Fox Reports gets an update with lots of new exciting features

Fox Reports began as a monitoring system for SkyBeam Sandbox. It was used to be able to file notes and reports about various people who caused mischief or broke the rules with repeated infractions leading to land or estate banning as appropriate, with the ability for all of the sandbox 'guardians' to have access to each others' reports. The system has a number of features geared towards making this information easily accessible by all admins without having the installation or trust network issues incurred with something like banlink.


I spoke to EriX Oh the creator or fox reports about the changes:


dana Vanmoer: What is FoxReports?
EriX Oh: A service for filing internal abuse reports and also managing Estates, via a webpage.
dana Vanmoer: Can you tell me some of the changes?
EriX Oh: - System supports multiple bots - that means, if someone has a sim in a different grid (like Beta), they can manage them too using FoxReports, and more "Bot-load-balance"
 - Scripting API support - means you can write your own programs/scripts (LSL does the job too) using FoxReports (Documentations will be released soon)
- Entire Server (!) replaced.... faster page load, faster line
- Entire Database revamped.... more flexible for future features
the system now also FULLY supports encryting: by adding an 's' next to the http - https://foxreports.lu
dana Vanmoer: Its even more secure?
EriX Oh: Yup, all clients get https free... (along with http)
dana Vanmoer: So a lot has changed?
EriX Oh: one thing remains the same..... the PRICES


Even more exciting are the new features which allow for estate level controls from the web. For any estate manager or owner who has ever been at an event and had to leave to go ban someone or restart a laggy region, the ability to launch a web browser and handle the situation remotely is a huge blessing. It further enables one to react to situations when not even logged into Second Life, like when one is stuck at work, for example. This also gives you the ability to give additional managers the estate level controls, even if they aren't Estate Managers in game, thus extending your management team beyond the normal 10 alloted.
