    Maybe Alumna has to clear cache to see the entire boat .. she has been helping us spy for weeks now and may have a full texture cache

     

    Sorry, Edwards, not scoping out boats, though I think there are some in this region! I tend to clear the cache every day when I've finished. I think it may be a new viewer version issue, because there was some weirdness with moving between regions that I haven't experienced before (except at 'the end of the world, i.e. south of Porthole)

    The house is intact to me also, and when clicking on the mailbox, it tells me in local chat "08:30] LH - Traditional - HouseController 5.95: You need to be a Premium Member and own the plot here as your Linden Home to use the menu," and the wiki page is the guide to getting a Linden home. Everything is in working order.

    Strange. As I mentioned somewhere above, I logged out/in a second time and then the house looked OK, but the message when I touch the mailbox (on that parcel and 2 others) in the pop-up box is this (I've never noticed the message you mention in Chat because it's always appeared to me in the pop-up):          *Anyway* nothing's happening in River Run yet!

    i looked all around it even been inside. looks perfectly fine. try to relog Alumna

    Had already done that before I posted the first time! Was that you who just popped up next to me?

    Logged out and in a second time and it looks OK now, but there's a problem crossing from one region to the next, like hitting a force field :) I use the SL viewer, and a new one was installed as I was logging in today - may be the culprit.

    it's something on your end.... I just looked there and the house is rezzed ok for me

     

    Every other house looks OK to me, and I've looked at it from a distance, up close and facing in 3 directions. Also found a box nearby labelled "Touch to Remove and ReRezz Houses for SSP". Have never seen a trad look like that! Here's the slurl: http://maps.secondlife.com/secondlife/River Run/226/184/42

    I noticed a large number of people (15, including 2 moles) in an unnamed region, (SSPE205), so being nosy went to take a look for myself. The region is still far from release, but will have a very nice waterfall - I hadn't encountered one of those in Bellisseria before. (Mystic Mole is barely visible, with the blue and purple wings.) Just up the road is region SSPE221, where the houses' views are likely to be dominated by the cooling towers.

    Like I said earlier in the thread, I am extremely observant and I see what goes on. I saw a 5-day old alt arrive at their new home a few releases ago, and then that same alt was hovering over Axim on Friday.  Then lo and behold, that alt's owner acquired a home on another of their accounts.  Yes, I believe the abandon was done at release time on purpose.  Yes, it could backfire on them, but this time it did not.  Isn't the reason you don't abandon, during or around releases, to be considerate?

    I've been in SL for a few years, on and off, but this flummoxes me. How do you know who is an alt and who is a main? Have I missed the memo on the secret handshake? Are newbies with Premium accounts prohibited from acquiring homes and then deciding to relinquish them? What alchemy assists someone with multiple accounts to obtain a Belli home for one account when their alt is hovering over a region? Inquiring minds want to know! From my own observations, the only 'advantage' one receives by hovering or standing in a region likely to be released is a heads up that it is re-starting... and there are a few of us (when looking to obtain a new home ourselves, or just trying to be helpful to others) who report restarts or Linden sightings asap here in this thread so that people can start refreshing. Your attribution of nefarious motives simply isn't supported by any evidence.

    Personally, I just marvel at how many people seem to have multiple premium accounts!

    How can you tell there's a restart? I've always wondered this

    There's a warning that it's about to happen or you simply get booted out somewhere else or logged out. If any of those happen I'll send through a message. But if I were looking for a home today, I'd just keep manually refreshing now until it's over - you're not likely to get RSI from only 30 minutes :)
