Log-In Problems

HUmmmm today was the first time I tried to log on in about 3 or 4 days....sooo...LOL..help..Will I really need to wait till Tuesday update to log on?

Hi Guys out there, yea, you at LindenLabs !!!

Yes so erm, still waiting ... heheh damnit =)
Bah, as all things on earth, this too shall pass...

Please Guys, cmon, do us 1.6.5 quick so we can be back to our favorite place =)

Yadni encourages the Lindens warmly =) "Cmon ure gonna make it" and hands a hot cup of coffee...

Why dont the lindens or the fansites create a chatroom on the internet so the players who cant login can be there and talk to their friends?
I think it would be less anger and stuff ok it would still be anger but as I said less anger and more happiness














Motorcycles is my dream in real life and my "reality" in Secondlife.

That's a great idea. We cold even add some kinda 3D figures to it so we could sorta see each other. Or even better, some sort of virtual world where we could walk around and chat and do things, like, hmmm, building stuff !
Wow, wouldn't that be cool ?

Not really caught up about whats goin on but did they say what time the update would be ready

Alan,

while AC has certain Admin rights on those sims since she bought them, she does not pay land useage fees for the land on that continent that she has sold to others. Those others have to pay the land useage fees.

Just to clarify.

You are funny .. Right now they are fixing the server... at least they say they do .. so the server is down today until midnight I guess .. See you in the game...

Yes. /3/e5/46653/1.html#post495899/3/e5/46653/1.html#post495899

I think Philip at least touched on SOME of the issues. My only question was, why was it a reply to a missive rather than a top-of-the-list original post where everyone would see it.

If that post had been left Saturday in the main news area, likely a lot of folks would have cut LL some slack. Like one user aptly said, "I'm a software engineer and I know what it's like to have bugs... but I'm also a customer who's paying for this service and Linden Labs should be keeping their customers better informed."

I'll admit that Philip's message explained a lot of things. Wish we'd have seen it earlier, and in a more visible spot.

Good point Winter, and I've been hollering about this for quite some time now. When I was in college I took a course on "Methods of Propaganda"... designed to protect business people from becoming victims to such.

It's amazing what such a course make one aware of. When claims don't match data and timetables, MAJOR CLUE. I've mentioned several times in these forums... if it's CONTENT... how is it that the system went from fine to crappy in one day? Usually something like that tells over a period of time.

Now I WILL ADMIT... the glass can keep filling until it overflows. One straw can break a camel's back. But that doesn't really explain to me why we'll be sailing along smoothly, no problems, and the next instant lag to perdition. Doesn't explain why I'll be porting all over the place and then wham! Everyone I talk to ports to limbo and has to log off. These things do not appear to be content related at all. They appear to be OS/Server related. And I'm not hearing a word from LL about that.

Stats I read on a Second Life Demographic page:

Total Second Life Registered Users: 35,000

Total number of users that have been online in the last 10-45 day period: 1,500

Suggestion Andie: Stop wasting your time on Second Life and open a business elsewhere, because your client base is dying.

Stuff like this is causing people to log in to Second Life, log out and never return. They are apparently losing users by the thousands. I know my vendors are selling a whole lot less than they did 3 months ago-- and I have more items available. I have merchant friends who have closed shop because there are fewer people shopping and those that do shop don't have as much funds as they used to. I'm no marketing and economic guru, but I do know this: 1,500 active users are not going to be enough to keep the economy going. Most sales right now are coming from newbies who don't know what's going on, and after a week or two they realize what's going on and they leave. Business here is looking pretty bleak.

Michael, there is something very valid about your post:

Whether these things are the case or not (and honesty, I think you're right on the money)... this is the IMPRESSION is giving to their users. And that's just plain bad customer relations.

They need to learn a lesson from Nixon. Likely he'd have still remained president if he'd have just said, "Yeah, I messed up. Bad judgement on my part. Let me fix it."

We're paying for this service. Many users feel like they're being lied to/deceived / or that LL doens't know what it's doing. True or not, these perceptions are what is killing them. They need an HONEST PR guy to stand up and say, "Hey, we screwed up. Here's what we did wrong. Here's what we're doing to fix it. Hang in there until we get our act together".

Raven, you don' thave to own a sim to own land. 3.8 sims doesn't even come CLOSE to what some of these Landowners hold. And yes, $35,000 a month.

Thanks for pointing that out Alan. I'm amazed that there are folks who jump on a simply-stated figure and start making rash claims based on limited knowledge.

I didn't mention the $35,000/month person by name because it was a private conversation and I don't feel right about specifically mentioning names. But as you pointed out, there are folks who spend > $10,000 a month... absolutely. Now, if there are folks that do that... what about the BIG GUNS... then ones that pull down serious profit from SL every week?

If one is going to pull down serious profit, ya have to make a serious investment. I have no way to verify the $35,000 a month figure. That's just what I was told, face to face, by a very prominent and saavy businessperson the LAST time these kind of crashes happened and took SL out for a week.

heh doesnt it just piss you off look like your about to connect very thing looks like its going ok then BAM no connection made from database or some other bs

I have been playing SL since last year and I have desided not to put anymore money than the $9,95 starting fee until I know that the game is bug free ... So now you know kill my AV lindens or fix the problems and make money from me I have seen the same problems since I started and nothing seems to have been changed.. and you earn money from lots of other players so you should have the money to get new programmers who know how to fix the problems.. one more thing I see that it is only 4 of my friends online and there use to be more than 10 or even 15 online..








Motorcycles is my dream in real life it is a "reality" in secondlife... (when the server is working properly...)

Well it looks like the update did little to nothing so resolve the login issues

now it say that the time and date is wrong ? haha lots of excuses ... how can the time and date be wrong when it is taken from time.windows.com ?

Like I told someone else, SL is talking about your 'maternal clock' which is ticking at a lower clock speed, b/c of lag.

Motorcycles, huh ?
You wouldn't happen to have some huge, eh, leather and denim clad friends we could send over to LL to give them a little, ahem, "motivation" ?

I am a legal motorcycle guy ... not illegal hmm strange it is downloading a new patch and I have the 1.6.5 patch allready is this the 1.6.6 or what? hahaha lol... this kind of fun I havnt had since years back

Wait till you get the 'It will appear you are frozen...please wait' message...next message will follow 'Now make like a lemming and jump.'

Holy crap...I wasnt frozen...well I was, but now Im in.

'If you build it they will come...' ~ the voice of Shoeless Joe Jackson in Field of Dreams whispering...

cool a new message when I want to login "Logging in. secondlife may appear frozen. Please wait."
