1 Rhonda Huntress 22,828 Posted May 3, 2017 Share Posted May 3, 2017 No. They will only see your avatar name and how much you gave them. 2 Link to post Share on other sites

L$ transfers only show the SL identities of the two parties involved, which will be recorded in their transaction histories for no more than 32 days. No RL information is divulged. 3 Link to post Share on other sites

Greetings Contradoor, It is not possible for any user to find out your Real Life information as a result of tipping them or giving them L$ in world. 2 Link to post Share on other sites

If you enable media and visit a sim that's playing a music stream, it is possible for the stream provider to obtain the IP address of every computer that connects, including yours. That's the first step towards obtaining someone's RL identity, but it's not a sufficient step. IP addresses are often shared and reassigned over time and internet service providers do not generally make public the association of IP address with RL identity. Your RL identity is generally safe here, so long as you aren't reckless. 1 Link to post Share on other sites
