I am not happy, I downloaded the new upgrade no problem, seemed to log on great, the only problem was i got on, had a totally grey screen, couldnt move, couldnt type, i did recieve a message from a friend saying ... isnt it great to be back on. I wanted to reply and say nooooooooooo ... but couldnt, than, SL logged me out for inactivity i guess it was. Since than, I cant get on. Now im so upset im emotionally binge eating .... Jeesh please Lindens get me on before i have no food left in my house lolol

Ya know, my honey tried for three hours to get in the game last night. She finally gave up and went to bed. We were both more than a little pissed. Now this may just be it. I don't want to leave the game, but it's not worth it to be throwing money away.

Rumor has it another patch was deployed that will say "SL may appear to be frozen, please wait" and then it lets you in.

Try the upgrade again folks, never know, it may work finally :rolleyes:

I didnt think the upgrade would do anything about the log in problems. The only part that said it might was the 'email' workaround. I did actually get to the line about 'server access taking two minutes'. Then it heaved me back to the log in page again and told me ' umm no, try again'. Soooo, no surprises here. Theres a major malfunction, some ghost in the machine mucking up the works. Just gotta wait till they catch the miserable little bastard and wipe it out. Your waiting for a Linden to come on and say " yep your right, this totally blows and we understand your pain."? They have already. And once they get a definative fix they will shout it out real quick before all their userbase jumps ship and goes back to tso! Yep, this sure sucks big time. Cross your fingers.

It isnt a rumor, yes another update, and it does say it appears to be frozen and after about 10 minutes you get in. Than you get frozen in place, only see thing grey, after about 15 minute you start seeing objects ... but they like transparent, you still cant move ... you cant see what you try to type in the line you type in. and well before i crashed finally after 25 minutes, it took 3 minutes for me to see what i wrote in the typing line and was 6 minutes and still hadnt shown up on the viewing area. and yes i timed it lol.

Im not happy and i am going off for the night, i refuse to waste my time with this garbage ... Lindens, please dont charge me for the time i cannot get on, or for the time that you get me on and i cant type cant move and cant see.

I will try in the middle of the night and loose sleep so i mightttttttttttttt be able to get in and be able to do something

Good job Lindens.. where did you learn your customer service skills, at a flea market?

Not even so much as an update on the forums to let us know whats going on. They keep the system down the entire day to work on it, only to have the same exact issues after they're done... with not even so much as an updated message on the forum to let us know whats going on... They sure know how to make us feel like valued customers, eh?

LOL I swear, I think WE are the crazy ones to waste our money on this shit that doesn't even work half the time. Sucks to be an addict *sigh*

But maybe Lindens need to remember, all addicts can recover after they've had enough...

Hey well I cant log in either has been since last Friday and i have been emailing Technical support now for bout 3 weeks, everytime I delete something in my inventory I crash that was when I could log in. Talk about bs, I tried yesterday to get in over and over I refust to sit and try night tonight, maybe if we were lucky we could receive a mass email saying Connect to SL now dont wait , pass go and collect your 200 bucks. As far as tech support goes why bother they dont respond anyway :( Autumn Rosebud

As aggravated as I've been over the problems, and as tempted as I've been to just quit and find another game, I'm going to stick around a while longer.

Instead of feeling angry today, I'm imagining how I would feel if I were a Linden desperately trying to fix things and seeing it all go wrong. Frankly, I can't believe they aren't just as upset as their player-base.

I'm quite sure they are just as frustrated trying to find a fix. But the problem with Lindens, is communication. They have not posted one single update today to let us know whats going on. You send them an email, they don't even respond.. other than the system generated generic response. And this is an everyday habit of theirs, even when things are running smooth in SL. Hell, even if ppl are getting harasses in world... they just simply don't respond to problems. They have VERY poor customer service. Have you ever messaged a Linden in game to ask a question, and had them tell you "Ask live help" My friends and I have MANY times. They don't help for shit... what are they even there for, get a normal name like everybody else if they don't want to be bothered.

We pay way too much money to play this game to get ignored... its BS... and soon, they're going to realize it when they start losing players over this nonsense. Simple solution would be to communicate and compensate their players for all their troubles. But do they ever do that? Rarely.

Im tired of this.

I sware Linden Lab must be pulling a pyramid scheme. we cant get into our accoutns to cancel our land parcels, and we cant do jack to get Linden lab to fix it. This is getting me pissed off.

If posts dont work . then im going on a hugner strike until SL is fixed!(I think)

They said it should be fixed now in this version. but obviously not!

You think itll be fixed by version 986.198.78?

Btw, you guys should try playing Graal Online, I play it, and ive been playing it more and more since sl has these problems.

Postive part in all this negativity is that if we get enough downtime you can press lindens legaly accourding to your consumer law for not delivering the service (i'm thinking tier cost and mothly charge).

I hope Linden Labs is watching thier customers dribble down to zero because this is exactly what is goint to happen because of things like this. i know they say they are fixing it but 7days???????? i havent even gotten in yet WITH the two updates. they fixed more complex problems faster than this. Well i hope youre happy LL. goodbye. :mad:

Rofl A Fix Huh?!
05-16-2005 16:49
"Just wanted to make sure that everyone knows that if the Second Life client is "Not responding" according to the operating system, you should NOT force quit the client. There is a problem with the HTTP library that we're using during login that causes it to hang our client completely occasionally - closing the client at this point will just cause you to go to the back of the login queue.

The changes that we've made in 1.6.5(7) should make you much more likely to make it through the login process, even if it may take a longer amount of time.

We will hopefully get this problem fixed in a future release."

A fix in the future?! Well what about now? Have no fear i am sending my 5year old in to fix the problem i bet she gets it done in less them 6 months
