    She confirmed the inactivity fee is monthly.

    That sucks but it will eat up the smaller balances quickly so those won't be sitting on the books at the end of the year and have to be written off as losses. Larger balances will take longer obviously and if it's a fair chunk of RL change, I doubt (short of death or serious illness) the resident would leave it to be slowly eaten away. 

    Not a great thing from a consumer's pov but definitely a good thing from an accounting and taxes pov.

    Thank you for the suggestion,  I'd say people also have the right to throw mud and try to bring down a talented artist, if that's their hobby, though I doubt they have a background in contemporary art. I personally play piano 😀. De gustibus non disputandum est. 

    I play both piano and guitar. 

    And the semester I took Latin was back in 1975 so I've forgotten more than I ever learned. lol

    NEW FIRESTORM UPDATE REMOVES IMPORTANT REGION OWNER/MANAGER RIGHTS

    Doesn’t that mess up some kinds of HUDS (such as used for mesh avatars), because the user won’t know which scripts to “re-enable”? It would be great if instead of “set to not running”, there was a way to treat an object (and its scripts) as if it’s in a “no script zone”.

    To my knowledge it only affects rezzed items, not HUDs or other worn scripted items. Otherwise your AO would stop working and they don't.

    Hey! Firestorm QA/Dev(but mostly QA) here!

    These buttons were removed because they had the ability to permanently break a resident's objects if it is no-mod. This was Linden Lab's decision, not ours. This change was merged in from the official Second Life viewer branch. See https://jira.secondlife.com/browse/SVC-4143 for more information on this.

    It was merged into the official viewer code at viewer-release/fe65bf3dd02e and was merged into Firestorm at phoenix-firestorm-lgpl/fe65bf3dd02e.

    These buttons may be added back in the future when LL fixes the issue. We'd fix it ourselves but we don't have access to the simulator code.

    A alternative solution that should work for right now is to just return the offending resident's objects, or if it is your object, to disable the scripts manually.

    Firestorm has the ability to bulk disable scripts in objects. To do this, open the build floater and select the object, then from the menu bar(at the top of the screen), go to "Build > Scripts > Set Scripts to Not Running".

    Sorry for any inconvenience that this may cause!

    Oh good. I don't need to page @Whirly Fizzle... or do I to back you up? I've been off the team too long.

    This again crappy politics, but their repercussions affect many. To keep it short and not offensive (dont quote me here!!)
    If Washington, as so often, has opted for madness again. Such wild-west methods are of course not popular in the civilized world . An expensive suit doesn't make a lady or a gentlemen. Things they think are legal are somewhere else even not. Or immoral transactions. And the other one comes back with the brainwash TV. funny
    You Americans are some of the worst informed societies. To stay in topic, I would not speak specific for the u.s. like something of a jurisdiction - probably rather small childrens who are constantly begging and think they are in the right. Always trying to go with the head thru the wall.... Don't believe everything stated in the main*****media and the mendacious press. You can't be helped, I'm getting upset now.
    To remember; 3/4 the worlds population resources and wealthy-ness are on the Eurasian continent, those who want to make business with them need to match their business model to. Otherwise customers run again away from you. Im off here

    Funny thing about all that... it all came to this continent from the one across the pond. It wasn't like that before the Europeans showed up.

    https://wiki.firestormviewer.org/firestorm_change_log_6.2.4.57588

    Removed “Disable Selected” and “Disable All” Buttons from Top Scripts
    World → Region Details (Region/Estate) → Debug → Top scripts
    Maxim ProductEngine FIXME - removed cos of https://jira.secondlife.com/browse/SVC-4143?

    So you are screaming at Firestorm for complying with LL's fixes? That's a waste of time and energy.  FS has to do what LL says to remain in compliance and available for use. You'd be better off filing an LL support ticket than screaming about it on the forum.

    I am VERY UPSET that Linden Lab has taken away sim owners/managers ability to disable scripts in objects through the Region / Get Top Scripts window.  Their reason is because no mod objects cannot have their scripts turned back on once deactivated in this way.  The solution to this problem is NOT TO REMOVE THE RIGHTS OF REGION OWNERS/MANAGERS but to ENABLE THE ABILITY TO 'RUN SCRIPTS' IN NO MOD OBJECTS!  Exceptions were made to the no modify permission to allow objects to be taken out of the inventory of objects (unboxing) and if the item taken out is no copy it is removed from the object inventory permanently with no way to put it back inside breaking the object, so why not make an exception for the 'run scripts' command?????  I use the disable scripts ability frequently in my region to deactivate all scripts (after picking up no mod objects) and then turning them back on as needed.  I call this nuking my region which needs to be done every so often since the region performance ends up in the toilet after time.  Why is it that I can restart my region and the spare time goes from 7.0 or 8.0 to .001?  Or from .001 to 4.0 or 5.0?  This with no changes to objects in the region for weeks and only myself present.  Is there some type of undisclosed 'load leveling' system that takes spare time from some regions and gives to others?  Would this explain the random 5 point drop/raise in spare time after sim restarts?  Who knows.  All I know for sure is that there is something screwy going on with the spare time in my region and probably others as well and this 'UPDATE' that REMOVES SOME RIGHTS OF SIM OWNERS/MANAGERS destroys my ability to diagnose and cure my region performance.

    Where is your evidence that LL has done such a thing? Where are all the irate landowners' threads screaming at FS for something LL is supposed to have done?

    Those seem to be if you are a submitting a general tax return as a worker etc., not a business tax return

    Most US SL residents are filing personal income tax returns, not for a business. Those that are filing for a business can take some of the same deductions depending on the domicile of the business. 

    Having been a full charge bookkeeper for an underground utility contractor for the municipalities of that state for 10 years, I am very familiar with the US tax laws.

    how did you learn there were discussion forums?

    Forum software went through two massive changes along the way.

    There has been three really. There was the first change from the "old" software in the very early days and then the two you mention. Not many noticed the very first change because there weren't that many posting and the vast majority of those that did are long gone.
