  1. Nothing. The problem is with Linden Labs, they are doing unshceduled maintenance right now and a lot of people cannot connect. Please be patient and keep an eye on the grid status reports and relax until things return to normal.

  2. Greetings;

    As was said earlier we're all volunteer residents that help out other residents here in Second Life. Most fols do have credit cards and bank accounts even in Europe, linking a Pay-Pal account also is no issue either. Your residents either don't want to do that or have chosen other unsupported means. It is nearly impossible for LL to support every currrency. There are a lot of options with Credit crads, Pay-Pal and Skrill out there for them.

     

    I am sure LL is taking a look at other options as well but we are not privy to that information as of yet.

  3. It is mostly due to current rules and regulations and Second Life is not the only place that has to comply with them. Most delays are in the payment processing side such as Pay Pal or Visa/Mastercard are there to minimize fraud and chargebacks. I have not heard anything about the process speeding up myself, but it doesn't mean that something isn't in the works to do so.

  4. Second Life gets rather cranky on a laptop, so depending upon your wireless either move closer to the router, reset it or use wired connection. You can also check your connection speed and ping rates here which would help to uncover any connection issues that you might have. http://www.speedtest.net/  they also offer a ping test as well.

    Good luck and I hope you are able to solve the issue. You also didn't mention the hardware you were using such as graphics CPU and memory, those can have an impact upon things as well.

     

  5. If it were me I would find another place to role play. Their request is rude to say the least. Requesting personal information without that persons consent is against the TOS. Reuqesting it just because you want to let someone role play while allowed is pretty rude and highly unusual. As a role play person myself I have never encountered anyone asking me for my real life personal details to do any role play and if they did, I would say "Been nice knowing you all"

    The other issue arises is what exactly do they do with this information? Be cautious and take the safe route.

  6. If you verified your age with Linden labs then it is just a viewer setting. To do so go into your viewer and select Preferences, then select General and make sure the "I want to access content rated" drop down is set to "General, Moderate, Adult" and you may also need to make the same selection in your account dashboard, which is web based to see all content in the Marketplace as well.

    This is the most common reason for not seeing all the content you are eligible to see. I hope this helps and good luck in your in world travels and enjoy what is here.

  7. If you can share the type of computer, graphics card and your connection type and speed, it would help us a bunch to help resolve your question and to get you up and running smoothly.

    And I second the bag of chocolates for the volunteers :)

    Best wishes

  8. You failed to mention if this is 32 or 64 bit and if you updated to Windows 8.1. But it appears to me that you have something comflicting with the viewer keeping it from opening. I would suggest doing a full scan of your computer to rule out any malware or other issues, run check disk and see if there are any odd file errors or the like. Also you might wish to ensure all your driver software is current such as graphics, because Second Life doesn't play well with most cards, so having the right driver is pretty essential.

     

    ATI/AMD are the worst offenders of driver bugs. I hope these ideas help you and get you back in business once more.

  9. There are serious known issues with ATI and AMD grahpics drivers and you should downgrade to the most stable version, I have found that the 12.xx drivers seem to work the best for ATI/AMD cards. Nvidia cards do not seem to suffer any serious problems with displaying mesh and in fact I have encountered no issues on Nvidia.

    Also be aware no matter what card and chipset you use, Second Life usually doen't play nice with any of them, though as I posted above some cards are less problematic than others. I hope that helps you out and makes your inworld expereinces more pleasant.
