Thanks for paying attention Philip  I for one am glad to see the fury of yesterday die down some. I was so overwhelmed by the negative nastiness I stopped reading the forums. I agree with some of the comments I saw from Siggy yesterday, there are more important things in life. To put it in perspective. I really looked forward to my 3 day weekend. So if I'm not able to play SL as much as I had planned, then I can find other things to do. But I still have a choice in how I spend it. On the other hand, the Lindens also had plans for their long weekend. But where are they now and what are their choices? They are at the office working hard to get us back in SL. I've always had the outlook, things happen, mistakes are made. This is part of life, what really matters is how you address them. I think the Lindens are doing all they can and also making sacrifices of their own and then some to get us back on track. Thanks guys and I hope you have time to spend with your families and friends this weekend too. Pahoa

From: Philip Linden Sorry Everyone! Working as fast as we can.
Good point about the preview grid. I'll check on that. It seems like having an alternate but non-permanent grid available whenever we can is a cool idea.  I sit here on a day off thinking. Wow it must suck to be working so hard on a day must of us get off. Phillip to you and everyone working there tails off there at LL I for one thank you for ALL for your efforts. Thank you for having the vision to create, maintain and put up with are community.

Hugggz and many thanks to you and your staff, Philip. It is absolute hell having everything go wrong, furious customers, anxious customers, and a holiday, all at once. I hope that you all manage to fix things and get out to play very soon. I am immensely grateful to you for your efforts on our behalf. I wish you all the best of luck!

*raises glass of champagne in toast to the lindens who have been giving up their time to try and save New Years in S/L*
from a dif post, I want to repeat:
If we think its driving us batty - wonder what its doing to the people at Lindens, especially those that thought they would be doing something else tonight. Have to say thank you for all their trying anyway. *S*

HHmm, just a reply in general. In the last year, I have tried 4 different cell phone companies, gotten very little for the amount of money I was paying monthly, not to begin going into the hassle of canceling services I never received and on cell phones that never worked from the beginning..
Then go to Wally World and buy a vaporizer that doesn't work, only to know I'm going to have to stand in the exchange line for at least an hour or better waiting for all the Christmas returns to be taken care of that are ahead of me...
Um, add to that, mistakes in billing on credit card that have to be worked out very carefully and slowly.
I'm sorry, but I really think that the amount of money going to the Lindens for their wonderful world is really not that much to worry about when they do have a problem with their equipment, at least they are doing what they can as fast as they can to solve it, along with telling us what's going on as much as they can.
I've been to other worlds, both 3D and 2D that don't bother to do even half as much as the Lindens for almost twice the amount of money.
Maybe there is a Bug in the system, maybe there is hardware problems, but when dealing with computers, especially when so many different kinds have to interact. I think the Lindens are doing an awesome job.

As far as hosting events is concerned, from what I've seen when I was able to log in the attendance is pretty spotty. This afternoon Lestats was empty, there were 3 people at the Edge, nobody at 666, nobody at XXX, 5 people at Booty Call, and at most one person I have calling card for on at once. So I don't think you need worry too much about missing an event ... many that were scheduled are unattended and the host absent ... you are in good company and nobody reasonable is going to hold it against you. Logging in has actually been more difficult for me today than it was last night, wierd since there are a lot less people inside than there were last night. With regard to refunds and such, I have sympathy for people who are actually in this for the money, but 3 days outage (if it ends up being that) is less than a dollar of fee for the rest of us. Hell, our Xbox broke in the middle of Xmas and it did not occur to anyone that we should march on Redmond over it. I do find it fascinating that so many of us are willing to spend hours trying to get in  Don't wear yourselves out, Lindens... you know what fatigue does when it comes time to do something carefully. I'd personally rather see you take the night off, get some sleep, and get it right next time you reconfigure. Happy new years to everyone!
