Can't see certain people in Local Chat

[Kia Kiyori]

I'm helping a friend with her club - a couple of nights ago while a singer was performing, two of us in the crowd couldn't see the boss saying anything in local (only the boss, no one else), but we could receive her IM's just fine. Everyone else could see her chatting in local though, which is odd.

Today, it's the same thing, but with another staff member - once again, can't see anything he says in local but can receive his IM"s just fine.

Found a thread from 2013 talking about griefer objects, but I've got nothing in spam at all, nor have I changed any settings since I installed the new FS Viewer.

Can see announcements from music streams just fine in local and other peoples' comments, etc - just not the boss + one other staff member. I could read his local chat convos just fine yesterday, though, so something's clearly going on.

At this rate, if one staffer a day goes missing from local and then patrons one by one, we will - rather quickly - be up the creek without a paddle. 

Just wondering if anyone else is experiencing the same thing lately?

*update: According to Zoha Islands peeps, it's an SL bug - or - the latest FS update bug thingy and not just us.

This is still happening to me (the boss she mentioned lol). I log in and enter a room and things are fine, i can see everyone typing and they can see me. Then after a while, its as though gradually, one by one, people cant see what im typing. I can see it, but no-one else can, and i can see what everyone else is typing too. IM works fine though. Every time i restart firestorm, it fixes things for a little while and then it starts happening again, usually after about 30 minutes. I'm trying to run a club, this is NOT helping.
