While they're out there and love to cause trouble for other residents that old phrase comes to mind.

"I never thought it would happen to me."

I own a Raven, I fly it almost everywhere now since teleporting with my Adelphia connection results in 8 out of 10 teleports out into the middle of nowhere.

So to speed things up a bit as I cruise through the sims and keep lagging down I try to fly as high as possible, and only come in low to the ground near points of interest I want to check out or land. And up till recently my F9 key passes the command "eject copilot" to the chat window and ejects the often unwanted co-pilot.

One particulary grabby member decided to hold me in place for 15 seconds and then sat in my Raven where I was about to land.

F9 - eject copilot

3 minutes lapse from that pont while I recover from ghosting and re-rez the Raven to fly to my next destination.

"Ploonk" echoes my 18 year old Bose speakers and my screen turns gray to see a message saying an administrator has logged me out.

So I try to log back in to get the "Account Suspended until" message.

So here I sit with my plans for the night on hold, a victim of a greifer who didn't like the idea of the pilot wanting to be alone to get to her next destination without any additional lag.

I've never heard of the Lindens banning an acct within 3 minutes of whatever you did, I don't quite understand. It was probably from something else cuz if it was what you think it is, then the Lindens are really on the ball with abuse reports(I doubt if they respond in 3 min though). Sucks that happened to you if that's what really happened, hope it works out for the best.
