But all powerful companies have damn expensive lawyers. I dont want to see LL fall, but there is a possibility if they dont look into this matter, that they will lose a HUGE section of their userbase (regaining it after everyone who once knew is gone or some such) and if they have stock holders, this is certainly shitty PR.

My advice to LL is to investigate the matter, ban the main players, black list their scripts, IP's EVERYTHING, disband the group and FIX THE EXPLOIT.

My advice to Kalel is to stop brooding obsessively over people. it's not healthy. he probably has CSI-esq maps in his basement where he has a hitlist as well. I wouldnt be surprised. this ammount of stalking translates into a VERY psychotic obsession.

ANother thing. SL itself is virtual reality. it is not real. While some people choose to be temselves on SL, others decide to RP in different manners. EVERYONE (save for bots) is a HUMAN BEING BEHIND THE KEYBOARD. You have NO right to treat them like animals to be tracked. You have NO right to gather their information like youre going to make a National Geographic documentary on their lives.

Edited to point out that: Griefers act that way because theyre anon. Just because theyre disruptive in SL doesnt mean they are disruptive IRL. I dont see how you cant understand that. There is a difference between SL and RL. SL is PART of RL. and vice versa. But SL IS NOT RL.

WE ALL deserve the same rights. YOU ARE NOT ABOVE THE LAW.

This is one of those times that LL needs to use the "we will ban your account for any reason we want" clause.

The JLU have become a liability, collectively.
Cull the herd.
