'Twas the night before 27-Sep-98, and all through the net,
 not a creature was stirring, except for Myrla, who whispered ominously:

Uhm, I tried it and saw you disconnect a while later. (Darn! Missed again!)
Maybe I had to turn it on on Furry too, but that's so long ago I can't
remember. Probably. There's a lot of things that need turning on or off
that they don't tell you about... (And when a friend of mine got an alt I
had to tell him all the things over again...)

I have now, and it is.

You mean the part about restricting guests? An automatic (?) bell sounds
like a better idea (assuming those who don't want to be bothered can shut
it off). Then again putting the guests on the wf and turning it on works
too and doesn't require installing anything new...
