voluntary-compulsory requirement for players to create an ICQ account?

I don't want to use it! Why do I need it???
