Tips and Ticks - Disc-Jockeys - http://maxpages.com/breaker/Tips_and

Sup peeps.. well this is the AOL Tricks section of my page.. sorry if I dont have that much tricks in here yet.. The following tricks are supposed to be for educational use only, and by no means used against other members unless illegally done..

BASIC IM TRICKS
-To have your font going up and down, type <.sub> After the letter you
want up don't forget to put <./sub> or the following letters will stay up.
-To cross out IM's, make the tag <.s> before your text. Used to work for
AOL, but now only works for AIM.
-To make letters spell out slowly, put <./html> in front of every letter.
-To make a temperary freeze on AOL add the <.H3> code as many times
as you can fit them into the IM box. If you
constantly do it, it'll toggle their system it 'punt' them. -To turn off IM's,
type TO: $IM_off if this happens to you.
-To make a person say something they didn't say, copy their name into your box and push enter about 6 times and write a message after it. It'll appear as if 'they' said it..

ADVANCED IM TRICKS
-To make letters hop up and down really fast, (two O's are a great example to do), type <.sub>OO<./html><./sub>OO, and
fill the entire IM box up, and your letters will hop.. *FIXED* To make them intensely hop (much better then the first hop, but much slower) type this <.sub>OO<./html><./sub><.sup>OO<./html><./sup> and fill the entire IM box
-This is the only page I've seen with this nifty, yet annoying trick.. Repeat the appove code, yet add <.h3> before and after the OO's. You could use any letters or make a word (no need for O's here), the letters won't "hop". Fill the entire box up and the receiver will get freezed as the word you typed in will change format and repeat in a downward spiral depending if you use <.h1>, <.h2>, <.h3>, Each h code will do a different downward effect..
-To make a person say something they didn't say, copy their name into your box and push enter about 6 times and write a
message after it. It'll appear as if 'they' said it..
-To add a hyperlink just drag the link from you Favorite Place to the IM Box. To make up the name to click on type the code : <.a href="address of the page"> ENTER THE NAME OF THE HYPERLINK TITLE AFTER CODE.
-To read the address of a hyperlink, highlight the hyperlink and copy it (Ctrl-C), bring up AOL's writing box (Ctrl-N) and Paste it (Ctrl-V), then double click on the hyperlink.
-Self Destruction. This is the only page I've found with this trick. I've never fully tested this, but try it if you want. Fill the entire Buddy Invitation with all CAPS and leave no spaces in all three lines. Push Send and (1 out of 10 times), you'll be signed off in 1 second with a very strange sign off message. I don't know if you type the receivers name in and if it kicks you off, it'll kick them off too.
-To error punt, write <.html><.font =99999><./html>Fill up as many 9's as possible.

EMAIL TRICKS
-To make a "rainbow email" type as many of the background codes into your body text as you want. TAKE THE PERIODS
AWAY!!! I.E.
EACH DENOTE A COLOR:
<.HTML><.PRE><.BODY BGCOLOR="#ffffff"><./PRE><./HTML> <.HTML><.PRE><.BODY BGCOLOR="#c0c0c0"><./PRE><./HTML> <.HTML><.PRE><.BODY BGCOLOR="#808080"><./PRE><./HTML>
<.HTML><.PRE><.BODY BGCOLOR="#000000"><./PRE><./HTML> <.HTML><.PRE><.BODY BGCOLOR="#000040"><./PRE><./HTML> <.HTML><.PRE><.BODY BGCOLOR="#0000ff"><./PRE><./HTML>
-To make a blind carbon copy, put ('s after the name you don't wanna have seen. i.e. (BillyBob72)
-To make a complete email freeze, use either the good ole <.h3> (which doesn't work as good anymore thanx to TOS or user
the deadlier <.br> tag used in the South Park Punter mail freeze.
-To email bomb, go to preferences, click the mail icon and take the check of the first 2 opitions. Then compose mail and after you send it, keep on hitting spacebar.

CHAT ROOM TRICKS
-Rolling dice. Type the line: //roll : into your line and push enter.
-More characters. (use the right side of your keyboard) Push Alt0 and a three digit number and a strange character should come up. i.e. Alt 0169 ©, Alt 0158²
-Blank space. Push space bar a few times and hit Alt 0160
-Type // and push enter. A message appear (only seen by you), can not use //. To actually use // alone, use the space trick by pressing space bar about 2 or 3 times and use the ALT 0160 trick and type // and the eror message won't come up.
-To bust into a private room, go to keyword and type aol://2719:2-2- and the private room you want to enter.
-To change the name of the OnlineHost on your AOL, download a hex editor (you can find one at Keyword: Software Search)
In the hex editor, open aolchat.aol, found in AOL's Tool directory. Search through the document and look for OnlineHost. It should be listed twice. Change it to what ever you want. Not all names work, and AOL will load up with an error, so just refix
-To send a blank im type <'a href'>.
-If you want to type a blank line in a chat room all you have to do is hit space then hold alt and on the keypad next to you type 0160 then hit enter.
-To get a cool message type =Q and then
hit enter.
-Members Room Bust: Go to a room, click List Chats, click Member Rooms, click Find Room by Name, type the room name, click find, highlight the room, hold enter
-KiLL Wait.Get rid of the hourglass! Just click on Help 3 times (quickley) then click on about AOL then click it

-Remmber not to put a . in front of the code.. for example if my code says <.h3> <~~ dont put that dot in front.. same as to other codes.. it will not work if you put it in.. >
