Early discussions on Cyberbuylling within Second Life

AI Highlights
  • - Harassment reporting in Second Life is inadequate.
  • - Doxxing and libel claims spread via social media and in-world notes.
Original review updated Dec 30, 2025

Dear Madam,

I am writing to you to discuss or at least open up a channel to suggest changes to your current reporting system for harassment in Second Life, which is woefully inadequate and not fit for the job it is supposed to do to keep residents safe.

I myself have been subject to a form of online doxxing and libelous intent through a group of people that are currently going around many creators, stating I was part of an AI ripping scheme of content. They are doing this through both Facebook, created webpages, and in-world via notes and through word of mouth, sharing my name and photo of my avatar around SL in retaliation to what I can only refer to as a vindictive motive.

Their accusations are both false and steeped in constant manipulation to fuel and gain more people to serve their cause, and I have many people who will back up this claim.

However, we know this is being done through personal gripes and internal personality clashes; it has now gone too far, and I wish for there to be an investigation made and these people fully held responsible for what they have done.

I am a premium member, and I am finding that people are adding my name to ban lists, and there is no way to contact them or even to discuss matters; the issue at the moment is too inflamed. I have written already to Keira Linden, who has my original email on the matter, stating openly the issues faced, fears that have come to fruition within 48 hours, and what I feel needs changed. Reports in-world have been made; 48 hours later, nothing is done.

It is a total disgrace!!

I have expressed my complaint to have an investigation made on this issue and to have these people banned from the platform, so I can then seek civil actions against these perpetrators. I can only do this once there is final evidence from Linden Labs as part of the evidential claim.

This is not keeping your residents and consumers safe; there needs to be far better and upgraded recognition of cyberbullies using outside social media to create trolling and harassment in-world.

I look forward to your reply.

Loss:
$65

Preferred solution: Discussions in how to improve the service, full investigation of claims made so accurate further legal action can be taken.

User's recommendation: Create more pressure to Linden Labs to update its policy on cyber-bullying and doxxing on its residents by other residents, by abusing Linden labs antiquated and world only orientated report system for harassment, that does not include the use of social media for creating libel, doxxing and other issues back inworld. Whereupon Linden Labs makes a concerted effort to do as their mission statement aims, to keep Second Life users safe to enjoy the grid.

No assistance available being banned from own project

AI Highlights
  • - Banned from my years-long project and unable to reach a resolution.
  • - Suggests Linden Labs provide an assistance line to speak to someone personally.

Banned from very own years long to develop project and have no way so far of reaching a reasonable resolution because I cant actually talk to a person. Perhaps Linden Labs could make an assistance line available to those who do have a special need to be able to speak to someone at the company personally.

Preferred solution: Access always

User's recommendation: Try another way

Permanent deletion of player accounts

stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full
AI Highlights
  • - Billing handles calls; no direct customer support, and I want my accounts deleted.
  • - The agent was polite; the ticket may be answered, but no reply.
Updated by user Jul 28, 2023

I have filed a claim with the Better Business Bureau with no response given other than contacting customer support which refuses to assist in my issue. I have sent proof of privacy violations as well with links to a blog called Virtual-Secrets.com that published my real name as well as a YouTube channel of another user who published private messages.

They considered that as not being enough proof. Absolutely unacceptable.

Original review Jul 28, 2023

Phone call goes to the Billing line, there is no direct number for customer support issues. Person who answered the phone was very polite, claimed that my ticket would be responded to but it has been days without a response still from the support team. All I want is for my accounts to be deleted from their platform, why is that so difficult to do?

Cons:
  • Nonexistent customer service
  • Unsafe environment for players

Preferred solution: Permanent deletion of my accounts and all forum posts from my accounts on their platform.

User's recommendation: Avoid this gaming platform at all cost, customer service is nonexistent

Every new shape failed to find in database

stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full
AI Highlights
  • - The response said no database issues.
  • - Removed antivirus; no deformation yet.
  • - Lag causes teleport connection loss; no Telenor loss yet.

The response to my problem was "We couldn't find any issues with the database." Finally I tried deleting my anti-virus software, so far the shape hasn't deformed but anytime Lag is bad and connection lost during teleport it happens, we'll see if it keeps happening. I haven't lost connection during Telenor yet.

User's recommendation: Give them more options or possibilities as why the problem could be happening instead of the customer trying to figure it out.

Poor customer service and billing staff

stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full
AI Highlights
  • - Linden labs reportedly disable accounts over alleged lies.
  • - The process allegedly warns, suspends, then bans, with no evidence shown.
Updated by user Jun 15, 2020

Issue is still not resolved

Original review May 16, 2020

Second Life is a game created by Linden labs who have ride and billing staff who will disable your account over lies, they have a protocol of warning first then suspension then ban from their services but some the account specialist s jump straight to permanently disabling your account, they don't let you see any evidence so you can not provide your side of the story

Loss:
$4000
Pros:
  • Second life
Cons:
  • Poor customer service and ride bullying staff

Preferred solution: The reactivation of my accounts and an apology

User's recommendation: Avoid this $100 million a year pre tax profit company

Same with mines they took my account

Guest

I was defrauded too. They perma ban people without any warning.

I am willing to accept that I make a mistake by seeming "young" although I'm 39 rl and never walked around in a child avatar. They defrauded me of 20 000L, my premium account which had 11 months left and all my memories, friends. Everything gone...12 years of expenses, memories...Gone.

If they had allowed me to process my credit and given me a partial refund for my premium membership, I would have accepted their decision even if I'm not in agreement with it. They robbed me shamelessly and criminally while playing police and morality.

Unfair blocking

AI Highlights
  • - Support provides no specifics and ignores my evidence; they won't contact me, and I am open to constructive dialogue, and I will seek justice.

Поддержка не дает конкретики, я привожу доказательства того, что я точно не нарушал правил. Но в ответ получаю слова, что было нарушение.

Без каких-либо объяснений, где именно. Поддержка никак не учитывает мои доказательства. Они никак не идут на контакт.

Я полностью открыт к конструктивному диалогу по каждому спорному моменту. Я буду добиваться справедливости, потому что знаю, что правда на моей стороне.

Loss:
$3000

Preferred solution: I want to unlock my account
