That all seems to have died down now, though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have a feeling that just on general principle he doesn't like server hacks because of the potential problems (including possibly security) that they can cause. As I recall also sometime during the interview he said that was one of the concerns they had and why before implementing new features that involved some type of manipulation be submitted first for review by LL. Though there may be some who just feel he was blowing wind up everybody's nether regions I don't think he was. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Though there may be some who just feel he was blowing wind up everybody's nether regions I don't think he was. also he see's the need and wants to keep it..that says a lot i think..he's not just looking at it all one sided.. he knows it is helpful to users..i think if he was blowing smoke it would have already been broken in some fix if he didn't want it around.. i mean he put a halt on the server side online status thing because it would break a bunch of stuff and also there is a need.. i just think i will keep doing what he asked..give them the benefit of doubt about wanting to get rid of that old reputation.. i like rodvik and i also understand he can't always be in contact with users all the time..he has to get to work some time..so he has to cut himself off or it will be common practice to go to the CEO's profile when we have an issue... i think he is gonna be the best CEO we have had since philip and maybe even better..we'll have to wait and see.. and OZ..i just believe him and think he wants to do what is best for LL and us..and sometimes the users won't be happy..but i think he is gonna do his best for us that he can..he is limited on things as well as anyone in any job.. i'm just glad the M days are over really..i know i feel a heck of a lot better about now than then lol and rodvik and OZ have a lot to do with that for me in making me feel that way.. it's not always gonna be good news..but hey that's how life works hehehe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ceka Cianci Posted April 26, 2012 Share Posted April 26, 2012 every time i see this video i think of all the things that we used to do to troubleshoot our way through second life..and that the troubleshooting actually became second nature.. then a new fix would come in and throw everyone off balance for few days until we got used to them..to the point that some patches i used to think they were just reusing..because old glitches would come back.. but then you knew how to handle them... lol my rose colored glasses of sl will always be the work arounds we had to do..i wish i could have experienced the workarounds of the days before i came here to..just for good giggles.. this video never gets old for me lol the good old days Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Phil Deakins Posted April 26, 2012 Author Share Posted April 26, 2012 I wasn't watching but I've changed the thread title accordingly. Someone said that they've closed logins again but I just ran one of my bot programmes and the first one logged in without any difficulty. I logged my main in while the going was good and I've been using it to work on a script - editing, testing, and saving without any problems. I haven't tried to TP anywhere though.
