Hi everyone:

As I mentioned earlier, another BRILLIANT idea just hit me.

Now, we all know there a few of us who've had, over the course of time, more
than one cit, which in turn means more than one cit. ID #, right???

What IF AWI (AWI is the new ActiveWorlds, Inc. for those not in the know BTW
:-)) were to somehow ask if a person, when they apply for citizenship, if
they've EVER had a cit before and, if so, to please list either the screen
name used or the cit no.

This info. could be stored in a telegram redirection server in case someone
(like me) sends a telegram to someone who now goes by a different screen
name and now has a different cit. no.

Here's an example of how this would work....

Let's say I'm sending a telegram to someone named MrOwl about a possible
intrusion of his land by some sign-posting troll who has just *possibly*
taken a small chunk of land away from MrOwl on AlphaWorld at 4968N 131E in
the process.

Now, let's assume that MrOwl is NOW known as mrbruce (the owner of the A!!CT
world). The redirecter can then look up MrOwl and realizes he's now known
as mrbruce. The redirecter will then tell the Operator to notify mrbruce
that he has a telegram just as though I had sent it directly to mrbruce. He
then reads the telegram and responds to it.

Cool idea or not???

[NOTE: There *is* a sign posting troll at the aforementioned coordinates.,
but I do *not* know just who to contact and the GET have better thin gs to
do than go around deleting signs posted by such trolls if there is a
question as to why the land was never covered. So I just ignore the sign
and move on].

To make a bot or any program like this is too farfetched, it'd be a waste
IMHO.

So lets say I get a new cit. I say "I used to own the citizen called 'pc
hampster' before'. So then all your telegrams will be forwarded to me :)

i would LOVE THIS, however, aw wants to squeeze ever dollar out of us, and
theres a chance that people who have more than one cit ould renew the old
one for a month every once in a while to check their tgrams. i think this is
a great idea, but aw would never do it
