while I was WEARING IT!


I have now had this happen at least 5 times to items while wearing them.

In my case, each time was while I was editing the object (which I am creating).

For the last two times, because I was using a unique name with an appended date I can verify using search that it is nowhere in my inventory. It simply ceased to exist.

Add me to the list of casualties. Approximately 1600 items *poof* gone. The Lindens I have had contact with over this did try and help and put a lot of effort into it. Unfortunely it did not recover any of my lost items.
The ones I built I can remake, the ones from where I work can be replaced but what really hurt was losing my Dazzle ones as the store is no more. :(

I'm afraid to log on, I got TONS of Dazzle stuff, while I was thinking, surely the owners are knowing about this and are replacing as they can, I hadn't thought about Dazzle, and I just LOVE Dazzle's flexi items.

IT's the wrong word. :(

Many items that were here and been used BEFORE this all started has disappeared. Some people who have used avs for months, the entire folder is gone. :(

I had a customer a while back IM that he's lost a fountain that he'd bought - put it on his land and then it just disappeared. i wondered about it and told him to file a bug report if it didnt' come back. But all this sounds incredibly bad - an dhugely bad for business.

I'm missing several skins I recently bought at $1000L each. Including the one I am wearing!

My avvie looks perfectly normal, but when I search for the skin that I KNOW I am wearing, it doesn't show up. So then i searched under the keyword "WORN." Guess what, it says I'm not wearing a skin. Except that I am. Now I am afraid to take it off!

OK. Stupid question. How do I "count" the number of items in inventory?

Missing items also

I purchased an item on SLexchange yesterday and it was delivered. But today after the "fix" it is not in my inventory. This is such poor service. I am another player who would like to know what the hell is going on and why we aren't being compensated for items lost after "fixes".

Check out Linden Answers.. many questions about this topic and so far no real response.

My wife made a nice wand today.. took it to invo and poof it was gone. This is the third or fourth time things like this have happened to her since the big "fix" for the permissions bug.

I am thinking that asset server is in worse shape then we imagined.

After the update on wednesday my ALT bought an avatar from myself and the client crashed, on relogging the avatar had vanished.

I sell multi gadgets, I had a customer complain his multi gadget vanished after he crashed.

Then a lady came to see me saying some of the people she had brought to my store to purchase multi gadgets had the same thing happen and again straight after a client crash.

Tonight I purchased another 19 multi gadgets, as I dragged them to the JEVN server the client crashed and on relogging all 19 multi gadgets had vanished.

I am now afraid to purchase anything and wondering if I should shut off my vendors till they fix this problem. This is bad news.

I was scared to log in too......... Apparently one of our SIMS went missing but thank God its all intact now.



I havent noticed anything missing from my inventory however this has been a problem for quite some time now


I do have one of those wet ikon for AO thingies (Not sure the correct name) attached to me but its not displaying in inventory; it has never done this before. Im scared to click on it on my avatar and take off so i just "drop" it and edit it. Ill be POd if i take it off and it doesnt list in inventory; thats hundreds spent on AOs gone

whatever the reason LLneeds to find it, fix it, and fast.

I am getting word (and of course this is my opinion and other creators, so take it as you wish), that they are making things no transfer for now, so that replacements to be given away are just copies and can't be resold just in case of an untruthful buyer.

I think this is just a case of inv's not loading properly.

I play SL from 2 comps, 1 has a fAster net connection than the other.

On my comp with fast net my inventory loads, but on my slower net comp tons of my items are "missing".

Its a kind of inbuilt self-clean-up... and to force us all to shop more and again and again..

Search your inventory for any word, and wait for the search to complete. An item count will show at the top of the list. The word "terraim" is a fairly good one, as it doesn't get many actual hits, but will eventually get some when you get to the "Library" section.

I purchased a ton of stuff from sl boutique today and didnt receive one single item, not one. i sent a msg by e-mail and one in sl to the commerce leader and have not hear a peep from either one. I spen over 2,000 L's on these items.
I am red hot!!!
Of course the taking of our money ALWAYS WORKS!!!! THERE NEVER SEEMS TO BE ANY PROBLEM WITH TAKING OUR MONEY!!! HOW COME THIS NEVER BREAKS DOWN

I WANT MY BOUGHT AND PAID FOR ITEMS GOSH DANG IT, THEY BELONG TO ME NOW NOT YOURS ANYMORE!!

SERIOUSLY, WHAT DO I DO...I CANNOT AFFORD TO LOSE THIS KIND OF MONEY ON THESE ITEMS I DID NOT RECEIVE??????

SO FRUSTRATING, SO WRONG


Fairmaiden, First off, calm down.

Getting upset about bugs in SL is like getting upset about the weather, it does no good and wastes your precious energy.

There is a known bug causing this. Simply contact the creators of the objects, they can verify that you made a purchase, and most of them will be happy to replace your missing product. Some of them may not yet be aware of the bug. I was not until I read this forum thread, simply refer them to this thread if they were not aware of this latest bug.

Best wishes...

Has there been ANY official Linden response to this issue? Can they just tell us whether the items are gone, or if they will be returning to us after a patch/tweak? Are they truly deleted or just hiding somewhere in a database?

I'd like to know this BEFORE I start approaching vendors asking for replacements.

not so much as a "We understand your frustration and are investigating the issue"

My concern is that the Grey goo fixes have F'd up the garbage collection system.. and not only are the items being orphaned from ourr inventory (and around our necks - in the case of a collar I was wearing).. but may be being summarily being deleted (since the whole 'relog to a new region' and notecard things dont' bring the content back.)

I'd like my architectural textures back. I'd like my collar back (even though Mistress bought me a replacement)..

But more than that, I'd like one single linden to just respond to ONE of the missing inventory posts... and say "yes, we're looking into it... you caught us right after a huge drama filled bugfix, and a lot of us turned off our cellphones for the weekend.. sorry."

It seems we have a number of distinct inventory problems.

Has everyone having these problems filing bug reports? If not, doing so might be of some value.

I don't see these listed in the known issues, at http://secondlife.com/support/known-issues.php . Am I just overlooking them?

SuezanneC: Thats the whole point of most of the rants here. Despite many residents having filed bug repoorts and posting about the issue here THERE HAS BEEN ABSOLUTELY NO SIGN OF LIFE FROM LL ON IT. NOWHERE . NADA.
