  1. Very interesting Celestiall, I went to the link you posted above to read what you suggested Rod read;  and I got this message : " UNAUTHORIZED- it appears you are not allowed to view what you requested, You might contact your administrator if you think this is a mistake"  Now why would I not be allowed to view that?  I was all signed in and everything!!   Is that what I was supposed to see?

  2. Mike You have a most imortant point there!! I personally have no use for any of those facebook type things and I sure as heck did not come into SL to get hooked up with any of them especially against my will!  We all should have the right to chose IF we want to have an other connection with anything outside of SL.  For those who want it great enjoy but don't make the rest of us get involved in something we do not want to!!  That LL viewer just keeps getting worse and worse in terms of all kinds of crap a lot of us don't need or want;  taking up room on our screens for a pain in the but interface  and forcing us to learn that very unfriendly mess!!

  3. I am smiling as I remember those early days of learning and they were indeed fun!  Welcome, and I do hope you keep your word about addressing the many issues that have already been placed before you.  Please do one thing for me and thousands of others here:  Use a third party viewer i.e. Phoenix;  and compare it to the difficult and not so user friendly LL Viewer and see if you don't understand why we are all upset with that thing!  Thanks:)

    I was not going to say anything more in this thread but I just have to!  It just keeps piling up and piling up!!  I own 1 sim and it takes all I can manage to pay the tier for that one, yesterday it kept going down for no apparent reason certainly wasn't sim overload cause I was the only one there all day.  Called Chat support;  first thing they asked was the name of the sim second thing they asked was did the owner know about the problem I am the owner!  Long pause then he said we will restart your sim in 5 mins and if it keeps happening file a ticket.  The last time I filed a ticket it took 6 weeks for any kind of a response!  I pointed that out and all he could do was to repeat to file a ticket.  Last time I called Chat support they insisted on blaming a third party viewer for what was obviously a glitch problem that lasted one day but managed to create 2 days worth of work for me to fix  .And I won't even mention the problems with Market Place here that is on a whole other thread somewhere else!

    Mesh!  well I decided to give it a try; joined the beta testing.  Gave that up in frustration too,  cause my 3D programs do not support the one and only format that is allowed.  What I had to do was to transfer my creations into Blender and change the format there then upload to SL.  It worked one out of 10 times and would not bring any of the original textures with it,  came as a grey object only.  I don't have the time to learn blender and I certainly do not have the cash to buy one of those programs that does support the format for.  So yes this mesh thing is going to become very exlusive as only a handful of creators are going to benefit from it!  Second Life is becoming more and more a have and have not community!  NO wonder folks are leaving!!  I definitely have one foot out the door!

    I already had a say with regards to service and a few other things but I failed to mention what several others have said.  And that is Second Life is no longer what it was; and sadly may never be again!  I really miss those first few years on SL (been here over 5 years). And I really am not looking forward to much in the future.  I have actually upgraded my computer so that I can move around at least in SL now but this is the last one !  As for Kids;  I shuddered the moment that news came out and I prayaed that someone would talk some sense into LL!  I really do NOT want kids here!  They and we were far better off when they had their own grid!  I sincerely hope you have read all these posts because these folks are saying what we have been trying to communicate to LL for ages!  Yes we older residents are leaving and I am about to become one of them!  I am sad and disappointed and grieving the loss of a good thing!  There are alternative worlds out there in the infant stages but with a lot more promise than SL has right now, unless someone namely you! can reverse the damage already done and prevent any more from happening!  Please pay attention this many people all saying the same thing cannot all be wrong!

    I extend a cautious welcome. I have been here 5 years and so many times I have heard LL say they have some wonderful changes in store for us.  And those changes usually are something no one really wants!  Namely the most obvious being that new viewer they are trying to ram down our throats;  they have not even tried to listen to we the users on that one!

    As for customer service?  umm what is that but a series of web pages that lead a person into an endless loop of page after page of information, making the person give up before they ever find the help they needed.  And the Live Chat well I am really tired of having my issues turned back on me making it my fault or insinuating I am imagining things.   Filing a ticket is a joke;  6 to 8 weeks for any kind of response and this is regarding sim performance problems that they know about it's in the jira!  No acknowledgement at alll for that long a time.  Now I expect that is because I am only a 1 sim owner.  Those who are big spenders with business that have them holding up to 100 sims;  now they get immediate service!  Hope you can see the injustice and unfair treatment there! Oh and when they do acknowledge it they give you a list of things you are probably doing wrong and things you need to try when in fact all those things were investigated prior to filing the ticket and if any one had read the ticket in the first place they would have seen that!

    I am one who is seriously considering leaving SL for one thing it has become too big and the small business person doesn't have a prayer! I joined SL as a place to create and share my creations with others and make a little money on the side to supplement a rather low RL fixed income. And to meet new people and form friendships only to find that a lot of folks in SL are actually here to lie and decieve and use others.  So all I have left is my creativity and that is now burried in a mire of mud.  I am seriously doubtful that SL will have anything to inspire me to stay.  But I will hang around long enough to see what you can do.
