In case anyone knows me whom I may have missed on my contacts list, I have
shortened my citizen name from Ryan Jacob to Ryan.

Was waiting for the opportunity :)

Oops, didn't mean to cause all this controversy. Maybe I ought to post in
worldbuilders next time :) Not that there is going to be a next time..I'm

Icon looks fine to me on my desktop..but on the taskbar (smaller) it looks
horrible (not to mention I have to get used to looking for it..I'm used to
the green icon or the red galaxy icon I replaced it with)

The movement is actually easier to get used to - I went back to 3.3 and
found it jerkier. But it seems everyone feels different about it, lol

User-controlled movement would be good, but should be up to the world owner
whether to allow movement to be changed in the world (i.e. game worlds that
involve movement could set a movement rate for that world..)

In addition to that, could be fun to have movement slow down through
substances (imagines mud flats)

I've been noticing that a lot of people who have been downloading the 3.4
open beta are dissatisfied with the pitch while flying...a hint: Go to
options, click settings, click the general tab and look at the box marked
Controls..there you can put a check next to "Ignore pitch when flying /
swimming". I honestly feel it should be ignored by default, but that isn't
the case.

If it were listed that would result in a large amount of new visitors

I am not sure, but I was having lots of problems with PHP and trying to
get a multipath to work. I was unsuccessful and a friend of mine failed
as well in getting it to work.

I agree that AW should accomodate these requests - especially when there
is a situation that the PHP cannot work / host doesn't support it, etc.

[View Quote] I would never use a program that required a credit card number simply to
use even if it included a free trial. I'd rather not give the company a

Honestly, it's not *that* annoying compared to some of the weird

It would be able to whisper it to you. The bot is under universe CT

Or perhaps we don't need a bot to filter out chat at all, and let the
user determine what words are filtered out by astericks or whatever.
Would make a nifty chat setting. I think that would probably be the best
way to go..since different words offend different people and there is no
way to accomodate everyone ...and AWI can put that list it has in the
defaults and let the user go from there.

The world caretaker can see who ejected who, however the Customs Aide
only ejects for 5 minutes. My best advice would be to not complain over
a 5 minute ejection as it's extremely trivial to do so (by the time your
complaint letter is done, your ejection has expired anyway.)
