I am thoroughly confused. I just purchased some land, and immediately there was someone building a house on it. He initially claimed it was his land, but if I right-click the ground outside and choose "About Land...", it says it's mine. After he then refused to answer me for some time, I disabled object creation and returned his house. He then grew somewhat verbally abusive. I just want to confirm that I'm not misunderstanding something. If I right-click the land and it clearly says it belongs to me, is there any situation in which someone else should expect to be able to build a house there?
I've attached the conversation with names removed:
[9:40] You: Hello.
[9:40] X: hello
[9:40] X: did u knock
[9:40] You: Sorry. I thought I just bought this.
[9:40] X: no this is my part of land
[9:40] You: Oops, sorry!
[9:41] You: Are you sure? If I right-click the land, it says I'm the owner.
[9:41] X: ur
[9:42] X: you are
[9:44] You: Okay, so if I am the owner, why are you building a house here?
[9:44] X: cause i need 1
[9:44] You: On my land?
[9:45] X: i will pay
[9:45] You: I am not renting the land, though.
[9:45] X: so
[9:46] You: Perhaps you had better explain yourself.
[9:48] You: Do you intend to explain yourself?
[9:49] X: wow
[9:49] X: fuck u
[9:49] X: bitch
[9:49] X: i was going to give you 100 lindens

You did nothing wrong. It's your land. Ban and mute the rude person. Then change the settings in about land so people not in your group can't rezz objects there.

As the owner of the land you should also have banned him from the land and maybe even considered an Abuse Report for his behaviour.

Some people are really amazing. That's new. Right click him, eject from pie menu, eject and ban. That'll be a good way to learn how to use the access list.

You only did one thing wrong: you should have frozen him, decorated him with a prim turd, and then eject-ban him. There always will be weirdo's in SL, so don't worry

I'm still thinking that, under certain circumstances such as when people clearly wear an "I'm an idiot" label, orbiting should be allowed.
Would have loved to have seen this jerk disappear into the ether. _____________________

Never mind "disable object creation", it's a pity his parents didn't disable "spawn idiot son creation". The world still needs ditch diggers, Max. And Congressmen. I haven't encountered much of this, disaapointingly, but from reading some of your tales, I'm to the point o,f the glass on the box covering the Orbit Button is already broken, I am at Defcon 1. They want to ban me....Bring it on. It's worth the fun of giving dickheads like that their comeuppance. _____________________

If I right-click the land and it clearly says it belongs to me, is there any situation in which someone else should expect to be able to build a house there? Only in States controlled by Liberal Democrats.............  JOKING. Just joking..........................*mostly* _____________________

Some people are really amazing. That's new. Seriously. I mean, I've seen people start doing stuff on other people's land before (for some reason people love to use the land near Cheep Cheep Landing in Livingtree as a sandbox - even re-rezzing around the auto return), but the attitude an stuff is jes amazing. Drop kick 'em, ban 'em, an AR 'em. Mari _____________________

It would help if LL didn't turn on all permissions for land that goes through a sale.
It's idiotic. [Ban Line mention warning] When newbies buy land, they don't necessarily know that they should set land permissions to something sane. Then somebody craps all over their land. ZOMG! How do I stop this? Ban everyone!!! [/Ban Line mention warning] _____________________

But she was polite, and left after a few minutes. Yeah it was just amusing. Not quite crazy like the pantless masturbating guy on a flying cow that showed up at the beach house I was living in for a while. |
