Urm...you didn't define M, try O.noget, and try not using :, use .

In response to N1ghtW1ng
When I changed the M to an O it still doesnt work, and when I change the : on the bottom to a . it makes an error to it, I think the bottom one works.The onley error I have is the O.NoGet == 1 part, Says this when I do it,...

Build.dm:18:error:O.NoGet:undefined var

As I'm sure you've seen by now, the M should be an O. However, because of the lack of type casting, that still won't work. In DM, you must be as specific as possible about your variables. Also, don't use the : operator.

Furthermore, instead of if(myVar==1) and if(myVar==0) checks, use if(myVar) and if(!myVar): it's much, much more robust.

Finally, instead of an if(O.NoGet) else chain, you can get by with if(!O.NoGet).

mob/verb/Get_Icon(obj/O as obj in view())
    set category = "Social"
    if(!O.NoGet)
        usr << ftp(O.icon)
