Speaking of jokes, I wonder if anybody from LL with any authority or sway in their company has ever read their forums. When I try to imagine a LL business meeting I always picture a bunch of dip-**bleep**s wearing suits, fumbling awkwardly on tech speak they can't understand, brainstorming solutions for problems they're still working to create and musing leisurely on those quirky nerd suckers who pay their bills. :I

Thanks for the answers. I had a feeling it was some deep-seated mechanical issue in Second Life that excluded the developement of a reconnect button, but I had to be sure. I feel a little less angry now, which is good because all I really wanted was a decent explanation of why this is apparently such an impossible feat of programming on LL's part. Guess I'll just have to learn to take deep breaths when my internet goes on the fritz. Cheers!

I don't want to sound like a spaz, but WHY the hell isn't there a reconnect button? I'm sure SOMEBODY at LL once thought about it, so what gives? Why isn't there a reconnect button? Seriously, it's been a common feature on MMO clients since time immemorial.. i'm just stunned and a little peeved whenever circumstances combine to really make me need one. I know it's easy to knock on LL for their complete disregard for anything intuitive or helpful, but come on..
