in-world transactions are fine (for the most part) I think but I've heard a bunch of complaints of people buying L$ having their CC or paypal charged but never receiving their L$ so that's something to be aware of.

Several people have reported failed land transaction this week.

The money was debited from their account, but the land was not transferred.

I'm starting to think 20% success in teleporting is a good thing. Thats scary.

I just tried to rezz a plant with draw distance set to minimum and it is not rezzing and it left my inventory.

Also I cannot withdraw lindens from my SLExchange account and it says the likely reason is Second Life is down.

:(

Its messed, I was booted and then took 15 mins to came back and everyone where I had been (a medium crowded club) was gone. It's a mass crash and inability to log back in.

Thanks LL.

Well the good news is I got my plant back:

"[19:51] Unable to create requested object. The request timed out. Please try again." :rolleyes:

The bad news is all my friends are slowly logging off and I am getting lonely as the server population shrinks. :(

[7:31 PM] We are experiencing various inworld issues at this time, such as region down, logins failure, timeouts on the webpage etc. We are aware of this problem and are working to resolve this as quickly as possible.

No, the new client insulted my system and made the sky split into 2 parts, with a nice blank line between them.


Oh by the way, anyone got the solution to texture skirts not working?
