Still broken after all these years

[Qwalyphi Korpov]

Okay - it's only been two months but....

It's been two whole months

and the thing where you login at the forums and get dropped into the blogs is still happening.

[Coby Foden]

Yes. I mentioned about that "dropped into the blogs" in this BUG report, created on April 4, 2015:

https://jira.secondlife.com/browse/BUG-8953

Maybe they aren't going to do anything about that one?
The random signed out thing seems mostly been fixed though (in my experience).

[KarenMichelle Lane]

That's the new default landing page after login... Weeeee

At least the auto log out issue is fixed. That was way more annoying.

Linden Lab wants us to wear our mouses with one more extra click when we want to go to the forums.

[Pamela Galli]

They clearly want to break the forum enough to make us all abandon it -- it costs them money and is of no benefit to their bottom line.

I am sure they have driven some off.  Those left are of sterner stuff.  :matte-motes-angry:

I know.  You'd think anyone responsible for fixing the problem would have it fixed by now.  How difficult can it be.  I mean - the LL wouldn't put someone incompetent  in charge of an area would they.  On  the other hand the LL does clearly let things wait until the responsible person returns from being away... like if they  were on vacation.

You're entitled to your OPINION about what's more annoying.

But that's not what this thread is all about - it's about sumptin' broken for two whole months and still not fixed.

I'm thinking either you are joking or you are wrong.

Let's just talk about where you are wrong.

When a person is viewing an area of the 'Community' and decides to login they should land back in the area they were in.  Not some favorite of yours.

Suppose someone was reading the latest blog posting by the LL.  Then they login.  And land in answers?   I suppose they would be in the right place to ask why there weren't landing back where they were.  So while that makes you a tiny bit right it also makes you hugely wrong.

See?

Surely not...

Now three whole months

and the thing where you login at the forums and get dropped into the blogs is still happening.

Unless you use a Greasemonkey fix.

Dude, there are significant bugs in SL that are older than most of our children. Do you think LL cares about those?

I'm surprised you  dragged our children into this but now that you have - if one of them was viewing this thread before logging in and clicked on reply.... they'd get taken to login and then dumped into the blogs.  Then they'd have to find their way back here to select the thread again and then hit reply again.  We're talking about our children here.  Having to click reply two times in order to reply one time.  LL should care.

[Pamela Galli]

Think of the children, LL!

 

Do they really deserve this abuse? Does anyone?

[Sassy Romano]

They don't care about the children, it might be better to threaten them with a picture of a ... nipple!

(or maybe a word in the Marketplace naughty word list filter, THAT really gets their attention)

[Qwalyphi Korpov]

Now six whole months

and the thing where you login at the forums and get dropped into the blogs is still happening.

 

[Canoro Philipp]

the idea behind getting dropped into the blogs is that if there is an announcement by Linden Lab, you probably don't want to miss it, so they do you that extra favor to help you keep in touch with the latest Linden Lab announcements.

:smileylol: It seems that way.

Actually it's a bug and it bugs the Lindens as well;

[Canoro Philipp]

I thought I read it somewhere, maybe some bugs can be features, being look at in another way.

like invisiprims.

[Sassy Romano]

It's certainly not a feature when you're already logged in, press reply and are then redirected to login again and then dumped at the blog.

 

That's just incompetence.

[Canoro Philipp]

i agree, it bothers me too, i have a bookmark in my browser to General Discussions, i have to come here, log in, then click the bookmark to return to where i intended.

which remembers me that the feature of remembering you so you dont have to log in again needs to be fixed too.
