If you’re looking for a simple, reliable way to let visitors leave messages in your Second Life build, this Advanced Message Board LSL Script does exactly that—without lag, clutter, or complicated setup.
This script turns any prim into a clean, interactive message board. Visitors can touch the object, write a short message through a dialog and text box, and instantly see it displayed as floating text. Messages rotate automatically, expire after a set time, and stay within defined limits so the board never turns into chaos.
It’s designed for clubs, roleplay sims, shops, community areas, events, churches, galleries, and social spaces—anywhere you want guests to leave notes, thoughts, greetings, or announcements.
How it works (user-friendly by design)
Once the script is dropped into a prim, it’s ready. No configuration required.
When a user touches the object:
A dialog menu appears
They choose Write or Cancel
If they choose Write, a text box opens
The message is posted instantly
The floating text updates automatically and cycles through all stored messages at a steady interval. Visitors don’t need permissions, HUDs, or extra steps. Touch, type, done.
The interface is intuitive enough that even brand-new residents understand it instantly.
Clean rotation, no clutter
Messages rotate automatically at a configurable interval (default: every 5 seconds). Each message displays:
Its position in the list (e.g. “Message 2 of 6”)
The message text
How long ago it was posted (in minutes)
This keeps the board readable and alive without spamming chat or requiring manual controls.
Smart limits that protect performance
This script is built with real Second Life usage in mind, not just theory.
Maximum message length prevents wall-of-text spam
Maximum message count keeps memory usage stable
FIFO cleanup removes the oldest message automatically when the board is full
Automatic expiry system deletes old messages after a set time (default: 24 hours)
No overflowing lists. No runaway memory usage. No need to reset the script daily.
Secure, efficient listener handling
Every interaction uses:
A random negative channel
A per-user listener
A hard timeout to auto-close inactive listeners
This prevents channel collisions, eavesdropping, and listener leaks—problems that plague many cheap message scripts.
Once a user finishes writing (or cancels), the listener is removed immediately.
Perfect for many use cases
This script fits naturally into:
Clubs and lounges (guest messages, shout-outs)
Churches and meditation spaces (prayers, reflections)
Roleplay sims (notices, in-character notes)
Shops and malls (customer feedback, greetings)
Event venues (announcements, guest notes)
Galleries and exhibitions (visitor comments)
Because it uses floating text, it works visually without forcing people to open notecards or chat logs.
Easy to customize (even for beginners)
All important settings are clearly defined at the top of the script:
Message length limit
Total message capacity
Rotation speed
Message expiry time
You can adjust behavior in seconds, even if you’re not an experienced scripter.
For advanced users, the code is clean, readable, and well-structured—perfect for expansion (owner controls, moderation, message deletion, name tagging, etc.).
