it's just missing the Dollz and DBZ characters blasting scripted macros everywhere to ruin the experience of others through audiovisual spam.
man I loved The Palace. I wrote a ton of IPTSCRAE as a youth for it -- both server side and client side.
The Palace quickly taught one why it was a bad idea to allow clients to draw programmatically. Many a rooms ruined by script kiddies that got taught how to ruin every bodies day with an array of seizure inducing redraws.
That said : Man, we're moving backwards in a lot of ways on software. The Palace didn't have rich media embedding and webcams, sure -- but the server software was free for anyone to run , with many large broadcasting groups hosting many hundreds of people at once.
I understand the need for a marketing plan and idea -- but it feels weird when a brand new pay offering can handle less traffic for more money than a solution from the 90s.
Haha, Indeed. I loved scripting! Pretending to be the server "admin" messaging the room from a chat-bubble in the top left was the best thing ever. Well, yeah that and laser shows.
