LOL!

Not a very clever griefer, was he? :p
I never thought of it like that lol I assumed him being inside was intentional. But now that you mention it, I caged someone at Xcite once (he was being a pig to a girl who was with me) and I didn't end up inside the cage. I'm not used to these things, so maybe you are right, and he didn't intend caging himself as well :)

Both. Just depends on the individual.


Yeah, it does depend on the individuals. In each instance I"ve seen them, they've been RPing to the hilt. So I have a negative perception of them, like 'who do you think you are'? You have no rights here, get out. lol For example, the time they rezzed the police cars with lights and sirens, I IM'd one of them and asked what did he think he was doing? He said you're all deaf anyway on that sim you can't hear if there are sirens or not. The resident had annoyed them, elsewhere on the grid, and they 'followed' him home by reading his profile. There was no legitimate need for what they did, so yeah it was RP to them, and griefing to me. Screaming out with a bullhorn, you are under arrest, give me a break, lol. Attaching a tow truck to a person's house. lol ok, so that part was kinda funny. Stupid but funny.

morning.

4. Being shot at n non-combat situations and areas.

6. Being bumped by trollish, nude avatars in PG and/or infohub area.


I am fully prepared for number 4. Taken out by an assassians bullet is a neat way to leave sl foever.

I cant see the harm in number 6.
A be-donged nude troll sounds like fun on a stick.
Which infohub did you say this happened?
Hm?

A particle bomb that filled the sim with floating pictures of "tubgirl".

The Linden showed up to return the object was wearing a biohazard suit. :D

Six months later I got someone complaining that I was griefing them. Apparently someone standing on my parcel had taken a photo of the tubgirl bomb and started notecard-bombing people with it... and the description field of the photo still had my parcel name on it. :(

And the difference is . . . ?

Pep (You're not very good with words, are you.)
I'd edited my post at the same time posted yours. The edit does explain what use of words means. I am very good with words, Pep - it's just that you don't seem to want to understand them sometimes. Perhaps if you look at the edited version, you'll learn something that you were lacking before ;)

Thank you for the compliment

I wonder if I just post : "There goes the idiot" that you will feel yourself addressed, too?

Sounds like the Lindenville PD needs some sensitivity training, eh?

And this is pure harassment. Yeah, and griefing. Interesting: arguably, I suppose, involving someone else in your RP without her or his permission could, in some circs, constitute a form of griefing, as when someone "shoots" when you are clearly not "playing" or OOC.

Hal and I have seriously been targetted by neo-nazis in sl. I've had enough griefing in reality to know it hurts in sl.

On the first day of griefing, the griefers gave to me, spewing particles showing goatse.



On the second day of griefing, the griefers gave to me, Two Plastic Ducks!

On the third day of griefing, the griefers gave to me, three fast logouts.

On the fourth day of griefing, the griefers gave to me, four scamming noobs!

On the fifth day of griefing, the griefers gave to me, five ripped textures,

On the sixth day of griefing, the griefers gave to me, six a~laying in PG!

On the seventh day of griefing, the griefers gave to me, seven sims a~crashing,

On the eighth day of griefing, the griefers gave to me, eight maids a milking (don't ask)

On the ninth day of griefing, the griefers gave to me, nine freenises dancing,

On the tenth day of griefing, the griefers gave to me, ten vampires bite~ing!

On the eleventh day of griefing, the griefers gave to me, eleven ageplayer AR's!

And on the twelfth day of griefing... the griefers Rickrolled me!


* * * * *

Honestly I have been griefed only a few times in my SL history.

Once, Mystical Cookie set out a large red button in front of me labeled DO NOT PRESS knowing full well what I would eventually do.

Second, one of my estate managers wondered: hey, could I ban Desmond's well known alt Desmond Magic just to see what happens? I never knew what hit me. Was this mainland around me, and noobs at an infohub, and... why?

Third, I have been sexually harassed multiple times in these forums (I'm not telling if I loved every minute of it though).

Mostly they annoy me because so many people believe they are real, that there really is a 'SL Police Force', sanctioned and perhaps even employed by, LL. They are shocked to find out they're just an RP group and an annoying one at that.

YOU have not derailed the thread, Treasure. Sensible and level-headed talk doesn't have that effect. :)

The SL Police are role players, right? Do they actually think that they are doing real policing, or are they just playing cops and robbers wherever they feel like it?


The SL police make me feel paranoid.

and why dont you ever tell me that I have sensible and level headed thought???

I avoid the SL police.

No, no, do not ask these things. Trust me on this, you can't unsee that.

Edit: that was in reference to the tub thing.

The button orbitted me to a beeellion meters.

Well the spinning screaming things that send disgusting photos as particles through the grid I've encountered twice.

Excessive noise is another.

Tons of large plywood cubes littered.

Some kid griefed an event the other evening where they must have hacked an account to move objects around in front of the host.

I guess I've had it good?

I know people who have been griefed by fake police snooping around and intimidating shoppers in their mark's store. On mainland the only police are the Lindens. The fake police are definitely close cousins to the common griefer.

Can you imagine this trolly kinda avi, all humpity muscles and one great big wang chasing you through a sim. Super sexy! Like "woman wailing for her demon lover" as old Coleridge would say.

Yumpitty Yum!
Must go. The metting begins again.

Actually, this is an interesting point. The first time I ran across RPing cops, they were chatting outside a coffee house I frequented, and sounded quite convincing. I was reasonably new: it took me a while of eavesdropping before I realized that they were bogus.

Arguably, newbs COULD be taken in by them, just as they sometimes are by people impersonating Lindens.

Uhhhhhh . . .

Hang on. Give a bit of time to search through your past postings. I'm sure I can find SOMETHING in here . . .

:D

(Jig, you actually are pretty level headed: not much here seems to faze you, which I take to be a good thing!)

Heh. I made one like that, in 2005. Made me the first avatar over MAXINT meters, so far as I've been able to tell.

Of course Beatfox managed to beat my record by a factor of 1000 within a week, so it was fleeting fame.

If you don't know, don't google it.

Hmmm. From what Des says, above, "googling it" sounds somewhat akin to pressing the large red button . . .

I googled it; no pictures but the descriptions alone led me to believe they weren't links I wanted to click, from work. When I get home tonite though, I will have to clue myself into tubgirl.
