This story is a little tame compared to some of those.

I was in the process of building the latest incarnation of my Headquarters, when a guy dressed in black appeared and refusing to respond to my attempts at communication began shoving me off the top level of my structure.
As I was returning, I ejected him, only to watch him from a distance begin to come back.
So I decided I might try to play a bit, so I flew out to meet him.
Which gave me a thought to activate /flight fast on my Mulit-Gadget by Timeless Prototype.
By this time he was flying towards me at "his" full speed
hit me and went flying backwards quite a ways whereas my
AV was unaffected.
So I just floated there for a minute, while he acting like it must have been some anomaly tried again, only to bounce harmlessly off of me and send himself flying. hehe.
It was fitting that I was wearing my Superman T shirt at the time. As he we getting ready for another attempt, I gave the
command for the "god speed" on my multigadget, which
I think he heard cuz he then just disappeared.
it was actually sort of fun.;)
That time.

I can imagine it now. The warrior... versus the little furry rabbit.


Since the warrior cant carry a gun (assume it's Gorean), the little furry rabbit with the BFG 9000 would win by default.

Warrior vs Rabbit is actually a Monty Python reference. The rabbit did win =-)

I logged in one day to find a giant fox building a club (complete with lights and a dj booth) on my land. My first impulse was to just nuke him and return it all to him, but then an idea for some fun hit me.

I floated about 70 meters away and zoomed my POV in so I was right there with him. I watched as he spent several minutes rezzing a prim for the door, sizing it just right and then texturing it. Just as he was getting it just right, I right clicked on it and deleted it. He stood there for a moment, then started making another. As he was working on the new one, I selected a part of the wall next to it and deleted that. :) This went on for a while, me deleting bits and him putting them back, totally clueless as to what was going on.

I finally got bored with it and ejected/banned him and returned it all to him, but I had a good laugh for a few minutes.

That's funny. :)

(Although you really have to wonder what the heck the person is thinking, setting up a *club* of all things and starting to build in detail on someone elses land.)

There's a similar reason that I have my auto-return, when I use it, set to 20 minutes. It's because I figure that it gives just enough time for someone to set out stuff and start building, and get into it a bit, but not enough time to link it all before it suddenly returns to their inventory as a stack of individual prims, all named "object".

This was just a little while ago,

Many of us have noticed and have been annoyed by the recent increase in
garbage prims just left around all over the place. There are two large
wood spheres on my neighbors parcels that have been there for about a week.
Every time I see them I wonder what I can do about it.Anyway....

I was over at my friends place, she is a clothing designer. She had a
large semi transparent sphere sitting on her property. So as we were talking
she suddenly says help me pust this off my property. So we both started walking
against it, I had actually never thought of that. It seemed fairly futile at first.
But I was surprised that we actually did make some progress. Then I tried
the MG gadget trick was going to try to impact it flying at high speed.
But since it was sitting on the ground, I kept missing it and running into everything else.
Then my friend got out her push gun and blasted it right away.
Sorry I missed getting the pic. She was dressed in this ornate gown and high heel shoes, by the time she was blasting away at the sphere she had lost a shoe.
It was hilarious! But seriously it gave me an idea. Burke can I use your orbiter
to orbit garbage?

My sit-shield is invisible, and overrides my animations so it looks like I am standing up. I can even walk or fly normally. It also shrinks down to a very small prim when in use. So, unless you happened to catch me suddenly sitting down and then standing up you wouldn't even know I was wearing it.

Is this sit-shield for sale? I hate to strike back on people, so if their weapons just cant harm me, I can just ignore them...
Or is there a similar device for sale?

I heard the helicopter stutter and slowly descend with a sad little noise. I confess I laughed.


Helicopter vs Cat = No contest! ;)

May I confess something? This isn't quite the same thing but I once ported someone to me just a little distance away from Waterhead, where they were being less than nice in a helicopter. The person came to me. I heard the helicopter stutter and slowly descend with a sad little noise. I confess I laughed.


People need to start scripting planes so when they lose their pilot, they fall to the ground in a spin and crash exploding while unlinking and shatering everywhere ( and become temp on rez of course. I sure don't wana clean that up. :) ).
