I think it would be nice if prameters like a grid elevation map could be published by LL at intervals, sort of like how the USGS publishes LANDSAT maps. It would be one less reason to have to deploy a grid scanning network like this.

Send a few of these to me when they are ready Tcoz. I'll help you test them.


Why would you need one, when you already use lbv2?

Broadly, we need to have systems that fairly allocate resources in a sim to the landowners that are there. Certainly it is NOT ok to 'borrow' sim resources without asking - but what is the right policy or technology to enforce this? Thought welcome..


Now you what yet ANOTHER scanner system, to even further jam up the grid? One system in every sim is not enough for you Schwanson? You sir, are in for a revelation.

I have already told you that I have nothing to do w/ these objects.

You do have me curious though, what is this revelation I am in for?

your evidence isn't very compelling.

You are not telling the whole story. Pete Fats takes the heat while you collect data via a third party source. You don't fool me for one second Schwanson.

The Lindens are investigating this matter. They will take appropriate action.

Not per say, but I have to agree with Stoneself... Your evidence isn't very compelling at this point, I'm one of the most vocal opponents of Pete's scanning network, but I've got no conclusive evidence to link it to anyone but Pete.

But even if Shwan /is/ landscanning... that part isn't against the ToS. I may not like land scanning, but the lindens have repeatedly stated that not only is it not against the ToS, they deliberatly don't want it to be.

Provided it's done within the rules, of course.

Schwanson continues to side-step my questions to him. I will ask again.

Schwanson, where do you get your information on released land?

He grabs released land from multiple sims where he owns no land. I'm still waiting for your answer Schwanson.

Apparently not.

Your going to demand answers from me now? Perhaps a polygraph?

You think you know something, I'm proud of you.
The reality is you don't know shit.

I have no flying or hidden objects on anyone's land.
I do not buy data from another source.

All of this hysteria has helped me develop a new business idea. I think it will address most of your concerns. I will be able to announce in about 10 days. I think your gonna like this one....

:p :eek: :p :eek:

Not to be too anal, but, do you get the data for free / some other way?

Why do you ask?
If i am not using sim resources when I am not in a sim nor encouraging others to the same by paying them, I see no relevance in the question. Correct me if I am wrong.

Why can't you just answer my question?

Where do you get your information on released land?

History is written by the winners, and told to the losers.


Finally, we can agree on something.
Whew.

I have asked this question before. I have also received forthright answers.

Examples of some answers:

Answer- I wear a scanner. I cruise around in hopes of encountering released land.
Answer- I own land in the sim. I have a scanner there.
Answer- I buy 16m plots which host a script, which IM's me if land is released nearby.
Answer- I have permission to host a script by a land owner.

These are reasonable responses.

Y'ever think that maybe he's withholding that information not because it's shady, but rather because he doesn't want it to become public knowledge...?
