Reasoning: The removal of PvP from the client, while reducing Abuse Reports, also takes away what little capacity we had to know who's attacking us. So I propose the addition of a Push Event to the scripting engine. This function would trigger on llPushObject events, and return the key of the pushing task. With detection functions for push strength, vector, etc.

Example:

CODE

push_start(integer pushnum)
 {if(llDetectedVector(0) > 50){key pusher = llDetectedOwner(0);
 llOwnerSay(llKey2Name(pusher) + " has pushed you.");
 llMaim(pusher,MAIM_A_WHOLE_LOT);}}

*Note: llMaim is not a real function. This is a lame script example and may not compile.
For some reason I can submit a proposal, I have three votes remaining but geta blank screen.

I think just "push" would work. Since llPushObject is just a one-time thing, there's no need to follow the foo_start, foo, and foo_end nomeclature.

That said, I JUST finished posting an idea about this to a comment in Torley's blog. If you put a proposal in the feature voting tool, I'll scrounge up some votes for it in a heartbeat!

I'll try posting again. It wasn't letting me earlier

According to information provided by both Data and Torley Linden the PVP reporting tool will be re-introduced to the client in a forthcoming update. I don't know exactly when that will be, as all we (Live Helpers) have been told soon.

[UPDATE]

From: Joshua Linden

Howdy!

We're planning to release Second Life version 1.11 on Wednesday July
12th, 2006 pending final verification of the changes. Second Life will
be unavailable from 7:00 AM to 12:00 PM PDT/SLT for the update. New
client software will be required to access 1.11.

We've had the Preview grid up and running early builds of 1.11 for over
a week now, but we encourage you to check it out yourself if you
haven't. Grab a Second Life viewer for the preview from:
http://secondlife.com/community/preview.php. (We also have a preview for
a forthcoming release tentatively numbered 1.12, but please try out 1.11
first.)

1.11 is planned to include:

* Zoomable UI (check out Preferences > Graphics > UI Size)
* Improved snapshot functionality
* Eyedropper tool for picking colors and textures
* Single-gesture pie menu (down, drag, up, instead of two clicks)
* Tear off menus
* Keyboard focus improvements
* Lots of bug fixes (my favorite: stars are back!)
* Added Help > Bumps, Pushes and Hits which shows recent actions
* Find renamed to Search; now defaults to searching all content types

Full release notes to follow just before the release.

Thanks everyone,

Joshua Bell a.k.a. Joshua Linden

Emphasis mine.

Cool, now how about "return to old loading texture for phantom textures"[1] so we're not stuck in solid grey walls when we teleport into a forest. It's made me mostly stop using Linden trees in my builds.

[1] phantom objects to include particle textures, phantom objects, flexible objects, linden trees, and avatar attachments.
