Hi everyone,

First post so i'm sorry if this has been asked before (i searched but did not find)

My business partner and i run a furniture shop on a 1/2 sim, and have no real issues with griefers in the past months. However, suddenly, since the change in signup process, we're having trouble with kids "bombing" the sim and we're waking up to a shop crippled by flames

Please see here for all the problems this has been causing us: /139/ca/121187/1.html

We are on UK time, and we keep getting bombed on US time, so we dont' find out for 8 hours or so and it's really affecting our sales now!

Does anyone have any idea how to script something to deal with these prim bombs or flame bombs in a more automatic way than just alerting us to the event? (ie disable and remove it)

Does this require more privileges than a scripted object can run?

Does someone already make them in-game? We will happily buy one!

We are no prepared to ban those people without payment info on file, because it will reduce our sales, stopping genuine adults wishing to buy.

Can anyone help at all?

Thank you for your time and patience

Perhaps you could max out the prim count in your parcel by adding extra prims, say 100 M up. You could just add little boxes. If your parcel is full, then noone should be able to rez anything on it.

It can be done quite easily with llGetOwnerKey, llGetKey and llOverMyLand. any new objects rezzed then sent to IM, which can then be forwarded via e-mail to MSN (which has an alert function). You could also notify the griefer, that he is rezzing objects on your land at the same time.

You could always set your plot of land to return objects after 1 minute. Assuming you, or your group, own the land and all the legitimate objects upon.

Auto-return is the best option. Scripts can't remove other objects, so even if you managed to detect bombs they could just notify you.

I have completed a security system that will ban people(after warnings) that do this on the land. As of yet, there is no way to remove their objects or stop them from shooting in from outside, but as soon as this is added (and i am sure it will be), I will add it. I hope to be one of the first to impliment this into this system once it is released. Contact me or Somatika Xiao in-game for more details.

This is by far the best option.

Agreed. It also prevents invisi-prim frauds. (Invisi-prims scripted with the money event placed over the vendor so as to steal payments from buyers.)

Most of that has been eliminated (afaik) with the advent of the new Paying user: through object: box.
