Marcusgay Lefevre Posted February 14, 2013 Share Posted February 14, 2013 its about this, i just read:http://community.secondlife.com/t5/Featured-News/A-Valentine-s-Gift-for-You-from-Linden-Lab/ba-p/1887539i may "over-reacting" since i usually don´t care about free sent gifts..., but i don´t think this is fair to European residents. Yesterday, 13th February, many residents, especially from Europe had issues to login due to DNS issue.http://status.secondlifegrid.net/2013/02/13/post1887/The issue only was resolved by 7pm SLT. So, those residents who were not able to login while their evening and went to bed, were expected to get up in middle of night according their day time (for me it would have been 04am), to hope the issue is really resolved and to login the last remaining half hour to be eligible to receive the announced gift.A nice promotion for american located residents, not fair to European located residents who experienced this issues yesterday. To announce this promotion one or two days earlier would have made sense, i think...*goes back to his usual work, only 06am here -.-* Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Marcusgay Lefevre Posted February 14, 2013 Author Share Posted February 14, 2013 dunno, sorry, it only gets sent tomorrow midnight... another reason why i don´t understand why the login time was set that short of 12 hours only... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nebula Xaris Posted February 14, 2013 Share Posted February 14, 2013 hello I can not get in Second Life last night Italian time. Last night I said it was a problem with the host name Today, however, tells me that it is a server problem. I tried to disconnect and reconnect the computer and the server, but this problem persists. What can it be? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marcusgay Lefevre Posted February 14, 2013 Author Share Posted February 14, 2013 how is the exact error message you get when trying to login? If it is "Unable to connect to Simulator", try to login at another location... you´d just have to type the region- (sim) name into the start position..., i.e. Radio.

Marcusgay Lefevre Posted February 14, 2013 Author Share Posted February 14, 2013 maybe see, whether this article helps you: http://community.secondlife.com/t5/English-Knowledge-Base/Login-failure/ta-p/700109 It would help a lot to know the error message you get, when trying to log in.

Coby Foden Posted February 14, 2013 Share Posted February 14, 2013 Amazingly I noticed too that I have been given the super generous - big surprise gift - of 10 L$. :smileysurprised: Now I can upload one texture - at full size of 1024 x 1024 pixels - without spending my own money. How cool is that! :matte-motes-big-grin: :smileytongue: Thank you very much indeed Linden Lab.... Hey! You could have put the 10 L$ in a nice cool gift box and sent it to all users. (Sorry for the sarcasm, I know there are people without any money, so the tenner is very nice gift for them.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
