I can't log in!!!The grid is open!!Please reply!!!!!!!!!!!

Why can't I log in?!I looked up the grid status and it said it was open,I've re-installed many times!!


So? Whats the deal with sl?! I see that there's only 2 of my friends online.

according to the blog it was restricted to linden log-in only for a bit. was probably that.

Nope. Back down again. Fun fun fun.

I just got spammed with objects on my land, so I'm guessing it's another grid attack.

A friend of mine was getting super object spammed, I wonder if there is a small attack going on. *shrug*

It was a mass global attack...I hope they lynch the person/s who did this....

Grid attack! Objects are given from Ravenglass rentals, and many unnice pictures are emitted!! all over!

Grid's up and down like an elevator today! Gotta pity the Lindens on duty right now.

Oh, and email communication from outside to inside seems to have died as well from the stress:

Yeah, that's what I'm getting. If anyone is in-world, just set yourself to Busy mode and you won't see it try to give you anything.

Well.. except for decline spam in your history window.

Thanks! Wish I'd know that before I logged out!
Well, I will next time ....
CH

AHHH my log in works now but now I'm getting object spammed from ravenglass rentals GRID ATTACK AHHH!!!! I don't want my second life ruined its the only life I actually have!!

...and in the end it's only round and round...

GUYS! MUTE DOES NOTHING TO STOP THE ASSET SERVER ATTACK. LOGOUT.

Trust me. People are still getting the messages offline when muting. Logout and give it up until the Lindens fix the problem. I know we all hate to do it, but your just going to be stuck and eventually crash/get kicked anyway. Help the asset server out and do it on your own when you first get attacked.

I just did that, had to just give up and log out...had dozens of items coming at me from an unknown object or person. Prior to that when I was logged in a large part of my inventory (which was small to begin with tyvm) was missing. I DO hope its all back where it belongs when they get this fixed.

I was attacked by 5 different people/objects/groups before the sim I live in dropped me on my head. I was able to let Live Support know before that and I *think* I might have received an object on accident (I was muting things left and right and did NOT click accept!), called something landmine. Wasn't able to see the full name before being dumped so beware! I'll be doing a complete review of my inventory when I get in.

*grrs and wants to flog the one responsible*

Just got this in world, so at least they're on it.

They've been on it for the last 3 years.

*ponders on the concept of "eye for an eye" and an IP logger script to throw at the perps to keep them from making new free alts and ruining everyone's fun*

Yes, I know.. invasion of privacy and all, but drastic times call for drastic measures.

Checked the status page and it said it was up

Tried to log in

All I got (rather than the usual "down for maintenance" message was "Login Failed". I'm only here since August but I haven't seen that one yet. Is that indicative of a big issue? Or just another way of saying "Yes, you have to play First Life now"?

Both

Actually you get that sometimes when login is shut down. But oui it is usually a sign that not all is well with our SL worlds

Usually when this shit happens the lindens scramble around trying to figure out wtf is going on. One thing I've noticed is that a lot of lindens in world and on duty aren't very script knowledgable.

So they'd probably forget to edit the status page 'n' the login down message while they're working on trying to stop the attack.

I can say that I'm getting fewer decline notices now, so maybe they are actually doing something

Check the grid status again.

How long do you guys think this will last?

I'd rather have them put a simple, to the point note on the status page and longins down message and hop on the issue pronto than type out a big ol' spiel on the status page before dealing with the problem. Glad they're on this one pretty fast and hope we can get back in soon.

I dumped this on the newspage for SLDrama for when the forums here decide to grind to a halt. Considering they are tied direct to the same databases, they tend to when offered the chance.

Have to admit, this IS getting old. Can't they at least have some IMAGINATION when they are going to crash the grid? Where are the Tribbles(tm)? Where are the Borg Cubes(tm)? Where are the Gremlins(tm)?

Can't they do anything NEW?

Pathetic.
