We want you to trim down a 12k post, when you're adding a single sentance to
the post. We want you to pull your head out of your ass, and take a look at
the real world, rather than whatever alternate universe you exist in. Better
yet, we want you to shrivel up, like a hemerrhoid with the proper
application of Preparation H. PS Have a nice day.

BOTH can be equally obscene, when they are without any redeeming social

Please - it's getting late - we got any Europeans or Australians to step in
for the overnight shift with this chucklehead?
Folks - he's delusional. He's on a mission from God. Don't bother trying to
talk reason to him - the sheer volume of his posts points to him liking to
read his name in print. He's prolly sprouting a chubby even as we speak. He
don't need pornography in a pict3, he's getting off on all the attention
here.
Buh-bye, say hello to Mr kill-filter.

I read this closely. According to their updated price structure,
citizenships given with worlds will not be effected. So, on citizen renewal,
you buy a 10/5 world <initial cost, $69.95 registration + $10 world fee,
renewal at $10 annually>. Included with the cost of this world is 1
citizenship. The first year, you will realize a $34 savings, the second year
more like $104 savings...

Rather than going off on a tangent, approach this from a world owners
standpoint, in figuring out who to contact.
I know of the world Loki - it was a 50/10, means 3 cit numbers on
renewal, all sequential. Search on 314062, 061, 064, 065, and get the
citizen name attached to these accounts - they will most likely be the world
owner. I also know the world owner, and AWCOM policy on citizenships
attached as part of a world. At ANY time, the world owner can reclaim the
account, and ask for a reissue of the password. I give you this piece of
advice when you talk to the world owner . You give them attitude like you
put forth in this thread, and you'll be SOL. You approach them reasonably,
and you might be able to work out some sort of compromise of some sort.

1) Attachments of that size are generally frowned on in here. Hell, I didn't
attach 2 small .rwx files out of respect for common Usenet etiquette.
2) I don't know what world you got the objects from, but the object path at:

I talked to both Hamfon and Roland on this issue. I didn't totally
understand the exact specifics of how whispers are conveyed (session level,
IP based peer to peer, etc.), but the impression I was left with was this.
The world server client would have to be rewritten to intercept whisper
traffic happening within a world - and not just patched, major portions of
code would have to be rewritten to allow this practice. Needless to say,
this is not likely to happen in the near future, but it indeed is not
impossible.

and he is correct in that. Any whisper hijacking has to be done on the
server side since it's not a peer to peer communication nor a broadcast.
Knowledge of the AW encryption protocol is required but as Roland once said
if the exe is on your machine anything is possible.

something, to see whispers not directed at you, or are they sent directly to

could do that, and I seriously doubt it. Anyone knows?

OK - some 120+ posts later, over an interval of 3-4 days, this "citizen" has
gone a little bit too far. His posts are completely off topic,
argumentative, in questionable taste, and subverting what miniscule useful
content still exists in these news groups. Any possibility you can pull this
guys posting right, or introduce him to the NGs charter? It's obvious, on
his own, he has absolutely no self control. Thanks, Mongo

Keep it up, Einstein - the more volume of nonsensical, totally off topic
posts you generate, the better the chances of us getting someone at AWCOM to
pull your posting privs. The sooner you STFU, the better your chances at
posting longevity here. Have a great day - and do get up from that chair,

Very simple folks - we gots us a troll here.
I don't care how you slice it, dice it, justify it - it's a troll.
SunOfSolaris, in the last 300 posts to this news group, has generated by
himself 43% of the posting volume to this news group. I sucked a clean feed
of 300 posts, then kill filtered out his Email address. 300 posts dropped to
171. Sure, he's mildly amusing - but he's out of control.
Only one of three things will cut down on the signal to noise ratio here. He
can stop posting, not a likely scenario. Flagg can remove his ability to
post, also not a likely scenario. Or...
We can stop feeding the attention starved lil weasel, and let him move on
when he doesn't receive the attention he craves.
Food for thought, eh?

1) rename the art folder in your cache to something like art2.
2) Start up AW, and enter all 4 worlds.
3) Look in the cache folder, art sub-folder, at the folder names. AW naming
convention places "-" rather than "/" - besides that, the path reads exactly
as the names on the folder.
4) Delete the art folder, rename the art2 back to art, to reset your cache
as it was before you went hunting.

Duskbat doesn't need info squares - he has more than enough guerrila style
advertisements sneaked into the GZ area to advertise well enough on his own.
And a PK to boot, this is one hell of an example - :)

I have arrived.
I eagerly await the contest, and the chance to see if the kevlar I had
sewn into the cape of my clint5.rwx protects me from knife and spear
penetration from the back. I didn't notice, does the cape cover my butt?
Does this outfit make me look fat? And I'm smoking a blunt 24/7 in this
avatar - I hope I don't get a hackers cough (No, not THAT kind of hacker).
More later, as my feeble atempts at humor come to mind - Mongo

First of all, my apologies for not attending the first official function of
the survivor series. My first challenge, issued me by the gods of fate, will
be to return my cellar floor to a dry concrete slab, from the watery wading
pool it became after the water heater liner split. I've used a wet/dry
vacuum to get it down to puddles - :) Now my first personal immunity
challenge comes tomorrow morning, when I wrestle an oversized thermos bottle
into the cellar without breaking it, and do the plumbing and electrical work
to get it running.

Sounds like I missed a good time - I'm sure I'll meet my teammates on the
fly.
