Nika Talaj Posted March 19, 2020 Share Posted March 19, 2020 News about Bellisseria can be gleaned in several places other than the forums - most notably in Bellisseria Citizens inworld chat. But also in interviews, labgabs, blog posts, etc.. In the forums, these get mentioned in the "When did you last see a" thread (aka the Hoppers Thread), occasionally in the SSP thread. THIS thread, if people care to use it, is for all of us to report when we see/read/hear, first hand, news relating to Belli coming from Lindens or Moles. It is NOT for speculations by me or even Inara Pey or Daniel Voyager! It's also not for discussion (much) of the news. Just the facts, ma'ams, Just the Facts. (Heck, I'M not even old enough to know that reference!) I'm hoping people can follow this to hear the latest "From the Horse's Mouth" news about Belli. Obviously it won't be at the top of the Most Recent Posts threads very often, so following it might work best. I'll start it out with the most recent news, earlier today, from @summernightsdream : 5 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Garnet Psaltery Posted March 19, 2020 Share Posted March 19, 2020 I'm sorry, but you're applying a plaster over a problem that needs to be addressed by Linden staff. Why should anyone have to pass on official information from resident sources? 5 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sugary Bard Posted March 19, 2020 Share Posted March 19, 2020 Just the facts, ma'ams, Just the Facts. (Heck, I'M not even old enough to know that reference!) It comes from Dragnet and you're making me feel old, lol! (My mom watched it.) I hope this works, thanks! 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why should anyone have to pass on official information from resident sources? Yup. Why? Because LL evidently WON'T use official channels for these crumbs of news, for reasons of their own that may or may not be good reasons. Who knows?

Female Winslet Posted March 19, 2020 Share Posted March 19, 2020 Because Linden's participate in conversations. (Yay!) And they inevitably drop a little bit of information along the way. That doesn't mean every word they say should be posted. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RaeLeeH Posted March 20, 2020 Share Posted March 20, 2020 Also doesn't mean every word they say shouldn't be posted (The entire tabloid/press/news media industry flourishes on this very thing promoting the cult of celebrity in the real world, and aren't the Lindens and Moles of celebrity status here in the virtual world in a manner of speaking?) If you listen to the chatter in the Belli groups (and generally in the forums) there's an awful lot of speculation and misreading of what is said by Lindens and Moles as much as there is reading between the lines on what is not said. On top of that these same groups (and threads) generally get bogged down with noise that wander off topic that some like me have no patience to wade through so it's nice to have "just the facts" to cut through all of that. With so much development and the endless workload for the LDPW I'm not at all surprised that they aren't releasing official announcements with every little detail they drop like crumbs along the way. I dare say they simply don't have the time for that. The communication between LL and Residents has vastly improved over recent months/the last year or so which is awesome to see and on occasion take part in but like anything no doubt there's always room for improvement. Looking forward to see what facts are collected here sans noise. And now I shall slink back into the shadows since I don't have anything official to say. Because I'll likely be called out for contributing to the aforementioned noise... *cough* 😏 8 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sylvia Tamalyn Posted March 20, 2020 Share Posted March 20, 2020 Hopefully whatever is shared here is more accurate than some of the stuff said in the in world group. There have been some issues with people giving out inaccurate "official" info, which is one reason I pay very little attention to the group chat these days. 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beth Macbain Posted March 20, 2020 Share Posted March 20, 2020 I worry that what is posted here will not be what a Linden/Mole actually said but someone else’s (mid)interpretation of what they said. This is a well-intended idea, but could easily turn into a spit-show of, “Well, Patch said the next theme is igloos” followed by, “But Abnor said the next theme is Hobbit houses!” And then someone gets fired. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alwin Alcott Posted March 20, 2020 Share Posted March 20, 2020 it shows only that the marketing and info system used by LL after 17 years still isn't working.. or even exists. All the years it's done by someone dropping some info ..start big... and than the info source dies. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Elena Core Posted March 20, 2020 Share Posted March 20, 2020 (edited) Thank you Nika for creating this thread. I know that what I'm going to say is part of my response to the situation we're living in Spain, and all the tension. But I really don't get why the LH Update post is not being used for log cabins updates; it has been another resident's decision to create a specific post.... As I mentioned in another thread, first comes first, and top priority is any LL employee to get ready for what it was to come in the US. We'll wait, it's all fine. And I also get in these times we're living, we just have to go with the flow, because a lot of decisions have to be taken depending on the changing environment... But please, when an update is made, use a proper channel . I never pay attention to the chat in world, it's a nightmare to me with all those messages, and LL is fully aware of the expectation the cabins have created. Again, thank you for creating this Nika, it will keep us posted. Edited March 20, 2020 by Elena Core typos 10 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Administrators Patch Linden Posted March 22, 2020 Administrators Share Posted March 22, 2020 This could have been useful, but alas due to the very negative connotation and tone of the thread it seems to have gone off the rails too quickly. 4 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
