I spoke to David Bowie a few years back about Active Worlds. Expressed how
I thought it'd be a good business decision and tried to persuade him to purchase a world, galaxy, uni ..... He decided to go to Worlds at http://www.worlds.net/ . I think it was because of the naughty teens in AW. Celebrity Encounters?Jul 18, 2005, 5:20pm
I was kidding about the teens. Does anyone have a sense a humore anymore?

*laughing here* and I agree.... I don't care who thinks this or that about
what I apologized for.. since no one seems to read what's really being said much at all. I certainly didn't apologize for my feelings about how the CY's are being handled. These kids think all they have to do is come up and twist things around in the NGs or in public. They can be vicious and nasty. When I wasn't responding by posting to the NGs I was being harassed at the gate being called vulgar names by RossyBoy and others.. he'd go to the gate and say things like "ORB IS A FUCKING BITCH' and get ejected..then come back and do it all over again... if it wasn't him it was Strike or Gnu or one of their minions LOL .. sooooo now you know the rest of the story. I dont' bow down and give in just because some twit twists reality. Frankly CY's are more meaningless now than ever. Oh but I plan on getting attacked as soon as I'm at the Gate by one of them LOL ! What a bunch of assholes. CY Awards Newsletter [IMPORTANT INFORMATION]Jul 21, 2005, 3:27pm

There should have been elections .. if it's a community oganization the
community should have had a chance to be involved in deciding who is right for the position. This was all done without anyone prior knowledge to inform those who do care about what this committee represents. Mark isn't right for the position. His past record of how he handles things in the NewsGroups and other public places such as the Gate are good enough examples of why he's not right for the position.

Ok I retract my statement in this thread. It was crude, but geez I'm
getting so annoyed with this whole path of how things are going with this CY deal. I agree that Strike working hard at the project is a nice gesture on his part. There are lots of other people willing to work hard too though as he found out when putting the teams together. Also, it's not who's "in charge" of the project that matters... it's the project that ought to be the center of everyone's attention. Seems that power really go to people's heads and no one wants to be supportive when something so important such as an award in AW turns into a dictatorship. Make it as fair and just for all participants as humanly possible... the members of the CY team, and the public. Why oh why does that seem so tough? The Emmys, Grammys, and Oscars seem to be successfully put together. Should they be renamed the EGO Awards? Possible Names....Aug 15, 2005, 12:59pm

I don't mean just in Alpha World.. I think they ought to be able to move
freely about in all worlds to TOUR. Not to build. If world owners should be charged a fee then it should only be applied to tourists that want to build. Tourists put a little chaos in the order, we realize that, and it's enough to bring life and balance to the sterility we have about us now. Citizens and world owners by the numbers are getting disenchanted by costs put on them and by the lack of visitors. With the costs connected in owning and maintaining worlds it seems there ought to be some compromise. People see the barren surroundings, void of life and lose their interest quickly. Should the customers go away soured by AW or just go away? As the cost of living is rapidly on the rise { ie: oil , gas }there needs to be some relief . AWI, Please let us have the tourists tour freely once again. [View Quote] This is Getting OldNov 15, 2005, 1:09am
What I am meaning is more about having the free tourism back so world owners
want to stay and keep their worlds... not necessarily about having new people who want to buy cits. There's quite a few world owners ready to give up their worlds. Those who get worlds rarely keep them for very long because of the lack of visitors. Being charged extra to have tourists visit is NOT the answer. AND AW IS PRACTICALLY BARREN OF ANYTHING REMOTELY RESEMBLING LIFE ! [View Quote] This is Getting OldNov 16, 2005, 2:01am

I don't post to the news .. but for what it's worth, I've been saying that for 2 years - Let the tourists in! Next month my world is up for renewal .... Easy to let an empty world go the way of so many - gone. If the world owners would march the gate ... and picket to let tourists back into AW ... well, i just wonder what, if anything, AW would do about it. How many of us, after all, got tourists involved in our worlds and turned them into cits? We are the invisable asset - or I should say WERE ..... AW understood that back in the day, and supported our efforts. This was once the place to come to and communicate with RL people - it was everyones softspot in a world of crisis.... we - citizens united, could make a real difference in the real world - where ppl need a lil softspot for real. | : This is Getting OldNov 16, 2005, 8:20pm
If you do not own a world, and can only relate to what you do at the gate,
maybe you need to not worry so much about solving this problem. Especially since you seem to be unable to understand the feelings of world owners whom are responsible for a huge percent of the income of AWI. End of the LineNov 25, 2005, 8:57pm
Why would he tell you to do that? That does NOT sound like JP! How was
this even brought about, if it was at all? I wish AW was still ....Jan 31, 2006, 1:10pm
AW is going downhill and 4.1 wont' save it. They need to backtrack and
regroup where tourists are concerned. This is not a programming problem so there is no need to worry over backwards compatibility. |
