Yeah, by erradicating IE from the browser. I think I'm going to have to
join the ranks of the developer-harrassers and bug Young Shamus about
writing his own HTTP downloader for AW...

On Win32 you can use that strange "My Briefcase" stuff, but it wouldn't be

He meant that the OP is used by other worlds which have got terrain that
uses the default terrain texture, and that he wants a different one without
changing terrain0 (thus messing up the other worlds).

Do you know why I don't like you? Because you behave like an a..hole in the
NGs, and you don't seem to know how to behave. That's a reason. If you get

That post contained grammar spelt correctly, I didn't see any spelling
errors in it (the apostrophy in "I'm" and capitalisation is grammar, and
it's usual to bend grammar a bit in unformal discussions like here. I know
he misspelt it in another post, but the post you replied to did not have
spelling errors (the misspelling in the other post was probably due to a
typo anyway). "Now that is sad kid." is not proper English, so shut up
about it as long as you can't spell and write English yourself.

I'm not stupid, I understood it clearly, but it's not good English. It
should've been "Now that is sad, kid". I nitpicked on it because you
nitpicked on Strike's English. To comment other people's English like this,

I think an option to have them queued away in the telegrams tab without any

No, it's not. If they annoy you, ignore them. I was at an event in AWTeen
yesterday and I had to mute a bunch of people because they went completely
nuts and filled the chat with all kinds of weird crap. That's not rude at
all. Communication in AW and in real life are two VERY different things.
Don't go after the same standards in both.

I don't think that the AW fog system is good enough to actually stop
rendering beyond max fog. That means you don't see the stuff behind it, but
it's still rendered. So it only covers half the problem, because it's silly
to stop you seeing stuff beyond a certain distance if it still affects your
performance. Anyway AW fog looks bad and doesn't work right, they should
use professional fog.

I wasn't on much then, and I don't remember much of the beta program
(didn't sign up myself). But I think it was perhaps too unorganized. If one
did an effort to get a good, open beta program running, I'm sure it would

But this is not how news works! In the world of news, old = dead = don't
reply. When a thread dies down it means the discussion on the topic is

Technozeus stops replying to age old, dead threads, and stating why I
request that. It's a form of constructive critisism, I'm not saying "DON'T

Whilst you're dismissing what I say as rubbish, without really justifying
