because first it can take up to 5 seconds before the browser even
recieves the callback telling if the object has been added or not. I
dont know about you, but i dont exactly wait 5 seconds before i start
building another object most of the time.
If you dont believe me, use a xelagot. You know what that
"AddUnConfirmed" list actually is- guess what, its the objects the bot
hasnt recieved a positive or negative callback for.

an option to seed an object where you are standing (especially in aw) would
be nice too. A world feature toggle would be needed, but hey just cause you
can do it with a bot doesnt mean it shouldnt be in the browser
we can chat with bots... should we have to use a bot to chat? i think... not

of course all we need are two imature idiots in awgate to strip down and

not to burst your bubble but i dont think anyone is listening
yes it would be nice if aw was perfect *bursts out laughing* but these
things probably wont be fixed unless some easy solution come up and bites
them in the ass. by easy i mean something along the lines of some kind of

hah not all us schools are stupid... and when you
think about it it all comes right down to money...
my school has a lot of money and i mean ALOT but
the govt tells them what they have to do with
it.... last year they installed security cameras
everywhere... this year they replaced every single
light fixture and light bulb in the whole entire
school... and this upcoming year theyre building a
$30000 marquee in front of the school... why?
because the govt gave them the money to do these
things and only these things... im still using a
history book last year that had austrailia called
oceana... west and east germany still apart and
the soviet union there as if nothing had
happened... i think the money needs to go to keep
textbooks updated instead of fixing light bulbs
