When i see the number of noobs creating non sense names in the same style as abc just because they opened a new account without any idea about their SL avatar name, I suggest to offer a one time free name choice so that they can change it, within a time frame being their 3 first months on SL. It would make SL much more friendly for new avatars at quite no cost for SL.

I have been in bussiness for over 17 years in sl with the same group, I would love to add the word "Rentals" to the end of the group name so it explains what the group is about and is easier to find, if we can rename AV's, surely we can rename groups? the only way to rename a group at the present is to create a new group, evict everyone from the old group then invite them to the new group.

Linden Groups and Support groups should not use up limited group slots

I would the ability to use my baked avatar textures on animesh attachments. I can't see a downside to enabling this, and animesh can simply inherit the bake of the avatar it's attached to. When placed inworld rather than attached, it would appear the same as a BOM body or body part with the BOM placeholder textures.

As an applier creator for body materials and tattoos for mesh bodies using the SLUV - it is tiring and quite redundant to program applier scripts for each body (and heads) that I would like to support. It would be an infinately more efficient system overall for all bodies if they could simply utilize a specified UUID channel that grabs those textures from a BOM wearable to get directly applied as materials on the rigged mesh wearable. Something like additional AUX layers that had multiple channels for normal and specular (or even PBR materials) for head/body UV in them. Almost all mesh body wearers have updated to BOM skin for bodies and heads, and often struggle with adding and removing materials in HUD based systems. Implimenting a system like this would make changing materials on bodies easier for base line consumers who are about to experience materials for the first time when all viewers have updated to PBR. Along with this request, I need to stress the importance of 2K bakedown service for these materials to be worth making a BOM asset. The payoff being - bodies would not need to add another stack of scripts to compensate for PBR materials on their mesh bodies and heads, which consumers are already wanting. Addressing 2K BOM requests with the ability for materials to also be BOM would greatly combat an increase in constantly running scripts in bodies and heads, and would make the entire community much happier for it!

Allow more dynamic links and categories and icons and grouping like link tree offers. In Link Tree you can have documents and embedded elements like video. It would be great to have pdf or similar. Allow rich text.

With the amount of scambots, trolls and what have you going around, it would be nice for an added measure of protection by being able to set an "age" limit on our groups so that avatars of a certain time online can not join and lock out all these day old scammers and troll accounts. I know LL can not control all accounts as they join but this would lock down a major issue and save people grief and from being scammed. While this does not thwart ALL troll/scam attempts when they take over established accounts, it would surely limit the issue by a lot and be less work for everyone. Including in the SLB group as its been very prolific in as of late for an example.

Hi, I like to script for Second Life. A lot of my background in programming comes from learning LSL and it has been a very useful tool for me. Around 2020, I had a very bad set of circumstances that caused a rapid development of cataracts that left me with full blindness. It took me nearly half a year to have this rectified, during this time. I was physically incapable of using the platform due to a lack of screen-reader support. Third-party viewer options (such as Radegast) were impossible to use and left me extremely confused while trying to use them with a screen reader. It would be really nice if LL could offer accessibility features for visually impaired/blind users, starting with implementing screen reader support for their viewer. As even though I do have my sight back, I do still struggle with focus and sometimes do still use a screen reader to help.
