Then don't publish here i would say.
And the 4500 thingy? Yep that is how sl traffic works for a major part based on 24 hour count of a concurrent user. Anyway, then don't come here i would say lol.
It is? WOW! Do you have suspended animation where you live?

The reason for this is Thread is: 15 - 20% of concurrent users are Alts & Bots.
I have nothing against Alt accounts as as long as they are used legitimate.

However my proposal is to limit parallel logins of 1 real user to max 3.

It is my dedication to fight against the high misuse of Alts and Bots, as they:

1 Degrade the experience.
2 Fake activity and fake traffic points.
3 Are a base for fraude and misuse.
4 Clutter logins and overall performance of the Grid and certainly the region they are in.
5 Steal traffic.

I am going to publish high traffic regions here where traffic counters are faked to get them high in Search.

Please join me here if you are have the same opinion and know regions too who do.
You can publish here. The intention of this thread is therefore not discussions
Me being banned btw serves a higher purpose.

To what purpose, other than to get yourself suspended?

LL obviously does not care. It can't be for their benefit.

Users who care about traffic bots can see them when they go to those sims, and leave. They don't need the list.

Users who don't care about traffic bots aren't going to care about the list either.

Each avatar has 4500 traffic points to give every 24 hours distributed over the place they stayed > 5 minutes.


Oh and btw... I was at Jack's office hours last week and he mentioned that they now take the above formula and deduct 32, then multiply by 5, then divide by 9.

This is not how traffic works anymore. In changed in, like, 2006, so that traffic = 1 point per avatar per minute.

Also, I wrote a botdetecting script, you can see the results here: http://ninjaland.net/tools/botdetect/. It's kinda crappy though. My main problem I think is that I'm too lazy to put it out on enough sims and too stupid to work out how to do it automatically.

*edit: See http://wiki.secondlife.com/wiki/Help:Traffic

I was there too and you missed the last bit. After those parts, they then take away the number they first thought of (which is the first number that pops into the person's head who is calculating the traffic on the day).
