Poser isn't creating the files. It's the OS doing it. The OS is stupidly trying to optimize communication between the client and the server. It is saving the answers the server is giving, hoping that it can re-play those answers and avoid doing any I/O. But that isn't appropriate here, and the OS is being told NOT to do that because this is not cachable/reusable information, by definition. The actual client and server do not create files to communicate with each other. They are using sockets - real-time messaging that has nothing whatsoever to do with disks or files.

There aren't supposed to be any files. Poser isn't asking for them - it is doing the opposite, saying do NOT make and keep copies of these messages.


Renderosity forum reply notifications are wonky. If I read a follow-up in a thread, but I don't myself reply, then notifications no longer happen AT ALL on that thread. So if I seem to be ignoring a question, that's why. (Updated September 23, 2019)
