I came to SL in 2008 as a student in a Master's Program. I stayed on and helped the school establish their in-world information base. I established a building where it would be possible to view PowerPoint slide presentations from real world and virtual world conferences.
As the collection grew so did the prim count. In 2014 I was ask to move all the slides to a lower prim prim presentation viewer. The new viewer I purchased used a different format. That required down loading every slide textures, make the modification and up load them for the new viewer.
The sim had several group tags, one created just manage information resources so we could "share with group" to work as a team. It worked perfectly until the the person in charged retired and set off a power struggle I did not see coming. The person who came out on top started deleting everything she did not like or could not own.
I thought I better come pick up the slide viewer I purchased and the slides they contain until the dust cleared. That is when I found that she had ejected everyone from information resources group and I no longer had access. At the time I set up the new board I boxed up the original textures in three boxes. Now I can only find two boxes with 360 textures. The textures show my name, the date up-loaded and the uuid number and Market Place shows the date I purchased the viewer. I kept the rights to the textures and no copy in the viewer but that is no help when it is group owned by a group I am no longer in.
I put a massive amount of time and expenses into this. Around 8,500 in Lindens for the board and up-loads. I was told I would be reimbursed but that never happened. That was alright, I was happy to share my work. Now if she decides to delete them they are gone. That was my work and my money and I want them back.
Is there anyway to get them back?
