aye.... the code will emit a ultrasonic wave from your PC speakers to determine the mass of the person sitting in front of the pc....take me for example --- a blaring siren will go off in zings house if the code records 2 identical "images" of rather fat people of the same weight comming from my network...

hmmm... be sure to sit at least 10 feet away from your pc from now on :wink:

and to refocus on the topic of people going AFK; which has no relavance to people who dual log --- or people who emit more than one signal from a home router/network........we all know this

Not so much a concern at low levels, but when I level at higher levels it takes me some time to look through everything and decide. Is there some way the DMs can see a people is leveling even if not answering tells?

usually when i play i have my text box extended to double its size, so i can see more than 1 or 2 messages....and hypothetically if you were leveling and recieved a PM asking if you are there--you can simply exit the leveling screen and acknowlege them.....The enlarged text box allows a few extra seconds in case the PM is followed by a server shout/party chat, etc....

Again, this issue involves nothing more than common sense -- if u kno u will be gone for more than 1-2 minutes, simply save and log off -- and if the server as at Cap; then use my method i mentioned in a previous post on this thread as to how to get back on the server in a short ammount of time.....A little bit of courtesy can go a long way...and from what i have seen we are all generally friendly people who play here :wink:

when leveling the screen covers up most of the text box buy you should still be able to see the portraits of the people speaking. If a portrait changes, someone may be trying to talk to you :wink:
