you change certain righs or options for the world 90% of the world options
reset so cant change the world welcome message w/o the rights reseting and
the op chageing to aw 1 stuff like that (tip: cover your ears/eyes)STUPID AW

Hey KSG,

While I'm sure that the software has bugs, it's beta software and should be
treated as such. Don't call AW "stupid" because you've having trouble with
a beta build. Instead, send a bug report to support at activeworlds.com so
that it can be fixed.

When world server build 29 destroyed all the property in my p-50 world and I
had to restore it from a week-old backup, losing lots of work in the
process, I decided I would never again test beta world server software. You
might want to take a similar approach if you have sensitive data.

But AW hosts it so its abit more serious how many other worlds have this
problem?, it maybe the browser but I don't think so unless it hates the
server build

1) Always have a recent backup of your world's attribute, property, and
terrain data.

2) If you use beta software, such as the new world server, always expect
there to be problems instead expecting that everything will go smoothly.
Beta is called beta and stable is called stable for a reason. :)

3) I can't confirm or deny your bug as I haven't upgraded to the new
beta world server yet, but you should report it to beta at activeworlds.com
or telegram a member of the dev team.

You are never supposed to submit bug reports through telegrams; the beta webpages say this clearly :)

Maybe that's one of the reasons why I never got on the closed beta
testing team... ;)
