The ultimate in security. You can't see anything. You can't do anything. Its almost perfect, except when it fails.

Thought it was just me. This saves me from having to troubleshoot my internet connection. This site has been boggy and buggy as all hell lately. (big frown face) :(

Get 503's frequently the last couple of weeks.

As expected, not a single word from whoever
runs this board. =)

Since we lost Strife as our mod, we've taken a real plunge. Linden "assigned" a LInden staff member as our moderator, but I have yet to see any comments from that person in this forum.

[I don't remember new mod's name - you could find it pretty quickly with search, I link).

There have been a couple of posts about the problem on the LL Blog:

http://blog.secondlife.com/2008/01/28/more-intermittent-website-problems/
http://blog.secondlife.com/2008/01/25/intermittent-website-connections/

LL obviously knows about this and is trying to fix the problem.

That would be Aki Linden who has made a total of 22 posts, the last being on 1-15-2008 when she locked a thread that was AR'd.

The Lindens have learned not to say 'RESOLVED' unless they want tons of dictionaries sent to them with the word highlighted.

It is usually worse when the load increases, so it then starts affecting the login screen (I've had the 503 from when the thing tries to load the blog headings) and bogs every thing down. It's driving me 503 and if the webpage worked correctly, I think I'd have a heart attack.

I couldn't care less about how much a moderator posts. Their actions are what's important. There have been several instances where some action has been needed and it didn't happen. I wonder if Aki actually is still charged with Moderating.

Maybe the 503s continuing like this is "nature's way" of pruning out the crap here.

Cynical? Maybe.

I'm starting to question my involvement in SL... if the forum and web site performance over the last few weeks is an example of the way LL runs their service I don't think I want any part of it.

It is not rocket science to most to keep a web site and forums up without 503s.

So far my experience with LL has been nothing but excuses and continued errors, blogs about mistakes followed by more excuses.

Could it be that LL is really a experiment in behavioral engineering? Skinnerian Intermittent reinforcement.

They keep us on extinction, while tinkering with our gullivers? Give and take away reinforcement.

"Results of basic research have demonstrated that behavior (paying them) maintained on an intermittent schedule of reinforcement will be extinguished more slowly than behavior maintained on a continuous schedule (non-intermittent basis)."

Wow, girl, don't bite my head off!!! :D

Anyway, since we haven't seen hide nor hair of her I had no other way of determining when she's been around.

If was going to take a bite it would be a different part of your anatomy :rolleyes:

I made a post on the blog today where they said that a new viewer was available.



Here was Joshua Linden's response to me.

She's a ninja mod. She sent me a warning email for a post I made which was a little critical of Linden Lab. But I think it was locked more because it was seen as trolling rather than criticizing. But I admit, I do sometimes tend to walk a fine line between the two. :) If I had blatantly criticized LL then I probably would've been fine. It's the way that I choose to do it that probably annoys them.

It seemed odd because I got the email weeks after making the post. I reckon Strife warned her about my evil ways and so now she does a monthly check on me. :eek:

But still, I'm much happier with our current moderator. I'd much rather be banned outright than be annoyed to death by a moderator that locks threads on the turn of a dice.

Huh???? If she comes back and starts doing that she's going to be one very, very busy woman.

Well like I said, it's probably not so much that I was criticizing but more to do with the sarcastic style in which I chose to do it.

That and the fact that me and Strife never really got along very well. ;)
