House of Blade is Now open! BUT...

Due to the fact that one person kept returning in an alts with no info on file to harass me only because our new battlegrounds rules are those with no info on file payment status are not allowed in, there is too many shooters that come in and interupt the games. He finds this very unfair. Though the paying members its totally fair to harass us.

Then proceeded to steal our Building textures admiting it to me because I would not give it to him openly.

So for now we just wont allow any potential alts on the islands. Sorry but I feel that if hey no info on file how are they buying all these things in second life like skins and furry avatars? hmm.....I think it is unfair to our regular loyal customers of the last 2 years with House of Blade Mall to be harassed any longer. Please come shop in peace at our newly remodeled sim.

Until Linden Lab deals with this MAJOR ISSUE.... we are left with no choice but to protect our paying customers and merchants.

after having a long conversation with my group I have decided this only to be temporary. Until all my merchants are settled in completely we are going to continue the limited acess to the sims. I would like them to be able to set up in peace. My thoughts on these issues still stand strong. Linden Lab needs to stop the problems we are having and fast.

We don't deserve to have to pay when a griefer can just make a new name and pay nothing. Maybe limit how many anonymous names can be made per IP. now there is a thought.

-grrowls-..i hate people who ruin good things like sl. i come from another online community. and "griefers" are just so irritating. Too bad the solution isnt lots of security..but you shouldnt even have to do that.

its such a shame that people who are trying to help the community out have to deal with such griefing. All you folks who have to deal with this stuff are getting a raw deal and its bad.

Ban by IP would be great. If say we have banned a person, all coming from that IP no longer have access. Would that work?

Unfortunately there are several methods of circumnavigating an IP ban. Most of them are easy enough to find via Google.

it would be a start at leat, we don't even neeed to see the ip addy.

or limit 1 anonymous name per comp verifying by eather card. at least if they want to come back they have to spend 20 bucks for every new card just to grief.
LL can't say they can't do this because they do it now I know it for a fact because a friend of mine was unfairly banned and tried to make a new free name and cna't. awful how a good person gets banned by their comp but these nuts run arround making new name ater new name after new names.

they need to impliment it into the land system some how.
