I posted a thread just now about creating a new character... but then something else came to my attention... the idea of being able to show yourself as offline, and not detectable in a search.

I think this would be a really useful feature to avoid stalkers and crazy nuts who just repeatedly track you down and create aggrovation..

There seems to be ALOT of posts on this forum from people who want the same kind of flexibility in their profiles... I just don't want people to be able to see if i'm online all the time, and i don't want to be 'found' and have someone TP to me without being invited... it really is a pain in the arse!!!

I would very much like to have a check-box in my profile that hides me from searches and shows me offline if i choose.

If i was in a more sociable mood then obviously i could leave the checkbox un-ticked, and anyone could TP or find me to their hearts content.

In real life i don't have a big green dot over my head saying "JIMMY IS HERE!!!!"

Then again, in real life i don't see furry people walking around...

Ho Hum... PLEASE listen to your subscribers Linden Labs, and provide us with this SIMPLE feature... I don't want to be seen or found!

Thanks.

I have counted no less than two dozen separate occasions this has come up, Jimmy! And more to come, I'm sure.

You will want to do some searches of the SL Forums and SL Answers for further details... for example, this:

/139/b3/93634/1.html

May it guide you well in your quest.
