The Abuse Report, Reborn!

LOL! That would work! I've seen you guys at work on HI Public before. How does one join (so I don't have to sit filing AR's all by my lonesome..)?

IM me in-world and I'll direct you from there. I could offer a few names, but I'm not completely sure which ones of us are able to handle those requests right now. It's quite a time-consuming pasttime, being a member of the League, and it can keep you pretty busy, just so you know. It's darned near like a second job sometimes.

We have quite a backlog of applications we're working through at the moment, and our training program is still being expanded to handle the current spike in applications. Also, for anyone else reading this, note that not everyone is accepted, so if you don't make it in, please, no hard feelings?

Our first stop for the evening we used as a test case to see how fast the Lindens would respond via the new system - we filed four AR's. By AR number five, the perpetrator had already had his account suspended and the fifth AR could not be filed because the name couldn't be found in person search.

We usually don't see these kinds of results on the basis of a single AR, so there's a trigger threshold in there someplace.

It would make sense to be able to file an abuse report even though the name of the attacker cannot be found for this reason. Without the name of the attacker, it becomes a big issue to get the annoying prims / sounds / scripts deleted. The abuse report should also have a check box requesting Lindens needed to delete objects. Most abuse I have encountered have been through being unable to remove the annoying prims, apart from the many caging / orbiting encounters when doing my Help People role, that seem to make me an open target for griefers.

I have found Lucy to always be very helpful and have never had any reason to doubt her level of knowledge.

My personal experience with Lucy Linden has been just the opposite; i've found her to be polite and sweet and knowledgeable.

Just my little two cents...

Hello if you want to report abuse and the abuser name cannot be found in the select list.
Mailto: [email]support@secondlife.com[/email] including all the information in the body of the email, this will ensure your ticket has gone to the que.

Include:
* Your own account name
* Abuser Name
* Location of Abuse
* Details: Please be specific about the date, location, nature of abuse, relevant chat/IM text, and name of the object if possible.

Thanks so much

I wish i was still in JLU, i really enjoyed it. :/ Sadly some false rumors from a abusive estate admin got me fired from it. I still do not know to this day what those rumors are, but i don't see much honor in acting upon something without knowing it either. I know i didn't do much for them, but it was fun being able to feel like i could make a difference. Just posting this as reference, i know kalel won't see it because he's muted me anyway. best of luck to him anyway.

A phrase springs to mind .. who polices the police?
Cheer up Yiffy .. we still luvs ya!

I'm fairly sure no one has taken this one yet. I'd love to see it.

Hang around the public sandboxes sometime, you'll likely see a couple Leaguers around soon enough.

I'm working on it! Can't decide if the red cape goes with my eyes...

Doesn't red go with pink?

Umm....no.

The starter of this topic is.



As you can see, kalel has already posted in this topic after both of us, yet has no reply about it, and hasn't even tried to contact me. It's obvious hes avoiding the issue just like angel fluffy did. Their both afraid to confront me for some reason. I've been doing investigations about this. I think their both acting like big babies honestly. I'm starting to think their not worth it. I know in my own Honer that I've done nothing wrong to deserve the crap they put me through. So IMO, what goes around comes around... They lost all my respect for them since they acted on rumors without asking me for the truth or even bringing it to my attention. I believe i deserve to know what I'm being accused of, and i think I've already figured out what their up to.

Hi, I have sponge bob squares screaming outside of my house and was told it was the work of Patriotic Nigras. Can someone tell me how to get rid of them? They are not on my property ..but just over the line and are driving me insane.

Thank you,
Candis

Try filing an abuse report on them, or, failing that, email [email]inworldsupport@secondlife.com[/email] giving the location of the screaming spongebob cubes, stating that they are outside of your house.

While you are waiting for those to take effect, right click the cube and find the 'mute' option in the pie menu. That *should* stop the sound effects.

While you are waiting for the Lindens to clear the problem, you can go into your land and in the world/about land menu, select the media tab. Check the box marked Restrict Spatialised sound to this parcel. That stops the sound penetrating into your land. At least it will give you and your visitors a bit of peace.

If you still have this problem today, contact me in-world and I can have a bunch of us AR the things all at once. That should help trigger some kind of response from the Linens.

thank you so much for your replies. i sent in the email and the lindens took care of it
now i dont have sponge bob boxes screaming at me outside of my house

Me too! Helpful AND polite. Solved my problem and was very nice.

I had another batch of the screaming cubes next to my land AGAIN!

I filed an abuse report, adding a note to please remove the cubes, and within about 30 seconds, the cubes vanished and an email report landed in my inbox stating resolved.

Now that is how it is supposed to work and as far as I can see, the new system is fantastic.

Now next task Lindens is how can we get rid of these griefers to stop them just opening another account. Keep up the excellent work.

What if it is things hitting us, and we can't see who is doing it? how do we AR a ghost? What if its mass sound spam, along with dirty nasty pictures/or even Mario's. can't tell whos doing it, oh wait, can't find the thing sending them out.. remember you have to have a name, to file an AR... ? :/ im just curious, and if i tried, i could im sure come up with other incidents, however it is 6am and i've not slept on it yet.

6.00 am and they post their first post!?!?! Go to bed!!! LMAO

In the debug menus there are ways to turn on markers for sound sources - these appear as 3D crosshairs in your display. It's not great, but it's better than nothing, and will help you identify the prims making noise.

If it's spamming you with pictures, you'll see something in your history that shows that an object is giving you these images. In conjunction with one of the several freebie object finders available on SLExchange and other places, armed with the knowledge of the name of the object, you can use the finder to physically locate the object. Once this has been found, you'll have the identity of your perpetrator - this is assuming that the object is within sensor range, and many spamming objects aren't. If that happens, you'll have to email [email]inworldsupport@secondlife.com[/email] and carefully explain the situation and provide as much information as you have in order to get Linden assistance if you are unable to mute the sending object yourself (which again, should always be possible if you know the object's name).
