Yeah, voice won't lag the grid.... sure thing.

From: The Blog
Operations reports all services are fully restored. If your in world L$ balance is incorrect or stalled at “Loading…” a quick relog should fix it. Thank you for your patience this evening, and we apologize for the inconvenience.


I relogged 5 times now, still "Loading". Can't upload textures. Friend list won't work. Scripts misbehave (llSetText not working etc.). Looks like all services are fully borked, nothing is restored here.

Goodbye being productive today, goodbye weekend sales. But I only pay them a mere $1200 each month for classifieds and tier, how could I possibly expect a stable service?

Are you from Germany? Seems there's a Telekom problem, in addition to the borked grid. It also affects other German ISPs that rent DSL lines from the Telekom (pretty much all of them except for Arcor). Alyx posted a solution earlier that worked fine for me:

From: Alyx Sands
Yes, it's probably not the Lindens' fault at all, I have been sending messages back and forth with Warren Linden on support and he also supsects provider probs. It's sucky German Telecom again. Just use differnet DNS servers than the ones autamatically assigned to you and it should work. Try these: 194.25.2.129 and 194.25.2.130 if you have a DSL connection by German telecom (but via 1&1). You might not be able to reach your router then, but you should be able to log onto SL until the usual DNS servers have got themselves sorted out.


Only helps you to log in though, once you're inworld the bugs attack.

Its more then a location problem it seems. Because other issues within Sl is really causing problems. TP, search, etc. all are failing bad!

If you use Windows XP, open "Start --> Einstellungen --> Netzwerkverbindungen". Right-click your Internet connection and select "Eigenschaften". In the tab "Netzwerk", highlight the TCP/IP protocol and click "Eigenschaften". Activate "Folgende DNS-Serveradressen verwenden" and enter the following addresses:

Bevorzugter DNS-Server: 194.25.2.129
Alternativer DNS-Server: 194.25.2.130

You'll have to disconnect and re-connect afterwards.

07-29-2007 01:43
And of course the comments are closed on their blog post saying everything was fixed, guess thy dont want to hear anyone saying, "No its not fixed, its worse than it was before LL 'fixed' it.".

Not fixed enough, apparently.

I received a blue box issuing an "all clear" message around 1:30 am SLT, and it instructed me to relog to clear up any remaining issues. After finishing some land clean-up, I tried to work on my group, but it was inaccessible.

So I went to relog, and... "Login failed." Three time, different locations, same thing. Tried once more with an alt, and it didn't get the fail message, but it didn't connect either. Just sat there trying to log on for maybe five minutes before I quit. Tried one more time with my main, and it failed again.

Oh well, back to the Harry Potter book I guess. ;)

Can't edit profile. Nothing is working. Don't buy anything FFS!


I can't get in despite maaaaaany attempts. But yanno this is good advice, don't buy things right now and leave your inventory alone. Your hair looks alright, m'kay? You don't NEED to show someone stuff right now. It will prolly never come back if you do and nothing takes the shine out of SL more than that.

Take it from someone who has lost some stuff which replacement of the item will never replace how SL was before it was lost because of the after effects ...

I know we've only known each other four weeks and three days, but to me it seems like nine weeks and five days. The first day seemed like a week and the second day seemed like five days. And the third day seemed like a week again and the fourth day seemed like eight days. And the fifth day you went to see your mother and that seemed just like a day, and then you came back and later on the sixth day, in the evening, when we saw each other, that started seeming like two days, so in the evening it seemed like two days spilling over into the next day and that started seeming like four days, so at the end of the sixth day on into the seventh day, it seemed like a total of five days. And the sixth day seemed like a week and a half. I have it written down, but I can show it to you tomorrow if you want to see it.

All my friends freeze in place and don't talk to me. Then I push them up against the wall and they disappear. Then they log back in and apologize for crashing. Also I can't send any Notices to my group or even see the archive of them. And my friend can't IM the group either.

Also the map doesn't work, and my favorite shop for scanners is now in an Unknown Region according to Search.

Fortunately, my shoes are on my feet *knock on wood*.


To you they are ... maybe not to everyone else!!

*edit* wait it doesn't matter about everyone else they can't see you anyway LOL

Yep, still Login Failed although the login screen says it's Online, parts of the website still down (including of course the Support portal!) and a status message that SL is Offline ... but nothing at all on the blog since the "Resolved" post.

Guys, the last one out the door is supposed to switch off the LIGHTS, that's all!

I just finished dinner, and now I'm getting ready to watch the second half of the "The Jerk".

Shame I can't TP the rest of you guys here to my place, cause it sounds way better than SL right now! :D

Were they interviewing Danny Boy again?
