@ Ron Crimson

Apologises for my comment appearing to be personal, it wasn’t so intended. My experience up until 1.18.3.+ version was so sweet, no crashes (well very very few) hardly ever any lag, I could fly smooth, land on a spot within a few centimeters (but maybe my age is affecting that ability now) I could even drag textures straight from my inventory on to the side of prim. Not now.

To suggest that because you have no problems if anyone else does it must be on their end is short sighted at best. (no flame intended - jsut an observation). There are many variables involved. Your set of variables, cpu, os, memory, video, connection, to list just a few) may be a ok combination. It is certain it is not the same configuration as tens of thousands as others. Try not to squelch people’s expressions even if you do not share the view expressed, k? It uses up valuable and limited blog response space. Thanks!

@94 “Its like the last place on earth for free expression, Free Speech, free to do as you choose and portray yourself as you wish.”

LOL !!!

Well that was sure a long time ago…

Free speech… well as long as you don’t say something that annoys a Linden.

Free to do as you choose… NOT! You are quite restricted in the so called freedome with the latest additions in TOS, gambling ban, IDV-requests for all Mature things…

Portrait yourself… NOT! Switch gender, get a young avie, be someting nasty, be banned…

Not that there has to be some kind of order in the world, but full freedom does not exist. Face the facts… “LL’s world, LL’s imagination”, and we only pays to use that… Now even 25% more than before.

/me is pissed off on the total ignorance of the users.

“Thank you for your patience” BAH! What about something like “We are truly sorry for the inconvenience we are causing you”? The day when goats milk whisky for sure…

“Thanks to this great participation from Residents, we have a high degree of confidence in the stability of this viewer.”

Are they kidding, known bugs but we release it anyway? I’m sticking with my original plan, real life is way better than second life. No crashes!

Dekka @ 92:

Oh, now your experience is better than mine? Bit of an inconsistency problem here, no? Perhaps you didn’t read my comment carefully enough - I’m not having any problems of the kind everyone’s complaining about. To suggest that I don’t set my standards high enough is so ridiculous it’s almost funny. Heh

The feature I want, which does not appear to be in this version, is to get rid of the Communicate button and go back to the way it was before.

I don’t mind Groups and Friends on the same window as I like both in Portrait orientation. However, Chat and IMs need to be separated as I like that window in Landscape orientation, with minimal borders to waste screen space.

I understand that some people like the new Communicate button, so a menu option or command line option to switch between the two would be best.

I logged in yesterday, my first login after months. Sad to see, that nothing has really changed, besides the users online have doubled. Try to rezz something…missing from database. Blog comments still limited to 100 slots, which are of course filled very quickly. Of course there is no real discussion on important things, like VAT, on the forums instead.
Still got the feeling nobody really cares at LL. Along with this VAT thingy, that was just too much for me and that made me cash out yesterday. Preparing to sell my parcels and downgrade to basic.
The idea of SL is still so great, a shame what happens to it.

And the VAT thingy is going to cause you some headaches!
Smells illegally in some ways you introduced it, and i guess having an office in EU makes you a target for EU lawyers.

Good luck!
