IMessages for OS X sucks
Am I the only one who is really disappointed with iMessages on my Mac? For a start, it seems to like to reorder the conversations I have with people (meaning I can't see what they have just sent me). Then often I have to hit 'resend' because it fails sending a message the first time. I hope Apple get round to fixing this soon!

I used iChat all the time until it was replaced by Messages. I've since been using Adium and haven't looked back.
Every single time I receive a text though, Messages opens on my Mac without my permission, often getting in the way of what I'm trying to work on. The rare times when I actually use it, the conversations are reordered and many are just missing.

You are not alone. I can't decide if Apple is just oblivious to the fact that Messages has some serious issues, the issues are very deep and a small team is developing it, or they just don't care.
Yes, it's terrible. Messages are out of order more often than not, or missing entirely.
hate it
It's almost a crap-ware. Doesn't look good. Is of no use, being iOnly.
FaceTime is a good app but being iOnly this one is pointless too. I am looking for a desktop alternative other than Skype.
Viber is a thousand times better, with it's desktop and extremely famous mobile clients. Wish other truly messaging apps like this and WhatsApp would go desktop too.
PS. Google gonna support hangout on others clients like Adium after full transition?
