Well, I wasn't going to mention this until I tested it out more, but
be it a bug or a feature, if you use in combination with the astop
astart commands with a move 0 0 0 name=objectname, on an already in
motion object, it will stop that object at the position it is currently
at during the move when the command is issued. If you leave the area and
lose render of the initial objects starting position it will reappear at
starting position. Or if you restart it with a new move with a value, it
will start from it's starting point. Oh well. :\
I have an example of this in Forbiden in my test area.

Hi Glitter Kitty and those concerned,

I have been silent up until now. Your ranting of conspiracy is far from
the truth and therefore makes me wonder who should be in question here.
I have heard many things and I will not defend nor will I push out what has
already been done and knowing more about backgrounds than you can ever
imagine, I do believe you are stepping out of bounds.
I am however truly sorry that people cannot trust in those that are
willing to NOT take sides on personal issues that should NOT concern them as
a whole. We cannot play judge in a matter of personal dispute until the
person in question directly shows the Cy Committee that they are not
qualified upon their actions on the Committee. So far I have only seen a
few people that have been directly involved posting in protest against an
individual for reasons that I cannot base a persons expectations in a
position that has already been voted in by the community by those that have
been keeping up with it. If we were to respond to every protest that one
individual or small party has against another individual, we would probably
run out of candidates really quick.
I do appreciate your concerns in this matter and am truly sorry that you
have conflict with one of the judge members, but we cannot base a handful of
people as being the representatives of an entire community. I wish there is
something I could do to make this easier for all parties concerned, but I
cannot find anything in my pocket to remedy this.
I know I have not said anything to change your thoughts, but I do hope
that you understand that I do trust in AlphaBit even if at times she might
get a bit frustrated and respond on a personal level.. I guess she's human
too..
Now here is something I wasn't going to share with you and the rest, but
thought it only fair to you and AlphaBit that I did. She DID ask me for my
thoughts on this subject for she was concerned for the very reasons that has
happened here in the NG's. I basically said, "Oh well. We'll see what
happens. It should be interesting. " With that statement, I merely meant,
what is done is done and we can't let the personal feelings of a few
interfere with the outcome. This doesn't mean we won't keep a watchful eye
though. ;)

Thank you for reading.

On behalf of the CyAwards:

If you feel that the event is not up to par to your standards, the
polite way of making a suggestion would be to contact one of the core
members of the Cy Awards with your requests or thoughts so that we might
calmly discuss the matter and have a meeting to determine the value of your
request. If there is something you do not like, then tell us and then it
would also be nice if you could offer a valuable solution that may remedy
the problem. Granted that we can not address every situation to satisfy all
people and will do our best to compromise for the major part of the
Community.
All personal matters must be handled outside of the CyAwards, no matter
what the subject. If the "Community" as a whole has a problem with a
member, then the Community has the chance to vote or not vote for that
member. If your hearts change afterward, then do what you think is right
during the next voting process to make you feel better about it.
If a member of the CyAwards creates a problem within the CyAwards that
is directly against the core or the expectations of a member within, they
will be at the mercy of the core's decisions at that time. ;)

On a personal Note:

Buyer beware:

When dealing with Online business, it is best to do a little homework
before doing any business with them at all...(Common Sense) If you cannot
find the proper information, then you are dealing with a business at your
own risk.
If both parties feel they have to defend themselves within an open NG
forum, then I believe both parties are at fault and should deal with it in
a more professional means other than the NG's. In my definition of Fault, I
mean, both have contributed to these newsgroups and have instantly both lost
my interest in any seriousness of any acts between them. ( Meaning it sounds
to me that they both have lowered to a very personal involvement and this
has nothing to do with me or the CyAwards. (see above)

To Glitter Kitty,

I admire your consistency. :) You certainly have shown you can maintain
your posture in the NG's. I'm taking note of this for when I need a
partner on my side of a debate. We'll try and make it more structured
though and something a bit more important than one person's education and
one person's business ethics, ok? ;)
Personally, I am not happy about the situation, it is a sad thing, but I
have no sympathy for either party on the way they dealt with things. This
will probably be my last thoughts on this for I need to move onto things
that do concern me. Take care.

Sincerely
Bits

To Brock:

I have been going to DLP for quite a while now. I have not seen you
there. I do not know what your talking about. I have not seen anything
"corrupt" as you say within the management. Yes, management there may seem
to be different than you expect. The owners enjoy the medium the same as
the users. There are people that come in there and think that things should
be run one way or another and when things don't look just right to them, all
they do is complain and attack. Reading the NG's proves this all by itself
with all kinds of topics. I find the owners of DLP to be.. Hmmm.. What's
the word? Oh yeah. HUMAN
The old saying goes. You can't please all the people all of the time.
You might be wise to not alienate other universes, because most likely you
might be saying something that could cause owners from many worlds and many
universes to look at you and know your not a person they would welcome
because of your off handed accusations based on nothing more than your
opinions or rumors you might have heard. ;)
I agree with Shalimar. Please define exactly what you mean by
"Corrupt". Because if you have any concrete evidence that these gentle
nice people are corrupt, I would really like to know. If you don't want to
say it to the public, I'll be happy to listen to you in email.

To Everyone Else:

I find it really funny that some people have to sneak into other
universes with another alias and don't want people to know they are doing
it. LOL
I am not ashamed to admit that I have friends ALL OVER! :) I like AW and
respect all universe owners that give us the ability to have variety. No
shame in that.

Dear Eep²,

You also have to realize, it's not the person replying to the
message that has a lot of control over how the original text looks all
the time. It's the original sender of the message that has control on
how the message is being broken up. I have set mine to 77 character
width, which is a standard on most all email and news reader display
characteristics. As you can see, the quoted text below is exactly how I
receive it with the exception of the reply line header character I have
chosen to use. So please get off this kick about how people should post
and just accept the fact that not everyone cares about it the way you
do. :) Besides, I'd rather see each line with a character header
anyhow, because the way YOU reply.. How would I know what was quoted
and what is being replied to? Oh wait, duh me, the attacking text is
yours.. LOL

Sincerely Bits

PS: Your nagging seems to contribute to overloaded threads and wasted
band width because of the domino effect that it causes.. Therefore, you
are guilty of useless blah in the news groups (such as this message) and
hereby granted the "Redundant Award" of the year. ;) If you consider
this a flame toward Eep, you are wrong, this was posted out of total
boredom and I just wanted to waste bandwidth, HD space and your time..
:) Oh, and replying to this would be pointless, because it's pretty
much a repeat of a repeat of yet many more repeats of wasted replied to

Hmmm.. Actually this is on topic in relation to Napster's outcome

away if Napster loses the battle??

So, by supporting Napster, you will also be keeping the highway clear of

Maybe that's the problem?
[ To many complaints, responses to the complaints, and then
complaints to the responses to the complaints, and then..(etc.) ]
Well, you get the idea, I'm practicing the very same thing I'm
trying to point out here. :) <-- Valid Smiley
Yes I know it can be frustrating to wonder if your going to open a
post and find any real intelligent replies or just more bashing and I
also know that many posts by some individuals is part of their daily
routine to make sure they are always part of the action, put a few
newbies down just to make themselves feel bigger.
Well, I have been reading the NG's for quite a while now and at
times I laugh, I yawn or I just right click the group and press the
catch up button cause I didn't see any new interesting Subject headers,
only continuous threads of ( Ego Tripping NG Hounds )
I at times am very happy to see a nice flowing thread that started
with a question and actually ended up with a solution or even a
compromise, or an actual debate with all parties bringing in some
fantastic points of view to broaden the horizons on a subject. Those are
the times I consider the NG's being used as a community conversation
place and it makes me proud to be part of it. On the other hand, I also
have to realize as many do, the world is a grand mix of people with ever
changing attitudes and habits and I myself am a part of that.

Ok, here is my opinion on it all.

First off: ( Agreeing or disagreeing with me is not an option here. If
you do, cool, if you don't, that's your opinion and so be it. I think
it's time for a change myself and whether it does or doesn't would not
change who I am or how I feel or life in general, but I do have a voice
and I do count as a person. With that said... )

If the poster is being a pain in the arse on purpose and it's
obvious, your replies to that nature are just as much a pain in the
arse.

If the poster expresses themselves with over populated smiley's or !
( Big deal!! ) Who knows, maybe they are just so happy they can type
without having to worry about stuttering on all us fine folk?

So don't worry how your putting the message out, but please,
remember that your posting to NOT ONLY those that are rucking the muck
so to speak, but many others that are reading and are usually being
silent because of the same fears of being pulled through the same mud
hole. Ignore the bears, weasels and chipmunks and know that if it's
important enough to you, it could be important to someone else also.
If your post gets attacked, who cares? What are they going to do? Come
to your house and give you spelling lessons, punctuation lessons, etc..?
When the minority is the only group you see posting, they seem like
the majority of the NG's readers. (FALSE) They are only the minority
that like to type in the NG's and that's it! ;)
Ok, I'm done. I guess I'll stifle it for now. ;)
For those of you that actually read to the bottom of this, Hi there
and enjoy life for what it is and not for how people make it! :)
Sincerely
Bits

are reaching beyond reality here. You obviously did not read or
understand the disclaimer that Facter posted here. It simply states
that they (AWcom) are not liable for anything you might see or read that
you cannot tolerate. You as a user have agreed to this when you decided
to use the software, you are responsible for yourself and so is every
user that uses the medium. I also saw that there was nothing in that
disclaimer stating that they would respond to your email or that they
would act on your content.

Basically, if you don't like it, report it. You have done that. If
they decide they don't like it either, then so be it.

Quote in part:
"You hereby release AWCOM from any and all liability for all
claims related to Content as well as claims related to the security or
level
of privacy provided."

If this sounds like I am saying to you, "IMO, your just blowing a
lot of air to get attention and using this subject as a means to get
it.", I am. ;) As I said before, be responsible for yourself and allow
the rest of us to be responsible for ourselves.

Pssst: If AWcom willingly displays porn to you via the company, go get
em Tiger! ;)

I addressed this to you m a r c u s but I also wanted to share my
insight on this with the rest of the group. Some may agree, some may not
care and others are probably getting tired of this topic. I apologize
about the IMO line above if I am false with that thought. I still hold
strong to the rest of the content of this post.

Sincerely
Bits

That's because they creatively made the A and the W a combined symbol. Look again with that in mind. ;)

You CAN use 5 circles and you CAN link them together. I do believe if you link them together the way that the Olympics links
them together and make them the exact colors they do and then you try to label that LOGO as something else for profit for which it
stands without proper authorization and recognition of source. Then you might be infringing upon copyright laws.
In my opinion, I really don't think anyone with REAL authority is going to care if you use the Olymypic's logo for what your
attempting here. It's not like your trying to make profit from it or anything like that. :) It's not like your using a logo that
isn't very well known either. ;)

I wonder if AW would attack if you called it the Awlympics? :)

Ok, I say we change the webpage to DARK RED background with LIGHT BLUE
Fonts.

To computerizer:
Normally I would address something of this nature to you in a more
personal message via E-mail or some other form of private communications,
but in light of what I have been reading, I felt I would do it publicly. I
would like to say 1st, Thank You for your time, efforts in what you have
done so far. I know as well as you probably know, you cannot please
everyone and there are even a few people that will never allow you to please
them. ;) I see you do show concern with your works as well as the concerns
for the general publics opinion. Please do not feel you have to make a
statement or justify everything you do, especially when it comes to working
on the CY team. Do what I do, just say, "hmmm.. I'll have to think about
that. Thanks!" :)

To everyone else this applies to:
Thank you very much for your concerns on how the pages should or should
not look. Your opinions are read and noted and may or may not be complied
to.
Instead of paying so much attention to graphics, designs, thrills, chills..
etc.. Let's be more concerned with content, information and ways we can
actually help the bigger picture. If you don't feel there is a bigger
picture and all this is just a waste of time, why are you even reading this?
;) ( This is not a rhetorical question. )
All in all, I'm sure each of us would rather have a few encouraging
comments thrown at us and in turn would help us want to please another even
more, but one negative comment could have many times the opposite effect and
discourage us and puts a damper on what we set out to do in the first place.
*Constructive Criticism 101*
Thanks for reading.
