Facebook / Pinterest Style Abuse Report Options and modernized Abuse Reporting Options and categories
7/22/2025 a wave of group scammers hit SEVERAL popular groups in attempts to get people to click on phishing links. ALL using the same phishing link. I Request that you take serious consideration of updating the user interface of the viewer and require third party viewers to do the same. in 2025 we face ever emerging threats and misuse online not only from Bad Actors but from AI and other Automated Programs, what worked in 2007 is not adequate in 2025 one has to think of Past Bad Actors and Threats to the Second Life Platform as well as Current and Possible Emerging threats. Technology is changing at a rapid pace and so are the bad actors. keep up! in recent months you have championed Second Life, its Content, its users, the mobile app and have taken several steps to encourage long time users to stay and to attract new ones, If you DONT make concrete efforts to STOP the scam links inworld NEW USERS who might be affected by a bad link may not return and speak unfavorably about second life further more longtime users affected by them Also may not return. i suggest. 1) Facebook/Pinterest Style and options for Abuse Reporting 2) New Categories for Abuse Reporting 3) SUB Categories for Each Abuse Report 4) Each Category and Subcategory should CLEARLY STATE what it does. 5) Abuse Reporting Should Easily Be Found and Available in ALL groups, Group Chats, AD-HOC Chats, Conferences Etc. 6) Links Posted within a group chat should "die" / Become unclickable after a specified time ( set by group owners and moderators) as well as after you close out the chat or group) weather by choice, accident or crash. 7) group owners and moderators should have the ability to allow or disallow link posting group chat or the ability to control who can withe a few clicks within group. 8) Facebook Style Group Moderator Tools 9) the abiltity to report Profiles ( information and images ) I have provided screenshots in the first photo i show the EXISTING AR options the following ones are screenshots from FB and Pinterest as suggestions on what the community needs.

Animesh QoL Improvements: Enabling Click and Mouse Hover Detection on Animesh Objects
We should be able to trigger a left-click on an animesh object when the mouse is hovering over it, and the left mouse button is pressed. The viewer should also detect mouse hovering over animesh objects. This functionality is almost fully implemented, with references to the debug setting AnimatedObjectsAllowLeftClick and the variable pick_rigged across several files. Currently, this debug setting is forced to false in the source code due to concerns about FPS drops. However, there is no FPS drop associated with clicks, and the FPS drop caused by hovering can be addressed. I made this request three years ago, and it was accepted, nearing inclusion in the official viewer code. However, it was ultimately cancelled because someone at the Lab mentioned: "In scope of hover I suggest using cached variant of settings LLCachedControl, it is fine to get value on clicks, but hover is going to be calling it way too often." Unfortunately, this approach was never implemented. Was there another issue that caused the cancellation? I never received any further updates on this request. I attach (or will, the upload file system here doesn't work very well) the updated files, where you will find my changes marked with the following comments: Edit: Uploading files here (.cpp and .h) works randomly, about 1 time out of 10. I decided to upload them to Google Drive instead, accessible here: https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1uYtoYmLIe-jsQfOTg_BIywcIJRE8EU2x?usp=drive_link // [-- Click-Hover-AltZoom Animesh --] ..... // [-- /Click-Hover-AltZoom Animesh --] Edit 2: I forgot to mention that I've been using my FireStorm version with my code for over 3 years now without any issues. Of course, the files I’m uploading here are based on the latest SecondLife official viewer (7.1.11.242541623).
