I joined this list quite awhile ago and I never posted.. which
probably isn't all too uncommon. I've used palace since 98, and I
kept up with everything about it until a few months ago (I haven't
really been on since).

Anyways, that's neither here nor there, I was just surprised to see
that the egroup is still active. When CC went under I thought the
end of palace was approaching. Sure, palace owners and members all
pitched in to their best, but I knew no way that palace would get
the exposure or expierence the success it had under CC. The Palace
was featured in PC Magazine in 96, was mentioned in KoRn's Follow
the Leader, had guest appearences by Britney Spears, Avril Lavigne,
and others I'm sure. That was all before or during CC's reign over
The Palace, since then, nothing major (or even medium) has happened
in The Palace Community. Iptscrae has been explored to no end by
hundreds of knowledgable users, I find it hard to believe that there
can be much more to discovery with such a limited language. And
there can't be too many more variations of avatars to be made with
the alloted 132x132 pixels and 256 colors.

After all that introduction, my question is this: Why do you still
use The Palace?

Personally, my reason for not going has been simple. I never had any
loyalty to any specific palace, although I did attend the same
palace for my entire palace life. I went to palaces for the people,
not the scenery. After the years people lost interest in the palace
life, and as they left there was no reason to stay.

These online worlds have always fascinated. The online friends,
enemies, politics, and even "wars". Some might say the fact that
everything in reality can be mimicked through text and some props is
nothing short of magical.

This post is not concerning bots, scripts, or plugins, but about the
community that creates and shares them. I have no idea if anyone
would want to exchange palace stories, but it's worth a shot.

Happy palacing,
Jeff

PS. I think my signature is going to show up on this. I've been
meaning to take it off because some forums complain about it. If it
doesn't show up then great, I don't have to mess with the yahoo
options :) But if it does attach on here then give it a try, it
actually does make money and I wouldn't mind a good referral :)
Thanks.
