Pay attention because there will be a quiz.
1. Set Edit Terrain (Everyone) to Off
2. Set Object Creation to group only. (A private land management group for example)
3. Set Object Entry to Off
4. Set Scripts to Off
5. Set Safe mode (no damage)
6. Set No Push (this does not completely disable pushes, but it makes them less powerful)
7. Set your movelock to make yourself harder to push around. In Firestorm, this is CTRL+ALT+P.
8. The protection from any pushing is to "sit".
9. Set access to group only, or to yourself and a designated approved access list. (Kick out and ban griefers from the group)
10. Set No Fly (makes it harder for griefers to get around quickly)
11. Set Teleport routing to a specific spot (keeps griefers from being able to dodge by local teleporting)
12. Set Object Return to the shortest possible time
13. Turn off avatar visibility in About Land > Options (so griefers outside your parcel can't see you)
14. Do not respond to taunts or threats. REMAIN SILENT!
15. Mute (Block) each griefer
16. Turn off visibility of particles (CTRL_SHIFT_ALT_=)
17. Protect yourself from graphics crashers by limiting the avatar complexity your viewer can render, in Preferences > Graphics. Anything lower than "unlimited" will be fine.
18. Set your preferences to not render media or play sounds attached to other avatars.

Instead of following these recommendations, you better set "allow foreign visitors" to OFF. Disallowing the first 3 will protect your grid adequately. All the rest is just giving your guests a hard time. Don't.

EDITED
I've changed the bullets to numbers to aid the discussion of the points. I'd say these measures are also important to protect your visitors and land without necessarily burdening folks.
5. Set Safe mode (no damage)
6. Set No Push (this does not completely disable pushes, but it makes them less powerful)
12. Set Object Return to the shortest possible time
14-18 are measures are important to protect yourself and have no impact on other people.
As for not allowing foreign visitors, that is what Drump is trying to do. He is banned from my region, I will tell you that!

I will add that to the upcoming Basic Solutions For Drama post, with tips on how to avoid Melodrama, Comedy, Tragedy, and Farce.
