  1. 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.
  2. Peeve: That people are more likely to click headlines that make them angry, which is why the algorithms do this.
  3. 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."
  4. 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.
  5. 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.
  6. All the Belli regions have registered scripted agents banned at the estate level.
  7. I'm a little surprised that many actually have their scripted status set.
  8. 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.
  9. 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?
  10. 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?
  11. There were a couple early on, but they were removed pretty quickly.
  12. 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.
  13. This should only affect people that both have it enabled and use older viewers, yeah.
  14. I imagine creators that seriously sell things like I mentioned in my first post wouldn't spend much time on the forums for fear of heckling or worse.
  15. I've got a premium account and paid for a last name even though I had a perfectly serviceable one, and I pay extra for mainland to a company I badmouth all the time. They've got me hooked. The only thing I can say to that is that I think I'll take the advice that @Quartz Mole gave me and start reporting people that attempt to get my threads locked, just because they can't handle a smiley face avatar, apparently.
  16. That explains why a bunch of my servers started emailing me with errors last night.
  17. How dare you insinuate such a thing. The very thought is offensive!
  18. It's SL, things are always getting poked with... Oh, you said sticks.
  19. I was recently thinking about how easily people are manipulated and if there are SL specific examples. What are some ways you see people in SL easily manipulated? Products that people buy like security systems or inspection protection? Parcel or region bans for dubious reasons? Let's hear your examples!
  20. You ask that as if they haven't been successfully sued several times for their business decisions.
