Hi There,

The last communication on your beloved blog is:

From: someone
6:03pm SLT: Logins have been reopened. Please note - login may be slow when everyone tries to login at the same time.


---at the same time---

The last communication on your beloved forum is:

From: someone
05:35PM SLT: Per the Official Linden Blog, we are currently experiencing technical difficulties. Please read more here.



So unless something happened between 6:30pm to 9:30pm, your logon's are not accepting entry. My last resort to find out if there was a problem with SL is from your http://secondlife.com/status/ where it say's, "Second Life Offline for Database Maintenance or Update" followed by some mindless bs.

Now my question is, would it be possible to put a date & time in your Second Life Grid Status as to when it was taken offline? That way, when there's zero communication as it looks like to me 3 hrs later, as I am not on SL 24/7 to find out what's all going on.

It would @ least give me the, "ohh ok, it just went down again for something". Rather then logging into multiple things (Grid Status, SL Forums, SL Blog) to find out a 1 place be all end all information about the grid status.

You could put it right next to the title, "Second Life Offline for Database Maintenance or Update - Month/Date/Year Time (or Time Stamp - like your IM system)".

Is it possible to do something like that?

:cool:

As I write this up, your Grid Status say's SL is open again. Very cool, again, a Time Stamp as to when it was last opened would be cool to see as well.

Thanks & have a good evening

Brock, that's a great idea--not sure off the bat how possible it is to do this, but we're working on getting our different communication sources more in-step so the Grid Status message doesn't lag behind when there's new communication on the Blog, for example.

Hope you had a good evening too. :)
