@Bradley and Ray: Thanks, I'll check out both! Are they temp rezzing crabs or will they stay? (Apart from wandering off, obviously...) And Ray: You CAN have your own Raymond F. Sideways or Senior Sideways now as an alt... :D

@Trout: Um.....I actually can't stand seafood. Okay, the odd octopus, but fish and crabs...nah... (yes I know, I'm a weird kitty) And I think I would rather want to keep using the hot tub, not make the place smell...fishy! ;) But crash your biplane there any time!:D
There is an option to rez or to drop him in a box that temp rezzes. Either way he's always there...staring at me sideways with his beedy little eyes.

I got me a crabby little companion now, too...scuttling all over the place!

This one isn't temp either, and is happily running sideways all over the place now...I *hope* he's still there when I log on again!

It isn't true that crabs HAVE to live in or near water.. these special crabs can live anywhere...and I mean...ANYWHERE.... dark, warm places...wide open frigid places..it's all good.. they will survive!



What about wide open warm places?

How nice that you can get crabs so conveniently. It will save me from sleeping around in seedy places.

Awhile back, I had two crabs on my beach...animated cute lil things. Four days ago, I went home to discover that they are GONE! Yes, you read it right... there is a crab thief out there...*pouts* In all seriousness, I did a very exhaustive search of my inventory for them.. even looking in folders they would have no business being in. Nope, they are gone.

Has this happened to anyone else? If so, did you ever get the item back? Is it possible that someone came by, snatched them up and had them for dinner? ( shudders at the very thought ) LOL...

I am laughing about this because getting pissed takes too much energy these days... Thanks in advance for any responces.



They may have walked off. The script may not be set correctly and they left.

I really think LL should put the identity verification and inventory loss problems on the back burner until the issues of Crustacean Nation are met!

I'm so sorry Lexii - I do hope they come back ok. I had a fish that was only supposed to be able to swim a metre from where you rezzed it. One day he was returned to my "lost and found" with a message that he had "gone off world"! How he managed that and what horrid things happened off world I can't imagine! Unfortunately he was never the same after this experience - lost most of his ability to swim and now can only move his fins a little - must have been the shock. :(

Have you checked the 0,0,0 co-ordinates of your sim? I know of someone who found a whole heap of her lost inventory piled up in the corner of the sim - sometimes things sort-off home there.

....come to think of it, I lost an atoll beach hut at about the same time - you don't think your crabs could have taken it with them? ;)

Do supressed memories and recurring nightmares count?

Wait, supressed memories? You mean that dream that I keep having . . .involving you and me . . . eating crabs . . . really happened? The horror!

not sure if this was mentioned but they may already be returned to you. LL sometimes returns physical objects that move around if they bump into things because that can cause lag. I got scolded for a cat that I had that kept bumping into the wall and it was returned to me with a warning to not leave it unattended again.

Missing crabs? What missing crabs?

I have a crab on my beach, from time to time. It's a "Mister Crablegs", that I bought on the Bora Bora Island sim. So far he's never run away.

I sell a nice crab ring and float set, if you want to catch some more. :) Seriously!

No. That was a dream. In reality, you had the chicken and I went with the salmon. The crab looked good, but the waiter hinted that it might not be fresh, so we changed our minds.

/me scatters a line of crab food from the shore at the forum hangout to a pot of water sunk in the ground, with a bonfire under it. Fortunately, SL fires don't need oxygen.

Nice to know you're still lurking Johan :)


Egon, considering yesterday was International Talk like a Pirate Day (took me ages to realised it wasn't a joke!) .. perhaps you should start looking for your parrots on peoples shoulders!
