From: Colette Meiji If this thread gets deleted too, it was nice knowing it.
I am guessing it was a Linden who deleted the other thread,
Since Strife stated he didn't have the power to delete other's Posts. If my account gets suspended for starting it, it was nice knowing you all.

I always suspect lawyers at work, when truly inscrutable things happen. Imagine if She Of Sky rallied a Linden, casually mentioning the monthly fees for her "over 2,162,688 sq. meters of beautiful tropical islands" and vaguely hinting of legal action over defamation of character in these, SL's official Forums. Such a Linden might well be sensitized to that topic and consult counsel, and one might suppose counsel--on the way out the door for the weekend--might think prudence the better part of valor in this case. Just a hunch.
As much as we may think it best to warn other residents with specifics, this is one example where we're reminded that, just being practical about it, not naming names at least keeps the thread alive.

CHEERS! back to RA as it should (at least that's what i prefer).  all along, i've said we can make a GD site anywhere, with a link back to here for easy navigating. i have enjoyed socializing and getting to know new people, but this is RA and not GD, so I for one am glad to see some mods taking action! IBTD (in before the deletion)

I admit
03-08-2008 08:28
I have to admit that i have been living in sl . Really pretty unaware of the undercurrents I think that the lindens are missing the point of these threads. we want to make it a better PLACE!!!. There will always be grumbles but that does not mean that they should ignore them. No satisfaction was gotten from the abuse report or the ticket. Not even the satisfaction of having that account suspended. Although at least one of my group was suspended by false accusation. It seems that our plans fro handling the problem on the outside must continue as I feared. thanks to those of you who have been supportive!

I didn't even see where that thread was all that inflammatory
Perhaps the Lindens didn't like it being pointed out they are lax on consumer protection.

I only started this thread because I hate the silent messages LL is sending us with the deletion:
-Dissention will not be tolerated.
-We don't care about our customers.
-We are too understaffed to fix things that have gone badle awry.
-We like the misleading Land Sales Search system exactly as it is.
-We make poor kneejerk decisions.
-Any sense that you have that you have freedom or protection in SL is a false one.

The noise
03-08-2008 08:37
The noise is a monster of their own creation. IF they listened and responded instead of just sent out form letter they linden would have greater support! Keeping us in the dark about these problems on cause more unrest.

I clicked on the link in my email notification that someone had replied and got this:
Kaimi Kyomoon, you do not have permission to access this page. This could be due to one of several reasons:
1. Your user account may not have sufficient privileges to access this page. Are you trying to edit someone else's post, access administrative features, post a reply to a post-only forum such as the Hotline to Linden or the Classifieds or access some other privileged system? 2. If you are trying to post, your Second Life account may no longer be active, the administrator may have disabled your account, or it may be awaiting activation.

-Any sense that you have that you have freedom or protection in SL is a false one. Or maybe a little less ominous - Some new Linden decided they can make the Lindens look better by pressing a couple buttons. --------------------- -Your thoughts may be correct, I am just going by my observation that only new Lindens ever read the forums.
