CODE

   {
      llOwnerSay("Your key is " + (string)llGetOwner());
   }
}

I am at work ATM, but if no one sends you a tol in 30 minutes, I will give you a copy of what I have. Just click it and it tells you a few things about yourself including your key.

Hey Rioko!

Another way to find a key is to use the new Search, which exposes results to the web. You can search it directly with some tedious syntax, but actually I use Tateru Nino's little front end for it:

http://taterunino.net/searchform.html

Just select "People" and type in a name. The key at the bottom of the Top Picks section of the profile.

If the person has opted out of search, then the w-hat site given above should have them, and of course using the script always works :)

LOL. Sorry,I didn't realize it was a typo. I thought it was an abbreviation for something.:o Thank you!


Thanks to you too Nika and Velda!!:)

I have another stupid question,but don't really want to make a new thread for it.(I feel like a PITA if I start making too many threads in one day.) Say you are renting out part of your land,is there anyway to automatically enforce the prim limit?(when you are using same land for something else.) Is that even possible? or does the land have to be on another parcel?

To *enforce* it, yeah, it has to be a separate parcel (easy enough to make, unless the rentals are stacked vertically). Within a parcel, though, given a list of avatars and their prim limits, a script can *detect* if they're over their limit, and issue a warning to them. (The relevant function is called llGetParcelPrimCount(), which pretty much has to be owned by the parcel owner-- if group-owned land, deeded to the group--in order to work reliably.)

Ah okay,but there is no actual way to *stop* them from doing it though,right? I have a script. I just wanted to make it impossible. :o Thank you for your help.:)

it's possible, but messy...

IIRC new search will still return even a blocked persons key, just not their profile, using the syntax
intitle:"av name"

Make as many threads as you need.
Some people will see the question, open the thread, see that it has been answered and move on to the next thread. If you later ask another question in the same thread many people will not know because they see the original thread on the forums an believe it has already been answered.
