Concept #3

Objective: A zone of griefers.

Problem: There's so many people who just like to say crazy shit to offend folks and bother the hell out of others.

Solution: Send them away.

What happens would be that people who grief would be sent away to a spot that's caged up. The people would have their teleport and flying disabled for ten minutes. And if they tried to log off and log back in, they would just spawn back to same Griefing Zone.

How to review who's being a douche?
Scan dialogue for certain words.

What to find within Second Life?
Random characters looking for griefers. I wouldn't call them police, it would just be nice to be able to set up a Wanted ad in SL warning people of certain griefers, these would be the worst ones.

  1. I remember a while ago someone was able to set up World ban system where if one landowner banned a griefer, that griefer would be banned anywhere else that was under the Worldban system.

    The problem with any anti-griefer tool for Second Life is that:
    1) Griefers can be really smart. They know ways around everything.
    2) Griefers often sign up to many different accounts. If one account gets banned, they just hop onto another account.
    3) Any kind of attack on griefers just encourages them to grief more. Security firms and "SL Police Stations" set up by residents used to be favorite targets of griefers.

    The best thing you can do against them is to ignore them the best as you can. Getting angry or fighting back just gives them more satisfaction that they're done their job.
