G"day all,

Can any bot be used to see if a regular set of contacts are online or not ?.
I'm using Xelagot and it can see what worlds are online and how many people
are in it but not contacts.

G'day all,

I have to agree with the other cit's in the beta newsgroup etc. If you click
on "Hide me I want to be alone" setting you should be invisible to all, not
have a big fat question mark next to your name.

Your avatar should also not be seen by anyone in the world your in, your
chat text, whispers or telegrams, your boss, your wife, your husband, your
"other wife", your mother in law, your next door neighbour, your next door
neighbour's husband, if you choose this option.

Any or all of the above options would be a handy thing.

Isn't it rude implying that you don't want someone to know when you are
online or offline ?

If the AW browser is going to adopt the features of other chat programs like
ICQ, Yahoo, MSM etc, then it should adopt the standardised feature where you
can appear as though you are not even connected to the net.

It should be each citizens right to use AW in privacy if that's what they
want to do. To show any kind of mark next to your name, when you are seeking
solitude, is an open invitation for people to telegram you, to try and join
you, or otherwise break your intentionally private status.

It's like having a car parked in your driveway, people automatically suspect
your home, when you hear a knock at your door what are you supposed to do ?,
hide in the cupboard till they go away ?

Creating suspicion and mistrust through ambiguous icons, is not in the
community spirit of AW, this feature should be removed before it causes more
problems than it solves.

Hide means to "not show". If the feature is designed to hide your online
status then it should hide you in the same way as not being in AW at all,
not create suspicion by putting an icon there that says to other users

"Maybe I'm online, maybe I'm not, either way I dont want you knowing".

I don't know about your relationships with people in AW Zeo, but they must
be less sensitive to being ignored or put to one side, than mine. Also if
your a PK or someone that is jumped on as soon as you enter AW when you use
any known account, you should be able to enter AW to do what you want in
privacy. Before I get misinterpreted here, I don't mean PK accounts. Private
accounts should have the option of being just that, private.

AWCom has an opportunity here, to introduce a worthwhile feature, so long as
it's done properly at the start then it wont get messy later on.

I think in all fairness it's not within the community spirit of AW to
create ambiguous online status notification icons.

G'day all,

Pressing 5 on the keypad when you turn left or right wont stop you turning
when your in 3rd person. This used to work in AW3 but now not in AW3.1

G'day all,

I meant to send my original message to the Beta newsgroup but it would send
because I'm not in the beta test group, sorry about that all ; )

Anyway, I meant to say that it's when you pivot in third person that
pressing 5 doesn't work.

G'day,

You can DL the old splash screen from :

http://soulshadow.freeservers.com/splash.jpg

You'll probably need to convert it to a .bmp file. I can't get Freeservers
to let me DL a .bmp or .zip.

I haven't been in AW for months, let me tell you it's weird when you used it
every day of your life for 6 years ;)

All these weird memories, ghosts, it's all too overwhelming !

Donuts are still holy though ;) hehehehe
