I have a neigbor in Suisun who has put Hover Text on their huge rotating cube that busts through objects even 80m away! Inside my treehouse where I have an online indicator, it is only visible at less than 10m away and doesn't penetrate the outside wall (meaning I have to be inside the treehouse to see the text, if I fly outside the wall it is behind I see nothing). I don't know if this is a bug or a feature, but it sure is annoying seeing their text inside my house!

That sounds pretty odd, because hover text should fade out at longer distances--the usual case is to go to any freebie shoppe with boxes containing hover text atop them. Please email me with the coordinates of this happening, as well as pictures to show what you're seeing. I will have a look as soon as I can.

AHA! Found out what it was. Said rotating cube is a flexiprim (object with Flexible Path enabled). Appears to be a bug with hover text on larger flexiprims--it doesn't fade out when zoomed out on as expected. I've entered a solid repro in our database. Thanx for your observation, Clubside.
