Vandalizing Questioned... // CommunitykryptMar 23, 2000, 8:19pm
Although this is probably a dumb question to ask, how do people
vandalize buildings in Active Worlds if they are protected by the server? I mean is that possible? birdmikeMar 24, 2000, 3:41am
>From my experience (being vandalized), people build in the free space all
around the buildings, with rude things like flames, and ugly objects. They build around the building, not in it. -- -Mike Nelson- goober kingMar 24, 2000, 3:41am
They aren't protected by the server. "Vandalizing" someone's property
means littering someone's land with signs and other assorted junk (huge flames seem to be a favorite). The only way you can protect yourself from this is by covering all of the land you intend to use with objects (huge walks built underground work nicely).

what my problem was, was as a world owner, i hadn't set up a registry.
So that meant Users could come in and build on top of other peoples builds (encroach). Now that I have the registry done, I am no longer in such danger (thanx to andras again for the reggen). Vandals=1 Zero=2.... why 2, cause 1: ya cant do it no more, and 2: 'cause i caught ya in the act and ejected your A.. umm butt. [View Quote] |
