supposr tanyhting higher than 30k) that TOOK LIKE 5 FREKAING MINUTES and
then everyone goes "its only a little bit of your time" or "they should get
boradband and stop complaining" GAWD html posts were bad enough i bet ALL
the html posts in the HSITORY of these NGs dont add up to this... didnt mean

first off i shouldnt have done that... i was just pissed off after waiting
that long and im sorry. second, ncc shouldnt have done what he did cause if
i had really meant it, it wouldve just gone into a flame war. third, i dont
think he was "dictating" anything. calling someone names isnt a way to act
in a newsgroup and no one should need anyone telling them that.

i released two updates to my 2 current public bot, hangIT and connectIT, ok
so they arent totally new bots.

HangIT Build 15:
just bug fixes (a LOT of them)

ConnectIT Build 2:
now supports connect 3 and 4 modes
bugs in the winner stays option has been fixed
This will probably be the last release of this bot, unless there are
bugs.

whether aw's realistic or not, its still just a chat to me... and eep you're starting to scare me... you sound just like my history teacher YIKES

[View Quote] > Uh, the realism movement came AFTER the Renaissance (at least 150 years after it, I might add). Yes, the 20th century had a lot of abstract movements, but in 3D computer graphics, of which AW is most definitely included in, realism is important. Realism doesn't have to mean boring or stagnant. Fantasy worlds can still be realistic in that they are believable, immersive environments. It's common to first introduce the gamer/user into a recognizeable environment (i.e. urban) and then gradually transform that environment into something less recognizeable (as in Half-Life with the aliens gradually populating the game more and more, with the player ending up on an alien world).

> The neat thing about realism in AW is that world builders don't HAVE to implement it into their worlds if they don't want to. But to deny more realistic effects to those who are desiring it would be foolish for AW's development.

get a deleter bot and log it under someones (a
friends) name where there isnt
any propery around (so it wont delete any property
other than tourists)

errr good idea.... i guess that would be pretty funny to see people trying to

...and changing the extension would do what...? i dont think it has anything to
do with the filesize really, but if it does it sohuldnt be hard for aw to make
their program work wiht larger files. this is more of a concern probably about
people going in the file and going 1 2 3 4 etc to put EVERY citizen on their
contact list...

ive actually seen a program on tv which compared humans to computers. computers beat humans on everyting including speed
dependablity(consistency) etc, BUT lost at how much it could store.. we can store about 1000 times as much as a computer can possibly
hold in (even with a lot fo drives- a standard pc can only hold as many drives as there are letters... and also most home pcs can only
hold about 3-4 max hard drives) Just my 2cents lol...

since the contacts list is line by line... and is REAd line by line... there is
no limit on how big it can be. this is just aw deciding that people shouldn't
have more than that many people on their contact list
notepad can only read files with so many characters because it opens the whole
files ta once... word pad can open larger ones because it reads files character
by character
