Okay - still not in a code block tho.. Should be loading keys from a notecard into AvKeys, which is a list. Does it enter state running? Does it change colour to green? Am I supposed to guess what the error is? What're those three lines at the bottom? Are they part of the script? If so, they shouldn't be there. owner2 isn't defined. emailaddress1 isn't defined. Please respond to, or resolve, all bulletpoints. And provide more information on the error.

You're not giving me enough information to help. I've posted a clear example. The example in the Wiki works, provided:- You have the script placed within an object. You copy it word-for-word, and fully replace any existing code within a script. You have a notecard that contains information in the inventory of the object. Have you done all of these things, when testing the example? What 'failure' do you see? If there's a compilation error message, post it in full along with the code you're trying to use. Inside a code block, like this. I'll try again, but I don't know what sort of help you're expecting.

What don't you understand? Have you tried the example in your experiments? It does work. Please try to be more descriptive. I don't have any way to help answer vague responses.

I don't understand your use of code, but please contain it within a Code block next time. The button looks like </> in the editor. There's already an example of notecard reading in the Wiki:- http://wiki.secondlife.com/wiki/LlGetNotecardLine Hope this helps.

No problem. I've tried to include as many links as possible but... it sounds like - to get something like this going - you'll have to pick up quite a bit of new information. That might be prohibitive, if all you want to do is ask a few questions. Anyway, if you do make a request in the Wanted forum (or elsewhere, there are many professional scripters in-world), you may want to borrow the wording of the most suitable method from those that I listed. It may help narrow down your seach, and will give any prospective scripter an idea needs to be done by using relatable keywords. I'll include it again, and include the option for Google Docs. Method One: Web storage (best for large datasets, many questions or complex, multi-dimensional surveys) A scripted in-world object (probably a rezzed object, on land which you own)... that sends llHTTPRequests (linked previously)... to a webpage hosted on a webserver you control and trust... which sends form-input data to a database... which would then be exported to Excel. Method Two: Live storage (only for small datasets, simple or single questions) A scripted in-world object (definitely a rezzed object, on land which you own)... That records simple, identity-less data in stacks (e.g. votes for blue: 18, votes for red: 20)... And then outputs that data in CSV style in chat or via instant message, ready to be copy-pasted into Excel. Method Three: Online Redirect (as suggested by you) A scripted object (either given to inventory or rezzed on land which you own)... that sends clickable URLs to users... directing them to a Google Docs page set-up to take questionnaire information. Good luck!

This isn't a Second Life issue, it's a Copyright issue. There is no recourse to solve this issue in Second Life, as it will be a resident-to-resident dispute until one of you files a DMCA Notification. If you choose to persue this, you'll need real experience of copyright law (e.g. from a solicitor or business advisor), and not the help of volunteer helpers on a forum. Good luck.

Running short on time now, so I'll just say that maybe the Wanted forum would be a better place to ask for something like this. The LSL Scripting forum is typically the place to go if you're looking to write your own code. If you're not familiar with HTTP or LSL then maybe finding a pre-made solution where you can just enter the questions and receive the results would be more suitable. I imagine engines such as this exist, like you've already mentioned it's possible to use Google Docs for this application (though i can't speak for its confidentiality, I'd expect it to be low, because it's Google).

VonNixon wrote: Ok. So if I understand you correctly. I create an object to rez in world, that has a script for a IIHTPPRequest, so that when someone clicks on it, it would send them to say a google forms survey that they could fill out. Hm, no, although that is also possible. I didn't describe that method because you stated "survey that they could take in-world". llHTTPRequests send information to webpages as form data using a HTTP method. Something like... http://youtube.com/watch?v=123 Sends the variable 'v' with result '123' to the webpage 'watch', hosted at youtube.com. This matches the method POST in the link above. A HTTP request model looks like this (although in my description, step 4 would store the data in a database and transmit very little to the client.) This is the exact same path that a web browser goes through to show you a webpage.  Reconstructing that process yourself would allow you to send survey results from an in-world data collection mechanism (multiple choice would use llDialog, open questions might use listen or llTextBox) and send that data across to a webpage - and then to a database for storage.

That is interesting because it is exactly the opposite to how I see it. Starting a question without any previously established context with a "so" almost automatically turns it into a rhetorical one and rhetorical questions are definitely power language. They're one of the oldest manipulation tricks in the book. Right, exactly. I think we're actually agreeing - I'll rephrase. My mistake was using equal-footed, when I should have emphasised more equal than older methods. Power language escapes the worry of appearing to be weak and needing help. It says "maybe you agree that this is a problem" rather than "maybe you could help me". It allows folks to ask questions without losing or risking ego status or knowledge levels. It's probably used reflexively online (in response to folks being told - or worried about being told - they're idiots for asking simple questions). Now that words live forever, ego and perception of knowledge/maturity is a lot more important to people in the SocMed age than it used to be.

Tehehee, worry not. I mention the names (e.g. CSV, Comma-Separated Values) in case any were familiar. I'm afraid data management is my day job, I am an incorrigible nerd. I'll try and find some good code examples, but essentially you'll probably want:- Method One: Web storage (best for large datasets, many questions or complex, multi-dimensional surveys) A scripted in-world object (probably a rezzed object, on land which you own)... that sends llHTTPRequests (linked previously)... to a webpage hosted on a webserver you control and trust... which sends form-input data to a database... which would then be exported to Excel. Method Two: Live storage (only for small datasets, simple or single questions) A scripted in-world object (definitely a rezzed object, on land which you own)... That records simple, identity-less data in stacks (e.g. votes for blue: 18, votes for red: 20)... And then outputs that data in CSV style in chat or via instant message, ready to be copy-pasted into Excel. Like I say the easy bit is getting data OUT from whatever system you use, and getting it into Excel (tutorial #2). Excel is super-capable. If it's possible for you to more clearly identify your needs (and the method you'd prefer), I'll look to finding suitable tutorials.

Yes. Excel supports CSV, and can even handle ODBC imports. Second Life scripts (LSL) has support for ODBC by virtue of its capability to transmit outwards via llHTTPRequest (and some other, less common methods involving XML-RPC). Exporting to CSV or other format would be doable from a SQL manager, CMS or other data-handling interface. Trick is to put it into a common language/format. You could do it even more simply (results to offline IM?) but that strikes me as messy. Worth noting also that Second Life has an anti-spam policy in Community Standards. Adverts and unsolicited requests for information as people expect to be left alone may get you into trouble. Not sure of your level of expertise, but hope this helps!

ChinRey wrote: And that means it's perfectly ok to start a sentence with a conjunction now? Yes. Unless you're in a country where language is more strongly policed (like France!). I don't really perceive it in the same way as you seem to. If someone starts off a chat with "So last night I went and did x, then y." or "So I can't figure out how to do z." I'll assume that it's because they want to pass on information but without pretext to creating a conversation. It skips the preamble, the how-do-you-do's, and gets right into the meat of the topic. I don't read it as dismissive of rebuttal in and of itself. It's also used in questions, like in this thread's title (proliferation here seems most obvious, as it sounds more equal-footed than Why, How, Where - which often sounds more parent/child or teacher/student) . You're right that it's often used in blog/news headlines - from my angle Gawker, Vice Media* and Condé Nast are more to blame than Zuckerberg. Reason for that, I think, is that it reads forcefully (so, listen, I've got something to say...) without as much aggression as the older, more easily-read-as-clickbait approach (here's what I learned from... or find out what happened when...). *Mentioned because they were the last folks I had this conversation with, funnily enough!

Language changes. Have observed (and perpetuated) it for a few years. I guess SL's onlya few years behind the trend. Not bad! This article seems to blame the RuckZuck for it, but I don't credit that with much. http://www.businessinsider.com/heres-why-everyone-is-starting-sentences-with-the-word-so-2014-5

Haha, I like your style (if not your spelling). I only hope your willpower stands up against LL, who are pretty old-fashioned. Anyway, to answer your question - you recieve your first stipend payment after having been Premium for 45 days. Thanks to Rolig to pointing out the flaw in my answer here! Must'a missed some sleep.

I'm not a Sir, but you might find some hope by following this guide:- http://wiki.phoenixviewer.com/fs_bake_fail It's usually an issue with something you're wearing.

A close friend of mine, Shigeko Tachikawa, makes prosthetics of various shapes and styles. They may be best-suited for female shapes (or universal). She has a Marketplace store and an in-world location.

If you want to play apologist, you're going to have to do it by defending mesh as a whole, not just the small bits that work and look good for you. Most Second Life users don't own land, so are unlikely to have much furniture, trees, landscaping - and these are likely to be the minority of assets when compared against attachments. Clothes and fashion crossover with People (the forum you're in) significantly more than rezzables. To review your earlier answer, have you ever seen any poorly made (your words were 'crappy') mesh clothes? Or, are you willing to accept that maybe - just maybe - you're beginning to see the folly of your position?

Cool. I was testing whether or not you were a linkspam bot. Figured you were just plugging that blog. I don't think you're likely to find anyone interested in helping you develop or design a real-life LED pub sign in a forum discussing Second Life People. Seems a bit left-field to me. You might find some benefit in reading the Community Guidelines, which explain what each forum is typically used for. Not offended, you've answered my query. Bye.

Heh, wrong forum. Response emptied.

You can customise some Privacy options for your Web Profile at: https://my.secondlife.com/settings/privacy Note that this doesn't work for all viewers, and there are still ways of getting accurate profile data. Note also that this doesn't work for online status, payment status, or other values used in LSL. TL;DR therefore, you can't keep anyone from seeing your profile if they're in-world. A workable - though frustrating - answer is to remove awkward content from your profile. I don't know what "is they have it through "note cards" in their profile" means. Correct the wording of this line and be more specific, if you need further advice.

Linkspam in 3.. 2..

You do - and you're the only one who can find out. Check your L$ Transaction History at: https://accounts.secondlife.com/transaction_history/

o_o Ok. What does any of that have to do with SL? And why is it in the People forum?
