    I know I have issues with being a people pleaser when I start talking to my therapist about covid and quickly say, "oh. We don't have to talk about this. You must talk about it all day." If she could have slapped me through Skype, i think she would have

  • Deb27158071 Deb from Toronto דבורה 🇨🇦 (@Deb27158071) reported

    @CTGreive @JamieKasara @JCope222 If you need any suggestions or help , I'd be happy to help. I'm retired and stuck at home because of Covid. If your son needed some specific help I could go on Google Meet or Skype etc. I'd do it for free.

  • Kona2na Kona2na (@Kona2na) reported

    @JanuaryAndOn I had to install it because my laptop automatically adjusts my camera to show black n white in Zoom calls. And the ONLY way to fix it is to go into Skype and click "allow color" or something like that

  • Weeaboo__Bot Weeaboo Bot (@Weeaboo__Bot) reported

    Im a nonthreatening feminist ninja! talk to me on skype about your problems as a woman i sympathize i’m taking womens studies. I took women’s studies I know what ‘Communism’ means. Man I’m so horny today. Sorry.I’m sorry. I just came out and said it.

  • Ilozue716 Chudy Ilozue 🇺🇸 🇳🇬 (@Ilozue716) reported

    @tuckwoodstock I know. But the issue is gonna keep happening if you keep using Skype...

  • Wolfey39 Gregg Wolfey (@Wolfey39) reported

    So in Skype's (yes I still use Skype don't judge) infinite wisdom they log me out over "security issues". I believe it was over Microsoft being concerned over me getting. Of course I have had it forever so I didn't remember my password, so I had to make a new password. 1/2

  • bluedicmonds stas (@bluedicmonds) reported

    I might’ve had problems with the skype groupchat girls in the past but none of them know how much they saved my life at that time

  • NateSeems Nate (@NateSeems) reported

    @Timcast @reitma99 @hasanthehun If you were serious about "debating" Hasan, you'd have no problem doing it via Skype or Zoom. You don't actually want to debate him. You just want to pretend.

  • ElisabethMJ01 Elisabeth Jennings (@ElisabethMJ01) reported

    @HotmailUK_Help I am disabled and locked out of my Hotmail account with emails coming in daily. I have tried to recover my account but haven't used Skype for years. Please can u help me?

  • manak691 manak_m123 (@manak691) reported

    @ImAJWolff @hasanthehun Tbf Hasan does a lot better in debates when they are in-person. It would only hamper him doing it over Skype/zoom. Others like Destiny do terrible in-person because they are way too mindful of their opponent and can’t look up the others statements

  • kaiblin Kai Blin (@kaiblin) reported

    @sarah_edo you're lucky. I had to fix all that crap over zoom/skype, for people who have their OS set to a different language and wont follow instructions like "just read me all the menu options you have".

  • VessOnSecurity Vess (@VessOnSecurity) reported

    Shows the last 2 digits of her phone and asks her to enter the last 4 digits. When she does, Skype says there was a problem with the service. Is there some outage going on or is this yet another Microsoft/Skype ****-up?

  • MadelinaHorn 𝔐𝔞𝔡𝔢𝔩𝔦𝔫𝔞 ℌ𝔬𝔯𝔫 🦂 top 5% (@MadelinaHorn) reported

    @SkypeSupport @skype why is my Skype not working no matter how many times I change my password it says wrong password even when I just changed it! Help!

  • MissVFrost Vicky Frost (@MissVFrost) reported

    @QuicklineUK every day for the last week the internet has gone off totally at least once. Every day for the last week the slow speed had prevented me from using zoom, skype, bbc iPlayer and other apps successfully. What is the problem with your network?

  • IllusEnterprise Illusive Enterprises - Amber Adams (@IllusEnterprise) reported

    @douwemus Do you have Skype or anything Douwe? I need help if you have time, work is PAID. If you don't have time, please recommend someone to me that does and may be interested but please PM me here with your Skype or another Messenger.. any is fine.

  • LOGtheGOD LOGtheGOD (@LOGtheGOD) reported

    @Timcast @reitma99 @hasanthehun why were u so down to use skype with lil benny shapiro?

  • RespectableLaw Respectable Lawyer (@RespectableLaw) reported

    @Timcast @reitma99 @hasanthehun The truth is that you're must be scared of actually talking to Hasan (which you could easily on Skype), so you'd rather double-down on a live appearance that you can feel safe knowing won't ever happen. Chickenshit maneuver.

  • IdeaGov Alan W. Silberberg (@IdeaGov) reported

    People. Call your friends. Check in your family. Almost everyone I talk to seems down, or trying not to be depressed. Seriously, ask people how they are doing. Spend time on the phone/factetime/skype/zoom. I think the second set of lockdowns and the intensity is getting to many.

  • AuAuDoSeokjin Princesa⁷ in love w/ The Eggman (@AuAuDoSeokjin) reported

    @koobunii Well whatever's the call app you use, i was just trying to offer help and get in the project so I'dget intell in firsthand hahaha, skype, what's app, telegram, if you ever want or need help I'm here.

  • Wolfey39 Gregg Wolfey (@Wolfey39) reported

    When I logged back in, it treated me like I was a new account! I tried logging in using my Skype name it tells me it doesn't exist. So I tried Microsoft help, the chat window said it might take longer time to get help. I waited about an hour no response so they screwed me! 2/2

  • FXBullsAcademy S. G. (@FXBullsAcademy) reported

    @chandrakanth_br @CNBCClosingBell $Tsla shouldn't be chased here either. Don't buy up here. $NIO is slightly high as well. The EV market will become overly saturated just like the vaccine play. $BABA is the best bang for the buck by far, but there is trouble in little china. $ZM is Skype on steroids. Sell it

  • SuperTechTrics SuperTechTrics (@SuperTechTrics) reported

    @Microsoft Fix Skype Microsoft i fricking pin skype contacts to my taskbar or connect skype to the people app i use to be able to do it back in march and it was a better system

  • Holeap4 Olatosimi (@Holeap4) reported

    Studios now when they can do Skype or Zoom call? How many media houses still have running water in their premises and provide their workers with sanitisers? But no, Church is the only problem we've.

  • JoshShear Josh Shear (@JoshShear) reported

    @sbkaufman We've been using Skype for business at work with multiples for years, but it's nothing that they were able to convince people like me to buy. Meanwhile, I bought pro Zoom to have dinner "with" family and friends once a week for longer than 45 minutes. Messaging problem, I think.

  • dietdrpeppper . (@dietdrpeppper) reported

    Feeling randomly super guilty because I was supposed to help my grandma Skype her best friend 2 years ago but I was super busy with work at that time and then her friend passed away and they never got to see each other one last time.

  • ma_LESS Ma-less Luvs BIGMAKK (@ma_LESS) reported

    about your symptoms, depending on your state it may be required to talk to a Dr. on the phone or via zoom/skype whatever. Let them know you’re dealing with depression & they’ll write you a script to send to your nearest/cheapest pharmacy. I use @GoodRx to help pay for my meds.

  • sunshyn_BUL Витамин Дъ (@sunshyn_BUL) reported

    @VessOnSecurity I was logged out of Skype this morning. It said I needed to login again for security reasons.
