Kaph, I live in GMT and as Organised as I am, my parents are damed loving strict. I have to sleep at 10PM which is annoying. But I guess we can always roleplay on week-ends.

Btw, Lug. /private **** doesn't work

It still defeats the whole purpose of the system.

When I suggested this to Knaz, I explained it could be how it was done in the first Bluzone. The password is in the OP, and after reading through it you would come across it. It wasn't advertised that the server had a set password. You would find this out one of two ways.

1. Browsing the server list and seeing there is a password.
2. Reading the OP and noticing there is a password for the server.

What you guys are doing completely contradicts this whole thing. Whenever you open a private session, you publicly announce the password. Sure, you're keeping out the people that don't look at the forums - but you're still letting in the people who just lurk. They see the password in the most recent post, join with no understanding of the server, and cause trouble in your "little paradise." When you can only find the password in the OP, less people are going to come across it and be a nuisance. At least they will have possibly read the OP.

And I'm throwing in this part because I know some bastard is going to say "Durr, people can still skim the OP for the password." Well good observation skippy, but at least this increases the chance of people reading the OP - and decreases the amount of people who just click on the topic and see that the password is right there on the last page.

The private-public session system isn't supposed to completely purge out people who didn't read the OP or have no understanding of the server, it just makes things easier.
