I just logged in and tried teleporting. Every time I do so I arrive and start floating up into the air. I tp home and either float or keep moving. I have a telephone line problem and line speed down to 960kbps from nearly 7 megabytes. But I've had the telephone fault from Saturday and only this morning have I found the this problem.

Thanks for any help or advice, Flaran

PS - Logged back in and clicked on a shoe I was wearing to change colour. Immediately floated to ceiling of my skybox, swimming style.

Happens fairly often. Don't know why.

The best solution I've found is to click on fly and then stop flying. Usually puts my feet back on the ground properly, but doesn't always work.

Sorry for bothering everyone with this post. I'm not awake properly and missed the item of jewellery I was wearing. New freebie called anti-grav. Take it off and fine!

embarrassed Flaran.

Don't worry about it, happens to the best of us.

click fly then land - that fixes that.

as a note - if your knees are bent, sit on something, anything, then stand....

I get this problem more often if I'm wearing my scripted PrimOptic sunglasses with Flight Assist. Taking them off doesn't ALWAYS fix it, but obviously the flight assist is contributing to the problem.

The first step to freeing yourself from your helium addiction is admitting you have one. I suggest you seek out a good support group like HA.

it was just an anti-grav freebie....yea, right.
