The delay will only fudge the market and is not a fix at all. What happens if there is a 5 min delay but you wait 6 min, or maybe someone watching sees it? Same issue. The way to fix this issue is by creating a "Transfer Land" function for all the people who do not take the time to READ into what they are doing. Basically it will be just like a land sale but worded differently for all the noobs who think that ANYONE means XYZ avatar. I do feel bad for all the people who lost land in this manner, but seriously... the reply is always "I didn't think it could happen!" Time to start THINKING people, wake up a bit and pay attention to what you are doing. It is not the bots that are the problem... it you not THINKING. If bots didn't exist I can guarantee that a human controlled AV would have swooped in 2 seconds later anyways. People who get into car wrecks do not think enough to control their automobile in a safe manner... people who loose land for $1L do not think enough to control their virtual assets in a safe manner. If you put your paypal password online people will empty your account in seconds... why sell land for $1L to ANYONE ??? Really now??? Unfortunate learning experience, though I also believe that Linden should consider setting up some sort of arbitration policy for matters involving larger amounts of $L.
