Wow isn't life Great? If only Goober would get off his anti tabloid back
side and do some work for once? Gawd god it would be brilliant... but hark I
move from the point of this post....
---------------------------------------------------
In regards to the AWI derived conduct guidelines:
Active Worlds Conduct Guidelines
The following constitute the general rules of behaviour while visiting
Active Worlds in Public meeting areas (areas within 400 meters of ground
zero). Please read these thoroughly.
Please do not insult other tourists or citizens by use of inflammatory or
offensive statements or images. We ask that you refrain from expressions of
bigotry, racism, hatred, or profanity. Please do not harass other users,
including verbal abuse or personal attacks.
Please do not engage in racial, religious, ethnic, or sexual slurs, lewd
comments, or generally disruptive behaviour in public areas.
Public meeting areas are not appropriate spaces for cyber-sexual behaviour,
sexual orientation discussions or activity.
The use of all caps is considered shouting, please refrain from using caps
unless you are intending to shout. Please refrain from flooding (continuous
posting of repetitive text)as this can be annoying to users.
Activeworlds Inc. or its associates reserve the right to enforce compliance
with these guidelines, which may include temporary ejection from the world.
Please submit any complaints or queries regarding these rules to
info at activeworlds.com.
In no event will Activeworlds Inc. be liable for any damages, including,
without limitation, direct, indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or
punitive damages arising out of the use of or inability to use Active Worlds
or any content therein. This disclaimer applies, without limitation, to any
damages or injury, whether for breach of contract, tort, or otherwise,
caused by any failure of performance; error; omission; interruption;
deletion; defect; delay in operation or transmission; computer virus; file
corruption; communication-line failure; network or system outage; or theft,
destruction, unauthorized access to, alteration of, or use of any record.
---------------------------------------------------
I ask, is there any rules or regulations to the effect of stopping the
displaying of URLS... but not just any URL's.... 2 to be precise...
The first is a link to the location of several backdrops I have made in the
hope of providing something decent to this community other than my amazing
wit and style.
The other, of all god forsaken things... IS THE AW CONDUCT GUIDELINES!
---------------------------------------------------
So I ask you fine ladies and gentlemen, how dare a GK make threats against
paying citizens for posting EXACTLY The same links as they do, indeed even
threatened when giving the link to another GK who request it???? Is this
what we want in a service, hell we collectivly pay for their damned GK
citizenships so shouldent we in some way be shown respect? Yes Maggie I know
you dont apreciate this but it is quarter past 3 in the morning and ive
spent about an hour being insult by a GK....
Anyway, after repeated threats, GKs threatening to use eject to enforce
rules that dont exist, nor have any need or right to, I get ejected.... I go
back, I say I get ejected... I ask why.. I get ejected again (thankfully
Usul steps in and offers me the correct GK abuse email which I had
previously screwed up sending the initial report) Im no expert.. ive only
been here since April 01.. spent 127 days online consistantly trying to
improve my skills with it and improve it for others?
I think we need some pins... very big pins to insert into the heads of some
of these aforementioned gatekeepers and pop their egos... Wow they have
eject and PS.... Good grief I have PS and Eject in worlds as well, heck as
far as I know i've still got CT in 1 or 2 as well. BIG DEAL.. why does it
seem ANYONE having PS and EJECT in an AWI world make them so ruddy big
headed? Struth some of these people make Gandalf look like a saint (Sorry
Rhys, you were an available example).
Good grief, sort it!
Now will someone please confim my suspicions posting links (especially 1s
GK's have said) is against the AWI conduct guidelines and hopefuly another
bad mark on the white tablecloth of the GK's will get washed away
forever.... then we can go on to swapping stores of more rule infringments.
PS: Anyone noticed how this hardly EVER happens with the PKs?

It all depends on how you define 'few'.
If it was once or twice, you can argue that in previous past actions.
Persons had not been banned from the Universe... however....
If this once or twice was like 10 or 11 times at an AwInc world GZ then you
are liable for universe ejection under the content guidlines.

I would think the best way to do it, would be some form of dynamic system
when it is updated as an object it built, that way when say an object is
build or deleted, only a single area of a BMP would have to be redrawn, and
then converted to JPG, its the same as what I used for my Terrain creator
GUI where you have to update some huge sized pictures that need updating
often.
