Recommended Posts

And the correct answer is:

 

"He may have been in a shower, so he couldn't hear the bell"

 

That's what my English teacher said. And when I read what Coyote said "He may had been having a...", he answer:

 

'oh well that's a little too much, isn't it?'.. thanks for your effort guys anyways :)

'oh well that's a little too much, isn't it?'

 

Failed answer is failed.

 

EDIT: Wait.. He may have been in a shower? Jesus, tell your teacher that he needs a few english lessons. Being in a shower means being in the shower. Having a shower means washing yourself (having a shower).

You don't even know the proper rules of the tenses, do you think that your answer now hurt me?

Fυck, you'll have to try harder kiddo.

Υes, sure.

I don't think the the main point is about having shower or being in the shower, I think we just need to express a sentence saying that a person was unable to hear the bell ringing.

The word "shower" can't be used with the verb "have", but with the verb "take".

If you say "I'm having a shower", that means that you're eating a piece of your tub. rofl.

WTF has to do the eating there?!

 

have - has - had

 

he had a showed

i'm having a shower

i'm gonna take a shower

The first sentence says:

"Dunno dude, I guess he was having a shower, so he prolly couldn't hear the bell"

The one that your teacher gave says:

"Dunno mate, I guess that he was in the shower so he prolly couldn't hear the bell"

 

In this part of UOE you have to rewrite the sentence, but leaving it with the same meaning.

Not change a part of it, just so that another can be the same.

I was right.

he may have been taking a shower...

"He may have been in a shower, so he couldn't hear the bell"

 

None of us was, according to what the teacher said.

The server includes a custom buffer, custom class master, custom weapons and armors, custom zones, custom teleporter, custom raid bosses, and much more. I’ll leave a link in the description for those who want to see how everything looks inside. The server is only open on weekends, and you can find more news via the Facebook link.”   https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=61578869175323
    • 1. You where subscriber 3 years ago. 2. There is no current L2jMobius 2.8 Seven Signs version. Subcriber or not. 3. You have your answer from multiple forums that more items is more delay.  
    • 1. Optimize Packet Serialization Look in ItemList.java or wherever the inventory packet is constructed. Instead of building the packet with inefficient string concatenation or repeated allocations, use a preallocated buffer and avoid creating new objects for each item. Mobius sources are Java-based, so profiling with something like VisualVM or YourKit can help see where most time is spent. 2. Avoid Sending the Full List Each Time Modify the server to send only changed items (diff packets) when the inventory window opens. Some newer forks implement this as “lazy loading” or paged inventory so the client only loads e.g. 100 items at a time. 3. Limit the Inventory Size Per Page Instead of showing all 500 slots at once, split the inventory into pages/tabs (100 slots each). When the user switches a tab, send only that page’s items. This requires some client-side editing, but it’s the most user-friendly long-term fix. 4. Database & Cache Optimizations Ensure your items table is indexed by owner_id to make the query for player items fast. Cache item templates and static data so they are not reloaded every time the inventory is shown. ⚠️ Things to Keep in Mind Increasing slots from 80 → 500 does not just change a number — it multiplies the workload for packet building and UI rendering. You can’t fully avoid some extra cost with 500 items, but you can keep it under a few milliseconds if you optimize how and when the data is sent.    
    • i think it's the auto sorting of the interface that sucks, check InventoryWnd script in interface.u, or completely disable the request item list packet when toggling the inventory window (also in InventoryWnd script or similar name)
