A griefer attack has taken place somewhere on our region, with continuously rezzed objects appearing, and collecting along the various parcel boundaries. The images in these prims include the worst possible, explicit photographs of murdered people (including severed limbs) graphic sex acts (including children), animals being tortured to death, and women being forced to eat things I wont go into..truly horrendous images. We have reported this to LL several times, including graphic screenshots, but they dont seem to care. Live chat is pretty much the same. I am forced to conclude that LL is not that fussed about paedophilia and cruelty to animals etc being portrayed on a moderate sim. How have other people found their responses to griefer attacks?

Hi Tanja, I had a similar problem a few weeks ago, when I was crashing on login every time it got to my inventory. I could only use Imprudence to log on, and couldnt log on in any of the new generation viewers. It turned out that I had corrupted inventory files, where some of my inventory had got saved to root. This is a known bug, and a serious one. SL were not great at responding to my bug report, and needed some heavy duty intervention. Despite them trying to blame it all on my end, it was a grid based issue. Eventually I was able to request and get an inventory repair. However I am a premium account holder and they wont do that for free accounts.

Something not yet discussed here (unless I missed it) LL pulling threads because they are embarrassing for LL. I posted a thread about a bug tracker issue yesterday (my main av currently cannot get inworld on ANY of the V3 style viewers). I discovered this has happened before and LL ignored it for months because it was linked to a confidential LL Jira. So I posted a thread warning people about this devastating bug, and the fact that LL are not rushing to fix it. Guess what? my thread was pulled. I read the community posting guidelines and as far as I can see didnt infringe any. The moderator sent me a jolly private message to say 'dont worry!' we have pulled your post because it is being escalated to people to fix it! oh, but please dont post it again.... If that isnt the secret police in action, I dont know what is.

Still havinig problems logging in, and - of course- still nothing on Grid Status reports....

Hi everyone, I hope this is the right forum for this thread (apologies in advance if it isnt). I wanted to ask people their thoughts on how to make a successful club/hangout. Its not just traffic, its about creating a place people want to come hang out - dance, talk, build a community feel - and keep coming back. Any thoughts on marketing, investment, costs, any other advice? Its open ended, any thoughts or experience would be welcome to hear. TY :)

Storm, yes I made a mistake, i tried to figure out where to post (look at how many times I have actually posted to realise I hardly know my way around this place). Fine to tell me I made a mistake - however... * I didnt like * his tone * which was finger wagging and patronising * no need for that Yes, and I am genuinely grateful for the helpful people who did post here

Many thanks Orca, that is very reassuring

excuse * me * for * not * knowing * (so shoot me)

Not a geek so apologise in advance for any inadvertent technical stupidity.. My husband is building me a mid range gamer PC so I can run SL with less frustration than I currently do on my 3 year old MacBook Pro. He has bought an Asus GeForce GTX560 1Gb GDDR5 Video Card (Direct CU). This is to go with an Asus Crosshair V Formula motherboard, a Corsair GS600 PSU, a Corsair Vengeance 8GB DDR3 RAM, a Western Digital 1Tb Caviar Black HDD, and an AMD Phenom II x6 1100T Processor. There are various other odds and ends like DVD writers etc, and all is in a Corsair Carbide Series 500R Mid Tower Gaming Chassis. Not being a techie I have no idea of how any of this other stuff impacts on the Video card (sorry..) but would like opinions as to whether the video card chosen will run SL (I cant find it on the SL wiki, and live help was not wildly helpful). Bottom line, do I need to change the video card?
