There is not really one better.
You can do things differently. Don't know what you plan to do exactly, but you can use a var which contains the "status" of the player.
PHP Code:
enum UserStatus
{
UserNormal,
UserRetarded,
UserIdiot
};
UserStatusDescription[ UserStatus ][] =
{
"You are normal !!!",
"You are retarded !!!",
"You are an idiot !!!"
};
new UserStatus:Status[ 33 ];
public check( id )
{
new UserStatus:currentStatus = Status[ id ];
if( currentStatus != UserNormal )
{
client_print( id, print_chat, UserStatusDescription[ currentStatus ] )
}
}
You get the idea.
