Of course.. when you create a game that so many people play.. you have to give up your entire life.. Holidays, weekends, any kind of break. Give it up. You're a slave to your own passion Linden!

Monday...*eyes computer clock*
"We will update on Monday with the in world purchasing status as soon as we are able." *taps foot on the floor loudly* Both inworld AND outworld, if you wouldn't mind. Worst part is they most probably knew one couldn't purchase Lindens through the website. THAT bothers me most >.< *thinks they COULD hurry up a little after having let a weekend gone by already* |

I lost the opportunity to buy 5 additional lots of land. I tried at least 20 times to make the purchases (totaling well over L$250,000) since Friday. This would have brought up my land use fees well above the tier for Concierge service.
To my dismay, these lots have all been sold. I opened a ticket for help and received no reply from the Linden Lab support folks. Needless to say, I am very disappointed. After being a premium member for more than 3 years now, I am considering of finding another place to waste my time and money. |

I just tried to purchase some Lindens again through the buy L$ page of the website (I did NOT try ingame);
https://secondlife.com/currency/buy.php AND IT WORKED! Purchased Lindens for 25USD and it went through. No error anymore as my countless of tries before. It went through! It showed on my transactions history, just now checked ingame and it's all there. *worships LindeX for working this time* I hope it continues to work! But I'd say if you were going to try anytime soon. Now would be a good time. |

I hope this is not the case, I was able to purchases L$ when I first created my account and I have been unable to buy more since with many numerous attempts... I even tried the other "payment methods" with no luck.... if I am getting charged for failed attempts this would suck!. I am still unable to buy L$ |

I finally took the plunge and attempted to buy money via the website...and it worked first time. Maybe it's just overloaded now, but good luck to all.
And please Linden Labs...ANY danger of letting us know that this is a priority for today? Go on...humour us.... |

I'm with you. This is just plain not fun. And fun was what I was looking for. I haven't heard a word on the ticket I opened, and if I haven't soon, I'm gone. If they can't handle the tech issues in a timely manner, they had better get a grip on the customer service. They are going to need at least one of the two. Why not play another better online game?? like World of Warcraft or There. I dont know of any others like SL but if people do know about a better online game like SL please tell me. SL has been like this for, at least, a year. I dont get on much because of the lag and errors I keep getting. I play WoW now and only that. I know I am a nerd. lol ![]() _____________________

Want to make money or not?

I'm not so naive to think that I'm the first to ask this, but I'm new, so I'll ask it anyway. After all the adjustment of trying to think and act in "SLT", which coincides with "PST", which isn't too hard, because I live in "MST", why the heck is this forum delineated in "GMT"? Of all the crazy nonsense...is it because that allows the Lindens to say, "Well, we said Monday you would be able to purchase $Lindens, but that was Friday SLT, and we meant Monday GMT, which of course is actually yesterday now, so if you want to purchase $Lindens on Monday SLT, then you will need to cross the international date line PDQ so that it will be tomorrow today."?

yeah, still nothing on their incompetence. i wouldn't be surprised if, hypothetically speaking, i walked in there and saw one of them standing there with his/her thumb up their ass. i'd probably beat 'em senseless

For those who haven't seen the blog yet...
---------------------------------- http://blog.secondlife.com/2007/06/19/update-in-world-lindex-purchases/ ----------------------- *Claire's Update*: I finally got Lindex to work for me on the website. I had to re-enter the credit card data (same card and everything) *and* I got a call from my credit card company to authorize the charge about 5 minutes after I finally concluded the purchase. Methinks the credit card companies are taking a renewed interest in SL's activities. |

It just doesn't work and there must be reason they act as if their nose bleeds. It's very odd
Common it ain't normal that they must be loosing so much money and they can't fix it in a few days. Never saw something like this in my entire life. It's time someone at linden labs takes responsibility for the demise of second life. This can't continue! People will get evicted from their homes and the only thing LL can say is that it works. Just criminal! |

Still doesn't work
06-19-2007 17:05
I just tried about 5 times to buy lindens from the web site and it still doesn't work. Guess they don't want me to spend any money in world. Must be another SL feature.
