I hate MSN!

I opened my account during middle school or junior high, and I only opened to stay in contact with my friends that I saw everyday at school. It doesn't makes sense! I saw them everyday and we had phones, but for some reason if you didn't have an msn account you were missing out a lot of things. Some friends felt the anxiety to be in MSN 24/7, they still do.
In MSN you have hundreds of people but you only talk to 5 of them regularly, still you won't delete the other people just in case you want to talk to them one day and see how they are doing. I feel that MSN is useless, if you use it to keep in touch with people from middle school then you can use facebook. With Facebook you can know what is going on with someone in another country without spending hours in a conversation when you migth have other more important things to do. Plus sometimes the MSN icon keeps going around and around and it never logs in, its like its playing with your feelings because sometimes it stops and you think you finally logged in, and then it keeps moving.
What really bothers me about msn is that a lot of unknown people add you, and because at that moment I was young, I accepted their friend request. I find very annoying when I log in and someone random "hey, what's up?, who are you?" when they were the ones who added me. It annoy me so much that I stopped using MSN for years, so if someone I knew wanted to contact me they had to contact me through facebook.
I know it is not the same to have a conversation with someone important through facebook than through MSN, because in facebook the message normally takes longer to arrive to the other person, but I cannot go back to MSN. Even if I tried, errasing random people will take me forever, and I already forgot which person I know and I don't according to their email account. How I'm I suppouse to remember if "elsyta_cute29" is my cousin or the creepy girl in my school that I never had a conversation with?
I recently opened an account on skype, and even though it is like MSN, I like it a lot because this time I only have people that I normally talk to in my account. Not a single stranger or the now exboyfriend of my cousin's bestfriend, besides I get a better picture quality for videocalls. I hate MSN but at least is good for something. The email address that I had to open to get my MSN account is now my spam account, all the notifications from facebook and other places go to that account that I never check. It migth have been useful years ago but now it has been replaced by better more efficient networking tools.
