Question
Dana Enyo
I hope someone on the SL Server Side sees this, because it makes ZERO sense to me and could be important!
Today someone IMd me with a question about a SL group (of about 450 members including me). I had no idea, and she said that I should, because I am the OWNER of the group. I checked, and sure enough, there's my name!
Nobody ever asked or informed me this was happening. My only guess is that the FOUNDER of the group was also named Dana (their display name); perhaps when they closed their account the server went looking for them and found me?? I have no clue when the Ownership transfer took place, but today is the first time I've ever received the kind of IM that might go to an Owner or Officer, so it can't have been too long ago.
Anyway, I'm posting this here because if it happens elsewhere, and someone suddenly got ownership of a group with physical assets (this group doesn't), there could really be some real problems caused by innocent errors or confusion, or purposeful mischief. I'm going to jump in and do the best I can to run the group responsibly, but this was a complete surprise.
Has anyone ever heard of this happening before?
