Blush Bravin Posted February 13, 2019 Share Posted February 13, 2019 If you set the small parcel to group only and then also add a security orb that covers the entire parcel, even those who fly high trying to see inside the parcel will be teleported out of the parcel. This is the closest thing to privacy in SL. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Solar Legion Posted February 13, 2019 Share Posted February 13, 2019 Oh for cripe sake .... The user was already told about sim wide access lists, had the effectiveness explained concerning the use cases they brought up and they asked a few more, specific questions. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No. Your group members can simply fly elsewhere before teleporting into the sim (no, you cannot prevent them from doing this) and as mentioned earlier, general purpose ban lines do not prevent access in the whole vertical portion of the parcel. Anyone within the group that has sim level access can circumvent your proposed method. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All Second Life clients can circumvent No Fly, some TPVs simply found a way to separate that ability/flag from general Linden Admin access mode/requests (the older method for doing so involved using an option in the Advanced/Developer menu system that - when activated - gave access to No Flay circumvention and allowed general users the ability to see a few things they normally couldn't).

And if they are flying before they teleport then will be flying when they enter your estate.

Blush Bravin Posted February 13, 2019 Share Posted February 13, 2019 (edited) If you want to stop others from looking inside private homes. You must do this: Set each private home parcel to group access only (each home should have it's own group) Install a security orb for each private parcel that covers the entire private parcel and set to 0 notice for booting people out of the parcel. This orb can be set to allow group members or can use a white list. Edited February 13, 2019 by Blush Bravin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fruit Islands grants full estate rights on homesteads and full sims. Or they did when I had my homestead. Ownership has since changed hands so I don't know if that policy has ever changed. I don't think it has. Edited February 13, 2019 by Selene Gregoire Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lindal Kidd Posted February 13, 2019 Share Posted February 13, 2019 (edited) Hey, Toolinator...you need to understand some basic stuff. Read the Knowledgebase, as others suggested. Some key points: 1. A "region" or "sim" is a grid square on the map, 256 x 256 meters. If you bought a private region from LL, your monthly land fee is $249 USD (you'll have to convert that to your currency, and add Value Added Tax, if applicable.) 2. You can keep everyone out of your private island, or allow only members of a specific group to go there, or only members you specifically put on the access list. The above only restricts physical access. But if your island is not adjacent to any other regions, then nobody can "lurk outside" the borders and see in. (Digression. Your region may be "surrounded by water" in two different ways. Look on your map. If the areas of water around your region also have region names, then they are active regions, and people can exist there. If the "water" around your region is flat, unshaded blue and there are no region names, then that is what we call "void". It looks like water, but that space is only on the map and has no other existence. Try walking there, from the edge of your region...you can't, it's like there is an invisible wall. Nobody can be out there, to spy on you.) Now, the next part. 3. You can subdivide your region up into smaller parcels. For each parcel, you can put up banlines, preventing physical access (although since you have already kept trespassers out of the entire region, there's no reason to do that.) 4. You can also limit the ability of people outside a parcel of land to see people who are on that parcel, or hear nearby chat from them...the invisibility works both ways. People on the parcel can't seen or hear chat from anyone outside the parcel. So, if you want to engage in Naughty Stuff in your house, and keep others outside from seeing that, you can.

Blush Bravin Posted February 13, 2019 Share Posted February 13, 2019 I see this happen all the time in the group I moderate. When someone asks a question and they get answers from numerous people all coming at them at the same time, it's confusing. I don't think the OP is at fault for being confused by so many answers. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They have there own house on the island that they can do what they want with. Congrats on affording an entire sim. Want to stop them from camming in? You'll have to explicitly ban them from your parcel on said island. Much of this thread would not presently exist if you'd stated some of this much earlier. To recap for you: Yes, you can prevent the general userbase from accessing the sim by setting the entire estate - at estate level - to a group. Once this is done you then need to set a separate parcel for your own home on the sim. Got that individual parcel made? Good. Set it so only those on the parcel can see/interact with others on it. Once you have that done, add your "children" to that parcel's ban list. The above steps will keep the general userbase off of your sim and prevent your "children" from being able to see what you are up to. What it will not do is keep them from moving their camera into the structure and seeing any furniture/posters/etc that are present. It will only prevent them from seeing or otherwise interacting with others on that parcel and will prevent their "physical" access.

Cinos Field Posted February 13, 2019 Share Posted February 13, 2019 Short answer: Other than banning everyone from the entire sim there's no way to stop them from camming into your house. Best you can do is make them unable to see avatars in it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
