    Madness. As soon as women started wearing pants it was all downhill from there.

    You wanna run that by me again? How exactly do you monitor their camera and mouse without llRequestPermissions? Are you making that that up or did you just admit to a pretty major security exploit?

    That's not a deviation at all. It's a big part of the problem. As was previously mentioned, other software gives you various refresh options or throws you back to the login screen. SL is unique in that the entire client craps out when the connection does.

    At least with the restarts you can theoretically stay ahead of it, moving region to region, as they don't all go down at once. You have another option besides "stare at a gray screen or quit".

    Reporting stores is something I've complained about several times. Linden Lab really expects us to flag one listing at a time through pages and pages of spam. They've always treated their residents like unpaid volunteers, but this is one of the situations where it's really egregious. That's hours and hours of work.

    How come everything's gotta be reduced to toxic this or toxic that? That word gets thrown around way too much these days.

    The complaints in this thread don't really apply to you. For example, the objects I sell aren't clothes, they're functional devices. For us, a timed demo makes more sense, since it's the functions that people are testing, not the appearance, and a "demo" texture/prim won't matter. Gotta have the timer so people don't just use the things indefinitely. For clothes or "visual only" objects, it makes much more sense to add a demo part or texture and not use a timer.

    @Linden Lab if you really expect me to flag each individual listing when these people have 20 or 30 or more pages of spam, I expect you to pay me an hourly wage.

    I can always mute them if they don't get the joke like @Rowan Amore does. You know, sort of like they should do, vs giving ammunition to the next prankster to come along.

    It's the ones with angry rants in their profiles and "protection" prims that you do it to, then send them a screenshot. I've been known to message someone that I never intended to talk to and say "hi baby" when the first thing in their profile says they hate that. You'll never change my mind that the people that fight the hardest against "being bothered" are going to attract it more than anyone else.

    Years ago I worked overnight mall security. Every year, Black Friday rolled around and we'd set up one area filled with couches and recliners for people to sleep on. Whenever a woman would come to us to page their missing husband/boyfriend/father/son, we'd have them check there first. Found every single one, without fail. Every shopping event in SL should have an adjacent homestead for partner storage, that's a great idea.

    Peeve: That people are more likely to click headlines that make them angry, which is why the algorithms do this.

    Considering how many places SL is banned from, I don't blame people for using Kick. This isn't much different than saying "We won't let you join our club but how dare you join theirs."

    I keep them as demo locations. Plus I agree with @Qie Niangao in a way. I've always felt that merchants with an in world store are more invested and more likely to be active. Incidentally, they're probably more likely to react to complaints like this thread. You're gambling on the MP that they're even still logging in anymore.
  15. Paul Hexem
    You'd be shocked how many people prefer the MP. I always have at least two in world vendor locations, complete with in world discounts, and still make 90% of my sales on the MP.

    All the Belli regions have registered scripted agents banned at the estate level.

    Peeve: That more neighbors aren't neighborly.
  18. Paul Hexem
    I'm a little surprised that many actually have their scripted status set.
  19. Paul Hexem
    Peeve: That there aren't more Lindens like him on staff.
  20. Paul Hexem
    Peeve: That we have to harass specific Lindens and risk actions against our own accounts in order to get them to actually enforce their own rules. That they don't have some of us blocked is actually amazing.
  21. Paul Hexem
    They usually aren't.

    I may have to take back some of the things I said about LL, then. Nice to know we've got capable people looking at it and you're actually finding things. I'm still blown away that it's taken 20 years and volunteer third party devs though. Without having read all of the other thread, how likely are we to see a reconnect option?
  23. Paul Hexem
    I can't possibly see someone reading a post and then going in world to take action! Nope, that's not something I'd worry about at all! Oh. Are we having a competition?
  24. Paul Hexem
    There were a couple early on, but they were removed pretty quickly.
  25. Paul Hexem
    They convince their customers to give them money on something that doesn't work (at best, in some cases does much worse). That's pretty textbook manipulation.
