Type: Open Building for Experienced Builders (Need to request from

NO! Building Lots. Make your own! ONLY Rule is to
not be HOGGISH on Claiming Property! Be Fair, since world
is not a large size! Room for only a select few
experienced builders. Deletions will only take place if users abuse
the privilege of open building without size
restrictions!
Future: Right now, the only objects and textures available are from
Alphaworld, and all teleports are at GZ in AV's. If you
were part of AFantasy before, and still know or have
the lists of textures, and custom objects there, those are also
available to you. I will be adding the textures and a
list of custom objects to my webpages for the world but those
will not be added to the website until sometime in
June. There will no longer be any kind of object yard within the
world itself, since its downsized to a limited area,
which I prefer be for the builders.
Owner: Sexy Eyes and featuring avatars by Lightwave!
Any Citizen Numbers received after May 23rd will be handled on the 30th
of May, since we are not going to be around to handle adding citizens to
building rights due to out of state wedding. You can either telegram in
AV's or you can send me email which I do get more regularly than logging

you forgot something: if everybody posted in HTML, it would mean a general
increase of needed storage space of 300%!! (not just the AWCI that would
suffer, cuzz to read posts you have to download the exact same data stored

I used to be on MS Cartoon Chat all the time, so one day in November 1999 I
looked in the "chat" section of the portal I used (and still use) and I
found a sub-category called "VR-chat" and there was a link to the Patagonia
homepage. So I downloaded the software (wasn't aware that there was anything
else than Pata at the time) and explored Pata. Then I lost interest cuzz
there was no way for tourists to build there at the time. then in the autumn
of 2000 I logged on again and saw a sign on Pata GZ saying that free cits
were being offered. So I signed up for a cit and that's the story ;-))

would be cool, but the price is a bit high...since you have a co.uk domain,
I presume you live in the UK, so anybody outside the UK would have to pay
lots of postage fees, customs fees and silly taxes AND the 20 dollars... and
you should ask the AWCI for permission, because it's their trademark...

in AW2.2 this wasn't possible because the bounding box was very large (guess
that it was just to prevent this from happening too), but since that has
changed in AW3 it's now possible... but ok, the old objetcs where a bit
weird, cuzz you couldn't build them right next to a street for example even
if the sign itself was on your property...

this is a UniServer bug. because the browser sends (and is required to)
heart beats at a high frequency and that the timeout period for normal users
(not like with bots) is very short, even if you have a biiig download going
on (heavy website plus for example world load) the browser won't be able to
send it's heartbeats in time, resulting the UniServer to stamp you as
offline. now when it does this, it should try to kick your IP as well, just
to be sure, then this problem wouldn't occur. And the reason for short
time-out is that a lot of ppl would freak out if they get disconnected for a
second and get "allready logged in" when they try to re-enter the Uni...

**In reply to JFK2**
Dear JFK2, please don't confuse laws about being sacked without reason and
getting your AW account closed down without reason (ok this isn't a law, and
they had a good reason to close it down anyway). they would've won a trial
if you would've been stupid enough to go on with it. Then you would be a
poor man, after paying a lot of money to lawyers, etc... that would be very
fine anyway, cuzz you wouldn't afford to use the internet, thus not annoy
us... so, as Wing sayd, please go on with the trial.

sure you had your dial-up card selected? DHCP is dynamic IP hanging, if your
ISP doesn't have one (if you have a permanent IP) then it truly won't work
