If you drilled holes in ANY part of ones head, it would normally lead to
death... Lets hope AW doesn't kill its userbase with a silly "feature".

Usually drilling *into* ones head, means you hit soft tissue, brain matter,
etc. Now, drilling a *hole* in ones skull is another story... But, inorder
for something like a "matrix style" hijacking of nervous signals, you'd need
to tap into soft tissue. Not to mention that each fiber is tiny, and
covered by a protective casing, which would mean if you screwed up a tiny
bit, the user might be dead, or handicapped for the rest of their natural
lives. So, usually, you'd end up killing someone before you could take over
their brain.
Uh, don't sign me up please; I like living...

This is the second time in a few days that you proven that you have no
capacity to read. Did I say anywhere in my post that I would like to
"volunteer"... No, it didn't. Hell, I even said that I *did not want to
volunteer*... How much more clearer does it need to be? Perhaps you should
go back to school and learn English, before people start laughing at you.
Seriously though, you're either dyslexic or a moron, I cant tell which.... I

Ok, the only TWO ways to do this are.
1. Window transparency (crap)
2. Rendering the text in the 3d window... Which would mean they'd have to

Uh, ok, you do that. Go make up some non-existent code outlines and make
some bad plug-in for it... But, why would you whine about having to
reprogram it? I mean, there's no specs for a plug-in yet, so you'd just be
creating a fake one just for fun. You cant say that it was for AW, because
AW doesn't support them. So you're not reprogramming your AW plug-in, you'd
be porting your crap plug-in in AW.

Yes, to make room for people covering 10000 x 10000 chunks of land, which
will then go NAC, and we'll need to clean that up, and the cycle goes on and
on. I see it as a buffer for that kind of thing. Anyway, you'd remove 90%
of AW if you cleaned that up. Hell, AW wouldn't have much of a GZ anymore
too.

Its weird for someone younger then I am to call me "deary", an odd change of

It is against the laws of nature to be older then I am, so I can only assume
that you're younger than myself. About land, er, here's some random cords I
entered... And guess what, they all have empty land...
23233N 9448E
5344S 9933W
9982N 11123W
23355S 9488W
23444S 9999W
3434N 9992W
892S 9244W
8344S 8934W
Those were the first eight pairs of random cords I entered, and I found
nothing close to them. Perhaps you should try to be more creative, or a
little less lazy when finding land.

Guess what, perhaps you should have registered earlier. Or, you should buy
your own world. AWCom -owns- AW, along with the universe its housed in. If
they don't want property to be deleted, then, there's not much you can do
about it. You're starting to act like The Lady now.

I not wrong at all, I proved that there's TONS of building space in AW. As
for me being arrogant, why are you letting it get to you? I mean, isn't
that what arrogant people want? For their arrogance to get to other people
and thus make them feel insecure? Yes, and my "level", im sorry you cant
keep up. Maybe if you continue with grammar school, you'll get there...
Also, how do I act like the lady? I'm not trying to kick AWCom Management
out and *hope*, just *hope* the universe is running the next day.
