Sorry, but the whole "sleep" punishment is a typical Linden way to "solve" things that just never will work. Whatever you try to solve that way (ie have people pay L$ 10 for freebies to 'encourage' them to not list them; or use a punisher multiplier on LSL scripts to 'encourage' people not to use them etc etc, STOP. That is NOT the way. You don't even have to think about it, it just is NOT the correct way to solve whatever problem you have. So, yes, adding any "sleep" to any of the functions should never have happened in the first place. Look again at what the problem REALLY is, and then solve the problem at the core instead of making the life of people miserable with artifacts hoping that they'll be forced (out of misery) into doing things in a different way: First: method A sucks 10. method B sucks 20. people use method A. Linden Lab wants people to use method B. The correct solution would be to make method B suck only 5. The solution that Linden Lab chooses is to make method A artificially suck 40... The end result is that SL will suck, and people will leave. -- Carlo Wood <[email protected]> _______________________________________________ Policies and (un)subscribe information available here: http://wiki.secondlife.com/wiki/SLDev Please read the policies before posting to keep unmoderated posting privileges
