And I would BEAT ON THE CODE.

(And I would eat an apple.)

So sstaten tells me that one of his characters on NE2 is receiving the mail of one of the other staffers.

Whoops.

Also, he has another character who isn't receiving mail at all, because she doesn't have a functional mailbox.

Also whoops.

I have buried myself deeply in code. In complicated code. That someone else wrote. I have found the problem. I have fixed the flags on the objects containing the code. I have, by hand, redirected Ashland's mail to Ashland. I have created mailboxes for the three characters I know of who don't have them, including the one who was reading Ashland's mail. (I may have accidentally deleted pointers as well, but . . . we'll burn that bridge when we come to it.) I have updated the +fixmail command to take into account the second object that may need to be un-HALTed to make some of these commands work. I have updated the +nukedbref command to take into account code-related stuff for idle-dested players and their mailboxes. I have posted to the public board to let the players know what's going on and the staff board about the fixes.

I am coder, hear me roar!

Raaaaaaaaaaaaaaah.

I am spammed stupid, hear me gibber. . . .

*CHEERS*

I really want to know who the person was who srote that code, because it's so messed up.

Yay! Go Anna :)

I am slightly scared that all of that made sense. Given that I am really *not* a MUSH coder. (Ok, reading the MUSH code manual while taking CS 111 probably didn't hurt, but still.)

Possibly because I left out the technical bits? ;)

So long as one doesn't expect the hardcode to parse the expressions formed thereby. ;)
