Title: DOH! Anyone else done this??!
Post by: Replicant on August 11, 2000, 10:11:00 AM

Hi

There I was just finished reading the messages on the BBS and now time for Aces High.  I launch the program and await to enter the arena.  The map comes up in a jumble of differently owned fields but still no one talking in the buffer.  I go away to get a drink and return.... still no one talking in the buffer.  Hmm... lousy connect I guess... then I realise that I had selected 'Offline' instead of 'Online'...  Hmm!   (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/smile.gif)  I know I have been feeling pretty ill lately but not that bad!!   (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/wink.gif)

Please tell me I'm not the first to do this?!   (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/smile.gif)

The thing you fail to realize is that nobody saw you do it.  You are the first to do it, then tell everyone you did it (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/wink.gif)

The more fun it would be if you take up and was shot down offline  (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/smile.gif)

Congratulations on "fessing up"!

We all actually watched this happen and were howling online about this but were too polite to mention it UNTIL you did.   (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/biggrin.gif) Of course after this NO ONE will ever fall victim to this situation again. You blazed a path and none will follow!    (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/smile.gif)

I think I've done one worse, I hit "online" once when I just wanted to fly around offline, and since I wasn't connected to my isp at the time it caused a system lock and I had to reset my computer.  (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/biggrin.gif)

Although not an actual error. (a cool bug)

I was looking at a film in AH.
Without letting it end, I hit "quit".
I then entered a H2H host.
Surprise !
Although I was online/H2H.. the film started running again.
WHILE I was online/H2H !
I could send messages in the radio buffer and receive responses from other H2H users and....
All the while I could see the Film playback and radio text.
