Using Firestorm, these are the screen shots of what I get. But that is expected behaviour for me. I live in a prohibited State. ETA: Tried with the Official Viewer also with the same result.

Phil Deakins Posted August 28, 2014 Share Posted August 28, 2014 That identical to what I, and I believe Stormie, got (except that I didn't look at the sim's profile), and we don't live in a prohibited state. We both live in the UK and have PIOF (though mine mist have expired). We still haven't discovered anything common about those who can't get in the sim. Perhaps it really is to do with not having entered payment info relatively recently. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My alt account's payment info was made yesterday. Both can enter skilled gaming regions. So I guess it's not dependent of when the payment info was made.

I posted in part because the "unknown content" message was mentioned but not the failed TP message which does state the reason. I'd be curious if someone who can access Skill Regions sees something in the Place Profile. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I went here: http://maps.secondlife.com/secondlife/Fish%20Bowl/220/128/22 (link given by Phil). I see nothing special in the place profile. In the Access tab nothing else is checked, except the "Allow public access". Covenant tab says: Region: Fish Bowl Type: Estate / Full Region / Skill Gaming Rating: Moderate PS. I spotted Morgan Linden in that region. Wearing a bird avatar. :matte-motes-big-grin: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[Edit] I noticed that Whirly Fizzle has made a bug report: Provide clearer reasons for entry refusal to avatars who cannot access skill gaming regions The problem appears to be accounts that dont' have a real-world address on file as a location. If you added payment information recently (within the last couple of years) your billing address was automatically recorded in SL but the earlier system of adding payment info didn't record your address. I have some alts that can access skill game regions and some that can't due to this. There's an option for adding your address manually as well but Whirly's alt seemed to still have problems.

It's not that. LL has my RL address. I just checked and it shows up in my account. I entered it so long ago that I don't remember when. So the problem isn't due to the absense of an RL address.

Right. It cannot be problem about the address. It's not UK problem either. Whirly Fizzle told what happpens with her accounts (she's in the UK). https://jira.secondlife.com/browse/BUG-7097 All required details are filled for both of her accounts. Her main account can go to skill gaming regions, her alt account cannot go there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stormie Windlow Posted August 29, 2014 Author Share Posted August 29, 2014 Today I tried an alt that hasn't bought lindens since 2008 and got in fine with no issues. Stormie, with the exact same settings, bought lindens yesterday and still cannot get in. So I think its just pot luck, random...it either lets you in, or it doesn't. I finally got in, but don'ttttt go out there..its bedlam :smileyvery-happy: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SeaSparrow Posted September 6, 2014 Share Posted September 6, 2014 I had the same issue last weekend. I met all the requirements but could not enter gaming regions. I cleared my credit card information, re-entered it then relogged and got in fine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
