  • New company uses skype for comm. It had me wondering why was everyone talking to this girl all the time, I even asked my colleague why he is chatting with her all the time....awkward~ Well done MS Skype, if i didn't know u better if would think it is the best UX troll.

In Skype open Tools -> Change language. At the bottom of the language list select the option: Edit Skype Language File. The Language Editor window will pop-up. Click now on the Save as button and save the language file with a name of your choice. Open again Tools -> Change language and load this user defined language file.

You will not see any "instructional messages" anymore.
