I would like to know what the issue is with Live Help. There is an automated message that says it may take a little bit to get a response, instead I haven't gotten a response the last 5 times I've used this option. Is the problem of having Live Helpers? Are they being told to answer just a specific type of question? If ignoring everyone is their goal, that is being accomplished all too often. If Live Help is a waste of user's time, please tell us and we'll certainly stop using it.

The Live Help as it was originally designed was not meant to scale to help support the community we currently have. You might want to read Cyn and Pathfinder's recent thoughts on how support and volunteerism will scale in Second Life:
