Please understand this question is very sincere. It is not grandstanding, meant to be insulting or anything of the like.

I am in SL now. I have built a skybox. Stuff I stretch bounces back and then expands again making it a very trying experience to build. I have linked it all together three times now as it keeps spontaneously unlinking. Now I logged back in and guess what? It is unlinked again. I cannot hardly move around SL unless I am in the sky somewhere.

Here is my question. Do you at this time have a fix to put things back to a usuable state again? Can you roll back this crazyness you installed with that last update and take us back to the version we had as late as last Tuesday that had bugs but one could at least use to build etct? I know you are trying. I know you have asked for patience.

I honestly (this is not threat, etc) am about to set my land for sale and quit paying tier and going to a free account when my quarter is up. Before I do that I am asking when you expect all this to be back to a usable state? SL is not fun anymore. It is just one major pain after another. PLEASE put it back the way you had it Tuesday if possible and step away from the update button.

I am running into Guild Wars for a time to wait for the answer to appear here. BTW I did check the blog, known issue section and known bug page before asking here. Nothing gives an indication that it will be fixed soon. Just that you know it is jacked up. :)

*EDIT* This problem stopped after a couple days. Likely it was as you said with Packet Loss. Thank you so much for answering me Torley. That helped. :) I can build and walk on my land again. so I will put away the change account notion. :)

Macphisto, I am so sorry to hear this. This totally sucks. :(

What I wonder is if you can replicate this problem in different regions--then we know it's not region-specific. I've had *similar* issues (not saying they're the same, but...) with my bad packet loss. Which isn't specific to 1.12.1, but from the sound of it, but do know that the beginning of 1.12.1 had a major packet loss bug.

If this still happens and...

If this is a reproducible bug then the right thing is to fix it ASAP. Please send a bug report inworld, Help menu > Report Bug and email me the # of it too.
