Can I still post here.....Property Question

I've owned land for a bit now and rezzed a house on it etc. I know without Security orbs that people can appear in your house and all that (although I do have a Pit Bull that is going to do security duty!) What I'm wondering is, I had a chick suddenly appear in my "master suite" as I call it, upstairs today. First time that it's happend while I've been there. My question is, unless she has been given a tp point to land in my "upstairs bedroom" wouldn't she have had to come in the front door and gone up the stairs? If no thats cool, but thats what I would have thought? Thanks.

I don't think it would have had to have been a TP point. If she had been in Fly mode, up a certain height, then clicked on the map at the point your house happened to be, then she could well have ended up on the second floor of your house.

It's a new benefit being offered by LL for those who buy land and build houses.

Pep (Was she Mexican? Did she look like a maid?)

Hmmm Whatever, I can't seem to fly through my own windows, but if other people can, props to them I guess, just stay out of my house lol. I have no idea if she was a maid or Mexican, or what difference that would have made anyway? Thanks for answering though.

Avalyn, all she had to do was see something in your suite and sit on it. Avatars can cam in to see things many, many meters away, up to 4 sims away if using the Emerald viewer.

There is no such thing as privacy, and locks/doors/tints mean nothing to the voyeur. The only that that stops people is buying your own island limiting access to certain people.

she could of logged off in your bedroom, and when she logged back on she would appear there again (if she has login at last location turned on)

Ok Gotcha.......I guess I was being a little naive about it, thank you for your answers

What Ponsonby meant is that she may have been in the air when she TPed from the map. On the map she would have coincidentally chosen the X and Y coordinates of your master suite and her height in the air would have been the height of your master suite. In those circumstanmces, she would have arrived hovering in the air.

On the other hand, she may have been there before, and maybe 'played' with a friend or client in your master suite, and she was popping back, perhaps to see if the coast was clear before her friend/client came. Or she may have thought that it was the cheapskate friend's place.

With Emerald you can double click teleport anywhere. That won't work if landing point is set though.

That's right (and your version was much more clear. ^_^)

This is something that has happened to me...accidentally materializing inside someone's build.

As long as you didn't accidentally materialise underneath the owner, it was probably ok - or not lol

That hasn't happened yet....only the more common Newbie faux pas of forgetting to move away from a TP point. An avatar I'd recently met and was becoming somewhat friendly with materialized with my head under her skirt. As neither of us could claim lesbian status (or so I surmise), it was an uncomfortable moment, and we didn't stay in touch. (Figuratively OR literally.)

Since we always materialize in upright position,* the 'materialize under someone' could happen only if the Someone had set up their home sideways. (Which is an interesting idea, come to think of it...)





*or do we?
