The bot that allows tourists to put a password on their objects - is that
available in a way that only allows them to use it in that manner and no
other way? For example, no speed building, copying, listening in on
conversations, etc.? A protect a tourist build with a password only bot?

[View Quote] Speed building can be limited.
I don't know what do you mean under "copying" and how to restrict that one.
Same goes for the "listening in on conversations" - would you elaborate please?

The March newsletter will have an article on that bot, meanwhile read the following web pages for more details:

I'm interested allowing a bot in my world who's only function would be to
protect tourist builds from non-deletion.

Can such a thing be done 1) by world configuration 2) is there such a bot
available?

Let me clarify I am not asking for such a bot to be built. Just wondering
if one exists.

I am asking if world settings allow only one certain kind of bot or is it
generalized to a yes or no to any and all bots.

Add only your own citnum to the bot rights then no one els can enter a bot
into your world.

Yes John. I don't want any other kind of bot in use in the world though.
Is my idea possible?

Yes, just give yourself bot rights and don't use any other bots besides the
awnewbie one.

Andras' Guardbot is a bot that can protect tourist builds completely,
including enroachment, modification, and deletion. It will be available for
download soon hopefully at www.andras.net (I am a beta tester)

Your welcome!
