All good advice chaps, but honestly, there's something weird happening for Lori that's beyond user error. I was online at the same time as her earlier so we tried a few things out, and I'm no closer to understanding.
The client seems to be missing out random characters at the start of her messages. In the time we experimented earlier, I saw it drop a mixtures of slashes, w's and spaces when the messages were delivered at my end, even though the line looked fine before she sent it. It always seems to be happening within the first 3 characters, and doesn't happen consistently. Sometimes it'd work, sometimes it wouldn't. We tried copy and paste too, just to remove the possibility of typos... same result... sometimes worked, other times dropped characters. Aprone, is that even possible? Any idea why it might be happening? Scott On 5/8/12, john <[email protected]> wrote: > If the person is aprone, the game will say Aprone not found.
