Rolling restart for 1.24.7 2008 Sep 30-Oct 2

So where is this status blog with the reasoning? I dont seem to see it.

Thanks

Things are much better now than they used to be. **poke poke** And no one is forcing you to endure anything. Meanwhile you impose your incessant whining on the forum!

I am a paying customer and I have every right. Back when things were down on one single day i was able to schedule around it. Now i have to schedule around 3 days. I speak for many . It's not whining as you put it. It is a simple request.
My posts were for prospero not you. I could care less what you think feeel or do IN sl. Nor would i post any snotty remarks towards your requests.

Here's the thing, you are a paying customer. So am I. I read the TOS, and I live within it. Now, you and a lot of people go on and on and on and on about how these rolling restarts are horrible and that they should do something. Well, um, they -are- doing something. Prospero has said they are working towards something.

The problem, is that you (general finger point here) keep going on about it, and -nagging- about it. Like they should have this perfect solution -right now-.

And frankly, as a paying customer, I have every right to ask you lot to back down, cool it, and have patience. 'But we're losing business'. Well, sorry. I don't -have- a paying business (which often times, -pays- you enough that you -make- money off of SL, rather then spend it) and hell, I've lost swathes of my inventory. A couple of times, yes, I've respectfully asked the vendor if they could replace, a lot of the time I can't because it's freaking transferable (perhaps the worst permission for, in my mind, a product I buy). I'm not on here screaming at them to fix it. I'm also not screaming at vendors to replace things. Perhaps the problem isn't Linden labs, it's your customer base.

This is because, yes, I know they are working on it. this is also because I read the TOS I agreed to when I signed up. It doesn't just apply some of the time, it apples -all- the time. So yeah, you lost something. You lost a lot of thing, maybe. Um, sorry. They can do the little things. Roll back to a save point, but they're certainly not required to take the heaps of abuse I see a lot of people throwing at them.

So, hon, as a paying customer, I could care less how you feel. Just because you own a business doesn't somehow make you better then me.


Now, that all said, we -were- promised an update on it, and I am very curious as to why this restart happened. I would guess the delay in getting the message out was because they want to let it back and are making sure that the reason they had to do this was solved. But, that's guess work on my part, so yeah.

Sorry you do not understand what many are asking for. Thanks for your input.
Many of us have RL jobs and businesses to run . Rolling restarts start @ 8 AM on east coast. Start of working day. and they wait till day 2 to tell you odd or even . Great so Not everyone has all day long to sit and watch the status blog. As another event of this last rolling restart alot of script stopped working i had to spend several hours cleaning up again after it. Simple request to indicate odd or even on a given date would be sufficient information to be able to plan their lives around failed BS that they have to contstantly fix which has been a weekly ordeal these days.

It's 9:30 pm Friday evening in SF ... the roll is done ... 'nuff said?

Im sorry, did my question offend you to reply like that?

I was more concerned that there maybe an additional blog associated with the status page that I did not have the link for.

And I, too, am curious about what triggered the second rolling restart; but I'm also aware that depending on the cause of the restart and the success or failure of the restart to fix the original problem, it may not be possible to tell the residents what went on until later (Sat/Sun/Mon).

Just want to know something...

Some clubs in the SL world had little to no traffic yesterday.

something is really wrong with this new restart last nite, I have been in 4 sims chinhae ,buyeo ,cheosan,and hang gu each sim is dropping time dilation and FPS recovers then drops deeply again i have had all 4 sims restarted to try and help, restarts have not helped at all,, is anyone else having same bad sim performance issues after this restart?

After the heat in this thread, I wouldn't blame Prospero one bit, if when the emergency roll was finished, he didn't just stand up, click off his monitor, clock out, and go home.

I have experienced the same (on my mainland parcel), but it has already started earlier this week if I remeber correctly, even before the first rolling restart (it started after my sim went down the second I logged in, this btw has happend quite frequently lately, detatching everything hasn't made a difference so I'm sure it's not a borked script) - for no obvious reason Sim FPS drops down to as low as 1 (!), a few seconds later it's back to 45, then it randomly goes down again, recovers and so on (no obvious pattern in terms of time between the drops, doesn't matter how many people are around). I don't know what exactly causes it, but it has never been like that before and it's really annoying...

same issues here minke i talked to live help had all sims restarted and still broken live help says there is no issues at all and still nothing posted to status blog =(( i just TPd around to 6 or so other sims on mainland and all are same way

Yes, the 1.24.8 roll did finish.

No, we haven't posted the reasons for that yet. We will, but I don't anticipate that happening before early next week at this point.
