What is wrong with the home tp feature?

Myself and at least two friends have had a problem for several weeks now - we can set a home tp point on our land, but if we try to use the shortcut 'tp home' under the world menu, we are taken elsewhere. The location appears to be random. I have been transported to a sim I had been to previously (but not necessarily before the one I am currently in), one of the 'shunt' sims it sometimes sends you to when a region is down, and to the main hub in the sim I am trying to transport from. This last is particularly galling when I am trying to flee from a 60second region restart warning

We all have land in different sims, we live in different countries, we have different computer systems, and we experience this problem all of the time and quite independently of one another in time and location - so it is definitely an SL problem not a client problem.

We can use stored landmarks to get home, but it seems a shame to have a tp home feature, and still have to dig around for a lm to that all important place - where you live!

Additionally, we have all submitted bug reports on this since before at least two upgrades ago, with no result, and I personally have submitted more than one, but this problem is not featured anywhere in the list of bug fixes being worked on.

Thanx a lot for bringing this up, Fledhyris--I also noticed you posted here:

Now I can say I've *heard* of this but not able to reproduce it myself. Nor have I heard of any Lindens--yet--experiencing this.

I'll be watching that thread to see if anyone finds a rock-solid reproduction that'll confirm it's a bug. For the time being, please narrow down all the possibilities based on the helpful suggestions given.

[UPDATE] I found your bug report on this! Thanks a lot for sending it in.
