From: Stone Mason Don't really care about phantom at all, it wasn't a intended "feature". While your all add it, why dont you beg for a llIWinEverything() or llGiveMeMoney(). Things like this arn't part of the game because they do in fact make certain things too easy. I'd vote for them to take away the ability to fly, but hey thats me. Once again, cheating is a moot point because anything phantom allows you to do other unavoidable things also allow. As far as flying you already CAN remove flight on a parcel if you put something that requires no flight. Removing it for the entire game would just be a joke. Talk about mass exodus from the game.  Somehow I don't get the feeling you really have a clue what you are talking about.

From: Blain Candour Not when parcel preferences only effect lower altitudes the way they do. Just like you can fly over a no flight parcel or a parcel you are banned from. The problem isn't normal buildings at telehub malls it is 200 meter tall towers and billboards. Actually, unlike the scripts and access lists restrictions, you cannot fly or rez objects over a no-rez or no-flight parcel at any altitude at all. The restriction is absolute for the entire 2-dimensional parcel plane. The "No Phantom" resctriction can be designed to function the same way.

Things like this arn't part of the game because they do in fact make certain things too easy. I'd vote for them to take away the ability to fly, but hey thats me. SecondLife is not a game. Its an online social platform that allow you to create and shape the enviroment yourself. There is nothing to win. There is no reason to restrict global flight capacity. You are not going to get 500 times more gold or loot or EXP points by being able to phantom. What you will gain (and allready can - for the moment), is supirior ability to move around the world and build. As a development enviroment, its more important to gain freedom then lose it. Gaining the freedom to allow or deny the ability of Phantoming selectivly per parcel will only do good for this enviroment and what it is used for. |

well by taking this freedom away ,LL has become the virtual bush administration..."screw the people and what they want"..."to hell with personal liberties and freedoms"..."control control control"...and "I talk to god" on top.
doncha love being subject to restrictions based on someone else`s whims...and real progress like p2p teleports and griefer protection laying by the wayside?

oh hey...an awesome and fully reasonable alternative to feeling like the place is being made worse by removing a tool we have come to utilise in a productive and progressive manner......a new rule base for building and rezzing objects
1. no object of any kind will be rezzed or built within 2000 meters of any telehub
2. no object within 20000meters of any telehub will be over 20 meters high
3. no buildings will show uniqueness or creativity in any manner that allows an avatar`s attempt to access all areas ( we must maintain the seclusion that the anti social members wish to have, and have achieved a little more of, with the knee jerk panicky squirrel reaction that drove a very small few to request the phase shield be disabled)(I will never understand the need of people to come to a completely social environment ,to subject those who attend the same evironment for social pleasure, to unending anti-social behaviour....kinda tresspasses upon everyones enjoyment and denies them a full return on the money they pay to legally contract such enjoyment.....although I suppose if the ads state that the place is as anti-socially oriented as it is socially oriented then that could be considered fair warning....did anyone even get a hint that it would be anti-socially oriented?)
4. absolutely no object will be rezzed or stacked in any area not directly covered by your land`s entrance permissions structure...which I believe is about 20 meters.
This completely reasonable set of rules would stop all the obstructions to random enjoyment that each avatar is fully entitled to and should fully expect....anything else intereferes with the enjoyment of multitudes of avatars that must endure the intrusion upon their progressions throughout the virtual world.......
awww c`mon...it is reasonable.....at least in the reality where we have no say in the disposition of tools we use quite frequently and have grown to rely on for our enjoyment.
(and god spare me any more of the completely unthought out responses that include "but it is used for spying" or any nonsense and moronic version thereof.)
The level of narcissistic reaction is overwhelming....if anyone felt you were important enough to spy on...and if they decided to take the time and effort to do so...and if in any way shape or form anyone was doing anything even remotely worth spying on.....feel honored....or keep the mini map open and a proximity detector running...oh and make sure you have full signage up to warn of the consequences of spying or intruding behaviour....... and then react when it happens...but don`t hold your breath waiting for it.
or maybe some should...............
