== beginners & vacation mode ==

<pre>
(vini) hello
(vini) anyone there?
(jackle) sup
(vini) hey, i understand i cant go into vac mode whilst i have a fleet out
(jackle) yup
(vini) thing is I didnt realise this until i sent my ships out earlier.
(vini) so im here to ask very nicely if you can bend the rules slightly?
(jackle) we cant
(jackle) its hard coded
(jackle) can you not recall before you have to go?
(vini) my fleet is on its way now but it doesnt get back b4 i have 2 go
(jackle) in that case you'll have to do your best to log in while away and do it from there
(vini) if i can get some1 in my gal 2 log in as me and put me on vac mode when my ships arrive, would u allow that?
(Cin[Away]) no
(Cin[Away]) you aren't allowed to give your pass to anyone
(jackle) noone cal log into your account, if they do the Multihunter system will close both planets
(Cin[Away]) it be account sharing...you'd probably get closed both of you
(vini) ok then guys thankyou for ur help:)
(vini) bye bye
* (vini) (Java@client-82-14-89-144.manc.adsl.virgin.net) has left #support
(cheerios) that's got to be the worst customer support there is. you probably dont mind me nothing this on a GD thread.
(Cin[Away]) (cheerios)..what you expect us todo...break the rules or let him break the rules and then have a MH break'em again by overlooking it?
(jackle) if you go putting people into vac mode while they're away for them people will be sending out attacks as they leave, all claiming they forgot
(cheerios) you have multihunters to close planets. surely the same people can put people into vacmode too, if they cant do it themselves.
(cheerios) you know as well as i do his planet is toast by the time he gets back.
(Cin[Away]) (cheerios)...don't you see the problem wit that?
(Cin[Away]) you do it once you got todo it everytime...there would a storm of ppl demanding the same thing
(cheerios) a storm of people trying to get into vacation mode?
(jackle) despite the merit of this case, theres a shed load of people willing to take advantage
(Cin[Away]) allways pppl that wanna take advantage of things like this (cheerios)
(cheerios) yeah. shame there isnt always pppl to go the extra mile for beginners in this game.
(jackle) (cheerios) i've looked after new people since i started
(jackle) between recruiting new lpayer and training the rest
(cheerios) with so many new people whats 1 (vini) in the crowd, right.
(jackle) no
(jackle) i was merely pointing out that your coment was misguided
(cheerios) yes, find flaws in my coments when leaving poor vini in the cold. that'll help him a lot.
(jackle) we need ot keep this room clear, if you want to keep discussing this pm me
