Not sure how many people have encountered this issue, but after a minute of inactivity in a mass convo, you are kicked. Is there any way to stop this from happening?

Join a mass debate instead.

So your the sort of person who starts these convos? (if you are, i hate you :mad:

)
The whole design of the mass convo things on msn. It really needs some sort of invitation system, im forever getting added to huge convos and every time i leave, i get added again. Got so ****** off 1 night that i deleted about 75% of my contacts :/ (keeping only the ones i know IRL and people i speak to on a daily basis)

Think its designed that way, if you're not there, then why should you stay in the conversation, its a messenger not a chatroom..... no offense meant, just pointing out the obvious...

Might as well use IRC if it's a regular thing.

No, its like me and afew of my mates off my course on Uni often chat to each other whilst doing the work, and it becomes a hassle if whenever someones been idle for abit and wants to contribute, they get kicked and we have to reinvite them.

I've never been kicked from a big msn convo for inactivity before, the other day I didn't realise I had been invited in one for half an hour as I was playing on the 360.
