Griefers are a bad thing but if SL is to grow it needs new users (despite all the cyber sex, no new users are being born as a result).

Agreed. I think it may be best facilitated under a different purpose. Possibly giving constructive freebies/helpful notecards/a starter pack/welcome message to secondlife/location of useful places for starters (Second Life is massive, might as well help give a pick of good locations). I will make one like that right now for my land based on my contributed ideas, it would be fantastic I would think for helping out new users instead of creating a negative feedback like limiting features/access by replacing it with something that provides a positive user experience. --[[User:Nexii Malthus|Nexii Malthus]] 14:59, 30 November 2007 (PST) | |||

With the best of intention the road to hell is paved
I think this is a bad script to have on the wiki, it encourages and facilitates avatar age discrimination. Griefers are a bad thing but if SL is to grow it needs new users (despite all the cyber sex, no new users are being born as a result). Considering that a bad new-user experience will drive users away and the mortality of users, widespread use of this script will only lead to the death of SL. It throws the newbie out with the bath water. -- Strife Onizuka 02:20, 31 October 2007 (PDT)
