i just read this thread: /117/47/245114/1.html

it looks like its deleated now because i can't veiw it anymore. was basically a link to this place called Orange Beach Mall at Zoha Islands. the thread said free avatar so i thought why not..

.. i get there, and i'm wearing a dick, a halo and some sphere... eh??!! i didn't even know i had any of that stuff.. did they give it to me or what?

also, waiting for the signs to load, i noticed that somehow i was wearing a new folder of clothes!! i wasn't aware any script could do that either. is there some object i should get rid of? have they "stolen" a copy of some of my things? should i check through all my inventory??

also, how do i recreate that automatic clothes changing thing because i actually have a need for that (that isn't greifing for once).

basically, should i be scared?

Lay down the pipe, you have had enough. Go get some fresh air and all will be OK.

Well I know that when you buy from a prim it gives you the option to wear clothes immediately. I also know that you can set a prim to open up a sell window automatically when you left click on it. But you have to allow these things to happen. If any script tries to give you something or tries to attach something to you it has to get permission first. I've never seen an involuntary one that you describe. I went to that mall and nothing weird happened.

the prim attachments could easily be a follower script used for griefing, (and you could easily tell by removing all attachments, if it doesn't go away obviosly it's not attached) as for the clothes... I've only had one instance long ago of a sim painting someelse shirt on my av, and not everyone saw it, a rebake fixed it....

the buy and wear thing is possible, but you would have had to ok the buy window and I think you'd have noticed that

err, thanks, yeah that was very helpful.

no window came up asking for my permission, but it has happened before when an object should have asked but didn't and went along and did whatever to me anyway. at first i thought they were followers but when i moved about to check they stayed at exactly the same places, and i don't think followers can do that.. i was also able to detach them..

.. do u think its possible thatin the lagstorm my client or the server just got confused and equipped some of my invent by itself?

someone controlling me???
