About 30 minutes ago there were probably 50+ people at the welcome area in the test grid, and me with a horrible framerate of 1-2 frames per second.

Then half the welcome area buildings disappeared and it helped the framerate tremendously. Then all the welcome area disappeared and it sped up nicelly.

but while trying to move around I discovered I was trapped in Ahern and could not cross into Morris or Dore (System Message: Teleport failed due to timeout), and Bonifacio was simply gone from my view, an empty region of space.

I was able to leave for another part of the grid, and came back about 20 minutes later to find...... NOTHING!

The land has all dropped below the waterline, for the entire welcome area. It's all gone.

Someone posted about this in the SL answers forum, pretty scary actually, considering that grid was to test todays release.. perhaps this is why the main grid is still down.







Oh and btw, any idea why when I try to log on to Siva I get "invalid password, make sure your caps key is off" yada yada

Whatever is happening is affecting other test grid builds. There's a giant "urban cityscape" in Gibson and Bonifacio.... and it seems 1/3rd of the entire structure has disappeared, leaving just a big hole in the ground where it stood.

Earlier, I posted a $10,000L reward for returning the buildings in the preview area.

To claim the prize you can't use a "god mode hack” that would not apply to the main grid and you must be able to repeat it and bug report it to LL

I will buy more $L so I have enough on hand for this and more rewards.

Also, note that LL itself has a $2,500L reward for finding exploits.

My goal is to boost the reward for finding specific expoits.

I noticed the welcome area gone too. I think a linden wiped it to improve load time.
