While the Toolbar Buttons selection has a wide variety of options by default, I would like the option to add single specific subfolders to the Toolbar UI. Example use case: I organize my protected Outfits folder by adding sub-folders within that main Outfits folder, but the Appearance/Outfits/Ctrl+O window does not respect the subfolder structure and only shows ALL outfits in alphabetical order regardless of the manually organized hierarchy as it appears in my main Inventory window. So, instead of adding the Appearance button to my toolbar or using Ctrl+O shortcut, I'd rather add the Outfits FOLDER itself to my toolbar so that it opens a new Inventory window as if I had selected "Show in new Window" on that specific folder within the Inventory window. This would be a convenient quality of life option for those of us who need quick access to specific folders in our inventory more often, instead of relying solely on using Shift+Ctrl+i to open a new Inventory window and then navigating to the folder(s) we need.

Group notices currently allow more text to be entered than will actually display once posted, so the end of longer notices gets silently truncated. This suggestion is for LL to add a character limit (or live character counter) on the notice creation window that matches the actual display limit so that way creators know up front when their text will be cut off, rather than discovering it after the notice goes out.

Optically you can see from a region to the next one - the sim border is invisible. Physically though the next region does not exist until you travel over the border between the recent region and the next one. Let's suppose you are traveling by boat. If you hit a pier in a region, your boat is bounced back. But if you hit a pier located on the next region reaching until the region's edge, your boat first travels over the sim border and suddenly gets caught in the pier bouncing like crazy. Suggestion: the physics engine of each region should also load (render?) the physical shapes of the neighbor regions borders, which are pointed to the region, so a vehicle is bounced back and does not enter the next region where it is blocked by some object. Advantage: physical experience would be far more natural, collisions on sim borders would not be special. Since it is very common to build right until the sim borders, this is issue not a trifle at all imo. Vessels that have a damage system responsive to collisions (to make sailing more challenging) use to sink immediately when hitting these sim edge builds (since being caught on an object causes plenty of collisions in a very short time), while they would only take some damage while hitting the same build from the other side. This particularly is annoying, if there is a very tiny or even invisible object on the sim border, so you have no chance to recognize it before your ship suddenly sinks for no obvious reason.

Allow changing camera parameters while in and out of mouse look relative to avatars position. These changes would stay relative to the avatar and allow the use of mouse look for experiences such as flashlights, weapons, etc. I am personally looking to create a flashlight as an experience that changes your camera to an over shoulder view, and when entering mouse look the view stays the same, but allows further interactivity with mouse controls. You could also make a third person weapon that affects your camera in and out of mouse look. Entering mouse look would enable shooting functionality, but you could still maintain a third person view.

Like many other users, I periodically get spam notecards and IMs from SL business owners advertising their new products. I have NEVER signed up to any notecard mailing list, I have always been added automatically without my knowledge. There's already a feedback post here about the ability to block these objects: https://feedback.secondlife.com/feature-requests/p/blocking-an-avatar-should-also-block-blacklist-all-of-their-rezzed-objects however I think that is only a band-aid solution. Signing users up onto your "subscription" service without their consent should not be allowed in the first place. It falls under spam, yet every time I have submitted a report against these objects, & explained in the report that they are spamming me (and others) without my consent and sometimes without a way to opt out, nothing seems to come of it. So I can only assume that, currently, this isn't against the SL TOS, or for some reason the reports are falling on deaf ears. Every time this has happened to me, the ads I get are from a brand that I don't recognize. This is because every time this happens it's nearly always happens one of two ways: I was added to the mailing list because I bought ONE item from the store in question; often a long time ago, sometimes years or more, from the Marketplace. This implies that the store owner is manually adding all Marketplace customer usernames to a mailing list or automating the process somehow. I visited the sim one time, and my mere presence was enough to get me on their mailing list. I need to stress that not only do these users add you to lists extremely easily, but they often make unsubscribing very difficult. At best, it'll be through a system like "KioskNet" - which at least has an inworld location you can go and get a HUD from, and unsubscribe from any mailing lists using that system. But if they use their own system, you're often out of luck. Some tell you "unsubscribe in the mainstore" but when you go there, there's no unsubscribe button, no matter how you look. Others say "contact me to unsubscribe", meaning that you have to actually talk to the person to convince them to take you off. And even if you find a way to unsubscribe, some will automatically put you back on their list later! I periodically check the KioskNet thing because every 6 months or so, a store has added me back as a "subscriber." As the other thread on this issue says, though, blocking either the user or their mailing object usually doesn't work because they tend to rezz multiple copies of the object, and keep going. Once you're in their system, you will be contacted by any object they rez going forward. I ask that Linden Labs considering making these unprompted spam subscriptions disallowed on the platform, and actually punishable. You should ONLY be able to get a "subscription" by opting in. Intrusive ads we did not ask for are spammy, disruptive, and extremely annoying.

(see picture) This is our old friend twisted torus. Twisted torus doesn't get out much anymore because the moment a modern texture is applied (material or PBR), the Li jumps from 1 to 306 This is and has always been clearly wrong and broken. A texture or six doesn't change the actual impact of a thing by a factor of over 300. Prims are always going to be heavier than mesh, but keep in mind this was all we had back when our graphics cards had MEGABYTES of memory. Our hair was 200 twisted tori and nothing bad happened. Why does a texture flip the new calculations on .. because legacy builds would get auto returned en-masse. For all their sins, please fix prims so they are at most 1 Li under all circumstances. Prims are accessible, fun and core part of the platform.

I don't know if this is even possible, but have the ability for region owners, who have more than one region. The ability to combine the regions they have into one Mega Region. It would limit sim crossings, and it would be perfect for roleplay communities.

It doesn't take long in SL for 1 type of inventory item to grow in quantity beyond any other. And, not much longer than that for the majority of them to become utterly obsolete. I'm referring to Landmarks. To address the ongoing growth of obsolete Landmarks all across all of our inventories, I propose the idea of dynamically re-pointable landmarks. The following are the basic rules for how it would work: Every user would have 6 separate personal LM entries that they can add to their viewer, numbered 1 to 6. A user can enter any SLURL into any of the 6 positions, and any Landmarks created by that user that he associates with one of his/her 6 entry positions will cause those LMs and copies of them to always lead to that corresponding SURL entry. At any time, the creator can update or change any of his 6 SLURL entries in his viewer, and all previously provided associated Landmarks and all copies will auto-redirect to the new corresponding latest entry based on the creator's current SURL entry for the same entry position in his viewer list. This same LM system should also function within MP listings, for those sellers who want to allow customers to view their product outside the MP, in their in-grid store.

Lately a lot of SL groups have been getting hit by spammers posting phishing links that look like real Marketplace stores. Here’s an example of the kind of thing going around: [12:16:37] Rẙaḽīể (ryalie): New store! Outfit + Shape, Everything is free, limited quantity https://marketplacsecondlife-style-body-mesh-catwa-185089.store It’s clearly meant to trick people, and residents are falling for it because it looks close-ish to a legit SL URL. People are losing their Lindens because their accounts become compromised, thinking they’re logging into a trusted site. The scammers then use those compromised accounts to spam other groups (sometimes even pay-to-join ones), which just keeps the cycle going and leads to more stolen Lindens and MORE hacked accounts. My suggestion is to remove clickable URLs in group chat and IMs unless they’re from trusted sites. Maybe have a whitelist for known, safe domains like: marketplace.secondlife.com secondlife.com community.secondlife.com flickr.com primfeed.com gyazo.com Or other KNOWN and trusted sites. Everything else could just show up as plain text or with a warning before opening. Other possible options could include: color-coding links (safe ones in green, unverified ones in grey or red), adding a short delay before opening non-trusted URLs (“This link will open in 5 seconds”), or even giving users a setting in Preferences to allow clickable links from trusted domains only. This would stop a lot of the spam and protect people from phishing. It would also cut down the workload for in-world group moderators (who constantly have to boot spammers) and reduce support tickets from compromised accounts; meaning less work for your support team, cost savings for you, and a safer experience for everyone. Thank you!

During my time in SL, I've come across several talented creators who maintain systems or games that periodically communicate with a server either in-world, or externally, to verify whether a user has permission to use the product. In many cases, these systems are sold for an upfront fee. The issue is that when someone pays for an asset that relies on ongoing server-side authorization, their ability to use that asset ultimately remains at the creator's discretion. This can create significant problems for customers, as access can be revoked at any time if the creator decides to ban them or discontinue authorization. I don't believe this is acceptable unless it is clearly disclosed before purchase. I propose the following: Any item that communicates with a server (whether in-world or external) for authorization, licensing, or functionality purposes should be required to disclose this fact. The listing/advertisement should also explicitly warn users that the creator may terminate their access to the product at any time. I should clarify that this would be items that are sold FOR PROFIT, and not for free (as the loss is then not material). This allows buyers to make informed purchasing decisions and better understand the risks associated with server-dependent products, rather than using it and ending up paying for something that they could lose access to over anything the creator sees fit.
