From: Brann Georgia Posting that disgusting picture of the bugs isn't just thoughtless and pointless, like many of your posts, it is also rather malicious toward those of us who may be squeamish around those creatures. Nice work. As well as those of us with real-world phobias to those things. Those things give me the screamin' jibblies.

Can I ask the more considerate members of this forum to NOT repeat that image in their replies, please? I've already turned off signatures because of some of the non-worksafe images in some of them, now I also have to turn off inline images so I don't barf into my morning coffee? Thanks a lot. QFT! OMG!

Jesus Christ, Rebecca, can't you just accept that some of us actually ENJOY being here, despite the wonkiness of the whole system? What do YOU get out of pissing in everyone's coffee with your constant rants and ravings? Please, just leave us in peace to enjoy SL... the times it is working.

You mean some of you actually log in? One would never guess that, considering that not a single person in this thread, attacking Chaos, seems to be aware that SL was down on and off, for many for days, when Chaos started this oh so helpful thread. I'm coming to the conclusion that many forum people are so self-absorbed they really don't care about SL's future at all. The mob mentality of some people on the forum is pretty funny. I'm at the point where I sold my land and am only logging in to pay rent. Waiting to see what the new CEO does. In the meantime, other Virtual Worlds are being created and selling sims for less then a hundred dollars and even for free. I know, you like LL's great customer service along with it's great instability...and the kool aid is so tasty. EDIT: OH and sry about the cockroaches for those who are squeemish.

YOU don't care at all about SL's future - except if it goes down, so you can point your sarcastic little finger and go Haaa-haaa on us poor stupid users who didn't listen to your words of wisdom when there was still time. *snorts*

From: Solomon Devoix /me looks around this forum.
Um... no? It's because they're invisible. *snort* God I crack myself up. Not having read the rest of this thread yet I'll assume someone else has made this joke, whereupon I'll come back and edit this to *Oryx shakes her fist at [someone else]* Seriously, these Chaos threads always make me laugh.

I always thought I was tough on Sl and the Lindens, and sometimes even felt bad about hammeringthem. But I read Rebecca's posts and I feel much better. Is that being self absorbed ?

From: Rebecca Proudhon People are quitting SL enmasse How do you know? Did LL hire you to conduct official exit polls? Because pretty much everyone I know is still around...they're bitching about the problems and maybe logging in a little less, but they haven't left.

OK- not that I want problems mind you - but honestly - what problems exactly? Last week around 2 am my time SL was down. I realize that's bad for the folks that are not in my time zone- but I imagine sometime it will be the other way around. However- other than the skirts that have a mind of their own- I have not had any problems (/me crosses fingers). When I started in '06, I couldn't stay on more than five minutes. Went out got more RAM - all good- sort of - I still crashed and had serious BSOD issues for awhile- but honestly other than the skirt thing and the IM thing with the current mass release (I use the RC one now with no probs at all) I haven't had any problems. And I run SL on a sub $600 Dell laptop so it isn't some screaming hot machine.
I agree with the others here saying basically, we love SL and put up with the difficulties as they come - we get on the other side and its back to smooth sailing. As for other virtual worlds - take a look around- not one can compare with SL.

Is that being self absorbed ? I know. I do bother too much..... you see that people here, hammer individuals that post here all the time. Personal attacks are fine apparently...... but start blaming LL .....fighting words to the kool aid drinkers. How dare someone get upset at LL for theft, transaction problems, poor service, instability, devaluing property, meaningless age-verification, total negligence, thousands of dollars stolen from people...etc. At any rate. If I didn't care about SL I wouldn't bother at all and I will care only as long as it takes, to see if the new CEO is going kick their butts or not.

From: Rebecca Proudhon If you haven't figured it out by now Trout you are never going to get it. Unfortunately, the opposite appears to be true. [edit] I'm deleting the rest of this. It was mean and made me feel bad about myself. Rebecca: Good luck to you in whatever you do. I can't get you to understand that your crusade against LL is just silly, disingenuous and ill-conceived. So best wishes in future endeavors. I hope you find a way to be happy.
