dude i'm not criticizing him he even acknowledged that it's a bad approach i'm asking a serious question why is he doing it like this is the server he is using really that bad o_________o
as for the second part i'm asking another serious question is there really no way to do it and making sure he knows that there's a very good reason to make it continuous

also, pointing out the faults in a system shouldn't be regarded as offensive
and yes i realize that he's doing it for the community i'm not asking him to stop i'm asking him to please make it better if he has the power to do so

also acwl i ask you this: what attitude do you mean that i don't throw enough "how wonderful" into my questions or that i'm too critical of the system or whatever because i don't really think faulting a system for its incapabilities should be regarded as offensive or anything 9___________9

Monkey, i can see where you are coming from, however i despise your negative attitude towards (almost) everything. Sure, point out the faults in the system, but realize that it is only a temporary solution, and that jimj isn't doing it just for himself, but for the whole nifforum WoT community. [/lecture]

You're the one with the attitude.

For sure. i have to apologize for that, it was late and i was unusually grumpy. Sure i get grumpy, but that would have to be an all-time high of grumpieness..... is that even a word?

Anyways, yeah.......

Hey, jimj, I've just thought of something... what about a "paint mode" in which you select a character and then start painting continuosly by using the arrow keys or clicking with the mouse? It would be like FSDPC (a REALLY old text-mode screen design program), where you could press ESC and a character, like the ASCII char 219 (solid block), and then just move the cursor across the screen while painting a line.

Great, now WoT itself is down.

hmm...It could work...
*adds to ideas list*

also, I am looking for ideas for a name for the program as well. "YWoT Clone" as I've been calling it sounds terrible, and is unpronounceable without spelling it out.

Here's some names:

Lange Anna's Super-Awesome Multiplayer Notepad Thing
jimj316's Writing Pad of Doom
The ASCII Showcase, courtesy of jimj316
Sprunkeldunkel Text-Thing

No, I'm not serious.

yttrium is pronounceable and so is ywot

MASSIVE CHANGE IN STUFF: Jamie just released a MMF2 server extention, so I can now program the server-side code! However, this effectively doubles my workload, so:
Time to complete:Now ~4 weeks
Probability of finishing: +5% on whatever it was (can't remember)

AWSMOE! I can't wait for this!

ohhhh man... this is going slowly.
I'd say I'm suffering from artist's block, but that wouldn't make sense.
programmer's block then.

tell me to shut up and finish this.
c'mon guys. pep talk tiem.

Go jimj, GO! The city needs you!

shut up and finish this.

If you finish this, I'll make you some popcorn! With butter!
