you should see benefits increasing delay to 3-5 seconds. Don't expect bad hosts to go away. They will just keep talking without waiting the 3 seconds silence. So you will have to block them and/or add some high score to the pb. But there still is no code available to do that and, until we don't have some form of multithreading, it would slow assp too much. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Take Surveys.
