: : How much do you reckon that will destroy a persons computer? I might try it, but I guess it won't be any use it annihilates everybodys CPU's...

: Nah, don't worry about it. As long as there's a wait command, even wait(1), you really don't have to worry about one script hogging the CPU. Without a wait of course, a loop will totally lock the computer.

I'd like to respecfully disagree

If you have a loop that is wait(1); and it runs a while, you will notice things will get rather jumpy and so on.

And no-wait loops rock. You have to be careful not to make them infinite, but if you have it create 50 sprites at the same time or something, it pauses for a bit, but then they all appear on the screen at the same time.
