Sun Microsystems created a sandboxin Second Life, to attract traffic and "be cool" to residents.
The problem is, a self-proclaimed sheriff, code-named Samuri Zabelin (in real life a 22 year old UK geek) kicks people outof the sandbox for fun...
Very bad impact on the company's image.

Strange guy this Samuri Zabelin.
He has an avatar shaped as a fox and has a SL 'partner' who is in furry too. Could be zoophiles in real life?

Well, this is samuri :)

I must point out, that Mr "Anomynous" is the only person that appears to have a compaint against me so far, considering I handle 1000's of customer requests and orders each month!

Why would you feel the need to post yourself as anomynous? Lol If you have a problem, why not come and talk to me about it?

Yours,
Sam
