when you get the area full message it means that the max cell-data size has
been reached, meaning that the property database won't accept to write any
more data to the specified cell. this is to reduce the amount of storage
space needed on server and to cause less lag for users. this occurs to all
bots that build stuff, not just Preston. You could for example add a "bump
warp somewhere" command on the flames (unless you have eject), but then
everybody that walks on them will be tported...

Kah's right. The best option is to teleport them elsewhere, but for the bot
to do that you have to be certain that all the users will have at least
version 3.0 of the browser and the cirnum used by the bot has eject rights.

Assuming you must deal with 2.2 browsers and/or don't have the necessary
rights, (and of course you can store the relevant information in Preston -
I've never used it) what you could do is place a teleporting object on top
of the user, as it Kah is sugesting, and then delete it again after you pick
up the Avatar Delete or AvatarChange - depending on how far away the avatar
is being teleported - message for that session being transported away.
