  31. 31 IntLibber Brautigan Says:

    Already gotten help from Frontier, and appreciate it mightily, podnah. I must say customer service has significantly improved recently, with Lexie, Lucy, Lizzie, Frontier and all the rest being very prompt as well as enthusiastic to help this cattle baron with strays, rustlers, and sick and ailing baby sims (yes Lucy, you were great!). Keep up the good work folks.

  32. 32 Hyperstar Tsuki Says:

    If he’s really a frontier, where’s his 6 shooter, and 10 gallon hat?

  33. 33 Anthony Babcock Says:

    ditch the 10 gallon hat, trade the 6 shooter for a auto riffle……..cause when things go down……..or your horse lags to the point you cant ride it……………you will need more than your chaps to protect yourself!

  34. 34 Naomi babcock Says:

    *hands frontier a riot shield* You’re gonna need that, bubba. Good luck.

  39. 39 Vampyre Yongho Says:

    SECOND LIFE: The Meta Frontier

    =D

    Thanks everyone for the very warm welcome! My name is Frontier Linden, The New Liaison on the Block!

    This has been a fast-paced non-stop adventure! So much has been learned, and so much left to be learned!

    Second Life is jam packed and loaded with creativity! Each day I get to explore new places! Please send me photos of your favorite places on Second Life!

    There are many things to love about Second Life! This is truly a global experience. Each day I meet residents from all over the globe!

    Residents are encouraged to share photos from their part of the globe with me. Don’t forget to include a little bit of description text with each photo so I can learn something new!

    Looking forward to being your guide,

    Frontier Linden

  43. 43 Avariel Falcon Says:

    Greetings Frontier Linden,
    We have met, last night you were one of the Linden’s who rescued us from the horrid bug thing that griped the Big Brother sim. It was good to be able to leave after being traped in the world of grey people for so long.

    After people logged out they still remained in-world, stuck forever as hovering statues and you were one of them! As the sim was going down I snaped a picture and there you are, Frontier Linden! ^_^

  44. 44 Usagi Musashi Says:

    The one the only char linden :) happy Holidays char :)

  45. 45 Suzanna Soyinka Says:

    I’ve already met Frontier, so far, all I’ve really found a need for is to write a review of his customer service skills and email it to you Char. So far, interactions with Frontier have not been all that promising.

    I miss Spike. At least I can call Dee during the day and things get done.

  46. 46 K W Says:

    Welcome to the wild wild west version of all MMORPGs! A shield is’nt really enough, here *hands Frontier a 6 shooter* Now you’re prepped and ready cowboy! Welcome aboard! ^^

  64. 64 Kyushu Tiger Says:

    “we can have virtual horses”

    Yes :) Fawn, search for the profile of Erin Talamasca, she and her husband Dave are making some nice looking horses. She has links to them in her Picks.

  65. 65 Cliff Dieffenbach Says:

    Congrats Frontier!

  66. 66 DR Dahlgren Says:

    Welcome Frontier. Hope you are a quick learner. Plenty to do, thats for sure. I posted earlier, but attempted to get some other stuff in and it was pulled. They left Barber Barbarossa’s incoherant rant, but pulled mine. Oh well, such is the way it goes.

    Remember, even though it is work ( worlds nastiest four letter word) it should still be fun… if you can pull that off, you’re a winner.

    DRD

  67. 67 Aenea Says:

    Heya, Frontier! Welcome!

    Please send a Linden bear my way! YAY!!!

  68. 68 Dereck Drebin Says:

    Greetings…..may I suggest a cloaking device? :P

    You should visit the Teen Grid sometime. :D

  69. 69 Sandra Nolan Says:

    I would like to say welcome Frontier, I wish my first experience with you had been positive.

  70. 70 Nicole Matahari Says:

    “Frontier is our newest Linden Liaison and is enthusiastic to meet you and help answer your questions.”

    OK FRONTIER..

    20K people GOOD LUCK.

    Give my crash log peek. Am I not supposed to hang out at one of the most popular places? If a sim holds 100 avatars why does it crash at 60? And why can’t you walk at 40? (Scripts are off for visitors.)

    “The road to positivity is strewn with the abandoned vehicles of the faint-hearted.”

    (three cheers for search engines, finding me an appropriate quote in a split second!)

    Welcome, Frontier! I hope you enjoy your adventures here.. Happy trails to you!

    ps. ‘Yes Please’ if the Linden Bears are still on offer.. thanks!

  72. 72 Jane Calvert Says:

  74. 74 Huns Says:

    Welcome to the happy place.

  75. 75 Precursor Says:

    Welcome Frontier - always nice to see more people on board to help out :-)

    Oh and congrats to LL for stabilising the grid - and getting things working once again. I noticed the online concurrency of users can hit 21k or more, and things still keep ticking :-) Good to know!

    It’s a shame people are so quick to complain, but slow to praise. If anyone is in any doubt, it shows that LL have been working hard over the past few weeks to get it sorted, and the fruits of those works are now showing!

    Anyway, welcome once again Frontier :-)

  76. 76 Jay Zona Says:
