Okay, why the FUCK doesn't BB allow for windowing? Unless there's some sort of rule that says "Online RPG games cannot be minimized", there's no reason why BB shouldn't be able to minimize.

Gods forbid you leave your away message off, becuase if you get a new IM, you get logged off! And if you press Alt+Esc, you can also kiss your game goodbye. It does at least save your character info, but it DOES NOT save your place in the middle of a boring offline quest. >_<

BB lets you do lobby animations in game, which serves NO purpose, other than to be slightly amusing for photos. So why the fuck can't we get something that lets us minimize the fucking game? >_<

I know, it's my fault for accidently pressing Alt+Esc during the middle of Secret Delivery, but the game should be able to minimize without being exited out.

Just out of curiousity, have I ever been the cause of this happening to you?

If so... HAHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!

Try hitting CTRL ALT DEL to pull up Task Manager. From there, find the Blue Burst program, right-click it, and hit minimize. I don't know if this will work for you seeing as BB has a tendancy of crashing when you aren't giving it all your attention, but it's something to try.

Blue Burst doesn't allow you to go to other programs during play to make it more difficult to hack the game. If you can access your start menu, then you can access a tool to modify the game; that's the logic behind it. There are a number of online games that do this.

ehh... someone dedicated to cheating can find away around that, but yes it does get rid of your average, run-of-the-mill cheater.

Ah, I see. That DOES make sense, I suppose. Really SUCKS for people who aren't trying to cheat. >_<

Rico, you've never messed me up, luckily. XP

Well, you know how ST usually does, Wazz. When they try to stop cheating, the legits and cheaters both get screwed. http://www.pso-world.com/psoworld/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/icon_wacko.gif
