sirhc DeSantis Posted April 6 Share Posted April 6 Peeve - Available LI has gone up, frame rate has gone up, the SLB theme has piqued my interest, MP is burbling nicely towards a renewal and the latest LL viewer performs rather well on my potato PC.

Scylla Rhiadra Posted April 7 Share Posted April 7 (edited) So this isn't really a peeve, although I suppose I could rephrase it in such a way that it sounds like one . . . You know how we keep telling people who post with complaints and issues about SL here that posting in the forums accomplishes nothing, because "Lindens don't read the forum"? True, so far as it goes (although I do continue to believe that Lindens do read the posts here). But also this, right? And especially this: "Please send me the slurl for the Linden Homes parcel via a private message and I'll make sure it's investigated." Thank you, @Quartz Mole. I know you're not a substitute, obviously, for an AR, and that you're not on Governance (unless of course, you're undercover, which, really, you sort of look as though you might be!), but this kind of proactive response is greatly appreciated!

One way to achieve the illusion that the moderators are silently monitoring the forums, is to silently report posts we believe are inappropriate. No saying, "Reported" or "In Before The Lock" and no posts thanking the mods for commenting on or locking a thread. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Personally, that's my vote also. Note that there was a trend awhile back when people wrote "Reported" as a joke. (I personally always have trouble telling if "IBTL" is meant jokingly or not. I think it acts as a "jinx!".) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A rocket is like a giant obelisk, and the moon is the female aspect. Ironically, Osiris rose from the dead with his arms crossed, like an X, and this eclipse is being called the “X” eclipse." Nothing breaks up a boring old Monday afternoon better than a "sex magic ritual," says I! 1 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You may be right, but I choose to believe that Quartz was just flipping through the forums while sipping his coffee, and recognized that his special skill set was needed. If a post is reported, that guarantees one of us will read it. Additionally, we browse the forums out of interest, and also keep a proactive eye on threads that look as if they may require attention, whether because of the topic or because they're unusually active. Other Lindens and Moles read the forums, too, when they have the time and the inclination, but there's obviously no guarantee anyone will see a particular post, which is why posting about something in the forums really isn't the best way to get anyone to do anything about it. That's what support tickets, abuse reports, user groups and Canny are for. 6 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
