as long as there are wishes for more sequences, I'd like to file mine.
I'd like to see sitting, lying down, falling down (tripping), head up/down
while pagup/pagedown key are pressed, high five would be cool but I think
the absence of collision might make it not do-able.

It would also be nice to have the telegrams you sent in reply or sent
initially. and a way to save telegrams to maybe a telegram log similar to
chat log before you have to purge the list which becomes enormous and
unweildy if you have more than 1 friend who is in another world or out of
range at any given time.

Still , following would be cool. Especially when the leaderr is giving a
"tour" of a place that's new to another user or giving a tour to a newbie.
It would be especially helpful for orientation of tourists.

You laugh but that is exactly what must be done.
If AWLD is of the mind that money talks an bullspit walks then community
isn't going to ammount to a pile of wreaking, steaming dung to them. My
suggestion? I absolutely love AW and its concept of an immersive world where
people can talk and create and do all the things that the real world used to
be capable of. Now though, as in the real world there are only a few people
who would seemingly seek to assume the needs and wants of those who are
clearly telling them otherwise are ignored, There is only one single choice.
Boycott. That's right, boycott. A simple technique of consumerism that is
the ultimate in effectiveness. It is sometimes the only tool we as consumers
have when nothing else works. Not renewing and not using and not
volunteering to help and even not complaining (because you aren't there
anymore) works. When there are no consumers there is no bread on the table
and so if one needs bread or the money to buy it, one will need to do
something to refresh the faith that the consumers once had.

To the "Powers that Be" . . .
The biggest wish on my list is that the Active Worlds product would include
an ear that listens. Not just to the chatter that sometimes gets in the way
of hearing what's behind the chatter. There are many, many talented minds
here and it seems no one is listening. If there is listening going on there
isn't much communication to relay that fact, Frustration runs rampant among
those who might become the greatest assets to your company causing those
same frustrated geniouses to become a liability. Those that would be your
greatest allies are your adversaries not because they have no belief in you
but because they do. And because that belief is shattered each time a letter
is ignored, each time an ear is deaf, each time one who means well but
doesn't have the right words is not taken seriously, each time someone who
seems uneducated, slow or unaware goes unheard, each time genious is
unemplimented.
In this virtual world we have come together to form a community. It's an
interesting thing, this community, for in it we find power in our numbers.
If our numbers were to reform in a different community would then the
"Powers That Be" finally give us audience?

You Go Jeffrey. I absolutely undeniably completely and thouroughly dispise
AOL.
Need to re-install your software again lately AOL users?

P.S.: I am making a page with a list of reasons why I don't like AOL and
why no one else should believe the hype in commercials, I will post it when
finished.

> Simple: I'd make NAC property deletable like then-COF bullshitted its
users into believing before buying citizenships. Of course I'd get rid of
charging for citizenship as well, relying instead on the REAL moneymakers:
galaxy/universe servers. If AW is ever going to get popular, it's going to
have to become more free. One word (acronym): ICQ. Just think how popular AW
would have been if it didn't start charging. The user count prior to
charging was around 200,000 for the 2 or so years AW had existed. In double
the time, AW has only grown to 304,563 (around 104,563 "new" users).
However, note that a lot of these "new" users are duplicate accounts, free
accounts (like that come with worlds), event-specific accounts (like when
The 13th Floor premiered with all those Pepsi### "citizens"), etc, etc, etc.
Anyway, if AW could have grown legitimentally without bloated user counts
and misleading/false advertising in their press releases, perhaps larger
companies like Yahoo!, AOL, or even

look at the 3D gaming industry is all that's needed here. 3D is overtaking

interface development, but you can read all about it at

Gee Modrd,
I thought that the company was just supposed to listen to it's
consumers-mealticket. Do you suppose that we really need to get together
union style? That would kind of inforce the US VS THEM feeling.
Viva la Revolucion!
DISCLAIMER:
The above remarks are made "tounge-in-cheek" and in no way represent any
desire to conduct a revolusion. Although a peaceful demonstration might be
in order but I think that's what we are doing in this NG.
