Hrm, I got to thinking, there are certain people who have asked me for access to my realm so they could toy around a little, and some people I don't mind having access because they are friends, I am just trying to keep a majority of the people out for right now. I was thinking, it would be nice if there was a way I could say, okay, if the character name is "name they emailed me" and it is in the file, then allow them to enter the game, if not, send message "Access denied... Email admin@mudsite for access" then disconnect them. This doesn't seem hard to do where as I could just make a hack version of the "xnames" and go from there. I was just wondering if anyone see's a problem with using this method. Oh, and this idea wasn't to be used with wizlock, but rather in the place of it. I decided this might be a good thing to do where as I was tired of trying to find a time when the requesting player and myself were online at the same time and able to connect to the realm. I didn't want to leave the site unwizlocked where as it ould allow other people to enter hom I did not wish to be there. - Lord Kyu - +------------------------------------------------------------+ | Ensure that you have read the CircleMUD Mailing List FAQ: | | http://democracy.queensu.ca/~fletcher/Circle/list-faq.html | +------------------------------------------------------------+
