On one of the old wiki mirrors I found this:
"after approx. 4000 repeated says, llSay silently fails. and any use of llSay there on after in that simulator will be blocked with no notification or warning.
Is this still true and is it true for messages spoken on negative channel numbers (hearable only by objects)? That would kill the whole project I'm working on, in which I need a HUD and a node to send update requests / data to each other every 5 seconds). And I also don't want to blockade the whole sim, naturally.

I can't answer your question.
Why would negative channels be any different from positive nonzero ones?

If I understood it correctly, only objects are able to talk on negative channels. Just one less possibility for players to interfere  |

I don't believe this is still true, I recently had an object do well over 100,000 llSay() calls as part of a test I was doing, and it appeared to me that they all worked. It would be a trivial task for you to test this yourself. |
