    Re: Re: avat-in and out

    What exactly are the avat-in and out doing exactly? Updating
    avatars between all the bbs? It seems to take my vm to a crawl
    when it runs. Is there any reason to run this 24 times a day or
    can this be set to run at midnight?

    Gamgee> I can see no reason to run it 24 times a day, even if it
    doesn't load down a system. Mine runs once a day.

    it just depends on how up-to-date you want them to be on your
    system...

    Yeah... I think once per day is plenty.

    kinda like QWKnet polling... in the synchronet areas that are
    gated between FTN and QWKnets, i regularly get new posts on the
    FTN side sooner than from the QWKnetworking side... this because
    FTN is running ASAP and passing the mail on as soon as it is
    ready whereas QWKnetworking is more like end users pulling the
    mail from a bbs for offline use... sure, the QWKnet polling can
    be increased for more lively traffic flow but that means more,
    possibly empty, polling...

    Yep, I see that too. I have my QWK polling at 12/day which seems
    to be fine.



    ... Gone crazy, be back later, please leave message.
