And it's already fixed, for crying out loud.


Well if you're going to adopt that tone:

"It is possible that more work, including grid downtime, will be necessary to completely correct the problems."

Not only that...

"One of our central database servers suffered a failure (an unfortunately common theme of late). Our Operations team began a recovery on the server almost immediately and things have returned to normal. As the cause of the failure is still unknown, we will continue to investigate. "

Leaving that unchecked could have been catastrophic. Good catch LL.

"and to come on as a new player and have all these problems right from the get go doesnt really wanna make me continue to pay them my money, or play this at all. in fact, It makes me want to demand a refund and uninstal the SL from my computer"

Marianne, I see I'm not the only one thinking of the "fatal hardware error" logout message of a few months back. They pulled the plug without warning then, and rightly so. I'm going to give them the benefit of the doubt and think it must have been something equally, or nearly equally, serious and sudden this time.


Oh ya. Hadda be a Really Big Deal. Hearing it was a central database issue, well, they clearl (in my eyes) made the right call.
