From: Chris Norse Dammit. they can't do a freaking thing right. It is sad to watch this company slowly swirling around the bowl as it goes down. Ah well it's locked now so you can't edit it. Seriously, how do you get one of these Linden on tap batphones they've got over there?

Seriously, how do you get one of these Linden on tap batphones they've got over there? Even if you go back, and try to space your own paragraphs - it won't allow it, if you've copied and pasted from another source. You have to go in and manually add dashes, like this - - - between each paragraph to make a separation. Of course, this will not be an issue, as lengthy discussions requiring paragraphing are not allowed.

Beautifully put, I already had the pen out before I was even half way through. I wish I'd been in earlier so I could have made my mark on the blog post.
In the end we don't count, we're already here and they know we won't go and that's the true tragedy of this, they know they can ignore us because we'll always be here.
So, despite their best efforts, it's onwards and upwards.. We will get through this and then we can wait for the next "improvement" to our second life and we'll get through that too. If we hang together it will minimise the casualties.

As Accidental Avatar Squadron Commander, as well as one time Queen of this forum, it is my pleasure to award you, Lt Lindal Kidd, the Bronze Panties with Figtree Clusters, for Conspicuous Gallantry above and beyond the call of duty, in the face of a hostile but not very intelligent enemy. You are a credit to your uniform, if in fact you are wearing one.
*steps back and salutes you.
Your letter will also be in the AA blog tomorrow. Good show, Kiddo.

Great letter Lindal. I hope some at LL actually take the time to read it thoughtfull. It is not even a bash at LL. It is full of insights from a large part of thier customer base.
Great letter.
Sorry I didn't get a chance to comment over there before it locked.

I wonder if there is a Linden who can be given the letter in a notecard and who might actually read it?

The best thing anyone can do now is to go find those blog posts for articles with glowing praise of SL, follow the links and make a comment pointing out their poor customer relations. Only by embarrassing them in public will you have any chance of effecting change.

Corporate Thugs like M probably don't take to kindly to rebellion.

Everyone wants to blame M as being the evil dictator, but I haven't seen a shred of evidence to suggest any Linden thinks any different.

From: Milla Janick Or they think the same way. Some probably do, especially newer ones, they probably come from the same marketing cesspools M does. But I bet there are a few of the remaining holdovers who probably feel the same things we do, and use SL for enjoyment and care about it.

Well the locking of this letter FOUR TIMES on the Blorum pretty much indicates the level of listening that will be occuring when the foums lock - more of the same. Sigh.
