This user creates a number of accounts on grids, often with "Mario" somewhere in the name. With so many smaller grids springing up as a result of OpenSimulator's maturity as a platform, I expect that the griefing issue may increase due to grid operators being unaware of this situation. He can be stopped by using a combination of the methods I mentioned earlier coupled with diligence from grid administrators.
Ai, I'm not a developer, but might be able to shed some light on your comments: 1 - It's not uncommon for physical objects to "hang" outside the region's boundaries. In fact, it wasn't very long ago that was a way to reliably crash a region. This behavior also exists/existed in SL, although it seems less of a factor there these days. It is, however, a trivial matter to place objects whose geometric center is outside of the 256x256 area of a region in OpenSim. 2 - Yes, you have an emitter somewhere. Deleting all objects with his UUID as creator should not be an issue. 3 - Did you delete the items, or return them? Both you guys shouldn't worry. A visit from this guy simply means you've hit the big time! XD On Wed, Dec 18, 2013 at 10:05 AM, Shaun T.
