if you buy what they are saying about hashes being O(1) (which i don't). Errm, why? Keep in mind that the assumption is that the hash function already is O(1) and that it's only the average case that is O(1). The worst case, of course, is that all elements get the same hash. I knew i shouldn't have...

THe problem with the instant chats that I see is the penalty for silencing them. The performance penalty, that is. :) The server has to compare your large list of instant chats you want to ignore to every single line of chat that goes through the system. well my idea was to do it clientside. and yo...

afaik, there is no way for the client to know if a line is an instant chat or not (though it may be possible to implement some heuristic instant-chat detector :) ). but not all instants are bad, i would want to receive "defense down" messages for instance. and i placed no limit on the numb...

silencing individual lines

I'd say yes. Particularly in sumo, some tend to talk too much without saying anything. Like people who say LOL! everytime they die. Although I usually say something about that... This thought just came to mind. Instead of silencing a player completely, you could just ignore his boring instant chats...

Not me. It would make matters worse in every respect. It would make it harder to convince people with network problems that they have, in fact, not been banned. Then we'd have the complaints of the people who really got banned here (unless the ban is automatically extended to the forum), plus angry...

yea I've got one of those, but I read somewhere (at least I think) that in the configs somewhere you can alter the default font code well you can always hack the source to automagically prepend your color code to every chat but i see no point in doing that when binding s to an instant chat will hav...

you make an instant chat:
"0x<your_hex_code> \"
then press that instant key and see what happens.
but remember:
Only idiots write in color all the time.

google says that AC_CONFIG_HEADER is obsolete and replaced by the "S" version. but i was pointing out that you invoke AC_WHATEVER(aa_config.h) with the "aa_" prefix so when you run autoheader it creates aa_config.h.in while bootstrap.sh tries to remove config.h.in w/out the "...
