I am creating a status feature similar to ******** in my server and the statuses will be presented in a dialogue but I want to limit the list of shown statuses to 7. This means the last status on the list will have to be erased to make way for a new status. How do I limit the list so that only 7 statuses can be shown at one time?

Everytime a new status is posted, move every other status variable to the next so

status 1 becomes 2 and so on.

This way you will only have 7

This wouldn't work, would it? Because:

Status1 = Status2;
then Status2 = Status3; BUT Status2 has already been changed from its original text to the text of Status1, so every status would be made the same as Status1.

Does ANYONE have an answer? :P

No, status 1 changes to status 2
But status 2 changes only to status 3 not 1

Do it the other way around and start at the bottom to avoid the problem Derexi mentions.

st7 = st6;
st6 = st5;
st5 = st4;
st4 = st3;
st3 = st2;
st2 = st1;
st1 = newstatus;
