  1. I know this is getting off-topic but I only ever use the "All Activity" feed.
  2. In reality the majority of scripts are going to want to do the slow version if it's not cached anyway. I think wanting to do complex other stuff instead is going to be a minor use-case. For that, the majority pays with unnecessary complication.
  3. It would have been better if the new function just went and fetched the darn notecard if it wasn't already cached and always returned after it was available.
  4. I have no idea about RLV but there is no script way to switch to wireframe view.
  5. I've made a v1.2 update that now does what @Zalificent Corvinus suggested and by default no will longer ban anyone already on the owner's land to make it easier to have people over. There is an option on the new HUD to revert back to the original behaviour. This version also contains some bug fixes. I have submitted a bulk redeliver request but it's been over 8 hours so far and it's still pending. I'm not sure what to expect delay-wise there (or if it will ever work???) as I've never done that before, so I'd suggest that anyone who wants the update probably should redeliver it manually.
  6. I'm on Firefox 122 on Linux and I'm not seeing any issues accessing the forums or any other part of secondlife.com
  7. I always assume that no matter whether a topic poster wants discussion or not, that they will get it so it never occurred to me to have to give anyone permission to discuss the topic. Is that not the expectation? I definitely expected it.
  8. It was really the repeated things you said that simply were not true that raised my ire. I'm happy to concede, I may have been hasty about that. There is just one point though I would like to address: I don't see this as a product, I see it as just a project from a hobbyist. It may certainly look like a product because I have employed branding techniques but it only looks like that. Think of it as play-branding, nothing more. I don't sell any products here, everything I do make available to others, I give away for free and have no intention to change that ever. I don't make my living in SL and never have. I don't need to nor do I desire to do that. I did make a singular product once over 12 years ago (a voting contest system) when I toyed with the idea of paying for my land solely with proceeds from SL but it was not using the "Graven Hearts" branding and eventually I sold the whole rights for that to another person when I went on hiatus around 2010. The Graven Hearts branding came from made-up vampire clan (that was never an actual clan) that a friend and I came up with for some informal roleplay when I came back to SL and just put some artwork together for fun. I use the same play-branding thing for all the projects I intend to give away and it's just my attempt to make everything consistent and look just a little bit polished. I really don't have anything to sell anyone. I'm not saying you are saying that at all but I feel there might be confusion and suspicion lurking around the Graven Hearts thing a little in this topic for some reason especially when the word "Product" is being bandied around. So I hope this clears that up for anyone who was wondering.
  9. It clearly says that this is not a system for people who want to keep their lands open to the general public. Why would someone who currently has their land open, use this system when it states it's not for that? I cannot be responsible for people who suddenly decide to close their land, that is a choice they are making for themselves.
  10. @diamond MarchantI'm going to assume malfeasance from you at this point. Abnor also didn't read everything from the beginning and/or misunderstood and then admitted as much in a later post here: I have never pushed this as a general purpose solution for anyone.
  11. The litmus test here for any issues should be: If not, well I can live with that unless there is a reasonably feasible mitigation that can be made.
  12. I noticed that 15 seconds grace period doesn't work from a scripted ban when on the land even when not part of a region crossing. It didn't trouble me much because most people are going to manually eject as well once they realise that the grace period exists after they manually add someone to the ban list.
  13. I too am an SL explorer and wanderer and have spent many years traveling around mainland in one form or another. So I absolutely understand and agree that the vast majority of people wandering around don't have any intentions of griefing people. Griefing was the furthest thing from my mind when I was making this. Unfortunately Zalificent and others do have a point in that there are some people with very entitled attitudes both wandering around inworld and here in the forums. These people are like really bad PR for all us, they make the most noise and therefore end up being taken as representative of all travelers and wanderers. So the rest of us end up being tarred by that brush. The phrase: "This is why we can't have nice things" springs to mind. Thank you for your positive vibes about the system, I'm glad you like it
  14. On the contrary, I'm pretty upbeat that so far nothing has been revealed that shows this to be worse than the alternative.
  15. I find it ironic that the behaviours in this topic are only making me more sympathetic with people who close their lands. At least they are honest about their motives.
  16. Of course it was hyperbole but not mine. I merely borrowed this from one of the many arguments on the subject of orbs and thought a) it would resonate with anti-orb people and b) be tongue in cheek.
  17. Incorrect. Using the banlines also bring in a visual aspect and a hard blocking aspect as well. You could argue that everything is subjective if you want.
  18. Stop making these false claims. I can stand at least a little distance back from banlines and see them perfectly without hitting them. I can even see them when traveling towards them if my velocity is low enough. People with zero-second orbs who are stopping all public access are not tailoring them to altitude. That is who my system is aimed at and I have been very clear about that. Nobody should be deploying this system if they want any kind of public access. I have been very clear about that as well. I don't know what your agenda is but it's clear you have one and it isn't about trying to help anyone.
  19. I have tested what happens when an avatar is on the land when the scripted ban happens though not directly after a region crossing. The avatar is moved to any adjacent parcel that they have access to. I cannot test a region crossing in conjunction with this as I don't have any land bordering one.
  20. ^^^ This. Yes and I was fully prepared before going in to this what would happen. Sometimes you just have to do it anyway. Still, I am dismayed at some of the true to form responses and those where it is clear they didn't read everything before commenting.
