[View Quote] Umm, no, not really? I'm not covering anything ?

Its just that the information is incomplete - they dont even know what is
going to happen with it - there is *no* decision on what is going to be done
with it....my communications skills are perfect, they sit a few meters away
from me - but, that story is very misleading in that it makes the assumption
that this world is going to be coming out any day now, that it is finished,
and that it is a completed project and we know exactly that is going to be
done with it - when it is not anywhere near being a realised project, and
you guys shouldnt expect it any time soon - in a few months yes, but in a
month or even weeks? No way...

Thats all =)

Alot of telegrams from users saying that they wanted it right now and they
thougt it was going to be released any day now, which is what the article on
awnews.com implies without saying it *shrugs*

No, it wont be in its current state as far as I know, it is not complete.

Why ? I dont understand - when I am merely providing you with facts in a
situation that you only even know about 8second hand* ? I am first hand
information...I just dont get it, I'm merely trying to be helpful in
providing you with the correct information.

I dont know, honestly, I am trying here to be truthful, and succinct in my
dealings with you guys in here, but none of you make it very easy - would
you prefer I lied and just made up things to please you all other than
telling you the truth? Moff Piet is not a part of AW. He does not attend out
staff meetings. Gand does _not_ attend our staff meetings, he is a contract
worker and builds artwork for the company, so therefore is not privy to
everything going on here and the plans for certain things. The AWBuild
project is on hold at this point in time - if anyone actually knows stuff
about this and can share it with you, its _me_. I'm not covering, or
anything, just thoughtfully laying down some facts for your information in
this subject.

You forget one thing.

I have been a citizen of AW since 1996 - and I was one of the most vocal
people against this companies policies at times, why do you tihnk I came to
work here in the first place, if not to try and improve the things that I
saw? Dont you think that may of also been a factor in their accepting my job
application (besides my technical skills)? - they knew very well my stance
on things, and that I disagreed with the way they did some things
sometimes,and sometimes I *still* disagree, and voice my opinion in our
meetings. But, its also my opinion that *I* have contributed to make things
a little better for everything and everyone, the community AND the company.
I've done a good job and I *have* brought up alot of concerns with my bosses
that I have taken from *you*, because like it or not, I came from the same
place.

Have you forgotten that ?

And, DISPITE all of these warnings, dispite putting it up everywhere and
trying to make it so, we STILL get many, many stolen passwords each week. I
dont know what else to do but plaster that warning all over the place - its
the old story, how do you stop someone being malicious if they are really
intent on being so?

We catch people all the time, they form little groups of shared accounts -
what most of them fail to realise, is that they also all share IP
addresses - so what I do, is cross reference hacked account with every other
IP address on that, and trace them back. Usually, this way I find other
accounts that have been takent hat we wernt aware of.

Its policed alot, but its hard - I wish I could think of a better solution
than the one I have now, but its the best I can think of - its pretty hard
when people dont read and follow common sense though.

[View Quote] Eep, you are in extreme violation of this newsgroup charter, if you
continue, AGAIN, after repeated, multiple, hundreds and hundreds of times
being warned, to not swear or be derogatory towards others, then we may have
to look into a weeks suspension from these newsgroups of yourself, and
further suspensions thereafter. There will be no full ban, but I have
decided that those who cannot treat each other with respect and decency in
here will start receiving small suspensions to the effect that these
newsgroups are a PRIVILEDGE not a RIGHT, and it is *no ones* right to treat
others, no matter how much you disagree with them, as lowly as you have and
continue to do.

I think this is only fair, as you have just shown absolutly no courtesy to
anyone in the past few weeks, not myself, nor any other member of this
newsgroup, and your continual abuse and derogatory statements can only keep
being tolerated for so much longer.

One more from you like this, and I'll make you go stand in the corner for a
week - stop being childish and you wont be treated like one.

If anyone has a problem with these proposed part time suspensions, well in
all honesty, too bad, because thats how it is going to be if things like
this continue from him, or anyone. This is NOT a forum to attack or degrade
any other individual, and I think its about time some people stopped being
childish and realised that.

[View Quote] HTML is *not* against the newsgroup charter, it is a courtesy thing that you
guys can work out for yourselves.

Marcus has also been warned about his behaviour several times, but not in
regards to HTML posting, which, let me say again, is not against the charter
as it stands. It is also not my job to remove off topic posts from any of
the newsgroups, if you guys want me to do that, then I will - but every time
int he past anything has been removed you always cry "censorship".

You have been warned Eep, pure and simple, no one else is being warned
because your the only one who is being derogatory, mean, rude - as you
always are, well, time to start acting like a grown up Eep, and remember
that there are consequences for actions.

Everyone is reminded that this is not a forum for personal attacks, or
derogatory language or treatment of others, and action as such will be met
with suspensions from the priviledge of posting here in this newsgroup. I
think *temporary* suspensions will show certain people that their actions do
have consequences, and might go a long way to helping civility here in these
newsgroups.

Honestly people, should Eep, or ANYONE, really be allowed to sit there and
say the following and just get away with it ALL the time?

"Yo, twit, fuck off, eh? Suck filter. Fucking evolve already, eh?
Idiot...buh-BYE!"
".. you fuck; now quit acting lame."

No, I dont think so - it matters little, this is a warning to everyone, not
just Eep - temporary suspensions for continual abuse of others in this
newsgroup will be metted out if deemed necessary.

Do you people want me to start removing off-topic posts? And how am I to
deem off topic, and not get accused of censorship? I'd be happy to do so,
but I dont want to start doing that and ahve people jump down my throat when
I do.

I probably agree with you that these newsgroups need to be looked at a
little better...maybe when I have time after doing these web pages I'll be
able to get to more community stuff, but I have my hand pretty full atm.

Please note, I have not at all said that the charter WILL be re-written,

[View Quote] No I couldnt do that, each object needs to be looked at individually, and
then possibly fixed, and then the registry needs to be added to, and then
each object has to be tested, etc etc

It would take about 2 hours at the very least, this is a huge, public
building world, and as I said, I dont have the proper time right now to fix
it during my day.

Its been passed to the modellers, and they will hopefully be ablet o fix it
up soon.

you think you know everything there is to working in a business environment?
Try again. Simply go ask them FIRST before accepting objects--it's that
simple. Put up or shut up.

I'm at the end of my tether with you Eep. You have absolutly NO idea what
you are talking about, once again. I have worked in so *many* business
environments you have no idea. I have a MASTERS in Business computing you
....wordless individual, I *worked* at the southern hemispheres most RENOUND
Business University in the BUSINESS department where I ran the *complete*
internet facility, I am so much more qualified to make an opinion on
*business* in an internet environment than you are, that its not even funny
to contemplate.

They know I am looking at ways to improve things, but I am also on a August
the 1st deadline for doing the enw website, and dont have TIME to do sucha
large project as adding objects, so, I am getting people to send things to
me, put together something,t hen after that time go tot hem and say "heres
what we have, what do you think?"

Get a grip on reality Eep, we do not live in Eep'sville, where things are
always as YOU see them, and stop making assumptions on things you have *no*
idea about, you always do that, and refuse to understand why people get so
annoyed at you for being such a judgemental individual.

Next time, like always, know a little more on what you are talkigna bout,
before you throw accusations around such as those.
