Kabar mengejutkan sekaligus jadi kabar buruk bagi pengguna Yahoo Messenger, karena dalam waktu dekat ini dimulai dari 14 Desember 2012 nanti beberapa fitur yang mungkin sering digunakan sudah tidak bisa lagi dipakai.
Ada 4 fitur yang akan dihilangkan atau tidak dilanjutkan yakni Yahoo! Messenger Public Chat Rooms, Yahoo! Messenger Pingbox, Yahoo! Messenger interoperability with Microsoft Windows Live Messenger dan Yahoo! Voice Phone In and Phone Out feature.

Yahoo! Messenger interoperability with Microsoft Windows Live Messenger
Yahoo! Messenger will no longer be interoperable with Microsoft Windows Live Messenger as of December 14, 2012. Microsoft buddies will still appear on your Messenger contact list, but they will be greyed out, and if you try to send instant messages to them, the messages will not be delivered.
Yahoo! Voice Phone In and Phone Out feature
Effective January 30, 2013, we will no longer offer Yahoo! Voice Phone In and Phone Out capabilities, our co-branded landline and mobile phone service from Jajah. As of today, users can no longer add new funds to their accounts, and active users who currently have a balance in their accounts will receive emailed instructions in December from Jajah on how to request a refund. You can find more information on how to ask for a refund here, and you can contact Jajah with any questions at [email protected]. Free Messenger-to-Messenger calls will still be offered through Yahoo! Messenger.
