This stuff is like the spark of the newsgroups.....I fall out of my chair
laughing over some of the ridiculous crap that ppl say here and how everyone
takes things so personally. Most of the time, the newsgroups is boring
junk....like "come to this event on Jan 7th." blah blah blah....I get
enough spam grams from various ppl who love to telegram non-useful crap. So
this is somewhat interesting.

HUH? Racist? uh....this is mild compared to what went on in the newsgroups
months ago....this happens everyday.....we're used to it....if you don't
agree with some of the posts.......Don't read em! LOL.... The people who run
the newsgroups have a lot more important things to do instead of babysitting
the newsgroups and deleting every little thing that ppl find offensive.

Then again, if that person were flooding the screen with "Shutup Shutup
Shutup Shutup Shutup Shutup Shutup," then that is a means for eject....but
for just saying "shut up" once or so is an absurd reason to eject a person
and a good way for AW to loose a future citizen ;)

I know ....and they are going to loose a lot of customers that way too
and/or future citizens....but AWI probably won't put a stop to it b/c
basically they don't really care on the citizens' opinions....which I think
that if they would have taken our opinions on some matters then they might
be getting more customers plus no one would bash them as much as they
do.....but thats just me ;)

Truetome2,
I remember a while back when there was a GK on duty and another tourist was
being sexually harrassed, yet the GK was doing nothing about it....he/she
was constantly AFK which I feel that a GK on duty should not have to
constantly do unless it is in means of using the bathroom. When you are on
duty, you must watch for EVERYTHING.....and what this specific person was
doing was VERY noticable to me and several other citizens online that day.
As a Co-leader for the AWNewbie WK's.....we also enforce that our WK's be
strict and that they are at GZ at all times....yet we lighten the rules a
bit......a slip up here and there isn't a definite means for ejection and
NONE of our WK's verbally harrass citizens or tourists as one of the GK's
was said to do by calling someone an "idiot." I agree with Bowen and the
rest on here as they DO have a point. The GK system needs to be improved
just a bit.

Yes....we put up with all the troublemakers and help out in ActiveWorlds to
make it a better place. I do other things besides teach and all that doesn't

That is something that we are given as a type of reward for helping
out......I have also helped with things and events that didnt offer that
type of stuff is what I'm saying and I still helped with them despite that.
You came and posted as if we are all a bunch of snobby people who are all in
it for the cit extensions. That is not the case....a post just got settled
for the GK's and PK's and it was finally over until someone brings up
another topic to have everyone fight and argue at each other. This is how it
has been for years 77. Why are you arguing and making all of us out to be a
bunch of "power-hungry" citizens?

I'm sorry.....how did this whole post go from a "T-Shirt request," to
European currency and shootings?! *boggle* This happens when ppl really
need information from the newsgroups...they never get the info they
requested b/c the subject is always changed to something ridiculous. This
is like an A.D.D (Attention Deficit Disorder) newsgroup....no one can stay
on topic LOLOL.

Matt doesn't hack.....he gets others to do it for him and he hides behind a
proxy. AWI has been on to him for a while now. As long as you keep your
ppw's safe and make sure NO one gives them out to anyone, you will be fine.
He likes to try to con ppl into giving ppws to him either by telling them a
false story or falsly impersonating someone that actually has that ppw and
saying that he lost it. Nothing to be worried about. AWI is on to him ;)
