well a while back i became aware that some crafty sl scripter had invented a tiny detector. this scripter would use the detector to selectively abuse tiny avatars. this was quite funny, but to be politically correct i must agree that this is very impolite and racist behaviour.

well more recently i came across a player who shall remain protected by the naming names policy who tried to sell me an anti furry device. apparently it detects furries, bans them from your land, detects their isp address, bans their alts, then communicates the information to a an external database and, hacking into LL's database using an automated bot script, it steals personal information including credit card. it then is sells all of that to an algerian identity theft scam which opens large lines of credit to fund hamas.

from what i understand the only defense is to hop like a dinosaur.

Does it also turn their monitor off, order them pizzas that they didn't want and pull their chair away when they try to sit down?

If this report was true why hasn't this been forwarded to LL? I mean not only does it selectively harass people wearing certain avatars but also steal personal information and sold of to some illegal recruiter?

I have an anti-furry device. It's a special stone you carry that ensures you never meet a furry. As evidence, friend and I have been testing this device for an extended periood of time and not once, ever, have any of us had an antropomorphic animal enter visual range. It's even safe for pets, as it does not affect regular animals!

I sell them for the low price of $19.95; IM me with shipping address and credit card details.

Or were you talking about furries in SL?

Jauani - must be a wind up

Jauani, you can't detect what AV a person is wearing, you can detect their height (for tinies) , but not their AV, hence there can't be a way to do what you were told.

unless I'm wrong, but don't think so...

Well the original post did say 'tiny avatars' In all honestly, I think the Tinies are a hell lot cuter than the the full size ones. They remind me of stuff toys

Yeah, llGetFurry was borked in the last update. However, llGetAttachmentType(key id, integer position) still works.

CODE

if (llGetAttachmentType(llDetectedKey(0), f) & (ATTACHMENT_TAIL | ATTACHMENT_EARS)) {
llShout(0, "FURRY!!!!!!! MAN THE BARRICADES!!!!!!!!!!!!!");
}


though I find that having an autogun firing when it detects ATTACHMENT_BLING is more useful.

i forwarded it to [email]support@secondlife.com[/email] but as usual no response. LL is notorious for not lifting a finger in player disputes! :mad:

First they allow goths, now they allow furries! Aren't they going to stomp on everyone's right to self-expression some time soon, before we develop vibrant and unique subcultures????

P.S: I hear in 1.9.1 permissions are bugged, and you can use llRemovePants(key target) without first requesting PERMISSION_STRIPNAKED from the avatar.

Naming names doesn't protect your obligation to now report it to Linden Lab, else you're what? Aiding and abetting a griefer?

Unless you hack a leg off. Or several legs if it's a quadruped. You gotta be inventive, Ingrid. There's ways to make a dinosaur hop if you're determined!
