Um, why would I even bother reading it if I bashed it (which was HARDLY an endorsement, you idiot)? AW's "community" (I'm still not convinced) doesn't need to include this garbage--go to a sex story Usenet newsgroup or something.

Er, first of all, a 233MHz CPU isn't "decent"; it's quite obsolete, in fact. You don't mention your video card so you probably have a crappy integrated one or something too, so you just need to upgrade to an ACTUAL decent system.

Anyway, AWHS is most likely full of high-poly bloatware conjested objects which is why lag occurs, so the more polys in view, the more lag. Multiple lights and coronas also contribute to lag.

Unfortunately, he also reports security holes to anyone who asks him. He recently posted in Andras' newsgroups about the recent Admin Tool security flaw, for example...

If he kept his "findings" to himself (and AW), perhaps he could be more trusted, but he's just seeking attention like every other hacker out there--he's just not AS aggressive about it but he still does it.

Uh, not if they had actually FORCED everyone to upgrade their world servers like they said they would have--then it would not have mattered if they SPECIFICALLY explained EXACTLY what was wrong and how to do it since no one would be vulnerable to it anyway. Think, Daphne, think...I know it hurts you greatly but just give it the ol' college try--assuming you even WENT to college (I have my doubts)...

Then if that's the case, Sleepy E should not have posted about it in Andras' newsgroup. Oops...there goes YOUR "logic", Daphne. College is calling you...

Um, I'm not "scared"--more like annoyed/irritated (as usual). If you even put 1/10 the time and effort I have into creating objects you MIGHT be able to understand where I'm coming from. Until then you'll just be a putz, I'm "afraid"...

Huh? How am I wrong? I'm not. Sleepy showed world servers that he could still login to because they weren't ugpraded. Hence, he was (and most likely still IS) exploiting this blatant security bug.

<shrug> A mistake Daphne incorrectly assumed which I refuted and reiterated the point that the bug is still present on non-upgraded servers. Pay attention, dipshit-nitwit-twit,

Uh, http://activeworlds.com/help/aw34/beta.html states: "Note that you must now upgrade your 3.4 world to the latest version." Learn to read, lamer.

Xela, Mauz told me throughout AW 3.6 beta testing, the beta testers weren't supposed to report on non-"media"-command bugs until the end, AFTER it was already released:

Mauz: 3.6 alpha was just about media command, we were told not to post non-media bug reports :/
Mauz: until at the end
Mauz: when i was on vacation :p
Eep: but beta was released then...doh
Mauz: and they released it without any beta

I find it disrespectful to the community that AWI would do that. If you don't, you're even more of a gullible lemming than I previously thought...

[View Quote] That's not true:

Build 550 Notes (06/29/04)

Fixes:

Fixed issue where worlds list would be too narrow by default.
Fixed issue "Register" button would be partly hidden if the gesture-bar is off.
Fixed issue where toolbar would paint over the logo when resizing the main window.
Fixed issue where telegram-list would not scroll to last telegram, when control tab was rolled-up.

Build 549 Notes (06/21/04)

Fixes:

Fixed conflict when midi was launched using a "create url http://.../file.mid" command through the embedded web-browser.
Fixed issue where browser crashed randomly, under certain circumstances on XP with WMP8 and DX9, and when sound and midi were off.


Build 548 Notes (06/16/04)

Changes:

Disable Local Teleports world option also disables Local Invites.
Limit the amount of selected objects to 128 to prevent world disconnects. The more objects are selected at once, the longer the interval to duplicate all the selected object is.
If chat is not enabled , always display chat-input in grey (e.g. if user does not have speak rights).
Fixes:

Fixed crash, when leaving a world with ambient sound on.
Fixed issue where sign "text" was not displayed correctly when object had no name.
Fixed flashing chat input while in mouse mode and world attributes change.


Build 547 Notes (06/14/04)

New features:

Added ambient sound in world features.
Added mute all sounds when browser is minimized or in background.


> Whether is it wise to introduce a new feature before all fixes for old
> ones were being made is another issue and discussion.

It's a basic programming tenet...

[View Quote]

Jul 15, 2004, 3:00am

Note the "new features" section in build 547...

For AWI not to allow bugs about them (like global ambient sound disabling ALL "sound"-command sounds, which I found immediately after enabling a global ambient sound) is just stupid.

Why would I have quoted from the invitation letter if *I* never got it?

Is the 2nd beta cycle phase a general release? That's not beta version--it's a RELEASED version...

The plan was, apparently, to have the media command out as soon as (-"any") possible in order to appease some idiotic investor--other bugs be damned (and, yet again, new ones created from new features).
