Not that I know of. I've never reported one but I assume people use the in world abuse report.

Yes, the red triangle with the "!" in it under the person's name and profile.

It's also a good place to suggest that a thread belongs in another forum.

The little red and white warning button in the bottom left hand side of the post you want to report.

Although there don't seem to be any mods on, either on the forums or inworld. :(

I was wondering that. I thought there use to be a "report this post" link near all the posts at one time.

FYI

Response from Robin regarding alt-abuse:

/invalid_link.html

From: Me
If you folks have suspended / banned a player for actions in a forum, and that person comes on an alt and makes no objection when pointed out that they are the same person, can't we suspend / ban that alt? I mean, it's different if the alt at least has another persona, but I'm talking about the same person using the forum pulling the same crap.

From: Robin Linden
If the alt violates the forum guidelines we will accelerate the process for removing them from the forums.

That seems like a completely reasonable way to deal with the problem.

Not sure - But I know of a few easy ways to get one shut down :)

I'm sorta like that with sims too - I can't find an easy way to get a Linden to come look - but you know first hand I can make one reboot pretty fast :)

Siggy.

what are the forum violations?

Rebutting the slander that dozens of players have been circulating? Yes, Chip, dozens. And here on the forums, yes, yes.

In threads that are removed, and threads that aren't removed, a mixture of RL info and libelous fabrications.

There's no other way to clear your good name. So I've done so. The worst that can be said about the thread was that it is off topic. Its not violation, however.

haha Hiro mentions alt abuse and *we all* should be ashamed of ourselves :)

Cute!

And if anyone wants to report a thread they don't have to clear it with anyone first.

Not to mention that no specifics were given , not even IF there was one they wanted to report - just asking on info on HOW to report one (I guess if they were so inclined).

Happy happy hijack!

Siggy.

I'm not so sure, Siggy. Speak for yourself. I've posted as an alt exactly twice.

There's no other way to clear your good name.


Clearing your good name requires having one in the first place. Bit of a prerequisite there.

I don't keep a self abuse log or an alt abuse log. If I were too, it'd be longer than War & Peace and the OED combined.

Excuse me, Chip and Lector, you're still failing to get it.

I do have a good name. I have one in RL and I have one here. You may dispute that I have one here. But you can't dispute that I have on in RL.

Merwan claimed in a post in which he wrote "Dear Prokofy" that he had a RL news article that said that person, who he said had an av in SL, had committed a crime -- we know the crime was plagiary from other libel that Cienna Samiam circulated based on the same googled link.

There's no way he can claim that he didn't mean it to be me in that RL article when he wrote "Dear Prokofy".

They googled, they witch-hunted, but they got the wrong RL person. It's not me.

So sure, I am going to clear my good name of the charges of "committing a RL crime" which Merwan claims he has in a "RL news article". His "RL news article" isn't about my RL self.

As for SL and my alts, I will continue to fight back against the personal attacks that the mods let go by because those who indulge them are members of the Feted Inner Core.

I've not done any violation of the TOS and the continued reaching for the panic button merely exposes you, not me.
