Really.. i dont really care how long they come out.. heck i dont even care if they come out with another (tho it is nice), I'm happy enough on my bpl 11 which i've already advanced a lot from a stock circle. And since i've do some any edits and patches etc.. I prolly wouldnt be able to upgrade from a patch file easily. Readlly.. if bpl 12 (or the 3.0 realase) comes out..I prolly wont upgrade uless theres some must-have feature i really want in it, because it would be too much of a hassle -- Just my two cents, not really meant as a flame or any sorts... :) -- Travis Turner Radison, Admin Implementor of Daedric Mud -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- ~~~ Travis Turner O O -- Smile, theres gotta turnert@galstar.com . be someone out there that http://www.galstar.com/~turnert \_/ likes ya :) ftp://ftp.galstar.com/users/turnert -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- +-----------------------------------------------------------+ | Ensure that you have read the CircleMUD Mailing List FAQ: | | http://cspo.queensu.ca/~fletcher/Circle/list_faq.html | +-----------------------------------------------------------+
