Fighting against griefers

[Christin73]

Greifers are not dumb. They tend to know how to get away from anti griefing weapons. Perticurly simply sitting on the ground. I am wondering if there is anything that works against griefers that sit to avoid weapons used agianst them?

Freeze, Eject, Ban. It works even against someone sitting.

Don't play a griefer's game by using weapons against them.  They like that and will contiue to annoy you.  Besides, they can and will AR you for using weapons against them without their consent.

TP to a different location. Success guaranteed.

I tried that and they ended up following me and doing the same thing.

You can not follow someone when they TP away.

There's this new thing that would completely resolve your dilemma.  It's called Stop Trying to Use Weapons on Them.

Works every time.

Rubbish, they would only know where you went if:-

a) You told them

b) You had a scripted item being worn that reported your location to them

If you don't know if b) is true, remove all attachments and TP

If by any rare and unknown chance they happened to have a modified viewer that happened to be able to get access to a TP request by another avatar and sniff that to determine where you went, then logout and re-login specifying a new region to login to.

No chance of catching that, problem ends.  (It probably ended before anyway but doesn't suit the dramatainment story)

Best solutions to griefers...

1. Sit down on something, either a chair or just ground sit. They can't move, cage or orbit you if you are sitting. 

2. Block them and any object they have out.

3. Just TP away and come back later. 

Griefers get bored when they get no response. They want the attention. You ignore them, they go find something else to do.

Does wearing something that sends out cute stuff all over and causes the DJ to crash the same thing? it was unintentional though.

[Bobbie Faulds]

A particle generator, not really. The DJ should have had his/her particles turned down anyway. SL default is high. First thing I do is turn mine down to 100 or so unless I'm watching something like a "fireworks" display. Always a good idea to take things like that off and descript as much as you can before you go to a busy venue anyway.
