Anyone run across these "buried" avatars before? I noticed a green dot was always on the map near my new land. In a protected water sim(Gorcey). I went to investigate and there was an avatar buried under the land. When clicked some chat popped up. It said "HELLO MY NAME IS BLACKPAY HALLARD AND I AM 16 YEARS OLD". That phrase was repeated numerous times.
About an hour later I found another one in Aswan.
Its very strange...lol.
Edit: just found a third in Mirtoon

I was in Dore and saw the annoying chat several times, so you apparently weren't the only one digging up the dead. Thought it was another griefer and left out of then when I was finished.

That is way too creepy. I would try to IM them and see if they respond. Could also be some type of bot.

I did try to im 2 of them. No response. The weird thing for me was the one that "talked" said he/she was 16 years old.

It's just an animation that sits you a lot lower than normal. Nothing too hacky about it, though why somebody would do it for legit reasons is beyond me..
