I was one of 16,000 people kicked out of Builders Brewery group, caused by SL software glitch.

16,000 members of Builders Brewey found themselves kicked out of the group, it was caused by a SL software glitch. It seems to have activated group security which deals with griefers, flamers etc. Most of those ejected were not online at the time.

It happened overnight (GMT) of Wednesday 19/10/2011.

What is being done to stop this happening again please?

16,000 is a very serious incident and I would suggest that the Group's managers file Tickets with Support.

I doubt it will be ignored. I pray there is a back up :smileysurprised:

Edit: to prevent 16,000 tickets from being filed and LL shooting me.

Sounds more like to me the Scripted Bot they use to monitor their groups did a flip on them.. Only way to automate kicks is by use of bot or scripts.....

Otherwise all ejections are done manually. And even doing it manaually it only allows you to kick 10 at a time

Contact the group owner, they would be the ones to know

I'm howling with laughter at this, Knowl. I think if LL did get 16,000 support tickets the whole grid would implode anyway!

and it would have been all my fault
