Weirdness - help?

For the past couple of months now, myself and a friend have been having some really weird issues with SL. We refused to update to the latest client version because it totally broke voice and created a choppy/non-connecting mess that we couldn't handle (plus some of the new features were annoying). But, take a look at these issues and tell me if we're going to have to update to fix it? Is anyone else experiencing this?

First, tps are insane. We crash mid-tp alllll the time now. 'Failure to tp, you've been logged out of SL - continue or quit' ...that's the frequent msg. Also, if you stay in one sim too long, an hour or more, without tping anywhere during that time, you are almost guaranteed to crash the next time you try to tp somewhere - anywhere. But you can tp as much as you want, as often as you want, so long as there's no lull in activity between them. Basically, I could tp fifty times in an hour if I wanted, but if I want to sit in a sim for an hour and THEN tp away, forget it, I'm crashing.

The other really annoying one that's actually becoming quite a concern is that if you edit/adjust/mod objects on your avatar and crash *any* time afterwards...when you relog the objects are reverted back to their original state. Now, if you take them off after modding and put them in your inventory, then put it back on and crash, it's fine. Or if you mod the objects, log out, relog, it's fine.

And, as a part to the one above...these objects that are failing to stay modded are also, in increasing numbers, losing their perms too! When you crash and come back, more frequently now, the objects that are reverted back to their original state are now suddenly no-mod. The only hope you have is to either go buy it again (which gets costly) or hope that it was copy and you made a copy in your inventory because those seem to retain the proper perms (at least until you put them on and crash again).

Any thoughts? help? anything?

Thanks

Well i updated and get that crash mid teleport you have been signed out error all the time too. Though the modding and things resetting is terrible, i havent got it yet. so i really am not sure what to say except updating wont fix the teleporting bug. might make it happen less though.
