Hi
A bizzare thing has just happened in our club...
We have 3 camping dance pads. We have just noticed 3 AV's dancing on them. They all started dacing at the same time (and had earned the same amount), and all had the same appearance, and were all created on the same day. They had different names.
Becuase it looked suspicious, I clicked on one pf the pads to "log off" the dancer from the pad - immediately "poof!" gone....
I did the same with the other two, same thing happened - they all vanished as soon as they were logged off the pads. (this would not normally happen - the dancer would continue to dance, but stop earning".
Anyone else seen this happen? Any ideas on how to prevent it?

Wow, huh, lol... Interesting way to make money. Hm. No idea how to stop it though, that's like the landbot issue, I dunno if there's a way to stop it.
The lengths people will go?

seems like it's only a matter of time that someone finds a way to take advantage of the things that take advantage of SL. anyplace with campers is a no-return place for me.

Well, it looks like the days of them are number at our club... I installed them to help the regulars earn a bit of cash whilst they are there, and not to attract traffic as such. In fact the dancepads only pay if the person stays active and has to click on a popup every minute to remain logged in... We did this so we didnt end up with a load of "zombies" there. Still, is seems someone has foud a way around it, and like most things in life, it's the small minority that spoils it for the rest of us  Gomez

Don't use camping chairs to artificially inflate your traffic. That should stop the camping bots.
Isn't traffic supposed to be GONE by now? I guess LL might be too addicted to people dumping USD down a hole to win the traffic game to call it quits just yet.

Gomez You can add an orb that at a predetermined amount of time asks the AV to enter a code. If they don't enter it within 30 seconds they are kicked.
