You're logging telegrams?

"at will"? it's an all or nothing deal. They can't know in advance when it's needed to log a few telegrams. But, maybe they've
invented a time machine, so I might be wrong :) "builderz" <builderz at vastnexus.com> skrev i meddelandet news:3F1D9AF9.7D44D323 at vastnexus.com... > That's a feature of the AW unisever, so AWI can log them or not log them > at will. > > Builderz > http://www.3dhost.net > [View Quote] OneSummer a Hacker?Jul 22, 2003, 6:34pm
As I said, they can't possibly know in advance when it's a good time to turn it on, so it's likely to be on all the time. And unless
they have a special version of the universe server then it will log all telegrams. http://www.activeworlds.com/help/aw34/uniserver_log.html "builderz" <builderz at vastnexus.com> skrev i meddelandet news:3F1D9C59.FB635384 at vastnexus.com... > What I meant is that at anytime they have the option to either turn > telegram logging on or off.

I wonder why logging would be needed now when all the new privacy features exists. And who exactly has access to it? For what
purposes is it used? I could still be wrong about them logging. But what Calpantera sure made me wonder.
