Everyone is entitled to their own opinion. Most run on tight budgets, as RWX worlds
are a hobby.

I bought the nodebot. And I am a programmer, so it is not like I could not find the
time myself. I was curious as to the new approach.
What is MY time worth? $25.00 an hour or so says the IRS....

So anyway, JKMT fully taught me to use it, ran the plotting for me in my world, (in
another universe even, after major modifications for free) and I made a good friend
to boot. And this took HOURS for them, not a few minutes.
While the product is fully worth $31.00, making the new friend was worth a ton
more.......

Here is a sign for VRT places when you have all these confused people.
It's not much, but works really good. It is for Xelags.
I have lots of people in my place that can't tell time anyway, so this
has helped. And yes, I know it is on the browser. ))-

Is there a bot for sale that can detect cracked browsers? I need one.
Prozak

Oct 16, 2000, 7:37pm

yea........ I spoke briefly to Ima, but it's not for sale, and he really didn't want to seem to delve into what you need to know
about to program for one...
I need one for a game world in OW, there has to be a better way.!
help from anyone?

I have bought quite a bit from these guys (JKMT) in the past, but can't
seem to get JKMT to answer my recent emails about a purchase on Sado's
signbot and changes needed.
I paid for it, and they worked hard, but it still doesn't wotk.
After three weeks now, could we possibly draw this to an amicable close
by:

1: Fixing the bot to work properly ie: stop displaying UCT time
(whatever that is and display VRT time), and take other bots out of the
vistors list.

or 2: Refund my money.

I hate to post this here, but I can't get an answer to my emails.

I know you have other projects more important on the fire, but I kinda
feel like a long time paying customer deserves the desired product or a
refund, or at least some comunnication. Either that or you loose your
customer base, and most certainly any referrals.

Why not yourself? It takes no special software. If you need 24/7 and
don't want to do it, JKMT does it for 15.00 US a month, and maybe
someone else, Ima might be good to contact.

Oct 29, 2000, 6:57pm

I currently run 5 Xelag's on my machine, via cable modem, and have no
problem. Buy lots of RAM though, hehehe. And I have 3 of JKMT's deer
bots.. so up to 8 sometimes.

Download and look at the way Outer Worlds does their banking. It's easy to
search for user numbers, or by name, transfer to multiple accounts at the same
time, and sets in the taskbar. You don't even need to be in OW to use the bank.

I need a bot that can detect cracked browsers and eject. Would like the
bot to keep a log of detected and ejected activity. Anyone in this group
that can do it?
Prozak

Oct 18, 2000, 3:52pm

yep.I emailed a couple of times to Alex of Xelagots also. the lagg would kill
the server performance for a fast game world.

Not to argue about it, I will have to fix many programs as I point at gotos
outside of the subs a lot, but why is this being done?

Not complaining, my scripts will be cleaner I guess, but I just wondered why we
are suddenly jumping to stricter conventions in language....

duh......nevermind....I re-read Alex's reasons.... I have had that problem, and
cleaned a lot up.. still have a bit to re-do though.
