    See, this is exactly what I mean.  They paid for one month to see if they could get a house boat and they did, but I have been paying the premium for almost years and can not get one.  Now how can that be if new premium members are not getting priority????   I am finding many posts saying that are waiting with credit card in hand for house boats to be released and they have no intention of paying for premium unless they see a release.  How is this fair to members that have been paying those fees for year and years?????

    We know it is about new premium.  I guess the only way I will have a chance to get a house boat is to quit being a premium member, stop paying LL after all these years of paying, and then wait a month and try again.  Once again long time premium members are being stiffed by LL so no reason to keep paying.

    Everybody, new or old has the same chance. As many have said, it depends on who was watching for their release, as well as who has the patience or time to grab an abandoned. There are plenty of old timers who got homes, and plenty of newbies. They're not playing favorites. It's not easy, and i'm very sorry you haven't gotten one yet, but i'm sure you will if you keep trying. Have you tried the auto-refresh method people are speaking of? There are a lot of people doing it now, so may not be as easy as it once was, but it's easier than sitting for hours and refreshing yourself(as I did to get mine).

    Yes, it's to bring in new memberships and therefor more $. They are running a business. That is their overall goal. Profit. Guess what? It's working. It's frustrating as crap to wait, but there are ways people are still managing to grab houses.

    I was frustrated until I finally lucked in to one that was abandoned, too, so I sympathize, but you have to be patient and diligent. They are creating these from scratch.

    What they have created is actually very much a high demand item, there just isn't enough product to satisfy that demand YET. This is why many of us premium newbies paid for a month, to see if we'd get a house. If we did, we extended it to whichever we saw fit. If we didn't, we could cancel and wait until another batch or two came up to try that month again.

    Simply put.. if you are only getting premium solely for the house, then yeah, you're going to have a bad time. I, for one, enjoy not having to wait for days to get in to an event.

    Come on. This is not a popularity contest, neither have I anything to say about what LL does. 

    And I would think it's cool to drive through something like SLs version of Route 66 to a Vegas-like area. No gambling of course, but some similar looking: A city in the desert with urban homes. I don't force anything on you or others.

    It is letting the mind wander. It is not that I "must" have it.

    I disagree.  The new house boats for example.  Why is there not a wait list?  Why is there not a focus on premium members that have been paying month after month for years???  Is it just another LL ploy to create revenue by drawing new premium membership and the long time members get stiffed.  we are told to watch a forum post?  for how long, ten more years?  This whole this has been incredibly NOT focused on current members that again, pay month after for month for years...

    Need help deleting Outfit, I'm naked, can not wear clothes

    in Avatar

    I created an Outfit in Edit Appearance and included shape and eyes.  After I wore this outfit, I realized that although I could remove the clothing, I can not delete the Outfit from my 'worn' tab or from my inventory.  I have relaced my shape, skin, and eyes and now use PHoenix viewer.  I still can not delete this outfit: it appears in 'worn' tab and inventory.  Even though I have relaced the shape, it will not let me replace the eyes.  I have detatched everything and replaced everything and it still does not work.  Half the time I try to put clothes on and they only half appears, I just have bits and pieces of clothing hanging from me.  Under Advanced Tab, I clicked Clear Group Cache, I can not find any other cache in Phoenix to clear and I still can not delete this file.   Please help

    Opening Boxes in Phoenix

    I bought a rug and removed it from inventory.  Then i could not figure out how to change texture or resize.  Then it turned into a box.  I put it back in inventory and took it out again.  Now it is a funny shaped box and i can not open it at all. 

    Passwords

    in Linden Dollars (L$)

    Posted

    I have been using and buying linden dollars for 3 weeks now with no problem.  Now when I try to buy Lindens it asks for a password, which it has not done before, and it says the password is wrong.  Something else i norticed,  My name is Bengta Resident, but I had changed it to Cilla,  Now, when i am in my account, sometimes it says bengta, sometimes cilla, so I dont know if this could be related.

    Please advise.
