    Gentle reminder that This includes speculating about who may or may not be whose alt. Please don't do it.
  2. Quartz Mole
    Since everyone seems to agree the subject has been adequately discussed -- done to death, even -- I'm bowing to popular demand and closing the thread.
  3. Quartz Mole
    Dyna has had to go to attend to First Life for a bit and has left me minding the store. To reiterate what she said, this thread really is teetering on the brink. If people really must pursue arguments about whether particular terms are justified or not, they should do it in personal messages or IMs in world or somewhere other than this forum.
  4. Quartz Mole
    Gentle reminder not to let the thread drift off into a discussion of First Life lotteries, contests and so on.
  5. Quartz Mole
    I think it would be preferable to confine this discussion to SL and Linden Lab rather than allowing it to become a broader discussion of San Francisco in particular or US cities in general.
  6. Quartz Mole
    We're not looking for reasons to close the thread but when people report posts, we have to act on them, and after the proportion of noise to signal gets consistently too high (or we get tired of cleaning things up) threads get locked.
  7. Quartz Mole
    Enjoyable though food derails certainly are, I think it's a bit too soon since the previous one to start another, unless it's a way of indicating that people are bored with the notional subject of the thread and want it closing.
  8. Quartz Mole
    Please let's not discuss what we see as the bad points of named individuals. It won't end well.
  9. Quartz Mole
    This thread went completely off topic long ago, and now it's turned into sniping at individual posters, I'm locking it. Please feel free to discuss differences between viewers in a new thread in this forum or in the SL Viewer subforum, but let's try to keep the next one on topic, enjoyable though the food fight has been.

    I think it's time to put the vampires back in their tomb for a while, since the topic has been pretty thoroughly explored. To summarise -- If you think you're being harassed, file an abuse report. Also block your harasser. Depending on what viewer you're using, derender may be an option. Consider reporting the matter to the data protection authority in your jurisdiction. Garlic necklaces may or may not help. I'm now locking the thread before we descend into a discussion of what sort of sauce to eat with our stake and chips (see thread on the Official Viewer v Firestorm).
  11. Quartz Mole
    If people want to discuss consent in SL, they are very welcome to start a thread dedicated to the topic, either in this forum or (probably better) the Adult forum. But this thread simply isn't the place for that discussion.
  12. Quartz Mole
    Please don't. Remember Dyna and I have to clean up the mess.

  14. Quartz Mole
    [edited to remove quoted post] If you want to have an extended discussion of something SL-related, be it "I don't like the way the viewer handles outfits, and this is why, and this how how I think it be improved" or "This is what I have to say about sexism in SL" or "Should child avatars wearing space suits be allowed to spam people with bite requests on nude beaches in Gor?" that's great, but it should happen in its own thread, because it's not really on-topic for a thread about pet peeves. If, however, you want a discussion of something that isn't SL-related, then the SL forums, including this thread, aren't the place to hold it.
  15. Quartz Mole
    Please, everyone, remember that the qualification " Posts made before 7/29/2022 will be left open unless policy violations cause them to be closed." in the forum participation guidelines that refers only to that particular restriction -- that is, while it wouldn't now be possible to start a thread about Pet Peeves that aren't SL-specific peeves, this one has been grandfathered in as a place there people can still talk about pet peeves provided that they don't contravene any of the other guidelines while they're doing so. So please don't try to use this thread as a way to circumvent, for example, the rules and guidelines about discussing other threads that have been closed, or the moderation process in general, or by going off topic for the thread itself, which is, of course, "pet peeves." If the discussion of a particular pet peeve turns into a discussion of something else (shortcomings in various different viewers, for example) then it should happen somewhere else. And if that something else is something that the guidelines say shouldn't be discussed in these forums (e.g. politics or threads that have been locked by a moderator) then that somewhere else should be somewhere other than the official forums -- virtualverse.one, perhaps, or the SecondLife SubReddit, or Twitter X or wherever. Please help us to keep this thread open, because if it gets locked, it can't be restarted.

    I'm not an expert, but when I've changed the parcel setting on my alt's Linden Homes parcel it seems to persist.

    Here's one way to do it https://i.gyazo.com/2012d25f6cb4d8a2ad29ddbdf7b1e415.mp4

    I don't think you need an Experience to use llSetEnvironment. According to the Wiki, You do, though, need an experience to use llSetAgentEnvironment, which is what you describe, but I don't think you'd need that function for this particular use case.

    Sigs about golf, unless it's SL golf, are off-topic for SL forums.
  20. Quartz Mole
    @Arielle Popstar @Phil Deakins I think if you want to carry on this discussion about viewer features, it might be better suited to its own thread in the Viewer sub-forum. I can try moving it to its own thread there if you would like (though I hope I don't have to, because it's a somewhat fiddly process).
  21. Quartz Mole
    According to the advice I have from Governance, they are liable to be removed if they appear to be political or off topic for SL.
  22. Quartz Mole
    @BilliJo Aldrin @Gabriele GravesI've checked and the answer is an emphatic "No" on mentioning any RL political candidates or their campaigns in Forum Sigs. However, mentioning your RP Campaign Headquarters in a sig is OK, so long as there's no indication in the sig of the RL candidate or cause you're campaigining for or against. I hope that clarifies things for everyone.
  23. Quartz Mole
    So that's what causes crop circles. I'd always wondered.
  24. Quartz Mole
    Good question. I think I know the answer but I'll check with Governance before I commit myself.

    I can see Sid's signature. It''s an advert for his shop.
