Tonight while in an IM with someone I received a popup window... I have no idea what it was... invintory offer, group invitation, or something other... because it popped up right when I hit enter to send a line of text in the IM, but the popup had stolen the window focus and my enter pressed whatever the default button on the dialogue was and it was gone before I could read a single word of it. Incoming popups should not steal the window focus!

Seconded.

*Strongly* seconded.

And while we're on the subject of pop-up windows, can we pleeeeease take away the time limit on them?

Thirdeded.

And I like Shebang's idea of removing the timers, or if nothing else, make note of who was sending what in the chat history, or have the trade system IM us like it does when someone sends something and we're offline?

yea yea yea I agree too :-) that is soo annoying.

especially when scripting.

Add that with the inventory window zooming in on what ever you you accepted, the combo of those 2 together is a hard thing to deal with at times.
