He was remarkably inneffective. i do admire the way LL provided the surname Vendetta so that they would be really easy to spot.

I had my first griefer too. ^_^
I do wish I could ban by group name.
This banning thing should be made a bit easier.

Hmm Griefers would just join your favorite groups then and wear their tags before launching attacks :/
Bingo, You've banned yourself :)

I'm not talking about the land settings already in use. (restrict land access only to one group. AKA: Group Whitelisting) I'm talking on land parcel settings where you should define more than just the individual person, but the group they are in (Group Blacklisting). If that person was in the group say Patriotic Nigras, that person should be banned from my land, no matter what group tag they are wearing because I banned the group Patriotic Nigras on my land.

I'd be soo glad if that feature came out. wouldn't you?

Hmm I guess so as long as a few griefers didn't convince some rednecks in SL to ban all members by raiding whilst wearing NCI students or the Forum Cartel tags.

That won't work because it's a long standing tactic of 4chan (from which the "Patriotic Nigras" hail) to pretend to be part of another group. You'll see them wearing "Ebaums" group tags more often than anything. If group blacklist was available and people went crazy with it, griefers would join furry groups before beginning. Besides, a griefer's account is either created on the same day, or has broken down and started attacking people for the first time ever. There's no reason for a throw-away account to join any groups other than the possibility of making a group look bad.

Good point. The group blacklist feature sounded good at first glance, but think of the unintended consequences. There are many free-to-join groups that might become innocent victims of a blacklist if they were co-opted by griefers for a day. Blacklist instigation would become an additional tool for griefing.
