Love Zhaoying Posted February 18, 2023 Share Posted February 18, 2023 14 minutes ago, Luna Bliss said: I am very disturbed -- someone was harassing people on my region yesterday with a demo ding dong. I mean they couldn't even manage to buy one...what has become of griefers these days? It kind of makes sense to me. If they are a griffer Alt, then why waste L$ on the "unreal thing"? But then again, using a Demo is just plain tacky. A Freenis would be more "n00b-like". I guess it "worked" since a demo is even more annoying? I realized halfway through, that you're probably making a "funny-yet-actual-peeve", good show! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Love Zhaoying Posted February 18, 2023 Share Posted February 18, 2023 Peeve: Gave Speedlight.io a try for the first time in awhile (I am a "Gold" member and also take advantage of the PP benefits).. It looks a lot better, with a lot more features than I remember last time I tried.. BUT - I'm not sure it can show "script chat". (At least, it does not show any chat from the attachments my avatar usually wears.) If not, I won't be able to use it for testing my scripts with my alt LoveX! Guess I need to make a prim with a default script, touch it from Speedlight.io, and check that I see "Hello, Avatar!" and "Touched". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LittleMe Jewell Posted February 18, 2023 Share Posted February 18, 2023 Peeve - All of the merchants whose gifts have nothing to do with what they create & sell. IMO, gifts should represent your normal work. After all, aren't they (in theory) trying to entice us to shop at their store? 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yet another - mug choker, bracelet headband Peeved! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scylla Rhiadra Posted February 18, 2023 Share Posted February 18, 2023 (edited) Is it just me, or is SL really awful today? In the last few hours: 1) It's been REALLY slow to load and laggy when it does. 2) Half of my recent purchases disappeared (I got them back by clearing and reloading cache) 3) I've either been unable to TP at all, or I've crashed (twice!) doing it 4) I got a message I've never seen before: "You failed to pay xxxxxx L$60" 5) I now can't log back in. Maybe I should just take the hint and do something else? Edited February 18, 2023 by Scylla Rhiadra 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scylla Rhiadra Posted February 18, 2023 Share Posted February 18, 2023 (edited) NVM. I see it's not just me. This is MOST inconvenient. I HAVE SHOPPING TO DO!!! ETA: As a friend of mine just noted, Saturday seems an odd day for a "scheduled" maintenance, especially one that pretty much crashes everything.

Love Zhaoying Posted February 18, 2023 Share Posted February 18, 2023 Glad I backed up at least some of the things I worked on today..it's been hours so maybe I'll be ok. I wonder if we'll get a heartfelt apology and technical essplanation again, so soon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jordyn McGregor Posted February 19, 2023 Share Posted February 19, 2023 When you are such a hoarder that you box up original packages after you unpack them in boxes by the month you purchase them (ie Jan 23, Feb 23 etc) and you're wanting to add stuff to the Feb box....and its not in the "Box Stuff" folder!!!! So you do an inventory search and it is not there ANYWHERE, so starts the major freak out thinking you have deleted it, along with everything you purchased in February so far...only to finally notice that you already rezzed it ready to start packing. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marigold Devin Posted February 19, 2023 Share Posted February 19, 2023 Peeve: Constantly having to be aware the pavements (sidewalks) are not safe to walk on at any time of the day. Boils my wee wee even more that I failed my first driving test for allowing one wheel to go onto the pavement (during a three point turn) and every single day supposedly qualified drivers disregard the fact pavements are for pedestrians. Obviously their motto is: "Keep death off the road, drive on the pavements!" 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LittleMe Jewell Posted February 19, 2023 Share Posted February 19, 2023 Creators that are too cheap to upload a DEMO version of their BOM clothing, so for outfits that are part BOM and part mesh, all you get in the demo is the mesh part. Just how in the hell do they expect me to judge the BOM parts? That just wiped out a half dozen outfits that I might have bought there. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This really sucks when it is a left turn arrow, because those never last long unless it is a super busy intersection. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
