Blocking chat from neighbors, can it be done??

[Gypsiwynd Delicioso]

Hi everyone,

My partner & I recently bought land and it sits between two other parcels that are owned by others and their family members. They are nice people, but they are loud on mic/ voice and I really do not enjoy listening to them while I'm trying to watch a movie, relax or work on my home. Is there away to shut them out without losing my own abilty to have sounds or chats with my partner on Our parcel?

Hello Gypsiwynd,

ask them to goto "About Land", Media tab and select "Restrict Voice to this parcel" at the bottom of the page. For details and a graphical view of this dialog, please see the wiki here: http://wiki.secondlife.com/wiki/About_Land

Hope this helps, Cobra

Hi! If for any reason BlckCobras suggestion does not work for your neighbors, open the list of Active Speakers from the bottom right of your interface. There you can mute voice (and only voice) for individuals. Also check this tutorial vid how to find and mute sound sources around you http://vodpod.com/watch/1442460-using-beacons-to-find-special-objects

Or if they refuse to do both do something that will force them to turn on restrict.       Play music over your mic on voice chat all day.

Make sure every belch and noxious fart you release goes there too.   However if my advice violates ToS so don't listen to me. 

 

But if not have fun, hehe.

Thank you all for the helpful tips. I will try to find a nice way to tell them that sometimes their chatter .. is bleeding over the airways, when it should remain private. We are becoming friends and I do not want to alienate them just reduce the conversations that should remain between them and not broadcast to the whole sim.
