I expect it's going to be slashdotted and at best the site is going to remain up for a full two seconds once 10:00 hits. The IT folks are going to have a nightmare trying to keep the website together with duct tape and bailing wire for hours today.

Well, if it doesn't work the first time, people are just gonna keep trying.. That will help.

But add: "child avatars must be allowed in an areas now specifically designated for extreme stuff"

No child avitars are now or have ever been allowed on any lands I have ever owned and never will be, period.
I have adult content Gorean rp land, no rp for children there so no need to them to be there.
I do not rp, interact nor speak to child avis simply because of the representation, plus your never really sure who your talking to in sl anyway, is it an adult posing as a child, or a child posing as an adult. It's to weird for me. i pay way to much to be bothered with guessing games. While it's true there will be and probably already are lots of kids running all over sl in the adult sim, I have "heard" some younger members "new adults" that make age verified avis and give them over to their underage friends. That is something else sl will have to figure out.
not meant to offend, JMHO

You are completly free to disalow anyone on your land for any reason, nobody is saying otherwise And yes RL underage people pose a far greater problem for people providing sexual content afterall it is more likely the pasha is underage in rl then a child avatar is.

While it might be interesting idea to create a Gorean RP without the sexual content but with children and family life I would not dream of expecting Gorean roleplayers to cater for this on their own sims and land, if I wanted to try that I would do it on my own sims.

What type of ticket, Sindy?
06-29-2009 10:00
I would assume a land ticket. Request to buy land.

I've spent almost 3 years buying land!!! Sometimes at _insane_ auction prices because LL wouldn't just give me an abandoned 512 that I owned 3 sides of. Or once that my neighbor and I owned _all_ sides of.

Ain't requesting a buy. They offered to swap me onto shiny new land for free.

(TY, though.. that might be the right one but I guessed at the "zindra question" one instead)

Thanks Qie.

In the absence of that, if it were me I'd have simply filled in the text part (of the buy land form) with the appropriate explanation of what was requested. But Qie answered it for you.

Well all submitted with a ticket number and everything.

Now I have another question, how do you normally get a reply to a ticket? Will they contact me in world, by email, what?

Thank you. I hope people post when they start getting replies. Right now I guess I will resist the urge to hover around the computer waiting... LOL.. somehow I don't think it will be all that quick.

How do you tell that?

OH nevermind. I just found support history. Mine still says New. Submitted at 10:09. I was a bit slow.

question, is Caledon going to be considered "adult friendly", or just mature?

Sindy must have nimble fingers. :p Mine says it was created at 10:05 and is still in "New", too.

We might as well start the FIC rumors and accusations now. They just like Sindy better.

If I was drinking something, it'd have ended up all over the screen. I've been screaming at them nearly non-stop for months about this stuff - at this point, I'm just hoping to not be ignored. FIC I am not.

I think it's more likely that "zindra question" is a category that gets pushed to the head of the support queue. Possibly even auto-opened. Hopefully, they won't say "wrong!" and make me start over in a few days (I don't think they will.. support is usually pretty cool.)

10:01 for me, BTW.. I had it all typed up last night and just did a copy/paste into the ticket. Bit over a 1/2 region split between 17 parcels and 3 groups - no way I was going to leave that un-typed-up until today.

i had mine typed too.. but had never done a ticket. So I didn't know I would have to fill out summary and detail. I mean in this case what is the point of those fields. Plus mine is just a lowly 1024.

I was only teasing on the FIC thing, but I imagine before this is all over we will hear serious accusations. Best of luck on getting your requested plot.

How many plots did people put down? I actually put my top six instead of three.

Then you're disqualified. :p

I just put in three. If I don't get one of them, I'll just take whatever 4320 they can carve out of an unwanted hillside somewhere, I guess.

I put 6 in as well LOL with a caveat that as we want a whole sim we were not fussed where it was as long as it was flat :)

I gave three choices...but each choice listed lots of plots. Basically, I told them all that would be suitable. I hope none of you people expect to be nude if you live next to me! :)

/me thought of doing more than 3 but I'm also requesting a full region. Or at least all the non-protected land of one.

The curve on which regions I liked the best was pretty steep; after the first 3, I really had to struggle to find ones I liked.

I suspect there will be a lot more people asking for swaps than they expected and I figure (hope!!) that if we don't get one of the 3 we asked for, there might be a round-2 to get in on..

It will interesting to see. Maybe for full regions they will be able to make more regions that are very simuliar to what you have requested and fill out the continent more. i would love to stay and keep and eye on this process.. but RL and fishing are calling me. I will check in and see what progress has been made when I come home.

Whatever happens I am actually interested to see what Zindra looks like in about a month from now.

If people post the ticket number and timestamp here:

http://www.slapt.me/wiki/index.php/Governance_Team_Actions#Zindra_Move_Ticket_Response_Times
http://www.slapt.me/wiki/index.php/Governance_Team_Actions#Zindra_Move_Ticket_Response_Times

We can start to track how long its taking, and get an idea, rather than hovering over the computer.

(of course if you update it when you hear back, that would be nice too)

By the way, based on normal ticket submission rates, it looks like we had 360 land swap tickets in the first 20 minutes

Although I'll probably watch it like a hawk for a while, I think the land swap is open for 3 weeks and we will likely not hear much of anything until that time is close to over..
