[View Quote] An example of what 'can' be done in Alpha can be found here:

http://objects.activeworlds.com/cgi-bin/teleport.cgi?aw_6505S_6556.80E

(er... yep... another shameless plug for what I'm building, this time
at Verge City :-) (can't fit any of the Beta features into my old
location(s)))

WARNING - As with everything I build... IT'S MAXED OUT. Those with
slow system may want to think twice before going there... BUT if you can
handle it, give it a visit. Best viewed at 120 meters (altho' 50m is ok
I guess). (If you'r on the Beta List even better...)

As anyone who does check this location out can see, I have better
things to do then complain all the time about what the Software 'can't'
do. (and of late I'v just been 'mark(ing) as read' the posts in this
Group - I can't be bothered wading thru' the same old story over and
over again)

My 2 cents...

[View Quote] need I remind you it's only $20 a year.. i guarantee all of you
reading this pay more to connect to the internet and yet you don't jump
down their throught at every feasible error (well some of you do, but
that's beyond the point) The point that i'm trying to make is that
sure, you can complain and whine and moan.. but you must act on it to
make differance.. your not going to get anywhere by saying bad things
about ppl who make the software most of us use daily, submit a
respectable letter if you want to see a differance.. that's what you do
in real life, and why should that be different here? bashing and
slamming someone whoms skills are beyond comparison of those whim
critize his abilities is not away to get anything but ignored.... trust
me on this one... there is a reason roland doesn't read these NGs..
maybe if you were more kind to him, he'd rather listen to your input..
most things don't occur without reason.. and i highly doubt that the
feelings in which you bestow did not become because a person is lacking
some personal qualities, although that is the case many times, i feel it
is best to give the benefit of the doubt, perhaps if the tables were to
turn, you'de want the same.. and i leave you with the golden rule, treat
others who you'de like to be treated.. I think it is the most widely
spread, under considered saying of all time.. just stop and think next
time you insult something which is not convenient for you personally..
ahh.. civilization has spoiled us, and once again returned to bite us on
the ass...

[View Quote] Immigration Officer: Welcome to the Gateway to Active Worlds!

[Customs Aide]: Welcome, Internal Affairs. For the Conduct Guidelines
please say World Rules or see http://www.activeworlds.com/conduct.html

[StockQuoteBot]: Hi Internal Affairs. Ask me for stock quotes! Whisper
HELP or 0:symbol to me, e.g., whisper 0:MSFT :-)

Internal Affairs: Hello

CeeCee: America has tons of building objects BUT their lots are very
small

Internal Affairs: Good day to you all

CeeCee: Hiyas Internal Affairs

A Citizen: hi internal affairs

Internal Affairs: hello ceecee

SMOKE JUMPER1: hi internal

Internal Affairs: Have you read the newsgroups yet?

Internal Affairs: About the "situtation"?

cabLecar gaL: sorry I can't say I have IA

Internal Affairs: Very well...

Internal Affairs: Where did VindicatorIII go?

cabLecar gaL: he is brb for a bit

cabLecar gaL: he will be back

CeeCee: Don't know IA he said brb and he hasen't come back yet

Internal Affairs: Very strange

Internal Affairs: Did he sign off?

cabLecar gaL: no IA

Internal Affairs: Is there a need for concern?

cabLecar gaL: nope IA he is still here

Internal Affairs: I se

Internal Affairs: err see excuse me

cabLecar gaL: hun I have not read it so I donm't know

Optimus Prime: Hello everyone :-))

Internal Affairs: hello OP

Internal Affairs: Good Afternoon OP

"xxsandmanxx": Hi Op.

CeeCee: (((((((((((( OP )))))))))

SMOKE JUMPER1: hi optimus

VindicatorIII: back

Optimus Prime: hello all It is once again time For Prime Time

Internal Affairs: Hello VindicatorIII

VindicatorIII: To FLY in AW, use the Plus (+) and Minus (-) keys on your
numeric keypad. Plus to go UP and Minus to come back DOWN again.

Internal Affairs: Spreading some welcome back macros ehy lol?

CeeCee: lol IA

VindicatorIII: You are now warned

Internal Affairs: why what did I do???

Immigration Officer: You have been ejected from awgate

After being ejected, I had no idea why. I didn't break ANY guidelines,
so I telegramed VindicatorIII and here is what she said in response:

Telegram from VindicatorIII, sent 8 minutes ago:

This is the only message you will get tonight. Your IP address and the
full chat log and copies of your telegrams have been passed to AW. I
intend to have your Citizenship cancelled

I told her that I would report her for misconduct, and this is what she
said back to me:

Telegram from VindicatorIII, sent 6 minutes ago:

You go right ahead.

Telegramming her again resulted in no such luck. I, honestly, have no
idea why this had to happen. It could be something with what happened
yesterday in the gate with Craig, but I am not sure. I am very
disappointed in the current GK program. If this kind of behavior keeps
up, I can guarantee you they won't be seeing another $20 for my renewal
next year, nor any referrals from other tourists from registering. They
really need better screening and more careful monitoring of your GKs.

I can name one: VectorScape (or did they upgrade?)
A *2.1* (yes, 2.1) galax (not uni) is AmeriWorld (gineric.com)

Not all versions of 3.0 need a 3.0+ uni. Any build before AW 3.0 b344
doesn't check the version of the universe server, so it works for those
old unis & galaxies.

One reason the distance exists is so you can have private conversations.

[View Quote] And a small arguement also...

My problem with chatting in AW is that I have to be close enough to the
chatters to listen....
When I'm building somewhere remote, there is no one around to listen to,
and
respond.....

There's never enough people in one area to have a nice long
conversation...

The only conversations I've seen were at ground zero, supply yards, or
at
special events. (Cy Awards etc...)

Maybe if AW allowed us the option to lower or remove the distance
limitations to "Listen" it would be different.



> sorry... I don't post on the newsgroups often but I found this subject
> delightfully stupid :)

Why do we have to limit ourselves by using AW alone?

We have these newsgroups to post messages about AW, why can't we do the
same
thing on IRC?

Just Wondering...... James Wyatt...

You posted this twice.. and in HTML! At least don't use HTML..
[View Quote] I too have witnessed Daphnes abuse towards those of Gor and it's really
disgusting that SHE represents AW and is getting away with this. if it
were some of us other ones, we would be removed from the premises
PRONTO!

I'm delighted that Jynx is in that Bingo and helps run it. I enjoy Bingo
MUCH more when she is there. She is ALWAYS pleasant to EVERYONE. Putting
her in charge there was an EXCELLENT move *VBS* Daphne on the other
hand? Puh lease *rolling my frigging eyes* I have chatlogs where she
has been verbally abuseive towards those of gor and it's not right.
She's making the rest of the AW staff look bad.

I vote REMOVE Daphne before AW loses all their Bingo players and several
cit's. I think it's wonderful that BVS has offered his time to donate a
wonderful prize to Bingo. I wish I knew how to create such beautiful
pictures like he does. I don't donate to CitBingo BECAUSE of Daphne. I
will NEVER donate to ANYTHING that has ANYTHING to do with her!

SoS and his Mom are 2 of the most wonderful, sweet, caring and giving
people to AW and I think very highly of the 2 of them and to see SoS be
forced to leave because of ONE person, then it's a shame!

There! I've said my piece!

Come back SoS
