    I was just wonderng how to ask a person a question and depending on the yes ãor no answer they would set or unset a user flag (the A-Z thing)ããI figure it would be good for the people that say dont like to see games ãthat the main theme is drugs or sex... i was thinking of a use for them one ãnight and that was all i could come up with, login screens and stuff could ãall sort of be customized for each user...ããi figured i'd share my idea too see what you all think.ããã---ã þ Synchronet þ Virtual Zone - Canadaã
