This is my first post to The fourms, ever.
I am a new player, two days old, and I am getting very fed up with all the downtimes, crashes, freezes, bugs and other various annoyances, would it be so incredibly impossible to set up an in-company Beta-test team to (thouroughly) test new features and fixes to make sure they don't make the game WORSE?
After reading around the fourms in this latest downtime (I am very dissapointed at the extreme lack of updates/detail, by the way) I have seen that residents aren't very happy.
Linden, Read your own forums, you'll have much more sucess, and don't start saying that you can't setup a beta team because of expenses, people are paying thousands for servers and then hundreds after for 'maintanance' which is actually only required every three months max, so you don't have an exuse for a lack of money.
Second life is a very innovative, entertaining game with many bugs and downtimes included for no extra cost, and it's gearing up to drive off new (and old) players.


Well, good luck with that.
