Safety In Second Life
I've been there. I've been harassed.
It's not easy in those times, but Linden Labs has made the living easy.
You can report the person harassing you and they will help!
One word before you start - If you are repeatedly harassed by others, it might be time to take a look at how you are acting toward others. Sometimes we need to readjust our way of communicating, with an inward search of ourselves. Changing our behavior, being more compassionate, gentle, and kind always leads to growth.
Now, with that said, Read on dear friend....
