Is this how he got the bed?

July 5, 2007 8:12 am

I’m still not sure if the ‘offending bed’ is actually a copy or a remake. But if it is a copy of the original SexGen bed, a comment on Mr. Evan’s blog mentioned that this could be done with D35V-bot (or Desu-bot), a more advanced version of the infamous copybot.

I don’t know if the D35V-bot actually exists, is capable of doing such things or was used for creating the offending bed, but on - griefers for fun, if you are broadly offended by that, just don’t click the link - ‘Voter 5, Profoky Neva Fails‘ *little giggle* Hazim Gazov says:

The main difference between the original CopyBot and the D35V-Bot, is the fact that it exploits a bug in the way SL works to obtains the scripts, textures, AND scripts, regardless of any permissions on said objects or scripts. the D35V-Bot has just passed the testing phase, and multiple copies are now being deployed on the grid, aggregating all objects as I speak. I can’t list all of the limitations and additional features of the D35V-Bot, as it would take multiple pages, hours, and perhaps Prokofy Neva’s aid to write it all.

Admittedly, I only heard second-hand that D35V-bot was involved, but, given the information you’ve dug up on what it does, it sure sounds plausible.

Oh, and feel free to call me Erbo now that we’re out of the SLelections thing; everybody else does. :-)

Yeah, this *sounds* kinda-sorta could happen, though I imagine that the scripts are only server side, which means if this bot does exist it is a *definite* exploit.

Scripts themselves *should* only be on the server side, with their effects on the client side seen. In a case where someone attempts to edit the script, the server is supposed to challenge permissions. If there is an exploit there, then lawyer happy people everywhere will be pinging Linden Lab. But probably not, if we consider the landbot issue.

It’s still a weak legal filing, though, in that they haven’t demonstrated that the ’similar’ bed was actually a ‘copy’.

oh whats the problem with others amking beds?
rufftuff has a bed just as good if not better for 1000l.
bondage beds at devpose same type of bed but has some other options. 1500L.
A box filled wirth over 127 sex animations full perms 6000l.
for under 10,000lindens a person could make their own bed and sell them for dirt cheap and make their money back and then some by flooding the market with them.
wake up people you dont corner the market now and people will under cut you and people will go to the place that sells for cheaper.
With the huge risk these days of losing a 10′000L sexxgen bed I would go to the cheaper store too.Besides why pay that much whn the market is being flooded with good quality beds or mattresses for a tiny fraction of the cost?
Two choices lower your price or go out of business. Simple as that
