60 minutes - thats nearly enough time to rez a prefab and furnish it, put out some balls and get 'comfy'.
I'm evil.

In Thailand most of the toilets were 'squatters' rather than the western sit-down variety. I was there for 2 years, and never used a squatter. Always maintained I wouldn't 'stoop that low'.

What about large objects like a space ship that clip into your house and overlap your property but seem to be mostly on another person's property? Doesn't seem to respond to return object (or even register as being on my property, even though part of it is).

Doesn't seem to respond to return object (or even register as being on my property, even though part of it is). The trouble is, that if the center of an object isn't on your property, SL doesn't "see" it as being on your property, so you can't return it. None the less, it is against the TOS, so contact the Lindens and ask them to get rid of it if asking the neighbor themselves doesn't do it.

From: Baba Yamamoto There was once a newbie who set up a store on my land selling freebies. I let him stay for 2 weeks until he moved on to bigger and better things. I believe he's selling stolen textures now.. He's pulling himself up! Showing THE MAN who is boss! ;0 soon he will start hiring children to work in SL brothels.

Well, my neighbor showed up and, with a bit of coaching, has taken care of our overlapping space vehicle problem.  And I wound up getting to know my neighbor a bit.  I love the fact that this topic showed up just as I had some related problems and wound up making a new friend.

Good Neighbor Jack

Dearly Darling Jack,
I wish you had been my first neighbor in Tenjin! I had built a cute little park for everyone to visit on my first land. I asked my neighbor if I could build a little walk way from my property to the street...I only needed two prim. She promptly set ugly hugh prims in front of my park and sent hate mail to me accusing me of placing prims over her property line and spaming her. Live Help and the Lindens had to get involved. Very ugly. I sold the property to a nice man who helped me find my new home in Green.
Ever Yours,
Mrs. Showdog Tiger

Mrs. Showdog Tiger See, if someone had *asked* me, I probably would have said yes. I'd at least have been polite about it. As firm as I am about rights to my property in the forums, I'm actually pretty easy going and helpful in-world.
