Kimi.... This isn't exactly the same thing, but I find aw slows my computer down like that even when it's not on top.... not sure
why, since theoretically it shouldn't.. Anyways, Thinking along the lines of your CPU power getting sucked down..... I find when I'm
not actually doing anything but chatting, it helps a lot to stand outside of any buildings, and "look" straight up at the sky.......
my framerates shoot way up, since there's nothing TO render but the skybox and things ease up some..... can still chat and so on,
with less of an impact on other programs I have running, like modeling stuff, etc. Not sure that'll make much of a difference on
the laptop as far as CPU temps are concerned, but who knows :O)

Saving the contacts.TXT is no longer needed. Your contacts for each citizen account are now saved on the AW server. You can log in
your account on any computer, anywhere, and you'll get your own contact list..... Save the teleports.TXT tho, as that's still local
to your computer only and will be lost if you reinstall, as will any saved telegrams in the telegram.DAT & telegram.IDX files......
you would need to save both, also........

Hey E, just drop it man, Eep IS a jerk, regardless..... you have a very valid point about bashing ppl when they can't defend
themselves, but it just isn't worth it this time.....Eep has dug his own grave here way too many times all these years, and has
never once attempted to redeem himself, much less apologize for his incessantly rude actions and insults.

The guy asks for it every time he posts here because he just cant seem to grasp the concepts of politeness, respect and manners.....
hence the reason he's banned yet again and CAN'T post here to defend himself, tho I highly doubt he could anyways..... some things
such as his behavior are just useless no matter how much you turn a blind eye or try and offer some respect..... it's a waste of
time......

As for everyone else, I've talked to SWE many times in the past and he's not some dumb angry libyan, and that was just an asinine
thing to have said.
Not very mature from someone who's bashing him for being IMmature.. E is actually a very nice, very intelligent kid. and I've yet
to see him be disrespectful in "person" So lay off him a bit, especially with the childish ignorant racist libyan crap..... none
of you are innocent of ranting about something that YOU believe in here.. so you have no right, and some balls bashing him for doing
the same..... he's entitled to his opinion and has every right to express it here, just like the rest of you do. He also has the
right to recieve a little respect in the process..... If you disagree with him, then ATTEMPT to argue your ideas intelligently,
maturely, and without the nasty, name-calling bullshit......tho that seems to be beyond the capabilities of most here.

Lets try and get it through all our thick heads here, that there's different kinds of people here, with different ideas and
values.....
You may not agree with or even understand them, but that gives you no right to slam a person and racially abuse them for it.

That angry libyan shit is WAY out of line here.......

If any one of you can't see that, then you're an arrogant self-absorbed jackass. You should shut the hell up and spare the rest of
us your stupidity.
You all were bitching and moaning about how this newsgroup was nothing but a forum for abusing and personally attacking others, You
were all SO happy when Rick came in here and started cleaning this place up. It lasted about two months and it's back to the same
old shit again.....
Might take a long hard look at your own behaviors. You're doing EXACTLY that which you bitched about.....
It's getting to be F-ing ridiculous in here that people can't act civilly and have even a LITTLE respect for each other....

If you're gonna be a hypocrite and do exactly what you complain about others doing, then just shut up already......

If you have something consructive or useful to post, do so, if not, be quiet...... and don't beat the hell out of others for what
THEY might think is constructive or useful, even if you don't agree or think their posts are dumb... there's no reason to be an
ass and insult a person or intentionally hurt their feelings here just because YOU don't agree with their well meaning
intentions.... That's just plain childish and shows your stupidity, no matter what you might think

Time to grow up some and start acting like the adults you all like to claim to be..........

Don't recall seeing any foam, but there might have been..... hard to say...
Even though I don't agree that I was being hypocritical , I see your interpretation......
I hardly consider it "whining" when it concerns racial abuse and bias....
there's just no need for that crap in here, not to mention it being repulsive and disgusting.
I will however, wholeheartedly agree with the remainder of your post
concerning the send button..... more people here should take it to heart
Perhaps myself even, on occasion.....

ethics like him, isn't worth you bothering yourself over........

Sep 28, 2002, 11:25am

Amen to that........
Btw, king adamant... There are MANY in AW who've had similar negative
experiences with him........
But I suppose just because you're in so love with the guy, judging by your
ardor... they're invalid.... Bet it'd be a whole different story if he
ripped YOU off

Well, I tell ya Carolann, it wasnt the fact that King Bluemax posted his
experiences. It's the way he did it.... he sits there and berates Mr.Bruce
for his postings (which, if you read, you'd notice I'd made, as well as
others have, comments alluding to the necessity of the long ass posts) yet
he goes ahead and does the exact same thing, beating up on Mr. Bruce,
insulting the guy and so on..... Now, I couldn't care less, as I don't know
ANY of the involved parties. It's when you slam someone here for doing
something, yet you're JUST as guilty of doing the exact same things, that
annoys me... Hypocracy isn't very becoming....

He very well could have exhibited some of the maturity he seems to show such
disdain for others lacking and just posted the fact that he has had good
experiences with heartfall and left it at that. Yet, he felt a need to
insult the guy in the same friggen post..... sheesh

Make no bones about it, I along with MANY others here do not like
Insanity..... He's ripped off friends of mine and I'll make no excuses for
my animosities. I as well as You, King Bluemax or anyone else has a right
to have their opinions and post the same here.... But, if you're going to
be a hypocrite, spare the rest of us your thoughts is my point..... nobody
takes someone serious who's full of it..... I'm sure you'd agree

And I seriously disagree with your "Lynch mob mentality" statement.......
The way I see it, if you screw people, you DESERVE to have it made a point
of...
Cant take the heat, get outta the kitchen.... Guess Insanity learned that
the hard way.......
I won't stand Idly by and see other unsuspecting people get taken....

*Yawn* Tell it to the people you duped....
I really don't care about all your phoney baloney self-aggrandizment, I hear
the truth from many....

I find it quite interesting that this "charity" or whatever you got goin on
over there doesn't seem to be registered as a non-profit charity anywhere
with a valid tax ID number.... and that heartfall is owned by this
"childscry organization"

&STRING2.x=32&STRING2.y=10 (if you WANNA start posting links)

What's that ?? honest ? Hmmmm ......

Smells of tax fraud to me..... abusing the privilege of a non-profit
organization for personal gains ? Hmmmm.... quite unethical, to say the
least...

What's that ?? honest ? Hmmmmm.... what's THIS then, hypocrite ??

Sep 22, 2002, 12:23pm

Interesting subject for sure.... here's my thoughts.....

1. Anonymity (per say) The biggest mouths in here, more than likely
wouldnt flap their gums like they do in a real face to face confrontation
with someone who might very possibly pose a physical threat to them....
It's a lot easier to call your mother all manner of names in HERE, rather
than face to face, where there's a strong possibility you could end up with
your teeth being put through the back of your head..........

2. Repressed hostility.... I'd have to imagine that there's a few people
in here who's REAL lives arent quite what they'd like them to be..... who
might keep the anger all bottled up in real life, then blow off the steam in
here. It's not too hard to see...... coupled with the relative anonymity of
a newsgroup, it makes for an easy form of "venting" so to speak....

3. Mental deficiencies... there's just SOME people here who are idiots....
who always have been and always will be jerks..... god only knows why, but
such is life.... Unfortunate, but inevitable...

4. Lack of restraint..... AW really doesn't moderate these groups all that
well, or often, in my experience. I'm sure, of course, they haven't the
time to sit here and read every post written, to look for the usual
stupidity and nastiness but had the rules been laid down and enforced more
stringently, perhaps this place might be a bit more agreeable..... Hell,
Even Eep behaved for a little while after his posting privileges were
returned.... But he seems to have this compunction to spew forth his
unbased self-aggrandizing opinions, all the while being his usual useless
annoying whiney self, while attacking everyone and everything in
sight....... but I suppose there will always be someone in here that can't
overcome their juvenile urges, grow up and realize that they know FAR from
as much as they think they do........

5. The thrill of confrontation.. Some people just "get off" on controversy.
They get a kick out of arguing with anyone over anything... even IF they're
clearly
wrong, uninformed, or simply "full of it" They just CAN'T resist stirring
the pot, so to speak.... even this latest mess with the AWnews domain has
shown this... people posting legal advice that have NO idea what they're
talking about... Unless the original owner has a valid registered trademark
on the name AWNews, there's just no legal basis to support bringing suit
against the cybersquatter.... That and the fact that Goober isn't the
original owner of the domain, negates any possibility of legal remedy...
And it sucks... The only thing that might change it, is a law being passed
( which wouldn't really matter, since there's no way to outlaw PRIOR
offences, since he has the domain ALREADY..) or embarassment by the media...
which I seriously doubt would happen in this case..... I mean we're not
talking about some idiot dumping toxic waste on his property 100 yards from
a school.....
Back to my point though.... It's sort of like a child who speaks, just to
be heard..... doesn't matter whether they're valid, informed, involved, or
even correct, some people just have to get their two cents in.....

It's a shame, because this forum could truly be so much better than it is...
Think of the sheer number of citizens in AW. Now think of the relatively
tiny number of people who post in the newsgroups..... Even THIS post has
brought a few out of the woodwork that haven't posted in quite a while..
Makes me wonder how many helpful things we all might be missing.... or THEY
might be missing, know what I mean ? As many have said, most people won't
post in here because of the immature behavior of so many that do..... The
only hope is if AW starts enforcing the rules a bit more vehemently and the
aggressors are banned when they demonstrate their lack of maturity,
responsibility, and just plain consideration for others here.... good luck
seeing that happen though.. But one CAN wish :O)
