I was just wonderng how to ask a person a question and depending on the yes or no answer they would set or unset a user flag (the A-Z thing)
I figure it would be good for the people that say dont like to see games that the main theme is drugs or sex... i was thinking of a use for them one night and that was all i could come up with, login screens and stuff could all sort of be customized for each user...
I'm currently setting up a similar system to grant or revoke access to interBBS games, so users have to apply to interBBS games with a simple yes/no question, so I can check if they're properly registered (real names entered, etc..) before granting access to certain games.
So, if flag3 A is set, that means they're flagged as "applying" for extra access, and if flag3 R is set, that means they have to re-enter their real names, etc..
This kind of thing could also be used for a login event to prompt users to revise improperly entered information.
