E.g., the products might have the wrong Maturity Rating, or they don&#8217;t use Variations correctly. In such cases, users can now report these problems to us by clicking the\u00a0<strong>Report product<\/strong> link in the product page:<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.kitely.com\/virtual-world-news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/05\/report-product.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-2277 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/www.kitely.com\/virtual-world-news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/05\/report-product.png\" alt=\"Report Product\" width=\"978\" height=\"224\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.kitely.com\/virtual-world-news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/05\/report-product.png 978w, https:\/\/www.kitely.com\/virtual-world-news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/05\/report-product-300x69.png 300w, https:\/\/www.kitely.com\/virtual-world-news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/05\/report-product-768x176.png 768w, https:\/\/www.kitely.com\/virtual-world-news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/05\/report-product-624x143.png 624w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 978px) 100vw, 978px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>We&#8217;ll investigate these reports and take appropriate action if necessary. In most cases we&#8217;ll just contact the merchant and ask him or her to fix whatever needs to be changed. But in more serious cases (e.g., copyright infringement) we may suspend the product, which means that it will no longer be visible in Kitely Market.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Resend Items to Other Avatars<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>When you purchase items in Kitely Market, you can\u00a0choose which avatar will get these items using the\u00a0<strong>Deliver To<\/strong> setting in the shopping cart. Unfortunately, sometimes people mistakenly deliver their purchases to the wrong avatar.\u00a0We&#8217;ve repeatedly <a href=\"https:\/\/www.kitely.com\/virtual-world-news\/2015\/05\/25\/secure-browsing-and-better-hypergrid-support-in-kitely-market\/\">tweaked how the Deliver To setting works<\/a>\u00a0in order to try and minimize these mistakes, but occasionally people still forget to change this setting. When this happens they often approach us about their mistake and ask us to redeliver the items to the avatar that they had intended to buy them for.<\/p>\n<p>Until today, our only recourse was to refund their purchase, instruct them how to properly configure the Deliver To setting for\u00a0their desired avatar, and then hope that they&#8217;ll reorder the items with the correct configuration. However, as this process can be cumbersome, sometimes people didn&#8217;t reorder after they&#8217;ve received the refund, so they ended up without the items that they wanted, and the merchant lost out on a sale. Therefore, we&#8217;ve added a feature that allows us to fix these\u00a0problems by redelivering the items directly to the desired avatar, without refunding the original transaction or requiring the buyer to reorder. This streamlined process makes fixing these problems quick and easy.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Other Improvements<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>When you\u00a0search Kitely Market, we make sure to show you\u00a0only products that match your account&#8217;s Maturity Rating. E.g., for a user whose maturity rating is set to &#8220;Moderate&#8221;, we show only products with a maturity rating of &#8220;General&#8221; or &#8220;Moderate&#8221;, but not products whose maturity rating is &#8220;Adult&#8221;. In addition, users can choose a maturity filter in their Kitely Market search. For example,\u00a0a user with an account maturity rating of &#8220;Moderate&#8221; might\u00a0select to search only for products whose maturity rating is &#8220;General&#8221;. In that case, we only show &#8220;General&#8221; products.<\/p>\n<p>However, until now this filter didn&#8217;t apply to the\u00a0<strong>ads<\/strong> that we show at the top of Kitely Market searches. So in the example above, the user could still see ads for products with a maturity rating of &#8220;Moderate&#8221;. But starting today, we\u00a0also limit the ads to the maturity rating that was selected in the search filter.<\/p>\n<p>And finally, we&#8217;ve updated the default viewer that we offer to new users to Firestorm 4.7.7.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>We updated our system today with an all-new Viewer Login Page.
