You could just run seperate instances of the server... It's not like
it's that big of a ram sucker for dedicated servers. -- --Bowen-- No of SETI units returned: 57 Processing time: 48 days, 5 hours. (Total hours: 1157) www.setiathome.ssl.berkeley.edu World HostingAug 2, 2003, 7:09am

Oh, so it's a per world basis that you're charging people? What you
should do is give person access to the server instance and have a program check and charge them accordingly to every world added. :P -- --Bowen-- No of SETI units returned: 57 Processing time: 48 days, 5 hours. (Total hours: 1157) www.setiathome.ssl.berkeley.edu World HostingAug 3, 2003, 7:03am

Worldserver bandwidth and memory load is very neglicable with a server.
It's like training to run the marathon and then only having to run an foot. As for object paths, that's a whole other story. Even then, servers are designed for that sort of load and should have no problem with it. -- --Bowen-- No of SETI units returned: 57 Processing time: 48 days, 5 hours.

Customer support is a whole different ballgame. We're talking about the
product here. Most companies actually get back to you within 6 hours if they're any good.

Yeah, because they actually do things and care about customer opinion...
instead of sitting like bumps on a log. I don't suppose you'd appreciate being reported to the BBB for customer harrassment? -- --Bowen-- No of SETI units returned: 62 Processing time: 51 days, 22 hours. (Total hours: 1246) www.setiathome.ssl.berkeley.edu AW VotingAug 5, 2003, 4:23pm

Nope, he is the CEO. I could file, the BBB could do an investigation,
find that this is more common place than just one instance, sue the company, refund the customers that have been "owned."

Sarcasm is meant to be clear and concise or else it defeats it's own
purpose. Mine was obviously sarcasm (yet you probably didn't notice it until I pointed it out) which is why you most likely responded with sarcasm. -- --Bowen-- No of SETI units returned: 62 Processing time: 51 days, 22 hours.

OK, let's take your drunk hand away from the spacebar area and go check
out the types of complaints the BBB does handle: * Misleading Advertising. * Improper Selling Practices. * Non-delivery of Goods or Services. * Misrepresentation. * Unhonored Guarantees or Warranty. * Unsatisfactory Service. * Credit/billing Problems. * Unfulfilled Contracts. Please direct your attention to * number 6. Possibly * number 2. One could argue that they could change the EULA that would allow them to act the way they do, but you cannot change a contract mid-contract (and companies that have done this for paid services have been found at fault in court). -- --Bowen-- No of SETI units returned: 62 Processing time: 51 days, 22 hours.

I said your hand was drunk, not you.
> You would argue with a fense post and have done so many times. > Unsatisfactory service to one young adult...what does that give you? > One hard to reason with young adult.....period. Stop wasting others time. The funny thing about newsgroups, they're voluntary. If anyone's at fault for wasting time it's the people who complain about reading voluntary material that can easily be filtered.

I debate, therefore I am.
If you're saying talking to me is like talking to a rock... then you can't say a rock with an attitude because that defeats the purpose of your analogy. Which one is it, a rock, or someone who annoys you? This is a newsgroup, SOMEONE is going to have the last word. By the way, it's not always there are some threads where the other person got the last word.
