Linden Lab Issue ID: DEV-7096


 Description  « Hide
Currently, there is a huge problem with blue dialog menus being used for griefing. These steal focus, making it impossible to do anything. The focus stealing is a seperate issue, but even if that is fixed, it doesn't prevent the problem.

Like with inventory offers, we need a mute button on URL dialogs, generated by llLoadUrl, so that the offender can be quickly and easily muted. This is especially important in the (very common) cases where the owner has been banned, and you thusly cannot search their profile to mute them. It should be noted that this button should mute the owner of the object, not just the object itself.Otherwise griefers will simply employ multiple objects to spam urls.

I've marked this issue as a bug, because this is a massive and gaping security flaw. It should not be considered a new feature to fix such an issue, that allows people to be crippled.

I can't believe there are no comments on this issue. A mute button on ALL dialogs is a must, and they should not be allowed to steal focus.

The dialogs also need a mute-owner button if the object is not the owners'.

Mute Owner on dialog should be out of the way, say small and upper right hand corner of the dialog, and require confirmation.

An annoying point, is that llLoadURL cannot be muted. Therefore, this issue is useless until VWR-3558 is also implemented.

The blue dialogs really need reworking. If you have multiple blue dialogs you need to be able to look at them as a list, like so:

[x] Notice: Some Group: Start of group notice text...
[x] Animation: "Some object" wants to animate your avatar
...

(Mark all) (Unmark all) (Cancel all marked) (View marked)
