Conifer Dada Posted March 29, 2015 Share Posted March 29, 2015 I came across a shop not far from my home that sells avatar stuff - skins, hair etc. The strange thing is that this shop is 'no public access' - only the owners are allowed on the land. It has been like this for quite a while, ever since it was built.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ChinRey Posted March 29, 2015 Share Posted March 29, 2015 I love very strange shops but only if I can go shopping in them of course - or at least go window shopping. The most likely explanation in this case is that the owners have messed up the parcel settings. The same happened to a friend of mine. She couldn't understand why she never got any customers until I tried to visit her store and discovered I couldn't. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nomnom88 Posted March 29, 2015 Share Posted March 29, 2015 Very strange shop indeed, maybe they haven't grasped the whole shop concept? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you know how much trouble those customers can be? You can't really run a proper store with them hanging around! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Amethyst Jetaime Posted March 30, 2015 Share Posted March 30, 2015 Maybe they are setting up and not ready to open yet, or if they have been there a while, remodeling. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Conifer Dada Posted March 31, 2015 Author Share Posted March 31, 2015 The shop in question is basic in design and looks to be complete, with all the products arranged along the walls. It's been the same for many weeks. There's no apparent reason why potential customers need to be kept away. Presumably it's possible to stand on land next to the shop, cam in, and buy the products anyway! I'd go with the theory that the owners have simply forgotten to change the access permissions for the land. Perhaps I should remind them:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Markham Weatherwax Posted March 31, 2015 Share Posted March 31, 2015 Yes, perhaps you should FYI them. I run into it all the time where someone has marked the land Public Access but also checked Group Access. Some folks don't understand that if you do group access it overrides public access. I guess some people just forget, but others just won't read instructions. Just recently I FYIed two large land owners who are selling their properties that no one could actually get on the property because they had the group access checked along with public. These folks are long time SLers so I assume they forgot what these two functions do because they went so many years with just group access. It happens. It happens more to newer people, though.

Shadowfox394 Posted March 31, 2015 Share Posted March 31, 2015 This makes complete sense unless they abandoned it but yeah it could be worse they could be scamming people which is what other Second Life users should look into. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
