Does anyone know what this is about? New profile buttons.

Kick
Freeze
Unfreeze
CSR

CSR opens to a customer service log-in page.

Is this part of 2.0?

You've gone into View admin options (Advanced menu). You can click those buttons but they won't work.

Advanced / View Admin Options

You too can have imaginary powers :) --- unless you are in a place where you actually are god/dess

Unless you are on your own land, IIRC and have those powers anyway ;)

So, land owners can use some of those buttons?

Land owners already have Kick, Freeze and Unfreeze on their own land. I haven't ried using the buttons for them though. Did you manage to get a page opened with the CSR button? I failed at it.

"Find on map" is a normal button in the profile box, but it's disabled if the person hasn't allowed it. That button becomes enabled when View Admin Options is checked, but it doesn't work either.

The ability to go into flight in a no-fly zone is about the only useful extra thing that we get from Advanced / View Admin Options. All the rest is just teasing us.

There are at least a couple others that I use occasionally:

The Profile's "Offer Teleport..." is never greyed-out whether the target is online or not. This isn't useful when they're not online, of course, but I sometimes get IM'd: "TP me" by people whose teleport button is disabled (I think because their online status is hidden). With Admin Options, I can comply without having to stop and explain all that.

In Group Information windows, the "Land & L$" tab has the tier contribution numbers filled-in for any group. This has been handy for finding adfarmers who weren't fulfillng their tier obligations, and land owned by defunct groups.

The Build button will also always be enabled which is very useful on group land where "Create Objects" is unchecked but you still have the "Always allow create objects" group privilege which means you don't need the group tag active to be able to rez (but the viewer will disable "Build" in that case without "View Admin Options" checked).

That will be very useful. I sometimes need to TP someone who only allows friends to do it, and I've had to explain to them where to change that option. It happened again yesterday. I wish I'd know that.
