Hello, all, pardon the rare post on my part...

I've posted this prior, was told it was fixed, then was told it was added to the Known Issues list, which it apparently hasn't been, and thus, after checking if it was true in 1.9 preview and finding it is, I've decided to re-post it.

I have bug-reported this and was told it had been fixed, however, it has most definitely not. Thus, I am bringing it up here, as it is completely and utterly reproducable by any avatar on any system.

Bug: When on a female avatar the torso muscle slider is brought to the maximum (100), it will show during that login. On future logins, however, the torso musculature will be mysteriously shown at the default level. Going into Edit Appearance will "snap" it back to 100 only AFTER the Torso button is hit (the slider need not be touched whatsoever, as it will already SHOW that it's at 100). This behavior will have to be repeated upon each and every login in order to have the avatar appear correct, or else it will have the default torso musculature.

I had originally thought it may be a broken shape file, and tried a total reinstall, then a new shape file, and the process was consistent. I then had a few friends in female form attempt the same, the results were completely, perfectly duplicatable.

This occurs irregardless of machine specs, type, cards, or anything else, including geographic location, connection speed, network lag, etc.

I would dearly like this resolved, as it is an annoyance I would love to dispense with (having to edit my appearance every time upon login.)

I encourage any and all to attempt this and to report this bug, as it seems only the loudest of stinks seem to get resolved.

If there is ANY possible end-user solution to this (other than NOT having my avatar's appearance having maximized torso musculature) I would dearly like to know it.

With thanks in advance,
