Patch Linden

Nope, doesn't seem to have helped much.

Whaaaaaaat?! I didn't do it, he started it!

Remove what top? *scratches his head out of confusion*

I'm not sure what this place was, but it was massive! Unfortunately my up-link was interrupted when I sent to photo.

I looked and the context of your ask is out of scope of what we would offer. The answer on your case is correct. If you would like more details, contact me directly.

What's a >SIM<?!?!?!?! I just came from a region named, Death Ball Arena. It was interesting! Wanna see?

/me waits for someone to say something about the subject.... So far, it's not looking to good based on the last handful of posts.

Incorrect, it is totally possible to gift premium memberships. It's just a difficult, non-automated process that requires out of the norm processing for my team. If you want it done, file a case and ask for it.

Hmmm! Can anyone guess where?

@Ethan Paslong @Marianne Little For your nightstand: https://flic.kr/p/292fZS6

Don't forget about who took that picture for you!

There's nothing private here at all, in fact I'd say it seems like quite the public dispute to me. ?

Did you cheat?! ?

FIXED!

I'm filing a JIRA, like right now!

We have a winner!!!!

Hai! ?

What's a "sim"? I am TOTALLY up to something!

Sorry, I can't be every where at once? There are volumes of information out there that no one person can keep up with. As I said, we can not use Firestorm, so I'm not sure that it's fair I should have specific interest prior to now without it being called out at me. I can only grow and gain knowledge when someone calls it out to me or I stumble upon it myself. As a former content creator myself, I get it. All of it.

@Penny Patton Thank you - By and large I think you are on the same page with us regarding most of what you mention above. We know and understand everything you have on your bullet points. I read the forums and am by and large out and about in the community myself along with many other Lindens. The only thing amiss from all of this? We can not use Firestorm. I did read Beq's wonderful blog post today about LOD (someone pointed it out to me), and also how that tool set works. As a (dormant) content creator myself, I am fascinated by it. It seems we are missing this valuable tool out of our viewer and that's something I'm going to discuss internally coming out of this. I would like very much for us to establish some sort of creation blog, or maybe it's a specific forum to go over everything you mention and hopefully impact the tone of discussion in a positive and meaningful way. I courage everyone on our team to get out and discuss everything we do, because we are open to present what information we do have.

I genuinely love feedback. I have yet to see or have any one suggest to us how you would use your masterful expertise to do any of this differently. As mentioned, please stop and think that we are operating within the confines of the same potentially flawed systems you all very much love to bash and point out. On top of that you trash our content and content creators at a very deep, personal level, who are the very same people so passionately in love with the community and Second Life that they do this all for the love of it in many cases? I shouldn't have to justify our actions, but here is a great example I will share about what happens under the hood. I tell my creators to build to the lowest common denominator and upload all LOD's on most things we do because the majority of Second Life users have what we refer to as 0 spec hardware. Those are the pc's or laptops that have very weak integrated graphics that can't manage to render anything non-collapsed over 1.0 on a good day without suffering through 3 FPS and then normally would only being able to see collapsed content, which is something in many cases we can not afford. We will not have our builds non-view-able by the lowest denominator, they need to be able to see it. Having something like Learning Island and it's builds for example in a collapsed form would be an absolute show stopper for the new user experience. We must avoid the OLOD factor 4.0 epidemic that everyone so wrongly suggests as a setting because it is undeniably the wrong thing to do for so many reasons that I will not debate. Since none of you have any insight in to how we do or why we choose to do things the way we do them, it would be great if you stop trashing the people who quite potentially are also your friends outside of being a Mole. If you feel you have some meaningful way to show us how you would have precisely done anything, any better than we have, I'm all ears. Four of them as so pointed out to be exact. I invite you to come talk to us, and hopefully in a much better atmosphere than here.

SQUUEEEEEKSSSS!!! *runs and hides*

Sure, I can explain. We did the image you reference specifically in this manner for some diversity. It is one of three images, and the other two images are in use elsewhere, in case you haven't seen them: As I am Nezumi, retaining my human ears as part of my spin on anthropomorphism is my choice. The ears have been there since day 1 and are a symbolic part of my history that carried on from my Resident alt account which was Neko. Sadly it seems most neko/nezumi stuff has waned in interest. I'd love to get a set of updated ears and a new bento-ized tail made some day so I can keep wearing all 4 of my ears, tail and both eyes for as long as I'm around. See you at Pride!

LOL, you all thought Molly Linden was fake. *snorts* I am still the LDPW Overlord, among other things.

Added to the list!
