Ok so you have 10 computers at home (I don't see how that's possible but whatever), So that's 990L (10L for the actual avatar you use) that you've exploited. Congratulations. You've wasted about $10 of electricity, about 10 minutes time transferring the L over, for 1000L, which is roughly $4. Bots don't use viewers so an average computer can run a large number of them - provided that the user's bandwidth can support them - they each continually receive a surprising amount of data. I have over 70 of them that I could have logged in simultaneously for a short time, or even in groups, without costing me a cent more than normal. If I'd known about the 10L each, I wouldn't have done it though because the total amount I could have got wasn't attractive enough. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just find it odd how they picked and chosed who gets it? . My alt logs in more than I do because he runs a service. I logged in and out several times and he didnt. I think Only twice lol. I am a Premium member and my alt is not. So it is safe to say that not even all premium members got it lol. Nothing special to it :matte-motes-big-grin-wink: Maybe an avatar had to be logged in for a certain amount of time to be 'registered' for the gift. I have 2 avs logged in most of the time I'm awake every day. One is premium and the other is basic. They both got the 10L. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nomi Sirnah Posted February 16, 2013 Share Posted February 16, 2013 this "special gift" was a joke. Honestly LL shouldn't have bothered... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If bots were run legit (scripted agents) I bet they were exempt from the "gift." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I literally just logged in to register, wasn't on for more than a minute, then logged out. I got mine! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
