We see this sim crossing loss of cam view at even very low aircraft speeds on some aircraft vehicles. . i been testing this on the Beta grid. with the same simboard that i made the vids with - if go dead slow. like really really slow. less than walking speed then it goes great. is smooth as. no popping or jumping - if go up to between avatar walking and flying speed then it starts to pop. but is manageable - above that then same old madness so it defo has something to do with how fast you going when hit the border crossing + i also seen the jumps and Kart 1.0 that the tester person was using. so i had a go on my Kart 1.0 and Mole hoverboard also. speed kills on them as well
  2. is harassment what that guy was doing. is AR'able he was probably way off his skull on drugs and/or alcohol the whole time RL. probably even singing on voice as well. they all come out on the weekends + some people can handle this kinda behavior by themselves for themselves and others present. some cant. for them that cant i just advise them to file the AR. and not worry about it after that. avoid the verbals. block/ban teleport away etc like you say cant reason with some dude off his skull edit add: being off your skull is no excuse tho. the guy was greifing
  3. sorry no he is not" meaning that greifer guy. he is not allowed to do that you file an AR (Abuse Report) against him yes. which is the right action for you to take i don't know what linden will do now. linden never say what actions/sanctions they take against greifers. is their policy not to say anything

It's exactly the same when you visit most sites on the web. This no different. the difference is that there has been a change by linden. a change to the relationship we have with them. this the important consideration whether or not other online websites do this don't have any bearing on our linden/resident relationship. the bearing is that this is a policy change. not a technical change. beneficial or not + what I am not understanding from you is: if you/me/us login on our accounts to secondlife website then 3rd party advertising and subsequent datamining is ok bc there are benefits in this for us. benefits that outweigh the negatives then when Perrie (I think was him. I will check after type this) said he would not want see this in the viewer. you agree with him on that am a bit confused when you say this. bc if is good for us when login with the browser. then why would it not good for us for the same reasons when login in with the viewer? maybe you have some other reason about why you agree with not having it in the viewer. which you not explain yet. or i am misunderstanding + edit: yes was Perrie. when you said: "I will be right alongside you if LL brings the ads inworld"
  5. no he is not. and you AR him you follow procedure. which is the right thing for you to do is up to linden now. what action they take
  6. just add here how this would work in SL. if linden ever did it + the tier to damn high reduce tier from $295 to $195. reduce prims to 5000. put 3 times as many sims on a server box as there are now edit: or 7500 prims and 2x whichever numbers that supplier thinks customers will buy is cheaper budget wise. but we get less for our money than before

And the sizes of food products has gotten smaller.. Pasta is 12 oz now instead of 16, tuna is 5oz instead of 7, sugar and flour are in 4 lb bags instead of 5, and the prices have all gone up! So where is this business model that shows drooping prices during a recession? AI have yet to see one company doing it. Not even Wal-mart. yes this pretty much perfectly explain how it works in a recession in the opposite economic climate it go the other way. greater volumes are produced on a package size basis you made the pretty astute observation that this is counter to how many of us understand supply side economics the goal objective of the supplier being to maintain consistently healthy profit margins. which are fundamentally dictated by the limits/size of the customers budget at any given time in the cycle

I reply so other people reading can more info/understanding of what they need be aware of in their own marketplace activities is ok that you want to try fit your own narrow definition of what you think the law means. people do this all the time. like find something someone somewhere anywhere that gives them a definition/opinion which suits what they want to hear + when getting into business (even if is only making digitals in SL) then best to research a bit. like with an open mind. and not so much go hunting for some contortion that fits your own wants. can bite you bigtime this. when find yourself involved in the big leagues. like as the defendant in a realworld court case

Dirtnap Mumfuzz wrote: LL directs the reader in another document to review the applicable laws after a brief introduction, and contact information for filing a complaint for either situation this part the heart of it using a brandname say like Harley Davidson as a keyword for your own motorcycle is covered by tort law. passing off in some legal jurisdictions (say like USA) can get further protections by register your brandname as a trademark. however under tort law which devolve from English common law (and is applicable in USA) then you can still pursue a claim in the Court even when the brandname is not registered as a trademark link here for anyone interested: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Passing_off + the ToS bind us to this law and other realworld laws. by the part that says we must agree and accept the jurisdiction of the Court nominated by linden. if we want to use their service

They may or may not be able to know that you looked at virtual ponies, but that's all.. well (: here is the url transaction history for buying some boots on the MP. I break each url onto different lines so can read more easy https: // marketplace.secondlife . com /products/search?utf8=%E2%9C%93 &search%5Bcategory_id%5D=&search%5Bmaturity_level%5D=G&search%5Bkeywords%5D=boots https: // marketplace.secondlife. com /p/YQ-Ladys-Boots-Space-Resize-Script-DEMO/1388491 https:// marketplace . secondlife. com /orders/1317844295/checkout/linden_dollar/new https: // marketplace . secondlife.com /orders/1317844295/checkout/linden_dollar/continue https : //marketplace.secondlife.com /orders/1317844295/checkout/receipt + + the point i am making by show these kinds of urls is about me/us not having any option but to allow linden to pass this kinda transaction history data to a 3rd party it goes to the heart of SL this point does. as we have always understood it. the rule/convention that no one can give out our private info to anyone else unless by our permission. linden have applied this rule to themselfs also. until now. this a gamechanger for all of us while i can adblock to not see adverts. is no way at this time to opt out of this transaction data (with my info in it) being delivered to the 3rd party advertiser yes this is how the general interwebz advert model works. my choices are like i said before: a) dont care b) dont use it (the secondlife website) + whats the effect of this? on linden? on MP shopkeepers? the effect that will be caused by any new pattern of response behaviours as shoppers we might make in response to this change. at least for certain kinds of products for some people linden say they going to consider all this carefully as they go. am just raising what i think is the key point. and hope they are taking this into consideration while they thinking about it bc is a big call this that linden are making. how it will work out eventually i dunno
  11. i don't think SL itself is anarchic in the common usage sense from the residents pov SL is a police state. by the police for the benefit of the police. the police being linden the company. police state in this context being very similar to the company towns in the 19th century sometimes we think SL is anarchy bc of the behaviours of some of the residents. but is only a small number who behave this way. most of us are conformists. same like people were in company towns. for the same reason. we totally dependent on the company
  12. I just list the SL urls to show my understanding of how IP profiling is done. you confirm yes. so that parts ok + the thing for me isn't about the advertisments. its about the change in lindens approach about who they share our info with. up til now has been nobody outside. like 3rd parties. not on an individual account level they haven't. this is new has always been an ability to associate an IP address with my account name. like inworld. MOAP etc. but I have the say over that. like can go or not go onto a parcel. can turn off Media as well if I want is not the adverts themselves that the concern. it the passing of my info to the 3rd party when I login to the website. this I cant choose the opportunity for a 3rd party to know what my account name is, and what I search/buy on the SL marketplace is now potential possible and is also possible for that to be associated with my RL IP profile. i not particularly care about this personal. but some people will be. specially people who into adult play which they maybe not want any 3rd party to know about is why i raised it. just hope that linden think this through carefully. they say they are so am take their word for it + on google they the biggest advert firm ever. they also want to know everything about everyone and everything. is their stated goal as a company. so its not like they not going to grab everything they can. they will. is what they do if linden go ahead full steam with allowing google to mine us while we logged into the secondlife website then people are going to think carefully about that. as it affect them personally their options being: 1) don't care. 2) am not going to login to the website. meaning am not going to buy stuff on the marketplace that might end up embarrass me RL i think for linden and residents individually the number that will matter the most in the end is 2) + about the embarrassment. i give an example just say that i am into adult pony play in SL. just say for example. and i buy this kind of stuff on the MP. and is captured and stored against my IP profile by the 3rd party. say google for example is going to be a potential problem for me if am helping my child say with their homework and we googling for animals. bc they doing a school homework on animals is tenuous this. remote possibilities. farfetched even maybe. but is something i would worry about if i was into adult pony play. no matter how tenuous or remote or farfetched it might be + edit add: i probably also worry a bit if i was a creator of adult products selling the marketplace .i might have to go inworld store again
  13. look the pic. think big stone doors. little person + when you finish can claim your t-shirt as well and wear and all your other loots as well at the same time (:

  15. thanks (: + is lots of nice people on here. if we have to have a list then i think Aunty Valerie be at the top as well (: she unfailing helpful and tolerant. and patient with people. is the patience she shows that sets her apart + i think of her as my Aunty bc i got some RL aunties like that as well. i i try learn off them. how to behave and that. it don't always work tho. i need practice more (: i think of most everyone on here in the same way. like they part my family. and everyone kinda self select their own place in the family after a time. like these ones aunties and those ones uncles. and over there is Gramps and Nana. and here is some older brothers and sisters. some younger ones over by here. and some 1st cousins who not see much off but they come over to our house and play sometimes so is all good (: + ps am not going to start saying what other peoples roles in the family are. lol not. i maybe get in big trubbl (: just say about Aunty Valerie bc she have the mana (honour) that accord with that status (:
  16. yes Phil do SEO stuff so am just saying what about this and what about that. at the moment if am wrong then he will say why. so that will be ok. and i learn off him + about the other thing eep!

All they can ever get is your IP address and the URL of the page you are on. Just like everyother page and file request that your browser makes. That's it. It makes no difference whether or not you are logged into the site. yes it do if i login to marketplace and enter boots in the search then the url says: https://marketplace.secondlife.com/products/search?utf8=%E2%9C%93&search%5Bcategory_id%5D=&search%5Bmaturity_level%5D=G&search%5Bkeywords%5D=boots if i go to my About on this forums then: http://community.secondlife.com/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/373213 on my SL account page then it says: https://secondlife.com/my/account/?lang=en-US if go to my Accounts then: https://secondlife.com/my/account/statement.php?lang=en-US + is a picture forming about me just off this. can know 1) my IP address 2) that i read english 3) that i read my financial account records (deduce i got money) 4) that i search for boots (and everything else) it get better ok https://marketplace.secondlife.com/products/search?utf8=%E2%9C%93&search%5Blayout%5D=gallery&search%5Bcategory_id%5D=&search%5Bsort%5D=&search%5Bper_page%5D=12&search%5Bkeywords%5D=boots&search%5Bprice_low%5D=101&search%5Bprice_high%5D=500&search%5Bprim_count_low%5D=&search%5Bprim_count_high%5D=&search%5Bcopy_permission%5D=0&search%5Bmodify_permission%5D=0&search%5Btransfer_permission%5D=0 can now know from this url that i am looking for boots upto 500L + even better more things like the forum ID can be used if passed to the advertiser as well in the URL. to find out my account name. and can also now parse the forums to even know what i think and chat about. what i like and don't like + how much of this linden will allow to be passed to 3rd party advertisers i dunno if pass all then can tie this to my IP address. and help make IP profiles. even when is multiple people in the same house using the same IP address like if the urls about kittens and cartoons and kids games then ok is a child in that house. if is others about child raising and womens clothes then ok Mum is online. and so on it happen all the time this on the interwebz like i quite often browse other shopping type RL websites. like search and click on stuff i might be interested in. for days after. weeks even sometimes. the adverts for what i was looking at follow me all over the interwebz + this above is an innocuous search for boots. but what about Adult stuff for people who search for that? is ok if is only going to go to SL merchants this adverts service. like a closed service but i worry if this info is going to be made available to 3rd party advertisers. which they will add to the profiles they keep on every IP address when they get it RL IP profile which include other RL web activities. real names and addresses even in many cases some advert companies are pretty responsible about all this. lots aren't tho

  19. you will be ok. just try chill out a bit and not get stressed to much. like do something for a bit when it getting you down. like cup of tea or walk the dog. or even just go out in the garden cold calling the toughest sales game ever. when done like a 100 and more and get a little string of rejections which happens cold calling. then can get you down sometimes. the flat out: no go away + also sometimes is just a little thing that can tip you over. something that normally you just meet with a smile and shrug off. and on to the next call I not mean to be harsh on you. I can be a bit tipped over myself easy sometimes. and not have any good reason for going down that way + the business idea you got I think is pretty good. can see how that can work for some businesses. not all. but some enough to make it viable. so keep plugging away at it. and hope that it works out good for you

I wrote what I wanted to pass to them and then the response was: "you know what...piss off and dont bother him with that **bleep** again...kk thanks" I was shocked. I immediatelly contacted him again: [18:47] Babylon (xbabylonx): is this a way your interact with people? [18:47] Babylon (xbabylonx): respond or Ill post this in forums [18:48] <owner>: Stop IMing Me. I'm not interested. [18:48] Babylon (xbabylonx): shame to you people [18:48] <owner>: Go away. [18:48] Babylon (xbabylonx): Ill sent you the forum link, have a nice day [18:48] <owner>: **bleep** off. [18:49] Babylon (xbabylonx): you will regret this [18:49] <owner>: I've never heard that before. [18:49] <owner>: Bye bye now.

Should I post his brand? Maybe you wouldnt believe it... the worry is what happened after you get told to piss off by the help you contact the owner and say about the poor response you get from the help the owner not reply to you then you threaten the owner and say if the owner do not respond to you then you going to make an example of them by escalate to public owner then reply and say: stop IMMng me. am not interested in your proposal then you escalate. and now come on here and go rah! rah! rah! + from the testimonals other people putting on here for you then we can deduce that you seem to be a lovely person when you get your own way if not then you get heavy. like threaten. and you have no shame in carrying out threats you make in your own best interest I personal would not have any business relationship with you. bc if we ever did have a difference then you going to go bananas on me. in any business I cant afford to be involved with a partner who goes bananas and gets heavy on me when they don't get what they want off me

The good news is that we have a fix for the issue on the beta grid, which seems to work. The fix will probably go to RC next week. cool thanks (:
  23. yes that all true. once you get inworld and can find it all + the OP point is how come it don't show up on this page: https://join.secondlife.com/?lang=en-US which is where you have to pick your starter avatar when you sign up for the first time 3 white guys. 1 Asian and 1 Latin looking dude. No black guys + it only matter I suppose to black guys this. like the first time they ever see SL. go to sign up and they go guess this game is not for me then. like I not ever imagine that I might wanna be a ordinary white guy or a asian or a latin looking dude maybe if they had guns or armor or wings or steampunk or whatever cool like that then maybe. but ordinary guy ??? nah!!!
  24. if was me then I start over 1) switch to Win7 Safe Mode 2) uninstall whatever video drivers you got 3) reboot into Safe Mode. will restart in Microsoft generic VGA mode 4) install the original version of the driver that came with your laptop when you get it. the exact version 5) reboot in Normal Mode 6) right click on Desktop and set Screen resolution (if you have to) 7) if you cant run all the programs that you used to run when you first got it. then is mostly likely a hardware problem. will have to go to the repair shop 8) if you can then you good to go + if you are good to go then don't ever change the driver ever again no matter what any popup message says. bc as you finding out they not always help you to go better. specially on laptops which quite often have OEM specific drivers made special for a particular make and model laptop + if the SL viewer message says "help you blah blah blah driver blah blah graphics blah blah" then ignore it. same any other program that wants to help you fix something that not broken if the SL message annoy you when it shows up every time on login then can suppress. so it not check your hardware make a copy of the SL shortcut. then rightclick open the shortcut Properties. add this to end of the target line: --noprobe + more here about all the SL startup parameters: http://wiki.secondlife.com/wiki/Viewer_parameters
