Oh crud... 7Sesas FIshing has been a longtime fun-fun event on so many regions!

Sorta personally sad for me, because Lovecraft Festival has long enjoyed Fuzzbutt's Gacha Shack... for all our merchants who wished to be part... And now, Fuzz has to think of something else fun as a sideline part of future Fests...

Meaning, there are countries with stiff laws and regulations against gumball machines?

I suppose my question is, will the State of California be penalizing/regulating gumball machines and the like with toys in them? That is essentially what a gacha is. If California is NOT changing how those "RL" machines are managed/regulated... then I don't understand where gachas would be any different.

Chic, that's a great image - I'd know that scene anywhere ;-) I've lost loads of inventory off and on over time as well, and can feel for you there. As you, I fell in love with Innsmouth early on (my 2nd day in SL) and at that time had no idea I'd be the founder/coordinator of a fairly significant annual event (Lovecraft Festival of SL), or even imagine I would be overseeing what I feel to be one of the finest oldtime sims of SL. In any event, thank you to all for your comments, support and constructive criticisms. My only purpose as such is to work to preserve what I feel strongly to be a classic "legend sim" of SL. Thus, I get much more worked up over that, and Lindens' mostly cold approach, to the degree where they implied in wording in my support request that the issue was "user-originated." My repeated inspections of the sim, monitoring and trying to make sense of it all, showed no sign of the nature of the damage and quirky meltdown of functions to result from griefers or overstressing of the sim by any present visitors in some manner. In any case, it's over and done at this point, with the signature style of Linden customer care that I've experienced a couple of times since taking over the sim. I give a huge thanks to Innsmouth's founder and creator, who did come and see the damage, and repaired/replaced the damaged area of the waterfront. Thank you, Darmy!

Starting last Sunday night Innsmouth sim started showing signs of stress... lag, extremely slow rezzing times, etc. On logging in Monday morning I received notifications from Innsmout visitors, and restarted the sim in the hopes of clearing the issues. The problems persisted and, come Tuesday, buildings were vanishing and returning, parcel names and details were showing blank, and it was clear that something bigger was wrong. Again I initiated a sim restart, and received word that rolling restarts were in progress and that LindenLabs was working on issues covering many places across the grid, so I let things carry on. Come Wednesday morning the lag and spontaneous chaos seemed to have subsided, but many of the buildings on the Innsmouth waterfront were partially or completely missing. Thus, Wednesday night, when things remained incomplete, I filed a ticket requesting assistance. Thursday was spent in chat and repeated communication with LindenLabs begging, pleading, and yes, irately pressing for Lindens to repair/restore the sim to its pre-disaster state. Ultimately, LindenLabs has stated that they could not restore anything prior to Monday evening, when the disaster had begun to take on full damage-causing and instability. Now, I am left with a significant portion of this much loved, highly acclaimed sim in ruin, with irreplaceable buildings gone. That LindenLabs cannot restore damaged sims to "pre-disaster" state seems extremely suspicious. Many people have put time, money and effort in many ways to keep Innsmouth covered financially, highly visible and in place for all SL to enjoy for the work of art that it is. It is very disturbing to think that LindenLabs cannot/will not take responsibility and provide some sort of recourse, and not force the restoration efforts to be done by "yours truly," when the damage was done by LL. Is there no reasonable, customer-considered option available on behalf of the people that receive nearly $300 US a month for, for the most part, doing little more than housing a piece of hardware and running occasional routine software maintenance routines? A little background about Innsmouth... Innsmouth sim was created August 20, 2009, H.P. Lovecraft's Birthday, as a tribute to the late, great "Granddaddy of Horror and Weird Fiction." For years it has been a popular sim for numerous reasons - as a work of artistic expression and originality, as a tribute to a famous author, as a place to roleplay, host various events and activities, and for many just somewhere to go and sit and absorb the sights and sounds of a classic "New England fishing village gone to rot." In September, 2014, the creator/owner of Innsmouth announced a very hard, painful decision - the need to give up the sim for personal reasons. As a longtime dweller and overseer of Innsmouth, I took it on myself to hold a campaign to save Innsmouth, with hundreds of Innsmouth fans coming out of nowhere to donate a phenomenal sum of money to purchase and preserve this highly loved SecondLife Legend. Since then Innsmouth has been almost completely funded by donors, renters, pledge keepers, and even an Etsy store.

LIVE at INNSMOUTH OPERA HOUSE!  SL's renowned Wald Schridde sings and performs live music February 14, 6pm SLT! Join us for a live Anti-Valentine's Day show. Wald performs an hour of traditional folk songs that tell of the many ways in which romantic love fails or ends badly. Come and enjoy these musical tales of Cupid's arrows gone awry. http://maps.secondlife.com/secondlife/Innsmouth/112/149/26

Lovecraft Roleplay (and more) Group is proud to present the greatest Lovecraft Shoooowwwww on SecondLife! Announcing the first Multi-Sim Lovecraft Festival! ABOUT THE FESTIVAL! The Lovecraft Festival is a multi-sim event featuring many sims hosting events, a central vendor fair and carnival site, and activities designed to create traffic throughout the event. The Festival is slated to begin 10am SLT September 22, 2012, and wrap up 9pm SLT September 30, 2012. There will be entertainment, vendor fair, and an "Artifact Quest," among the planned activities. Events are all designed to encourage participants to to travel to the various "host sims" and see their unique "show plans," or to take part in the "Artifact Quest," and out items to be brought back to the festival to redeem prize and kick off other Lovecraftian fun! MAIN EVENT SITE: http://maps.secondlife.com/secondlife/Staccato/237/161/22 THE TICKET BOOTH/INFO KIOSK The key to the Festival is the Ticket Booth/Information Kiosk. These will be located on each sim hosting a Festival Activity. The kiost serves firstly as a teleport too, guiding Festival participants to all the sims that are hosting the Lovecraft Festival. The kiosk will also contain freebees, notecards about activities, and other things of interest. It is the central "hub" of the whole festival, and primary means of finding yourself from sim to sim as you enjoy the events and partake in the "Artifact Quest." ARTIFACT QUEST! Each sim hosting a Lovecraft Event will also have, hidden somewhere on their land, a "Qest Artifact." Upon travelling to all the sims and collecting all the artifacts, hunters will be eligible for prizes, plus be in line for the Big Event! To say more would be to spoil the fun!
