yeah, i've been dancing that dance, too :lol:  i didn't want to do it this
way but i have finally just set both systems to not be able to autocreate
areas... it won't be as easy for me to whip up an areafix disconnect
message for each of the areas since they'll now be thrown in my BADMESSAGES
area which means i'll have to actually look for them and manually write the
message instead of replying and editing the autoareacreate message... six
for one, half a dozen for another -=B-)
