History of Teleport:
The teleport was invented by the great
tinkerer avatar Foontrafian Subtrax. It
took many years to perfect the
technique, and many a test animal was
lost to the void. It is still rumored
to this day that, when the conditions
are JUST RIGHT when teleporting, an
avatar may end up with animal parts in
place of his normal limbs and/or head.
Rest assured that this is ONLY a rumor.
Reguardless of the rumored risks, the
teleport has become the single most
valued addition to the universe,
opening whole vista's of places to
explore. THANK YOU Foontrafian!
How a Port address is chosen:
Most often, all teleport booths are
registered in the Teleport-Book,
published in every major city. There
are some standards loosely adhered to
when generating a port address:
Where Style
------------ ---------------
Streets City-Streetname
Intersection City-Streetname Cross
Downtown City-'Downtown'/'Plaza'
Forests Nickname
Islands Ilename
Deserts Why would you care?!
'City-' is the three letter City Prefix
If omitted, local city is assumed.
People have been known to spend large
amounts of money to buy personal
booths and NOT register them. These
booths usually have customized
addresses that have personal meaning
to the owner (so the address is not
forgotten)
