Beth Macbain Posted March 10, 2020 Share Posted March 10, 2020 I see that all the time, as well as one that tells me everyone can see me. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ardy Lay Posted March 10, 2020 Share Posted March 10, 2020 I see that very often, likely because I am very complex. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ivanova Shostakovich Posted March 10, 2020 Share Posted March 10, 2020 I think it depends on the location or activity. If someone has a pretty poor computer, and they want or need to do something where it's very crowded, rendering no one might be the only way they can do it. Maybe someone wishes to avoid distraction. Maybe someone believes, mistakenly or otherwise, that de-rendering everyone gives them some other benefit The behaviors of a few people in a crowd will nearly always defy explanation.

Sometimes though, there's a little whisper that comes from dark prim corners. "...you may not be real..." That one worries me. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We can let someone else imagine them for us. 😎 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Come to think of it, I've even got that message on my SoaS grid and if anybody could see me there, I'd be really worried indeed. 1 minute ago, Beth Macbain said: Yes, I do. Every shopping event.

Or maybe more interesting anyway. Complexity is a non-linear stochastic function in RL. Some people confound imagination. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't know about other viewers but definitely on Firestorm in Prefs > Notifications > Alerts you can stop that from showing up scroll down to "Warn me if my avatar complexity may be too high" click it and click the down arrow to move it in to the "Never show" section 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bigmoe Whitfield Posted March 10, 2020 Share Posted March 10, 2020 I can see everyone lol. but never been told I can not be seen. But I'm on my alt right now lol. she's slinked and apricoted. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is possible that you would see that if I was near you. Anytime I'm popping around potentially crowded events, I drop my 'maximum complexity' slider all the way down to 20,000. So anyone around me that is higher than 20,000 would possibly get that message. Then, since I'm quite forgetful about my settings, it may stay at 20,000 for quite some time until suddenly I notice that almost everyone around me is a colored blob. Sometimes that can take a while. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I always advise my Avatar Safety students to not set "No Limit" on their Complexity slider. By setting it just under No Limit, say about 350,000, you protect yourself against griefers wearing graphics crashers, which have complexities in the millions. Yet you will still see most avatars. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I always get the message that not everyone can see me in crowded events and then 5 minutes or so later everyone can. When someone new shows up it goes back to not everyone being able to see me. I wonder if it sends the signal that you can "see me" even though I am a colored blob to you. All that time and money and you've reduced my AV to a blob...
