[RESOLVED] Stipends Delayed
Posted by Status Desk on July 28th, 2009 at 01:53 pm PDT

[RESOLVED 1:53pm PDT] The process for stipends has completed and all eligible accounts should have received their payment by this time. Please contact Support if you have any remaining issues with your stipend payment.

[7:30AM PST] The process that runs the weekly stipend payout has been delayed. We are working to find the problem and finish running the payout for all premium accounts. They should finish later today. We will resolve this post when the process is complete or add updates if we run into further problems.
So, shouldn't there have been a "Where's my stipend?" thread? Especially since there hasn't been a general stipend issue in a while.

Are we really becoming that accepting of LL screwing up?

I got my stipend so didn't notice the problem. Maybe we are so justed to getting it late that as long as we get it sometimes Tuesdays we don't panic.

My stipend is only 50 lindens a week. Not worth checking to see if I got it or not.

I would've quit SL long ago, but then realized if I ever came back as Premium again I'd be at the newer lower stipend rate. :p

I was wondering what day of the week I was supposed to get it on... kept wondering why I seemed to have less lindens than I expected.

When you've burned out all your loot jazzing up your new digs, you notice 300L... :cool:

basic accounts created before ~june 06 have a contracted stipend of 50L$ per week IF they logged on during the previous week

(may require logging in before viewing)
