Another round of Police Blotter Round-Up! YeeHaw!
Date: Monday, January 7, 2008
Violation: Community Standards: Disturbing the Peace, Ad Content
Region: LiaisonLand
Description: Repetitive spamming unwanted adverts.
Action taken: Warning issued.
You know, I am spammed twenty-four seven by ads in real life. I am spammed twenty-four seven by ads in Second Life. So why is Liaison land sacred ground? When I go to church the back of the daily bulletin is plastered with ads. During one homily the pastor was a dead ringer for a TV ad. E-surance, I think it reminded me of.
I am spammed in IMs, in group notices, and in simple public chat by ads. Disturbing the peace, sure, but would I warn someone over "Ad Content"? Are you seriously telling me that the Lindens never checked their email and got a Viagra advert? Did they email their Internet provider and demand "purdygurl@goozle.com
" be warned for inappropriate content. I just hit delete, and block the address. There is a button in the corner, Lindens and whoever AR'd this, it's called the Mute button. Use it.

Date: Sunday, January 6, 2008
Violation: Disturbing the Peace: Repetitive Content, Spamming
Region: Orientation Island Public
Description: Chat and sound spam.
Action taken: Suspended 1 days.
Spamming is now a bannable offense? Hey everyone, stop using your gestures. It might be spamming! Whatever happened to telling people to just use the mute button? Sure, it's orientation island, and the Lindens don't want new people to get the wrong impression, but wouldn't you rather have them learn how to use the mute button now instead of later?
I really hope this doesn't become a standard policy, because vindictive people will abuse this. If there is an argument, my opponent can say I'm spamming my opinion and get me investigated and held up, which in a debate is total loss. After all, in a debate you aren't trying to convince your opponent, you're trying to convince the viewers you're right. If you have a 'criminal' record, you lose. After all, how could a crook be right, right?

Violation: Community Standards: Disturbing the Peace
Region: Sandbox Goguen
Description: Sound spam.
Action taken: Warning issued.
Same thing as the two above. Someone must have woke today, and said, "Gee, spammers chip my block." Freedom of speech is a lovely double edged sword. FOr those insistent that LL is a company and not subject to the Bill of Rights, their old line used to be "Your world, your imagination" and "We only moderate when there is cheating/griefing/etc". But of course, there is no SL constitution so Lindens are not bound to be consistent. Fun!

Date: Sunday, January 6, 2008
Violation: Disturbing the Peace: Misuse of Public Spaces
Region: Sandbox Goguen
Description: Selling in the sandboxes.
Action taken: Warning issued.
...Okay. This is crime now? What about those giant Mr Lee Hong Kong ads by the Linden roads? Those ads are misusing public space. Why is selling a misuse? There is always going to be some two-bit nobody hawking something or other on a street corner. With more people unwilling or unable to buy land or rent store space, they are going to see an increase of these kinds of things. Really, they shouldn't force this as an offence.
And who in Nunchuck's virtual earth reported this as an offence? I'd love to meet the guy who AR'd someone for this. I'd just love to know the thought process behind it. OH MY NUNCHUCK, NOT A MERCHANT! TRYING TO SELL ME THINGS IN EXCHANGE FOR MY MONEY!?!

Date: Sunday, January 6, 2008
Violation: Community Standards: Disturbing the Peace
Region: Sea of Intrigue3
Description: Prim littering.
Action taken: Suspended 1 days.
Finally, someone taking a stance against people who litter prims. There are sandboxes for these kinds of things. Sandboxes are a dime a dozen. There are public ones, and private ones which people will generously open to you. You don't need to litter infohubs, private property, and parks with your silly experiments. There are too many better alternatives, and claiming you can't find a sandbox is pure laziness on your part.

Date: Sunday, January 6, 2008
Violation: Terms of Service: Gambling
Region: Dryas
Description: Wagering items.
Action taken: Warning issued.
A ha! I hoped one of these would make it in! Lovely policy! This truly shows me the Lindens are hard at work staying true to their word!
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Date: Sunday, January 6, 2008
Violation: Community Standards: Assault, Scripted Objects
Region: Dura
Description: Assaulting others in safe region.
Action taken: Warning issued.
I guarantee you the person in question here will get another warning within a week.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Date: Sunday, January 6, 2008
Violation: Community Standards: Harassment, Verbal Abuse
Region: Sexy Land
Description: Verbal language abuse
Action taken: Warning issued.
"Sexy Land"? Verbal Abuse? Why am I not surprised? TO be honest, if I were a Linden and I saw this AR, I'd assume it was some kind of BSDM. Another good AR, though, since this kind of thing should never be tolerated.
Even at Sexy Land.

Date: Sunday, January 6, 2008
Violation: Community Standards: Indecency, Mature Content
Region: Plum
Description: Abusive language in welcome area
Action taken: Suspended 1 days.
I do wish sometimes they'd include a transcript of the language. It is probably all the same junk, but you would find a few gems in there. ONe in a million would find a way to be imaginatively offensive.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Date: Sunday, January 6, 2008
Violation: Community Standards: Disturbing the Peace
Region: Violet
Description: Language abuse and pushing residents
Action taken: Suspended 3 days.
Same old, same old. I've seen hordes of these kinds of offenders in action. They're more annoying than harmful. It does grate on you after a while. It's telling that of the three total Abuse Reports I have filed in my 1.3 years of SL, two have been against these kinds of idiots.

Date: Sunday, January 6, 2008
Violation: Community Standards: Disturbing the Peace
Region: Tipsico
Description: Prim litter in private home
Action taken: Warning issued.
See above. Prim littering a Private home is just obvious assholelery. Even the slowest of people realize that you tend to stay off someone's property.

Violation: Community Standards: Harassment, Verbal Abuse

Date: Saturday, January 5, 2008
Violation: Community Standards: Indecency, Mature Content
Region: Ahern
Description: Inappropriate language around Welcome Area.
Action taken: Suspended 1 days.
Ha. Aha ha. HAHAHAHAHHA. Ahern gets one lowly AR? That's it? Anyone who's been to Ahern for an hour knows just how rancid that place can be. I'm honestly surprised that the police blotter isn't rife with reports from Ahern. I can only assume they just chuck all reports from Ahern into a barrel and write the whole place off as hell in a handbasket.

Date: Saturday, January 5, 2008
Violation: Terms of Service: Gambling
Region: TROPICANA
Description: Wagering item.

Date: Saturday, January 5, 2008
Violation: Disturbing the Peace: Parcel Encroachment
Region: Campbell Plateau
Description: Prims overlapping other plots.
Action taken: Suspended 1 days.
I'll bet you anything this has something to do with skyboxes. There are always skybox issues with regards to overlap. Up 500 meters into the sky, you can't tell where your parcel ends and another begins. Chances are, I'll bet the person who filed this was passive aggressive who never even bothered to confront the offender first.
I find SL is full of people like this. If you're going to hate me, just out and say it. I'm an adult, I can handle it if I add one more person to the four billion that hate me. It's okay, really.

More spam.
This 4 hour police blotter jog has opened my eyes. I now know I can report people for placing ads. I know the gambling ban is about as effective as the War on Drugs. And I learned that it's really annoying copying and pasting and formatting the blotter into blogger.
