Not all still currently work, or at least not all ALWAYS work/are open for buying lindens, but it's a good list, I can recommend one, personally, I can't tell you about any I have not dealt with personally, though.. http://wiki.secondlife.com/wiki/Linden_Lab_Official:Linden_Dollar_(L$)_Authorized_Reseller_Program The one I have used, successfully... Coinek-got the lindens nearly immediately, fastest one I have seen yet Surprisingly Anshex has issues now and then with prepaid cards, in the same manner LL does, so..despite it being popular, it's not a first choice for a lot of folks with prepaid cards..good trustworthy company though, so always worth a shot. how well do these work for outside of the states ? and how long is the wait ? and what happens if the lin never arrives ?

Nope, there is no list. Like I said, there is absolutely no rhyme or reason to why some work, and others don't, even when they come from the same company. It can truly be annoying, there's just not really anything that can be done. It has been this way for years. Even people who once never had an issue with a certain card, or type of card, have run into the problem. It makes about as much sense as most things the lab does, to be honest. does any one know of any that currently work ?

if none any legit 3rd party sites to buy lin from ?? and can a 3rd party site be used to get past the 1st time buyers lin cap of $30.00 ? id liek to get 10,000 lin but if i could buy lin normally id be capped at 7000-7500 so topic got moved and 90% of replies removed ... was probably more info in original topic than this ...

Why can't you acquire and use your own payment info? im un willing get a credit card because i dont want monthly fees for osmething I will use once I tried to get paypal once it some how got hacked during sign up i didnt tell anyone i was getting paypal but a few days after creation and entering my bank info waiting for the verification money they send to arrive my password stopped working then a week after that so did my email I called paypal and tried to figure out what the hell then i tried making a new account and adding my bank card to that but since you can only have one bank account per account and it was locked in old one i couldnt set up a new account i then called paypal for assistance and they couldnt find the old account to remove the card from it i even asked them if they could add the bank account for me and still wouldnt work they then told me is nothing they can do and that they are very sorry and i haven't bothered with paypal since

welp due to lindens lack of purchase option im unable to get lins since family cancelled paypal due to being charged $300.00 for osmething they didnt purchase and still not getting the money back after 2 weeks they are unwilling to enter credit card info why cant they be like other games and accept prepaid options ....

Persephone Emerald wrote: dd Temin has good ideas there about using a simple script to make your balls bouncy. I didn't know that trick. I've only used the Edit tab myself. You can also move objects without dragging them, by changing their Position in the Edit tab. Putting a higher number into the Z position window, moves the object up. Putting in a lower number, moves it down. The X & Y positions move it North-South or East-West. If you accidentally lose objects while trying to change their position, they often end up at the edge of the sim, on the ground, or just above 4000 m. Here's another fun trick: Make a ball big enough for you to stand completely inside it. Make it hollow to 95%. Stand inside it. Make the inside surface (or Face) Transparent. Then make it physical. This makes a big hamster ball you can walk around SL inside, kind of the in "The Prisoner" (1960's British sci-fi show). that is fun but it doesnt move very fast is a way to reduce the weight of the object so its easier to move ?

http://i.imgur.com/Ecz8ypH.png proportions are way out of wack and i havent even touched them i dont know what caused it and draging a pre made avvy out of the library onto me isnt fixing it

Persephone Emerald wrote: Yes. You can set your object to "Physical" in the Edit window. For a ball, you should set the physics type to "Rubber". Kicking or dropping balls around SL can be fun, but be careful not to use them to annoy or grief people. If you don't have land of your own, a sandbox is a good place for playing with physical objects. You can also set objects to Temporary, so if they roll away from you & get lost, they will disappear after a time. The virtual gravity & collisions in SL don't work exactly as they would in RL. You might have a sky platform hanging happily in the sky with no support, but if you turn it physical, it will likely crash into a neighbors house or business, not breaking any objects, but making their experience of SL very broken. You might also have a picture hanging nicely on your wall, but if it's turned physical, it will fall off & land in a very unlikely position from where it would fall in RL. is there a way to make teh ball light its really slow to drag about and only way to seem to be able to lift it is in edit mode i wnat be able to play keep it up or catch with people

dd Temin wrote: Ok... Create an object/ (rez a prim) Set Prim type to Sphere. In the object edit menu choose the contents tab and left click on New Script. When new script window opens...copy and paste the following 2 lines into the Touch Event section. llSetBuoyancy(0.75); llSetStatus(STATUS_PHYSICS, TRUE); Save the script and close script window and edit window. Left click on ball . Play ball Note : in the prim edit window....you can choose the "features" tab and set prim Material to rubber to get a nice bouncy effect as mentioned before. like this ?? http://i.imgur.com/ntxHLRb.png

I guess that's why all the other people who've been posting in reply to your many, many questions have been. You've made it very clear that you're either too stupid or too lazy to follow the suggestions that you've been given. You've been telling us all about your "family" and their financial circumstances. From the previous stuff you've posted, I have no idea if you're talking about your RL family, or a group you've joined in SL. That's what I don't care about. I love SL, and have done for many years. Because of the fun it's given me, I wanted to try and help a new member of the SL community. I've now decided not to bother with that (on the forums anyway) because it is intensely irritating to be engaged with your refusal to take heed of anyone's advice. I hope you eventually work out how to do whatever it is you intend to do in SL. right now i just want know how to make a 1 time purchase of lin with out permanently adding a credit card to my account (because it wont happen) just wnat get to the spot where have lin to be purchased and then it wants credit info and that is when i let family member fill in rest of info not sharing any of it with me and i go to bank to refund them

Rosie Eun wrote: I don't care. then why are you posting

Rosie Eun wrote: If you have no payment information on your account, then you can't buy any $L. Did you look at your account balance to see if there is a sudden extra 10'000$L there. Please PLEASE stop these inane questions and READ or WATCH some tutorials. i wanted to see how to go through adding lin so i could direct family member on how to so i could pay them back the money the next day or if early enough in the day with in an hour of their credit being charged

so in order buy lin a credit card has to be permanently instaleld onto my account ? ... i dont have my own only family member with paypal closed it due to getting charged $100.00 3 times in a row for something they have never used and i doubt a single family member would be willing to permanently put their credit card on my account the rare times they do use their credit card for me on stuff is when they know they can block my access to it so as not risk me spending their money (which i wouldnt do in 1st place but i understand it as a necessary precaution because what if my account gets compromised or something ...) and before you suggest i get my own I don't want monthly fees for something i would use once and before you say paypal i tried, it got hacked during sign up and i cant add it to a new account because it already is on an account but since its not registered not even the paypal company can add it to a new account for me (they tried multiple times and told me sorry but is nothing we can do)

Rosie Eun wrote: Oh for heavens sake. How about you do what about a dozen people have already suggested, and you spend some time looking at all the tutorials that are available , rather than giving the Forum this seemingly endless stream of consciousness about all the things you don't understand? Do you have payment info on file? If YES, then you've probably bought 10',000 $L, which presumably is what you intended when you typed 10'000 and clicked BUY. If NO, then all you've done is half-fill-in the buying form and then rushed here to tell everyone. i thought clicking buy would take me to a buying form so i could see how much CAD id be paying but all it did is refresh i dont wnat be charged 10,000 + what ever i decide on when i do decide to get lins

and page refeshed have i just been charged 10,000 lin with out it even asking me to confirm / enter any payment options ??? how do I abort o.o
