  • callow_explorer Kieron Circuit 📷 (@callow_explorer) reported

    it's for the OBS overloading. I couldn't post the link in twitch - hopefully seeing how Skype handles the camera will be of some help at least! Maybe a bit of a good old fashioned restart might help too (if you haven't tried)!

    Computer tanked so former IT Guy @Matt_Bernico spent a couple hours on Standard Time Sunday to try to help me fix it over Skype. It's unsalvageable, tragically, but it's nice to be able to rely on such a Very Good friend.

  • belenadas Belén Sousa (@belenadas) reported

    It's impossible to contact the customer service of @tapairportugal. More than 30 min waiting in the Skype call. I need to extend the date of expire of a voucher because due to Covid restrictions I can't use those vouchers. Please help!

    Skype is getting shut down this year.

  • cenobyte Millicent "captain of my soul" Bystander (@cenobyte) reported

    So, anyone else having weird server problems with Roll20 on an ongoing basis? What other TTRPG services are good and free for players? I’m willing to pay as DM. Note: I won’t use Skype; have used Zoom & other conferencing; don’t want to **** around with cameras for the map.

  • leonspok Igor Savelev (@leonspok) reported

    Yet maybe it’s not Skype but Intel is the issue. Usually I make this call from my personal Mac Mini 2014 with Core i5 and it’s always quiet. I guess Intel Macbooks with higher number of cores (4+) are just terrible at heat management. Even my old MBP 13’ 2012 was better at this.

  • therealkatburns KASHKA ✨ (Kat Burns) (@therealkatburns) reported

    @callow_explorer skype camera looked fine. audio slightly out of sync. issue might be my older computer. 🤷

  • GoddessKyaa Kyaa Chimera - BLM (@GoddessKyaa) reported

    Found a work around for the issue I was having on Skype. 👍

  • EmzOLV EmzOLV (@EmzOLV) reported

    @Hexy It’s a huge huge pain. It’s made me definitely try to shut down my Skype account as I can’t handle going through all that again

  • Weeaboo__Bot Weeaboo Bot (@Weeaboo__Bot) reported

    Im a nonthreatening feminist boy! 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 ‘that anime ***’ means. Man I’m so horny today. Sorry.I’m sorry. I just came out and said it.

  • Salty_Jenny Jenny Salt (@Salty_Jenny) reported

    @SkypeSupport I need help cancelling a Skype number that for whatever reason isn’t showing up under purchases. Cache & Cookies cleared without effect. There doesn’t seem to be a way to actually talk to a person on your end.

  • EmzOLV EmzOLV (@EmzOLV) reported

    @Hexy My impression is (and just from the Skype process) that it seems easier for folks to hack into an account, than for someone genuine to get their account back / get into their account if there's a problem. I'm not sure what to suggest 😓

  • codewithArvind Arvind Patel (@codewithArvind) reported

    Hello @ViCustomerCare, I have complaint 50+ time about your internet service issue (some site is not accessible after 5pm like skype, Yahoo, Netflix) in our area. Please resolve issue on soon as possible.

  • DanHMedina Daniel (@DanHMedina) reported

    @Office365 guys really need you to get it together. Microsoft teams down, skype down, phones are down.. business is dead in the water. No comms from your support team yet is a concern. #techsupport

  • HerMajestyJade 👑 𝐇𝐞𝐫 𝐌𝐚𝐣𝐞𝐬𝐭𝐲 𝓙𝓪𝓭𝓮 👑 (@HerMajestyJade) reported

    If a Domme says she doesn’t do skype you don’t ask her why or try to convince her. If that is my boundary accept, respect it, and if you really want it that bad they’re other ****** that offer that service but be CLEAR with your intentions.
