I was referring to the one time I can think of that I'd have used scan all if I knew it existed. In that circumstance I could've done something in half the time.

What I was 'knocking' is the idea of adding the direction to another line when the direction you're scanning is already in the line right before that. I also don't see the point to scanning any less than your level allows, since if you only scan one direction at a time there isn't really spam. (unless of course you're one of those people who walks around all the time without room descriptions)

Also, even if I were to use scan all to do what I was up to less than a week ago, what spam there might have been was unimportant, I'd have kept looking for the one mob I was watching for until I found it.

If I wasn't clear enough before, I hope I am now.
