That is because you posted in the wrong forum (but no worries, I moved the thread to the correct one).

As for the problem at hand, after Dream Seeker stopped responding, you should receive the option to send an error report. Could you manually note the error details (there should be a link to see them) and post them here?
What happens if Dream Seeker is being closed through DM source code?

It isn't that type of end program here this is what it says

End Program - Pokemon Bloodstone

This program is not responding

To return to windows and check the status of the program, click cancel.

If you choose to end the program immediately, you will lose any unsaved data. To end the program now, click End Now.

What is DM source code?

Could you please connect to Chatters ( byond://216.66.76.220:6030 ), remove the > from the input line and then type .quit
What happens if you now hit enter?

When i hit enter the Chatter program closes.
In response to Zabuza177
It seems that I can't connect to Naruto GOA (right now), so I can't try if the game supports the default command line commands, but you could try the same (.quit) with one of the games that crashes for you upon closing?
And what happens if you try to log in to chatters and close it the 'normal way'?

It closes fine.

Yes the .quit works perfectly.
In response to Zabuza177
Great, so at least you have a temporary workaround there ;)

Now to more diagnostic questions.

In your Pager, under file -> Preferences -> Games, is 'Use graphics hardware for displaying maps' checked or unchecked?

Well i tried the (.quit) on one of the other games and it still stop responding but good news is it was easier to close this time then before when i didn't use (.quit) just used the X.

Unchecked because i don't know if you remember but in one of my older posts i said my screen shots we're coming out bad and you said to UN-check it and try taking a screen shot and that did fix it.

Could you tell me what game it was that showed this behaviour?

And would these steps make a difference?

I just tried Naruto GOA, where and how did you use .quit?

Could you update BYON D to 464.1066?
In response to Schnitzelnagler
OK this is what i did:

F1>Options and Messages>Client>Command then i entered (.quit)

Ok i will update byond

Also i updated and tried the (.quit) again and it still stops responding.
In response to Zabuza177
Could you give me one example game where you can gracefully close with .quit?
In response to Schnitzelnagler
When i first tested.

I logged on to the game and before i did anything like even walk, talk i used the .quit but when i started playing and then tried closing like an hour or so after i logged on using .quit that's when it gets difficult.
In response to Zabuza177
Ah, ok, so this *is* consistent for every game, but it depends on the time you've spent on it?
In response to Schnitzelnagler
Correct.
In response to Zabuza177
Could you please monitor CPU and RAM allocation on a test game during that time interval and report the results here?
