Why can't I uncheck "Only friends or groups can call or IM me" ?

[Polkamatic Feller]

On SL2 viewer, under pref>privacy, I cannot uncheck the "Only friends can call or IM me" option.

As such, I am unable to receive IMs from people unless we are friends or in a group together.

People tell me to check my IMs and they are not getting through, ugh!

How can I allow my viewer to uncheck this option that is not available to me currently?

TIA

Good question.  You ought to be able to just click to set or unset the option.  Have you tried doing it with a different viewer?  See if you can change it with Firestorm or Imprudence, or an older version of a LL viewer.

Is the option grayed out or is it 'normal' but it does not respond to you clicking it?

Can you navigate to it using tab and activate it using the space bar?

if your voice is currently disabled, try enabling it and then see if you can uncheck the "only friends or groups can call or im". you can disable voice again after that if you wish to.

add info/comments to your post by using options > edit.

Is that a known issues? And how on earth do you find out about something like this?

what do you mean where i found out about it? don't everyone have voices inside their heads telling them stuff?

if it helps the op at all - only time will tell =) but i have seen this here and there before.

unless i totally misunderstood and am currently barking up the wrong tree

That is way cool, Bee. Who knew?

The voices... Don't get me started on the voices... Trying to disable them does nothing. And obviously yours was the correct answer. Sufficiently unrelated to the actual issue - it had to work.
