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.

If we had tick marks in the hover height adjustment window that we could click to adjust hover height by just a little bit, it would be easier when changing it by the smallest amount possible. Sometimes I'm just like an inch off/below the ground but don't want to type 0.31 if it's currently at 0.3. If I could adjust by tick marks that could be a handy add-on. A small change, but could improve the game.

What I mean by this is I wish we could mark group notices as types or topics so if you've already seen a certain group notice that is the EXACT SAME as one being sent out again tomorrow/later in the day, you can mark it so you won't receive it again. Stores send out reminders daily (or more often!) that I want to receive, but once I've received it, I don't need it again. This could be a tick mark that you click on that's on the group notice when it's sent out while you're online and you can quickly mark it so you won't receive that exact notice again, and a checkbox you can click on in notices when in the Group Notices tab for that group.

Block feature shoud go both ways. If, for example I block someone, I see them gray, but they are still able to see me. The purpose of blocking someone is to keep them out of our lives. If they can still see us, then this block is half achieved purpose. It should go both ways. If one block someone then both avatars should be gray. I have a friend that blocked someone and he can still see her and follow her in her usual spots. She sees the view crosses fixed on parts of her body even though he is blocked. This is making her uncomfortable and should not be allowed. Blocked people should not be able to see the person that blocked them. Thank you

People see the dots and a bot, and assume it's contributing to traffic then some people will actively avoid such a place. If there's such an option I'm unaware of it but I'd love to hear solutions!

(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'd like it if we were able to classify group notices into "types." I get notices from stores all the time that ask you to follow their social media and I'm already following them so it doesn't apply to me. If I'm part of a big group that sends out different types of notices, maybe I only want to receive some for specific events. Or groups can send out notices that fall under "reminders", "staff only", "for VIPs", "events", etc. Some of my groups I want to receive ALL group notices - this could be the default when first joining a group. You could perhaps manually select which ones you want to opt out of if you realize a group sends lots that aren't relevant to you.

As has been noted over and over again, the increase in phishing spam links is or has gotten out of control. In the following, I propose a practical way in which to address this issue which would seriously curb the issue if not altogether get rid of such an activity. Create new role abilities. New abilities would have defined rules for group owner, group moderator(s) or other trusted individuals to be the only allowed individuals to post links in a group. Sub-classification for members who don't fit the aforementioned roles to be allowed only to post image links from known/well established image sharing sites. (This too should have a on/off toggle to prevent any type of abuse as needed) Group owners/moderators can have/create an allowed list of URL's that are permitted in their group. Example: Marketplace.secondlife.com Defining permitted URLs allows only those that are an exact match and prevents misspelled and misleading links. In the event a user attempts to post outside of their role abilities, the post is blocked from being sent and user notified as to why. In the above proposed solution, spammers would not by default be allowed to post spam links in any group as the default persons of the established "everyone" role would not allow it nor any other default role as defined by the group administration. In consideration of what to do with groups whose administration has been absent for a period of 6 months or more, by default all link postings should be disabled until such a time (if ever) a group owner logs in and establishes who may post links. While some may see this as an unpopular option, it prevents those groups that some still use from being exploited. I propose this solution as if there is no ability to post phishing links, then there is less likelihood that users are entering in their credentials and their accounts being compromised as well as serving the great community good of people who just don't want to see this mess as there are other means of advertising for those who are interested.

* Open World menu > Legacy Search * In the People tab, search for someone, e.g. testerd50 Tester * The profile that is shown is a simplified version of the normal Profile. * Add a way to open the full Profile. Adding a View Profile entry to the Actions menu is one possible solution.

Note: I know this was suggested before and it's tracked. I know this will be merged. That's okay, I wanted to give more suggestions on implementation and answer "why" beyond that it would just be a nice feature. Problem: You don't want to see stuff made by a certain creator on the marketplace. There may be a variety of reasons for this. Here are a few examples. You have the shop owner in game block due to harassment, drama, or other personal reasons and don't want to accidentally give this person money. The vendor is selling rips. The seller has a business model you don't want to support. Maybe you don't want to buy clothes that are no mod, maybe they have shady business practices that involve over-editing their ads, or using AI on their ads resulting in false advertising. Maybe the seller's content makes you deeply uncomfortable such as selling adult products but the models scream childlike and you don't want to see that. The seller is flooding the marketplace with thousands of generative AI textures to make a quick buck, making it impossible to find high quality textures. This is a growing problem that needs urgent addressing. Solution: Allow us to block the shop and/or the owner of the shop. Owner might be better in case the marketplace someday expands to let a single user have more than one storefront. Or both. Blocking a particular product may also have its place. Implementation: Beneath the flag listing link there would be additional links: Block this shop Behavior: Browsing and searching omits all products from the store. Adds shop to a block list. They can be removed from block list if needed. Block this seller (<--- Alternative, or TBI if multiple storefronts ever becomes a thing.) Behavior: Browsing and searching omit all products from any and all products from the store. A popup that asks, "Do you want to block this person from your shop as well?" may be a good move in some circumstances. They can be removed from block list if needed. Hide Product Behavior: Omits an individual product from search and browsing. Unhide Product Behavior: Removes product from hide. How would you find a listing if it was hidden? Give people a checkbook to show hidden products in search and browse. By giving us the tools to better curate our experience with the marketplace you will empower users to find what they want without having to wade through things they don't want to see, increasing the likelihood of them spending money instead of getting frustrated and giving up on the search.
