  1. So, any business that pays for a premium membership can have free advertising on the LL blog?
  2. Sure, but why should Uber and Blueberry get special treatment when there are so many more businesses who do it better then them?
  3. I would hope Xiola will promote *ALL* businesses now with such advertising!
  4. The land you have bought in the region starting with the letter S..... is mainland. You have no way of directly restarting it. You are able to send a support ticket to the Lab if it needs it. I don't think it does. It's pretty heavily script loaded and a reboot won't fix that.
  5. You've never been in a hugely busy shopping event when someone TPs in? It's a good 2-3 second freeze each time. Edit: Almost the first of the month, so it's a good time to test it. Watch Seraphim, get one of the huge ones and walk laps to see it.
  6. Mmm, you are right Parhelion! So premium will now include a fully furnished home in a mature area!
  7. You can only "invite friends on your first day" if you are premium? Borderline phrasing there. We know the meaning from experience, but will someone of the faceboook generation coming in for the first time know it's meaning?
  8. One needs to keep the forums quite suitable for a grandmother. I showed mine that picture and she thought he was adorable. He Man vs Captain America
  9. A lot, if not the bulk, of people who use picks use them for friends, rp rules, funny jokes, portions of chatlogs. As an avid profile watcher, surprisingly few people actually just carry ads for venues there. Some do sure, but more often then not it's words of admiration for those close.
  10. Just be aware that on a homestead this can be a minimal height, or infinate. The setting is "Block Parcel Flyover" on the Region tab. So, if people are blocked up in heaven check and toggle that off
  11. With egg? This one is scrambled egg on the pizza, topped with pineapple http://yum-o.org/recipe/breakfast-hawaiian-pizza-with-ham-eggs-cheese-and-pineapple/
  12. Daw, there are a lot of nice people who rent land Phil. Tarnishing them all as "Land Barons" is a bit mean
  13. Trying May-bot also gives uncannily accurate results And final proof it is well trained... using a picture of Patch Naked....
  14. Oh, I agree they exist despite TOS. I've fallen to them myself Blush, they exist. I was selling some land to myself (moving it out of a group) and made the mistake of setting it to $1 but not setting the owner... landbot comes in and snipes the quarter sim for L$1 before I could cancel the sale. It then passed quite quickly person to person through maybe 5 or 6 rapid sales at slightly increasing prices (I guess to launder the bot) until it went on sale properly. I'm a strong believer in the thought that's it's actually rather hard to judge who is a bot and who isn't based on silence. We just rubbed up on the words each of us says a little Sorry to mistake your words.
  15. I believe Blush is a very sweet creator and a lady, not a 'he'! Yes, there are bots, I have two constantly in world myself not to increase traffic but to handle group invites, with that number jumping up substantially if I need to do things in a timely manner. But in terms of traffic bots, sometimes they are people who fall asleep at the keyboard and sometimes they are people who simply don't want to talk to you. To find and report those needs you to investigate for a few weeks, noting who is there for how long. Watch for someone who never talks there at regular times in regular positions. In terms of traffic bots, they are not against TOS if they have the scripted agent flag on. In terms of true Landbots, their owners are easy to find... after it buys the parcel you watch and wait for the owner to appear and do all the group change work then list it for sale on their business alt at the higher price.
  16. No they are not the same difference. One is programmed to snap up land very fast, it's a technique land barons use to get rich. One is used to pad a parcel in legacy search. Completely different purposes.
  17. Of course they exist Blush, but not answering your hi is not indicative of something being one. As to your other reasons, you didn't say what they were.
  18. Well, I wouldn't exactly say the government (any government) are professional. More often then not they are paid clowns! ?
  19. While it may have been, if I am thinking (on an alt especially), I also completely ignore people. Silence is never a good sign of a bot.
  20. Ah sorry, misunderstood you, scatterbrained neko that I am. 8x8 mesh grid each displaying 64 meters... As a hud would be ok, not so great as a vehicle display. Not sure how it would look with scrolling. As above 4 linked mesh panels, that scale as you move. external server that grabs and merges with imgmagick and moap that I'd be hesitatant to use MOAP myself as a sizable number of people disable it for security.
  21. Sample code on Tyche's site about 1/3 of the way down http://gridsurvey.com/api.php
