London bombingsJul 8, 2005, 3:11pm
The public services handled it extraordinarily well from what I have seen
from the BBC across here. There had been several actual rehearsals for such a situation, which minimized loss of life and panic. -- - Mark Randall http://zetech.swehli.com [View Quote] London bombingsJul 9, 2005, 9:21pm
It is not that we are not flat out rejecting everyone, more that we hope for
your support in preventing things like it again - London and indeed all of England has been through it before in the last 10 to 100 years and London is, in many ways, the basis for most emergency response systems in the world due to the blitz. -- - Mark Randall http://zetech.swehli.com [View Quote] Has the judge lost his mind?Jul 8, 2005, 9:22pm

Yes, POTENTIAL fraud, and until it is verrified and AWI agree's, because
until that point they are basically using these newsgroups to libel someone on AW Inc's newsgroups, which I am sure they will be none too happy about. If it really is that bad, you need to *fully* document it and place it upon a webpage, and send the same information to Rick Noll. Until then, go play in news://news.activeworlds.com/bitching because, quite franky, not a single thing you have wrote has made me want to read it - you have yet to make any directive statements on the matter, and you are acting in a very inappropriate way if you believe fraud has been commited against you. -- - Mark Randall http://zetech.swehli.com [View Quote] PYRO GODDESS/MADNESSJul 10, 2005, 11:21am
Firstly, plain text only if you would be so kind.
Secondly, of course I am not an educated user - all I have is a poxy 4 years of consumer law. -- - Mark Randall http://zetech.swehli.com [View Quote] You said: From www.websters.com - li·bel ( P ) Pronunciation Key (lbl) n. A false publication, as in writing, print, signs, or pictures, that damages a person's reputation I hate to burst your politically correct bubble, StrikeRapier, however, ALL of the material that I have presented in this newsgroup is 1) my personal, first-hand experience and 2) 100% true, and can be documented as such. Hence, no libel here. If PyroGoddess is choosing to run her business in a manner that is un-professional, shady or otherwise potentially harmful to her bottom line, that is HER issue and something that WILL get around via the grapevine (as has been the case with businesses for thousands of years)! My DUTY as a member of the AW community is to make sure that both AWI and my peers have access to the information that I have so as to prevent others from being taken for a ride. I have written to AWI. I have written in the newsgroups. I am doing as I SHOULD do, as is my moral obligation to my peers and community. Are you an educated consumer, Strike Rapier? If so, perhaps you can tell me how people who run their business like PyroGoddess' stay in business? My guess is that they depend on the old saying that "there's a sucker born every minute". Also, I would imagine that most people don't file charges or that 'PyroGoddess' has just been bending the law to the breaking point instead of actually breaking it. After all, I DID finally receive my avatars (after 4 months and threatening legal action), and I almost got what I ordered (except for any avatar sequences or an avatar.dat file). To date, I have personally spoken with 5 people who have also claimed that their business dealings with 'PyroGoddess' have been less than stellar. Two of those people claim that 'PyroGoddess' still owes them either avatars or a payment refund and has -- thus far -- delivered neither. It cost me $360.00 and 4 months of aggravation to learn that she can not be trusted as a business person. If I can save someone that emotional and financial cost, I will do everything in my power to do so. 1) That's "written", not "wrote", and 2) as I said above -- while you are struggling to hold your tongue -- kindly move on if the post in question does not interest you. I stand by my conviction that 'Community' has a responsibility to protect as well as support it's members. Thank you for your comments.

Hi Everyone,
I would like to thank everyone who decided to drop in on the CY pre-pre-party which was thought up 4 and a half minutes before it actually happened. Over 40 people showed up for a really big party with top class music, which to say the least, isnt bad at all. I am glad that people decided to come and show their support for pushing the CY's forward! Information about applying to help with the CY's will be made available shortly, so keep your eyes peeled. The CY's will prove to be what we all want them to be. The mark of excellence in Digital Entertainment, Community and Design. -- - Mark Randall http://zetech.swehli.com Rapier in CY's ?????Jul 14, 2005, 1:36pm
I just don't know how to respond to you Orb...
You are vile. You have tried to take advantage of the death of one of my most treasured friends, and even though you failed in your attempt - let me tell you this in front of all of these people. I will never, ever, ever forgive or forget what you have tried to do here. PAGE did not deserve to have his life cut short. PAGE did not deserve to die. PAGE was one of the most respectable men I have ever met. But you Orb, for what you have done here, you do not deserve to live. I wish it was you who had died, Orb, and not him. He was a far better person than you just proved you could ever be. I am so sorry that this is how your passing has been treated my friend. -- - Mark Randall http://zetech.swehli.com Rapier in CY's ?????Jul 14, 2005, 10:27pm
My bot records clearly show I had logged on to the CT citizenship before I
even knew what was happened as I had been directing people to send any comments to it, instead of me. Coming off the CT privileges would have put me on PS. For the record, I am not, nor have I ever been fully in charge of the CYs. I am hoping that Teal and I can pull something off together. -- - Mark Randall http://zetech.swehli.com [View Quote] As the Activeworld Turns....Jul 14, 2005, 10:50pm
There is a story about four people. Their names are
EVERYBODY, SOMEBODY, ANYBODY, and NOBODY. The story goes that there was a very important job that needed to be done. EVERYBODY was asked to do this job. Now ANYBODY could have done this job but NOBODY was willing to do it. Then SOMEBODY got angry about this because it was EVERYBODY'S job to do. Well, EVERYBODY thought that ANYBODY could have done it! But NOBODY realized that EVERYBODY blamed SOMEBODY for not doing the job. Still NOBODY did it. The arguing got worse and finally NOBODY would talk to ANYBODY and EVERYBODY blamed SOMEBODY. What a shame that ANYBODY could have done the job and EVERYBODY could have helped SOMEBODY but yet NOBODY did it! -- - Mark Randall http://zetech.swehli.com [View Quote] Is this useful?Jul 14, 2005, 8:57pm

Hmmm,
WKD.. so so, I prefer Bacardi Breezers actually. It is quite wierd, when I chat with my cousins and uncle they are quite distraught that I do not drink beer. Personally I like the odd shandy, but beer for beers sake no thanks. Vodka and Rum alcopops any day, although Smirnoff ice is like drinking liquified sugar, quite foul if you drink more than a bottle. Favourite for decent parties is double vodka shots mixed with Britvic still orange, although I once went to a bar that did these cans of chilled still orange and it was the best of the drink I have ever had. Thank God I don't drink that often :P -- - Mark Randall http://zetech.swehli.com [View Quote] Celebrity Encounters?Jul 18, 2005, 7:13am

Guys Guys Guys...
This is a CY information thread, lets not have another flame war going on here - I thank the people who have defended me as of late but holster your rocket launchers please. It is fair to say that clearly 2 or 3 of the women have a serious problem with me - 2 of which I cannot actually ever remember meeting for any length of time; and that they will attempt to make everything I do as difficult as they possibly can. But here is the thing; by doing that in the way that they are they are causing damage, it is not so much harming me (because I can understand, some people just want to be out to get me) but they are harming others, and ultimately harming the community because. Speaking in CY terms, it will take me, personally, a quite enormous amount of time to do my part for it. Does me being willing to do this make me a bad guy? I don't think so, neither (from other comments I have seen) does the majority of the AW user base. It is simply a few people determined to make things difficult - and that's good support to have when undertaking a project of this size. I am apparently seen by some as 'the leader of the kids' and while it is true that I am somewhat centralised in the younger section of the AW user base it is not me saying 'call these people idiots' and them following, its the opinion that these people have come to on their own - if you insult them every other line what more do you expect than them to react violently, especially in defence of their friends? It is also very clear that people are not thinking about what they post on occasions, the example having to be ORB repeating something Rossy said (that admittedly I wish he had not in AWGate), and then 5 lines further down herself calling half the AW population ar53h0les. This of course suggests to me that its just blatant abuse throwing and that there is absolutely no wish whatsoever to act better than these people who she apparently despises. I want to now get on with these projects, I want everyone who can to apply to help us because it will be a lot of work, if need be let this thread serve as a reminder that some people would rather not have the CY's return, and how those people voice their opinion. I would appreciate it if those who would accept my advice lowered their stinger missiles, and when people do feel an urge to attack me, the CY's, or any one of you - that they are ignored and left to fall by the wayside because I assure you - we are moving on to make AW better and anyone who would rather harm this progress will be left behind by the side of the road where they cannot disrupt it it. At the end of the day, if people hate me they hate me, but that is a personal feeling and those people should not attempt to force that opinion upon others. That is how it should be. And that is what I have to say upon the matter. I most sincerely hope this post isn't followed up by 10 pages of insults and counter insults. - Mark Randall http://zetech.swehli.com CY Awards Newsletter [IMPORTANT INFORMATION]Jul 24, 2005, 3:23pm
