Do you always say "bye bye" to the person you are talking to on messenger?

When you are talking to your friends on messenger (yahoo, msn ...etc.), do you always end the conversation with "bye bye" or anything similar? Or the conversation just stop "naturally" without anything like "bye bye"?

that depends. if the conversation becomes stagnant, then i'd leave it as that. but if we're talking and i want to leave, it's only polite to say my goodbyes or goodnights.

Always, it's a good habit and also explain if I really go away to the person I talk to or if the connection to internet had problems, because sometimes happens..

Yeah, I always say "bye" to the person I am talking to on the messengers. I think it's just a good manner or habit to tell others that I'm going off, otherwise the other person may think I'm still online or wonder why I do not reply. Even for face to face conversation, it's a good habit to say "bye" when we are leaving or ending the conversation.

I usually end the discussion with "bye for now". It is my way to end the discussion. I think it is better that way rather than just signing out right away or perhaps leaving the person I am chatting without knowing I am no longer there.

If someone starts to talk to me and our conversation is paused after some time. Then most of the time I will say bye bye and before I get offline. I think it's better to let this one know I am offline. I love China

it depends on who im talking to, if i know and like the person i'll say "bye, talk to you later, back in a bit, peace" and so on. if the person is annoying, i just ket them keep typing until they stop, thats my goodbye to them, when i don't reply.

Generally, I type "88", in fact it means bye bye!
