You have to execute YaYp.exe not by double clicking on the icon, but from a CMD window (you have to google how to do this) and give the command like this:
cmd /k perl YaYp.exe

This way the window will stay open and you can see the error, once you know the error, paste it here and we might be able to help you.

Good luck,

To YaYp users: Auto reject players with IDs like this Pryme%20Tyme%204922, use command "who" and if you see any ID with this symbol %20 put it in autoreject list. I have checked our winboard doesnt recognize names like that and froze the program and we not make any moves for white or black !

I could confirm this today again, this other ID with %20 froze my prog.

Plus Mate can we have this option available again to check or uncheck?

Hello Mate !!! Where is our dear Dene? :-(

Ok, Mate this week I am facing something different. When I type ^YaYp I cant see in my ICS all YaYp users...

Is this problem only by my side? Other players please reply.

Hello X,

YaYp originally did not do this. But thanks to an imbecile that kept flooding the tables and the lobby, I put a 2 sec delay. It somebody says something within the next two seconds after the last shout or kib, YaYp will ignore it.

I am sorry about this, but it was done this way for our own protection.

Regards,

Oh, I understand. Good idea for our own protection. Now YaYp users are aware of this feature. :ok

Regards,
I've seen a particular person in POGO site abuse the ^YaYp shout command, on a continuous basis, just to make the YaYp users shout "Using YaYp version........" every few seconds. This individual is obsessed with making YaYp users appear to "intentionally" flood the lobby, by our free will, with YaYp ICS emulators.

Is it possible to implement a 5-minute intervals of lobby shout or similar schemes to ignore this guy's abuse of the YaYp lobby shout command? It's sad to have to deal with ignorant people in POGO on daily basis like this guy and the likes.

Thanks.

If you are asking if its possible to make YaYp ignore the command to make it lobby shout for 5 minutes after it last shouted, so YaYp wont shout/respond to that command for a 5 minute period once it has shouted, then yes that is possible and very easy to implement in any future versions.

Cheers

It's good to hear from you Dene. Personally, I'd assumed you were busy or taking a break. Good to know you're okay though. I returned back to POGO this year.

Apropos the YaYp lobby shout intervals, this is good news to know the suggested feature can be implemented. Stay safe, health-wise & work-wise etc. Thanks Dene & Matematiko.

Best.
