Hello. I wonder if any of you can help me? For reasons i wont bore you with I need to compile a list of "dead Lindens" i.e. ex Linden employees who are no longer active. Ideally I need their job title and start and finish dates. Heres what i've got so far:
Cory Linden - CTO : 2000 - 2007
Robin linden - VP / Marketting & Community developer. : 2000 - 2009
a very short list I know, but those are the only two I ever got to know. I want about 20 in total so all help is appreciated!
Please post any info you have here.
thx.
Mr Pork.

Don't know the years, but Robin Linden was another big name that left.

Judging based on who still has a profile findable in search..
Ben Xenon Ginsu Alberto Altruima Eric A lot of these were "inworld content developers" like Ben for example, built "Busy Ben's" and a large amount of the vehicle "sandbox" sims.. and Xenon built bridges, among other things. Alberto built some items for the original Orientation Island (he also build the voting pillars, and Eric built the roads in my sim. I've pulled most of these names out of a pre-2005 era "Free items" vendor.. since most people from that era do appear to be gone, or have moved on. Here's a page on the wiki.. check the bottom section for "Former Lindens" http://wiki.secondlife.com/wiki/Linden_Roles _____________________

if they ain't in the ground they ain't dead! The Linden is effectively dead even if the person behind the Av is not. We are not going to be seeing Cory Linden wandering around anytime soon. Even if the real Cory is still active in SL I would assume he would have to use a non-Linden Av. So I think the term "dead" is apt. Don't know any, but I reckin there should be a Linden cemetary for them, lest we forgt the Lindens that died for our prims during server fires etc ! Bang on the money. I need to build a cemetery and thought I would make it the Linden Graveyard, give the departed an honourable send off. Of course, I will leave some freshly dug graves for phil and M and build a special pink and green coffin for Torley in anticipation of his demise.Kathleen Craig (Katt Linden), Linden Lab's Communications Manager - January 2009 Linden Lab's Chief Financial Officer John Zdanowski (known as Zee Linden in-world) - March 2009 Prospero Linden - server team - May 2009 Great stuff, thanks allot. _____________________

Even if the real Cory is still active in SL I would assume he would have to use a non-Linden Av. So I think the term "dead" is apt. Well, then again, it wouldn't be impossible for a Linden to leave & come back later, giving forth a risen from the dead scenerio. Undead Lindens? Elvis, Jesus or MJ Linden perhaps? _____________________

Not exactly a Linden, and very sketchy I know, but I think Marianne McCann said that Naughty Mole was no longer active? It was somewhere in the thread about LL's "Adult Dungeon on PG Land" before I stopped reading it.
Sorry. Not helping much, am I... _____________________

Well, not quite confirming your statement of dead being dead, Porky.
For example, Jean Linden, German Marketing Manager, left LL in January or February or so. She is still in SL and if you were in a group with her, you would know here new name (which is almost her real name, but I will not tell it, cause that would be name callling). So the "dead" Lindens are still there and get a new name, so they could be found in the groups they set up etc. _____________________

There's a "former lindens" section at the bottom of http://wiki.secondlife.com/wiki/Linden_Roles but it's not really up-to-date.

Hamlet Linden -- 4/2003 to February 2006
I can add Prospero Linden/s start month: August, 2007, and of course demise May, 2009. P.S. When Torley dies, I think he's supposed to be creamated, and his ashes, mixed with vodka are to be used to spike the winning watermelon of his local state fair. . |

Don't know the years, but Robin Linden was another big name that left. If Robin was marketing director it is not surprising he? is gone. The whole Zindra mess has been mishandled badly in that regard, arguably as bad as it has been mishandled procedure-wise. |

I saw one today in a sim. His name was greyed out, and hunched over like "away", but no green dot. Name was something Linden. I'll go look for him. Needs a proper burial.
