Daltrey, you've got to stop starting a new thread for your every comment on this situation. They consider that spamming the forums; they want to keep topics pretty much contained within one thread, for the most part. Jeska just went to a lot of trouble to gather together some of all these threads, so next time you want to post some pictures or make a comment on this situation, do it in one of the already existing threads about it.

Dude. Seriously.

Enough threads on this subject. Didn't you promise us you would leave?

Seems to me the one he put next to your window constitutes harassment. Abuse report it.

I'm not about to report him, he is apparently new and can't believe this is going on. (I can't believe it either.) He just needs to know not to create all these threads.

What's the difference between the OP starting numerous threads about this topic and the Linden-defended behavior of the maker of those signs!?

The forums are not his land. They're a common area.

There is no difference in that they are both spam.

In the O.P.'s case here, he may not intend them as spam, and may not know not to post so many threads, but in the Divine case, they are very much intended to be in our face and to annoy us until we buy him off. (Don't do that.)

It is understandable if people are upset about wasting money on land in Second Life.

The easy way to deal with the problem is to rent land. Dreamland, Ravenglass, and Azure are three land rental services I can remember the names of at the moment. The in-world classifieds and the forum classifieds should help to find land for rent.
Live Help has a notecard on land rental, just tell them you want a copy. If they don't give you one, ask me and I will. I have already posted this card in another thread.

Another way to deal with it is to find people to work with, to buy land adjacent to each other and either create a group in-world to serve to protect the view or make outside arrangements on how to react when someone in the agreement group needs to sell some of their land.

You may well need to kiss a particular parcel you already have purchased goodbye and take a loss on selling it.

If you can find a suitable place to rent land at you can probably end up saving money on the deal in the long run.

There is a forum for posts that consist primarily of pictures, the Gallery forum.

I have created a thread with pictures of Lazarus Divine's avatar and some of his property.
Anyone wishing to post pictures of the aggravating signs is more than welcome to post in that thread. Please don't use that thread or any thread to engage in personal attacks regardless of how aggravating you might find your situation to be.

There is a group called the Anti Lazarus Divine group that is just short of having enough people in it to get a group forum created for purposes of discussing the sign problem.

That group's name is badly chosen, but surely there are enough people upset about the problem to get 20 people to join and request a group forum be created. I would be glad to join such a group if it would help to free up the General forum for other matters.

If such a group as formed, with a broad and inclusive name and charter, perhaps the moderator would move subsequent threads on that topic placed in general to that group's forum if people use the bad post icon to request it.
