I'm new to Second Life, been on less than a week. I've been trying to learn how to build things in the Sandboxes and keep getting stuck there for no apparent reason. I cannot move, I cannot teleport and if I quit the game and try to relog I get told I can't login for 5-15 minutes.

Any ideas on whats causing the problem and/or what I can do once I get stuck?

Bump? I'm afraid I can't help the guy myself... but seems like someone here should be able to give him a hands-up...

Leave your minimap up.

If you get "stuck" and can't move -- this is generally a sign that you've actually lost connection.

The minimap should go red when this happens.

Ignore the 5-15 minute warning. Generally a 30-45 second wait is sufficient.

Avoid sandboxes , find the private ones or some other places then the public ones.... no im serious.

LL doesnt follow up on sandboxes anymore, and theyre grief to HELL and they dont care, theres physics, spam, sound, pushing, advertising, and crap all over them, its pathethic they allow this.

I used to build in them, but now ?, forget it, it take less then a hour to get griefed or some moron decide to "oops test" shitload of physics and kill the sim.

here ill do it again

NICE GOING LL (not that you ever read this) but it TRULY shows you dont give a rats about newcommers and truly show how SL have become littered with crap & spam all over the place especially in public places, why? oh i dont know cause you dont even bother enforcing your own rules in sandboxes and its "lolz" to grief in them.

Try bothering checking up on your sandboxes, yes they are CLEANED more often , but have you even been to them the last year, i doubt it i find less crap googling porn then being in your sandboxes.
