We all have different tolerances for stray particles. Some people love particles; some don't. For those who would rather not be bothered by other Residents' excessive particles, particle muting is simple:

Add that Resident to your Mute List.

1. Select View > Mute List from the menus at the top of the Second Life window.
2. Click Mute Resident.
3. Search for the Resident you want to mute and click Select.

The Resident is added to your Mute List. You won't hear chat, receive IMs, or see the particles from any object owned by that Resident until you select their name in the Mute List and click Unmute.

If the Resident is someone you'd rather not mute, but whose particles you'd still rather not see, try politely asking them to turn off their particles around you.

You can also choose to stop yourself from seeing all particles by turning them off in the Preferences window:

1. Select Edit > Preferences
2. Click the Adv. Graphics tab.
3. Set Max. Particle Count to 0.

Muting another Resident or lowering your maximum particle count will prevent you from seeing particles, but it will not affect what any other Resident sees.

Note: If you IM with; Pay L$ to; or Give inventory to someone you've muted, they'll be unmuted, and chat history will inform you what's happened.
