"block" button on dialogs

[Rhys Goode]

What is up with the "block" button on all the dialog boxes?  It suddenly appeared, and I know for sure I did not put it in any of my scripts.  It is very, very annoying, I keep muting my own toys by accident. 

I can't figure out what is good for either.  I've never had an issue with unwanted dialog boxes in my 6 years of SL.  Now If LL were to give me an easy way to mute something really annoying, like gestures  or the spam from someone else's scripted attachment, I would be happy.  But why would I want to mute the dialogs on my own devices???????

Block and Ignore are the default actions in a menu. If you don't wish to block a dialogue with a task, do not click the Block button.

I agree, it's silly having it enabled by default -- much too easy to push by accident and make more work in fixing it.

You can disable the Block button in preferences ( you just have to find it ).

Found it!

It "block" may be the default action this week, but I've been scripting things for years and never seen it before.  

Thanks for showing me how to turn it off, Solaria!

I did think of a useful purpose for the block button.  Those stores or clubs frequently visited that bomb you with notecard offers, group joiners....that landing spam.   The block might be useful for that.
