Since LL does not communicate with you, I will

From the thread:
Warning: Automated suspensions for paying out money
A friend of mine asked me to post this on her behalf to warn others:

Earlier today, a friend of mine was working in SL an ongoing project that had reached the point of needing stress testing before going live. She lined up some testers, and offered to pay them $1000L if they would submit a report after their testing. Nothing unusual - the test went fine, and she paid out $1000L to about 15 individuals who turned in their reports. Without any warning while doing this, she was suddenly knocked off line with a message saying her account had been suspended pending investigation for gambling activities. The recipients also had the same thing happen.

To add insult to injury, as you know, Linden Lab rolls up the sidewalks at 5:30 and goes home until Monday, instead of behaving like a real grown up company, so of course no one can be reached to resolve this situation until Monday.

If you are having any kind of event and pay out money to individuals as prizes, be careful.

I would add to be careful gifting money to anyone or paying salaries etc.

Hey LL: Thanks for the warning! You guys communicate worse than my parrot. And it's dead.

So every time I pay out my employees I get banned?

That's a blatant violation of TOS.


(oh, and your parrot's not dead. He's merely pining for the fjords.)

Not sure how quickly the automated ban gets triggered. But be careful testing it out.

And yes, he is expired. Gone on to meet the choir invisible. This is an ex-parrot.

'E's not pinin'! 'E's passed on! This parrot is no more! He has ceased to be! 'E's expired and gone to meet 'is maker! 'E's a stiff! Bereft of life, 'e
rests in peace! If you hadn't nailed 'im to the perch 'e'd be pushing up the daisies! 'Is metabolic processes are now 'istory! 'E's off the twig! 'E's kicked the
bucket, 'e's shuffled off 'is mortal coil, run down the curtain and joined the bleedin' choir invisibile!! THIS IS AN EX-PARROT!!

Lovely plummage though, eh?

Thats a bit crappy. So now you can't work in SL nevermind gamble.





He can pine all he wants, the fjords have been split into 16m2 plots and sold to ad farmers.

lol!

*bangs stiff, dead parrot on countertop for effect*

You want to come back to my place?

I wonder if ya had all the sploder pay Robin and Phil Linden 50 each...would they get banned? hehehe

But ya if this story is true LL has gona big time Natzi

Nothing like uneven-handed justice.

I really dislike the entire guilty till proven innocent mess.

Meenwhile actual Kacinos are still running in less traveled parts of the grid.

LOL! Things to do with your alt #1.

If/when I can get back in-world, I am so rezzing a dead parrot in a cage.

Godwin's Law gets invoked pretty quickly on the forums, I've noticed.

I heard First Bling is actually an iron cross

Maybe LL policy is written by a dead parrot...

/me prays that's an actual proposition and that you're just not quoting the last line of the sketch.

"Without any warning while doing this, she was suddenly knocked off line with a message saying her account had been suspended pending investigation for gambling activities."

If this is true, I wonder how long it takes to clear your good name and if you need a virtual lawyer...

Great. Now do you know an inworld private eye that can locate my missing scripted crab?

burrrp! sorry i didn't know it was yours.

Only when Nazi is spelled correctly does Godwin's Law apply.

he he....
How do you keep an idiot in suspense?

well come on, are you going to tell us or not.

That really is a crappy way to do things. I think if it were me, once cleared I'd tell Linden to stuff their game and spend my money elsewhere.
