//-- paste this code at the top of the script and replace
//--  any calls to llOwnerSay below it with uOwnerSayPlus

uOwnerSayPlus( string vStrMsg ){ key owner = llGetOwner(); if (llKey2Name( owner )){ llOwnerSay( vStrMsg ); //-- single owner that the region still has a handle for }else if (llList2Key( llGetObjectDetails( llGetKey(), [OBJECT_GROUP] ), 0 ) == owner){ llWhisper( 0, "/me : " +vStrMsg ); //-- group owned, must send the message publicly }else{ llInstantMessage( owner, vStrMsg ); //-- single owner, not present, send them an IM } }</lsl>
