Thanks, apparently it took that and was told basically that the dog ate somebody's homework. That was $150.00 to wait three days. I'm thinking a new server needs to be assigned, its a laborious process of moving assets...etc. Nope, one email asking if I have to call my bank to stop process and seconds later a region shows up. For anyone thinking of doing this. Don't

I literarily put a ticket in three days ago to have my region moved, which costs $150.00 to do apparently, and have had exactly one automated response to date. Does anyone know how long it actually takes to move a sim, what's involved, why they don't respond and whether or not they've had to stop payment on their banks end because of non delivery? Or how to go about canceling the authorization if they just don't do it, I guess? Not having any confidence in this service right now and never experienced this type of thing with a business before where you authorize money to be withdrawn and they don't acknowledge or give indication when the service or withdrawal of funds will take place. Thanks in advance

It was a bumper feature on the slots actually, so it begs the question _What's the difference between Gacha and No Devil or skill gaming then in general? If you pay 25 L into a game you have a chance at winning x amount if its a tournament/ prize board or in the case of Gacha a rare. yes? The difference being with a No Devil game you are under the illusion that your skill will allow you to beat the set score to win advertised or possible amount, Provided the owner of game sets script to pay out on semi regular basis. It seems to me that if that is allowed, and it most definitely is then there is a step missing to Cacha, namely a skill game aspect. Right now its not regulated and there are many possible outcomes, but that could be scripted to reflect prize one, two etc. I think it's just a matter of chocolate needing to meet peanut butter.

There was a little bit more involved than just putting them on specific regions. Games had to be rescripted to become "skill games" and or slots had to become Bumpers. Very talented game scripters lost everything. I don't see the difference between a No Devil game and a Gacha right now, with that train of thinking. if I don't understand the new "regulations" that would cause a sunsetting of the Gacha and I'm assuming it has to do with how the item is purchased, which is "chance". Perhaps it's a matter of Chocolate meeting Peanut butter and someone needs to add a skill aspect to Gatcha_or_ all gaming is on its way out. What is the difference between winning 500 Ls on a 10L No Devil or an expensive rare no copy item if its advertised as such?

So Kudos to the person that comes out with the Normal Vendor and sells the actual product pictured on vendor face and calls it Gotcha, I guess. I don't understand yet how this violated gaming, I haven't read that mess since like 2011, 12 maybe but I DID enjoy Gachas and thought it was a pretty cool marketing tool in SL, but like pretty much everything else over the years, Did and use to, seem to be the most used descriptives when it comes to marketplace.

And we have that with Projectors, (crude and limiting) but still already in place. I believe, I'm not a programmer or a science wiz by any stretch, but I think we're just talking a line of code here. I still haven't heard anyone say why if Linden water can reflect our images that the ability can't be turned on for other object surfaces. Linden water is simply mesh is it not? It stands to reason that the ability and physics are already in place. The only way you can see the water reflect is to turn on advance lighting and run SL graphics relatively high, I believe that alone would deter most people's overuse of mirror effect if they were to keep that requisite in place. I have a machine that can run SL in constant high graphics, but I don't, mid graphics with Advanced lighting turned on is sufficient. If anyone knows or has a link to the Linden water mystery I would appreciate it.

I understand that, I also know that "mirrors" were used in a little game called Aerosmith World back in like 2008, which was absolutely nothing compared to SL. It's complicated, but I don't think its very far from impossible.

Please don't bite my head off on this, but does it not stand to reason that if Sl water can reflect your avatars image, then technically isn't the ability to mirror, already here? Sorry if this has already been covered. I would also like to see the ability to use mirror on a prim surface

No, actually you wern't wrong, entirely. I think what I did was that I still had the box highlighted and I was not in my inventory when I hit wear So you are kinda right, I should've slowed down. amazing how I could be here this long and never have had this happen to me.

I have many MANY teleport crotch pictures! ~ Framed a couple as matter of fact Still, I don't remember ever losing all my attchments and clothing. As far as my avi being jacked up, having both your legs over your head is an easy fix in appearance after one of those tp's, but commin out the other side of this nonsense has rendered this custom shape with smaller hands and feet. It's as if I am wearing two shapes, or half of one and half the other.

I jumped out of that viewer, and into V4 Firestorm and was same there as well. I've put myself back together, sans about two or three tatts, and I'm almost back to where I was, and I just noticed my shape is a bit jacked up as well, not sure what I did to piss off LL, but that was a nice little slap, having to spend the past 20 minutes fixing my avi as opposed to uploading and updating.

Nope

In the middle of creating system eyes, packaged the final product, opened box, hit copy and wear just to check everything was ok ~ aaaaaaand Everything I was wearing went poof~ From hud to Hair. Don't get me wrong, I spent a lot of money on my skin and shape, I look fantastic nekid! (well my avi does), But I ah, kinda want to be the one who decides when and where I do this, not LL ;) *Please Note my birthdate before you ask me if I'm in Restrainedlove without knowing it, I'm not. ;) Was in latest viewer, by myself when this happened. the only noob thing I'm guilty of is not making a folder of my latest avi and various attachments. Anybody else have this happen to them? Thanks in advance, and ty LL for the next paiful 10-15 it's going to take me sifting through my inventory trying to find "ME" again ;)

The Difference? My homestead cost me roughly about $31.00 US a wk for 3750 prim and a continance of Unscheduled maintenance and server rollouts that pretty much rendered SL and my overpriced rented sim, completely useless for about two days out of the week~ as far as building or uploading goes. My 1/4 sim InWorldz cost's me rougly about $7.00US a wk for 11,0025 prim and uploading textures are free. There are many differences between IW and SL. Hands down SL has some very cool features, sadly buying/renting space doesn't happen to be one of them.:smileywink: SL has pushed the online web based marketplace to the point that most, if not all of it's more serious content creators HAD to create a marketplace store, and in theory that SLX pressance would've or should've served to drive inworld traffic to that creator's store/sim. ~It did, for the most part, but because of the money grab (*cough cough ) LL price increase, coupled with the success of SL's intergration with www, you can literarly be anywhere and still have the success of "traffic". I keep a small Inworld store at Alady island and have affiliate Vendors in SL. I still consider myself a Content Creator,~ just not in SL. Aire Xaris in SL now, is just a really good looking "magic Box" SecondLife to me anyway, has successfully turned itself into a really cool mall. Their new Viewers are less about the content creator/ builder and more about the "Shopper". IW has come a long way since I first landed there in 08, Main problems I can see is it's Search Feature, and SOME SL creator's price gouging new residence. If you are a builder or creator, and you have an inkiling of marketing skills, you've learned that the SEARCH feature is way more intergral to selling your products and driving an inworld eccconomy than maintaining an overpriced sim or having a place to park your Mesh Yacht that a lot of residence can't see anyway while I will continue to keep a foot in both worlds, IW to me offers more as a Content Provider than SL does. My textures and builds are mine, and they are on my puter, so I'm not too concerned about exporting/importing. (Sl can keep my horse/motercycle/cat/mesh house/boots/ hair, etc~ (I would have to go to sanbox or join an overpriced group owned sim to rez and use/edit them anyway I feel that IW has given me ore of the tools I need (PRIM) and the affordability to be creative again..kinda what Philip had in mind when he started this whole thing in the first place was'nt it?

I absolutely Love the Forum Whore's ~ hope you don't mind me calling you that, but there was a time when I was one...In a galaxy far far away, ~and I'm telling you, with any online mmo that is the place to go to find answers. You're both absolutely right and I stated in another thread that it was actually the billing department that supplied me with the CUSTOMER<--- and I can't stress that word enough, Support, that I both needed and deserved. I too have owned land and business's in here and have run into problems, mostly centered around rolling restarts and it is not so much the problem itself but the way that it is handled. I'm not an unreasonable person, I do realize that there will be times when things go wrong, but you absolutely DO NOT treat people like they are criminals with no rights or send them messages that essentially say we are working on it and any subsequent messages or comments you send us will be discarded. At one point the Tech department sent me an e-mail in Japanese to be fecicious ( as if to say, here let me say the same thing to you again in another language) Can you imagine another business treating it's customers that way? The only thing this experience has encouraged me to do is be an advocate for going basic again. Once again, kudos to the residents of second Life and NOT the Tech staff I honestly feel that this all had something to do with the billing and login maintenance that was done yesterday, and they put me through this hell because they didn't want to admit that they screwed something up. I was rewarded as a paying CUSTOMER with a 24 hr administrative hold on my account ~

I want to personally thank the billing department and the very nice lady named Katherine that I spoke to for their help in this matter. I still do not know WHY they decided to put a hold on my account, other than it was a "Security Issue". I will not be continuing as a "Premium" account because I absolutely feel that it was more an issue of This: [Resolved] Unscheduled Maintenance for Login and Billing Systems Posted by Status Desk on November 5th, 2012 at 06:31 pm PST [Resolved 5:58PM PST, 05 November 2012] The unscheduled maintenance to Second Life has been completed.

Shameless, I know...But I do it anyway

Anybody else having problems buying lindens right now? I've called my bank, re-filled out my billing information, verrified everything, still getting declined and error notices???? I'm about to lose my sim because I can't pay tier without buying more Lindens. Do I have to download the new viewer, is this why this is happening?
