    There is [somebody] in Second life which started to help me to use Second life and teach me a lot but in return she asked my name, My Age, Where i live then she share picture of me and show me on discord then give me her different Second Life Id then Show me her pictures which are of some other persons from Instagram and at the end started then i m begin kind and getting close to her then started abusing me and then i block her. How can i file a report because i get to know that she did the same with my friend and she use the same story line did same to him .. how can i report that girl she is being since 12 years on Second life and she might done this a lot. and she posted on my feed that i am liar and stay away from me. is this allowed?

    "and she posted on my feed" No she didn't. If you're talking about the sl feed where you posted a photo of your avatar in a field, then no she didn't (or perhaps you meant some other social site). It's good she didn't :) It's good you have her blocked. In the event IF someone ever would do that to you, screenshot that and upload that in world so you can make a report of it. Also include a link to your feed to Linden Labs, so they can remove it. But if it's just a comment to a post, click on the comment box, and then an "x" should appear, and click that to remove the comment. You can also go into your privacy settings and set your sl feed only so that friends can see it, and the public can't see it. That way no bad person will be able to post something mean on your feed. Again, all this is to help you in case if you run into any bad person in the future. That's terrible she abused you. That stinks. Make sure she is blocked on discord, and any other social site too (If you're connected on Instagram, block her there. If your not, block her there anyway if you do have an account there.).

    Also, this is extremely important. When meeting people online anywhere in general like SL, discord, Instagram, etc, always be super careful of what information you share. Do not feel like you must share your real life name, age, where you live, discord, other social networks, etc. Especially your real life name and where you live. Those pieces of info are sensitive and should be kept private. It's a good rule of thumb to not share sensitive private info. There's scammers and bad people online anywhere in general. I never share my real life name and where I live because I know I'll never see these online people in real life. People online can really do some harmful stuff once they get your info (because there's people online who will want info for nefarious purposes like for stealing money, anything really), and then simply ditch you once they have it. I have some IT knowledge, so I wanted to share with you so you can be safe :) Anyway, please be more careful and be safe out there mayurrock :) I hope you'll find better people to engage with.

    You won't know whether or not LL even looks at the AR or does anything about it. You can hope they will but you won't know.  That's why I never report anyone. I block them and derender their avatar and then go about my business.  Of course doing things like what the person did to the OP isn't cool but there are tons of "not so nice" people in the world that just want attention.

    Yes I am very well aware we don't receive updates. I'm used to it. I'm still glad we have the option to report though :) And I will still make use of the report option. I also block and derender them. I've blacklisted people too. Yup best to do all these things with terrible people in SL. It's good we have these options to protect ourselves. Stay safe out there take care 🩷

    It would likely need to be very serious for LL to do anything about it, otherwise they will be overwhelmed dealing with reports based on petty disputes & arguments. Often it's just less time & effort to simply block the people in question. As a rule of thumb; If the police wouldn't do anything about it in a RL situation, chances are LL won't on SL either. Also, referring to people as a "piece of cr*p" (with or without merit) will likely aggravate the matter and provoke them further into behaving in the manner described.

    I find the easiest way to deal with trolls and pests alike is to simply ignore them. - They don't like that as it doesn't give them the attention they seek and more often than not they will move on to something or someone else. 

     

    True we can block and ignore. Even if Linden Labs doesn't fix the issue, at least we have the option to still report in general 😌👍

    That's exactly what I mean although as I said previously, as long as you have the Date, Time and Place of the incident, you can simply pull up the name of the offender in the inworld search and choose report.   The screenshot up on your screen when making that report may or may not be needed but it's another layer of proof.   LL can check the IM themselves however they do that.  

    Amazing!! Yea I'll be sure to have the screenshot too so it further helps for context.That's extremely helpful to know thank you so much! :)

    Regardless of what viewer is used and whether it's supported or not, she can still add the screenshot, which she said she has, to the report.  The screenshot is on her phone.  She can send the screenshot to her computer, upload it to SL and add it to her report.  Date and time and place of the occurrence means SL can corroborate what was said.

    Hmm interesting, how can a Lumiya screenshot be added to a desktop viewer report? Lumiya is the one OP is using though, and referring to it since she had the chat using Lumiya. I am 100% certain it does not support reporting. And it really isn't supported anymore, since the dev stopped updating it. It's not in the Google Play store anymore. I wasn't saying she can't add the screenshot though. So I hope this clears things up.

    Because when I make a report in Firestorm, it only screenshots what you see in-world. I can only think of uploading something using that gyazo site, and then provide that link with the report. Is that what you mean? I am interested since I do use Lumiya myself sometimes.

    I'm confused how exactly it can be added to the report. When you say upload, I'm thinking the image would be uploaded via using that menu option, and it's added to her inventory. Then she would open the image from the inventory. The image would be on her screen in-world. Then the report screenshot can be refreshed to include the Lumiya screenshot inventory item? Is that what you mean? Not hating. I'm trying to figure what you mean so I too can have this information. Because what you said is kind of vague. That is very interesting! 🙂 Because if yes, then that is really cool and extremely useful thank you!

    I don't think you can but you can report next time you are logged in.

    and @Fionalein Technically she is in world via Lumiya, since Lumiya is a mobile app viewer. I know it's not being updated anymore. I know it's not in the Google Play store anymore. But there are people in SL who still use it currently, and there's even an entire group dedicated to people who do use it. So yes, she would be in world. And Lumiya lacks the ability to make reports since it's very limited in comparison to desktop viewers.

    So what she is saying is, she has Lumiya viewer chat log screenshots. She wants to know how she can add them to a support ticket for reporting someone if that is possible? I don't think there is.

    @Missy Starchild I believe this is what you were getting at. I do wonder when filing a support ticket, if there is something where you can upload images.

    @Linden Lab I'm not sure who to tag for advice on the Lumiya mobile viewer. I could be incorrect doing this, but I figured I'd try anyway.

    If anyone wants to help, feel free to reply to @Missy Starchild regarding Lumiya chat log screenshots thank you! :) Best of luck Missy!!

    Slander/Defamation/Death Threats: Is Linden Labs Going To Stop This?

    If you have muted and blocked them, why are you bothering to keep checking their profile? Let them fade from your memory like a bad dream. Right now they are living in your head rent free. 

    Ever since I blocked them, I haven't been checking their profile. Don't know why you think I am still, and I'm not. I never implied this at all. Thanks for your concern though. No need to worry so much about me 🙏❤️ My main complaint is that SL seems like they aren't doing anything about these abuse reports. If they are doing anything, then that's good. That is all :)

    I thank all of you for your suggestions. If anyone reading has had any success with an abuse reports actually being taken care of, let me know, otherwise I have already been told good advice from everyone here. Thank you so much everyone. I do hope they actually do something this time.

    block and report

    Yup I know this already from all the others who have told me the same thing. I have already done from past replies. The user is still active sadly no matter what I do to report :( Seems like reporting doesn't do anything. I wonder if reporting has worked for anyone at all for abuse......................

    Hello everyone. I'm struggling with a user who continues to slander and defame me with false information. This person will lie on their profile and highly exaggerate details about me that are all lies. They have admitted to me in the past they do this to get my attention and attention from other people since they think no one listens to them. So therefore they must "exaggerate" details even if it's to lie and hurt me in the process. They don't care about my well being at all. As long as they get the attention they want from people and if the strangers believe their lies, then it reinforces their toxic behavior to keep doing this repeatedly.

    I don't know why people out there do this :( I suffer from depression, anxiety, and suicidal thoughts because of their violent behavior. It makes me afraid to live in general. Sometimes I've thought of what it's like to not exist. They even messaged once how wishing me success of offing myself. In case anyone is worried and concerned, I am getting help irl with this from a professional. It's taking time of course to heal myself from the trauma and emotional scars :(

    This is the same person who has told me they wish I could die from covid and threaten to burn anything I personally gave them irl. The gift was from a deceased relative of mine irl.

    Then they pretend they are completely innocent to strangers and friends, saying I'm the one to blame. This person has caused me a great deal of harm projecting their problems onto me. It doesn't make it okay for them to slander and defame me though. That is illegal to do right? Anyway, I don't know what to do about this slandering. I have filed reports and still they keep slandering me, calling me horrible names like it's high school. I made sure to include screenshots with the report along with their username. And yes I filed the report in world. I don't know if the report will do anything since in the past nothing happened after my report. How likely are Linden Labs going to actually step up and do something? I use SL for shopping for clothes, seeing stores in world, going to shopping events, taking artistic photos of my outfits, and going to scenic sims since they are so pretty.

    Thanks for reading and listening.
