If I understand correctly all new free members don't get the formerly received 250 linen bonus.

I've got someone telling me the secondlife.com website still says they should get the 250 linden bonus.

Does anyone see this on the website still?

Where abouts on the site is this claim still being made? Can you be more specific?

EDIT:

OK, yes on the membership plans page - First Basic, $L250 bonus on confirmation of credit card

Thanks Gabe, that is the sort of thing I was looking for.

The web site needs to be made correct, I forget whch LInden staffer is the web site guy, is it Chris Linden?

People get disappointed when they don't get the bonus they though they would.

Yeah, and as for "no billing info" being requested, they STILL require a CC#.

I suppose the system is still being changed back and forth. Many people have joined without needing to supply any credit card info.

Yup, for the heck of it I made an alt last night, no conformation of any type was required. Didn't get the L$250 to start, got onto the grid with a whole L$0.

Personally not all that happy with the fact that you can ban a greifer, they can turn right around, make a new account so easily, get a weapon from a friend and start over, and over, and over, and over......

.... or another of their accounts, who has never been in trouble once.

If the name hadn't already been taken, I'd suggest we rename Second Life to Anarchy Online.

It sounds to me like some people here don't clear out their browser cache regularly and are loading up older cached versions of the registration page. I clear the cache after each session and have only found the unrestricted signup page since it's introduction.
