Maybe AW wants like a toll fare for all those crossing the GZ bridge to
chuck's event, pay the gatekeeper as you cross. Oh wait, maybe I shouldn't
be giving any of those kind of ideas now. What am I thinking.

Well Xelag, I have 2 citizenships which means I have 2 free trial worlds
which I haven't used. You are welcome to use them at your convenience for
those 2 months until mid-december (when the accounts close). I will not be
renewing my citizenship for either one until AWCOM listens to me as well.
This may help you or may not, let me know if it will. I can give you my
email if interested.

Possibly, but right now Xelag is the only one whom I have seen handle issues
concerning Active Worlds in not only a positive manner but productive.
Everything from emailing him for help on the Xelagot program to having a
program I can enjoy without being swindled for more cash.
For Active Worlds to not screen his name before worlds are able to be seen
on a worlds list so that something like which just happened is wrong. I
think instead of wasting the 2 months a world could be up for free, it
should go to someone that knows how to use it. Active Worlds can pay the
cost running it.
I am glad the issue got resolved, but if it happens again then what?

Active Worlds is not honest and upfront about their costs. People end up
paying more for less in the end if they continue. This is how: I was a
tourist and all I saw was a register feature for citizenship, after becoming
a citizen I found out buying a world would give a citizenship for free. $20
is nothing when you address one person and for one year, but counting others
and adding on years, it accumulates to a lot.
This is similar to Juno giving out free citizenships. If you had known you
would have switched isp's also possibly, but now that they got your your
money they won't credit you $20 on a purchase of a world. STINGY STINGY
Active Worlds. Well, right now you got $20 of my money, you could have had
at least $80 if you played your cards right. I probably would have upsized
the world and paide close to $200. They banked on me paying them $80, when
they should have credited me $20 on the purchase of a world, charged me $60,
and then watch me establish my world where I would need to buy more from
them when I wanted to expand.
Right now I have no world, I haven't established anything to want to pay
more to Inactive Worlds, and I can walk away $60 richer than if I had.

"4. (This is mainly for Marcus) The free citizens that come with your world
are intended for you to give to friends and family so that they can see your
cool new world."
Please reference me to the .html document on www.activeworlds.com server
(namely, the web address) or where I can confirm this assertion you are
making within the Activeworlds 3.1 program. Thanks.
"It is a free gift that comes with your purchase. When you
order "Time Magazine" they give you a free clock, are you going to tell them
to subtract $15.00 from the magazine subscription because you already have a
clock?"
If I bought the hands of the clock, and then I went out to buy the rest from
the SAME company to later find out the hands came with the clock THEN I
WOULD HAVE JUST BOUGHT THE DANG CLOCK!!!! Your analogy doesn't account for
the fact I bought part of something, then found out I could have had it if I
just bought the world to begin with.

Do you know the meaning of keeping your nose out of other people's business?
I was asking flagg not another user to flame me. If you want to start from
zero and have a real conversation let me know. Otherwise, don't interject
thinking you have all the facts straight. You do your research and
understand the premise I have been presenting for months. It has nothing to

HELLO!!! there are indents showing who someone is responding to (in outlook
at least) and you can scroll down and see the previous response if you don't
have your bearings straight. You are responding to me not someone else so it
is me you are directing your response to right?? USE YOUR BRAIN!!!
And read the context how I used the word "website", it wasn't just thrown in
for anyone to pick apart, but intended for someone who might give a shit to
respond with some intellectual discussion :::points to flagg:::.
Now, stop butting into 2 people posting unless you REALLY know what they are

I don't care if someone can read the context and comprehend the matter. I
also don't care if the same person responds. However, I don't see that. I
see people tearing apart the words without fully understanding the premise.
This isn't an issue of research, this isn't an issue of whether or not we
can find fault. It is to improve a service to provide a fairer way when
selling a product to a user of Active Worlds. If you are going to stick
your nose in, read the previous months posts I have made on the same issue
so you can better understand it and be looked at as having some valid input.
Otherwise, keep your nose out and let Flagg substantiate the assertion he
started out with along with the other inquiry I had DIRECTED TO HIM, no one
else since it was HIM not anyone else that responded directly to me
regarding the issue at hand without attacking me.

Well, now I can get some rest I guess. "I can't piss you off enough to see
any worthwhile reaction so I'll ignore you". Ok, you go do that Chris,
maybe someone with some intellect will respond to my post. Also, you might
learn something from their post if they do.

CONDITIONALS buddy, CONDITIONIONALS. "IF" is a conditional
I always want to talk privately. NOT CONDITIONAL
If I post in the NG, then I would like some intelligence. That's
conditional, why? Cause if I don't post, then you guys can be as stupid as
you want to be with each other. However, if I am posting I want some smarts
on the other end. There's that if again, hope you can understand what the
"if" is there for. It doesn't state ABSOLUTES.
Ok, there's your homework goober, learn the difference between conditionals
like if and absolutes.
Again, you have shown a lack of understanding, so I highly doubt you know
what I am addressing. When I see someone respond with some sense of ability
to discern truth from pure attacks, then I think there can be a productive
conversation here.

I didn't know was here to "express" myself. I am simply stating fact:
A) worlds come with citizens
b) activeworlds has a register button for citizenship and they don't have
the teachers teach about worlds before a tourist buys a world.
c) hence, a tourist buys a citizenship, then finds out about the world, and
then ends up paying Active Worlds $20 more than they needed to when it comes
to the purchase of a world of $80.
If Activeworlds charged me $60 for a world and used the $20 I gave for the
citizenship to be applied for the citizenship that would have come with the
world, then I wouldn't be bringing this up over and over and over again.
I will continue to bring this up over and over and over again until it is
addressed. It doesn't matter how much research I do, how many people I
talk, who can flame me the worst, I will continue to post here for as long
as I can telling people about this FACT.
It's not an expression, it is a fact. Common sense would tell the citizen
to not pay a company that practices in deceptive practice like once they
find out. Active Worlds has the greater knowledge and has the LEGAL
responsibility to inform the consumer of the services with costs before they
sign up and pay consideration for services. I was only informed of their
citizenship through car salesman tactics. They put one guy out in the front
GZ to bring in people to the teaching areas, and then they have teachers on
call to sell citizenships like it was a car.
Am I to blame the person who got me to buy a citizenship? no, but I could
have been informed to buy a world with it saving me $20. At least then, a
person could have the choice to actively refuse to not buy a world knowing
the information before paying anything.
The reality is, I would have paid them $80, I would have continued to
develop a home in AW thus upgrading the worlds and giving Active Worlds
money. They lost out on me in business and respect as a company who cares
about their customers. Well, there's my rant.... (pick apart flamers, have
fun missing the reality and chew on your addiction some more)

LOL, if is a conditional. It's not what I think, it's what is.
I would love for the world to always be ABSOLUTE as I am sure many others
do, but it's not, and "we" have to live with that FACT.
Now get your facts straight then pose an accurate statement.

As you see I am doing my homework. I'll amplify it again, maybe your
plugged ears here will get unplugged.
I am being cautious. THAT'S WHY I AM POSTING HERE!!! I haven't bought
anything like a world yet because I DID do my homework.
Now goober, you got this far you are ready to maybe get the point I am
making that they should have informed the "tourist" at the time of
registering about also getting a world which would have saved them $20.
This is fairer to the users of AW.
I would have either knowingly chosen not to get a world, or I would have
taken that opportunity and bought a world saving money.
If Active Worlds doesn't care to help me to save money, then I don't care
about Active Worlds. I would have spent close to $200 for a world and add
on to the space. I didn't, I bought the $20 citizenship. Now I have the
choice to pay for a world which includes a second citizen I DON'T NEED!!
forget that, it's just not fair to the person who already paid for a
citizen.

Well, I am in several free services now which are not Active Worlds, also I
am in pay services which are not Active Worlds also.
They seem to get the idea. When you sell something, you provide costs
beforehand to the tourist when they are registering for what they want.
Then, they can make the decision to get a world or a citizenship.
I would have bought a world if I knew the citizenship came with the world.
That would have given them more money and saved me money in the long run.
If Active Worlds doesn't care about that, I don't care about Active Worlds.
Keep milking their product you guys.
