    Halloween season officially starts tomorrow and we have already dusted off the Haunted Category for you!

    There are a couple of events and one destination that are opening this weekend that I wanted to highlight:

    • Rock Your Rack 2022 - The 10th Annual Rock Your Rack Event runs from October 1-16 and raises funds for the National Breast Cancer Foundation. Find it under Featured Events starting October 1st!
    • Out Shop Cancer 2022 - Out Shop Cancer is a shopping event and grid-wide hunt running from October 1- 31 benefitting the American Cancer Society. Find it under Featured Events starting October 1st!
    • Nightmare in New Orleans - A new haunted and realistic destination of virtual New Orleans, in a post-apocalyptic and dystopic environment. It is incredibly well done and opens to the public on October 2nd. Find it in Editors Picks starting then!

    Numerous haunted destinations are already up and running so if you want to get started on your scares tonight, check out the Haunted category. Keep an eye on this category as we continue to add more to it throughout the month of October! Here are just a few from the list:

    Hi Everybody! 

    I would like to introduce a new member of the Linden Support team, Boxy 5000. 

    Boxy 5000 is a virtual assistant/support bot trainee. 

    But wait, wasn’t there already a chatbot who answered questions for premium users? Indeed there was! Boxy 3000 was the earlier model of the trainee chatbot. 

    We are learning from some design flaws and moving forward with a more advanced bot. Boxy 3000 has been re-invented and given an extra 2000! 

    But wait a second time! Won’t this bring about the machine apocalypse? Not just yet–Boxy 5000 is more advanced and learns as they go but Skynet is still a few upgrades away. 

    The upgraded bot will be a 24/7 support option for both premium and non-premium residents! (Previously only available for premium customers.)

    Boxy will have the ability to answer commonly asked questions, keep you up to date on current issues, help with ticket submission and in some cases handle a support request. 

    Boxy has uses for all residents, from early adopters to fresh new faces. 

    For new and more casual residents Boxy is available to help them find the support they need. 

    For our seasoned veterans Boxy can offer support options for some specific requests. Specifically, Boxy will be able to submit an abuse report on your behalf and in some cases help with the restart of a region!

    Boxy will continue to learn as we go. Boxy might not have all the answers currently, but we will continue to review questions posed and help the bot to better answer your support queries. 


    We realize that a chat bot is not a substitute for a customer support representative, and this bot is not meant to be. It is however meant to help when we are unavailable or may be experiencing higher call volumes. 

    For premium residents Boxy will only be the first point of contact before being passed to a support representative during office hours. Utilize Boxy to help better explain your issue once you are transferred to a support representative. Outside of office hours Boxy can help or create a ticket for when we are back in the office.

    The ability to get an answer to your question or to get your issue resolved without having to wait until our Support Lindens are available is Boxy’s primary directive.

    Anyone interested in saying hello to Boxy can access it by logging into our support portal. The Boxy 5000 chat widget should appear in the bottom right hand corner of your screen.

    Boxy 5000, it’s advanced…
