If anyone is acting crazy over a small parcel its Ravenelle – and she has never had to pay a dime in Bear sim. Unlike Lias who pays hundreds a year. The other crazies are the bunch hanging out in the infohub. Get a life, get a grip – go pick your ass somewhere else. Problem solved.

I found the first documented complaint about overcrowding of Lias Leandros aka bladyblue Bommerang – all the way back in March of 2007

And Torley’s communication with her regarding the infohub build

So be very aware if you decide to agree to do anything with Linden Lab. You will probably be GOM’d in the same manner.

And I am so sorry you feel so defensive about it that you have decided to project your hysterical and hyperbolic thoughts onto me. I’m not damaged, I moved on to other gainful, rewarding adventures when I realised what a selfish twit she was. That doesn’t mean I took an oath to not point out her behaviour.

This is just another one of her paranoid tempests in a teapot.

And it isn’t every club owner. I have hosted for places that treated us with respect, instead of treating us as if they owned our avatars and overreached into our personal lives.

Maybe if she treated SL as a community rather than a tool to extract money and “power” from others, she wouldn’t always be surrounded by drama. This situation doesn’t exist in a vacuum, you know. She has a history of this sort of thing, and never misses an opportunity to take a shot at her perceived enemies while trying to martyr herself.

Anyway, I’ve said my piece, you can now return to patrolling this comment section, defending your idol.

a) prevent noobs from seeing adjacent businesses, i.e. causing them damage

b) making them transparent on the outside means those adjacent businesses and their customers are still lagged to hell by having to rezz all the noobs hanging out in the infohub. If the outside was opaque, their lag would be reduced,

So the wall is clearly not there to help them at all, it is intended to hinder neighbors commercial activities. Sad but not surprising, LL’s predatory behavior toward their best PAYING customers is now legendary, which is why they have an unsatisfactory rating from the Better Business Bureau.

The wall is indeed phantom and is transparent from the outside. It appears to be firmly inside the property line. It doesn’t obstruct the view of anyone outside of it.

The only purpose that the wall appears to serve is to give the residents inside the infohub a nice forest view instead of looking directly at a wall covered in advertisements across the street.

(however, the wall could probably have been made without megaprims, since they’re only 20×20, they could have just as easily used 10×10)

who said these guys were providing any kind of service?
they have no clue what ‘service’ begins to behave like!
oh wait – hold up – yea they do provide a service, a service that gives people a new way to harrass one another over beyond what they already do in RL on the streets, over their backyard fences and in the shopping malls.

well I’ll be damned, that’s one heck of a service right there!

I’ll have to go check this wall out later, but from what’s been described, I’m really not seeing where the issue is. Someone put up a phantom wall at the Bear infohub. The wall is described as being transparent on the outside, so others can see in, their view is thus not blocked by the wall. The wall is being described as having trees on it on the infohub side. Perhaps this is to block an unwanted view? Or maybe they just really wanted a tree background. Dunno, but since the view of the people in the adjacent plot doesn’t seem to be affected, if it really is transparent, and since the wall is phantom and thus not impairing anyone’s ability to move through it, then I don’t really see why it’s creating an issue. The only serious problem that I see is that it’s a megaprim (ughhh) and those can cause some rendering issues, but since it’s phantom it shouldn’t cause any of the physics issues that megaprims bring. So yeah, I can see how people might complain that it adds to the client-side rendering lag.

But aside from that, where’s the issue? Someone in the Bear infohub put up a wall that prevents people in the infohub from seeing an adjacent parcel, without obstructing the view of the people in that parcel?

Quel horreur

I am so sorry you were so emotional damaged by your employment in her club (lol). But you just described every well-known club owner anywhere.

I used to work for her, until I realised what a controlling, egotistical, pinchpenny, manipulative hypocrite she is.

She is just another SL leech, who takes herself and SL way too seriously.
