Apparently someone's dropping LSD in the water cooler at LL again.

Consider LL one of your suppliers. Saying "fuck you" to your supplier is not professional. Saying "fuck you" in their own forum is very much not professional.

You learned something today. There are people who can smell your shit. One of them wields a ban hammer. Tread more carefully.

Honestly, with the emergence of the OpenSim grids, is there any reason at all for a university to invest in SL itself? I can't think of any viable reason.

PS - I am glad you got it resolved, Sarah. I was about to get very loud about your banning.

Your entitled to your opinion, but I don't think you have a real grasp of what LL has financially done to people who paid thousands and thousands into it. And I'm not just talking about today's actions.

And I did learn something today. Your a bit of a douche. Let me know next time your down so I can come kick you around a little. Hows that for professional?

I see a business opportunity here. I really have nothing invested in SL, I could care less about a ban, or suspension, I have nothing to lose. For a "reasonable" fee, let me be your voice of anger. Pissed at a Linden? Let me tell them what you think of their ancestry. Some greasy lothario chatting you up and asking you to be his toilet? Let me orbit him for you. Your SL sweetie, bumping pixels behind your back? I can fix that too. I can be The Equalizer. *Anyone remember that show?

If it is, it's ahead of ...uhm let's see....stealing, scamming, griefing, content theft, harrassment, alt abuse, and various methods of gaming the system. I guess making a Linden Supersad is a capital offense.

LL has fucked people over, over, and over, and over.

At this point, Jack Linden's lucky Sarah didn't fly out to SF, squat over his upturned face, and lay a big brown coiler into his open mouth.

It's not enough to devalue her regular sims by, what, 60%? Now she's getting fucked on the OS front as well.

So, yes, "Fuck you LL" seems tremendously professional, under the circumstances.

Hosts? Let's get this one thing straight. When I am sitting on SL without paying for L$ and Land then I'm being "hosted". However, I am not. I am paying for L$ and Land and therefore it's a service.


And frankly, their service blows.

SL's feature set and available content still far outstrip those of the OS grids.

wow, I'm appalled at the level of professionalism here. As a GM of a server I think I would have reacted the same way. After hearing comments like that all the time you hit your breaking point. You hit the wrong person on the their wrong day. Apparently, you were a little nicer the second go around.

They've given me "disciplinary warnings" for merely saying the word "fuck" in concierge chat before. I said something like "If I wanted the KB pasted to me I would have looked it up in the fucking KB in the first place"

What I want to know is why a company thinks it's their place to "discipline" paying customers. We aren't their children. AT&T doesn't "discipline" me if I prank call someone. Where the hell does Linden Lab get off "disciplining" paying customer for anything?

I pay Linden Lab about $18,000 USD per year. Most companies kill for contracts that large, but LL "disciplines" you for saying Fuck. Fuck that.

It's just a stupid move. If you call your cable company and yell at the operator and curse them out. you will get hungup on probably, and whatever problem you are having will not be addressed, but as long as your bill is paid, they aren't going to turn off your service. And that's all SL is, like you said. It's a service. That's all. The smell of money is usually stronger than the smell of shit. I'm not advocating special treatment for special people, but a warning should have been enough in this situation, no matter who the person was.

Well, available content wouldn't necessarily be an issue for a private grid with their own development.

LSL implementation being pretty incomplete is an issue. And allowing people to upload mono assemblies unsandboxed is way too dangerous.

You'll need a sort of sandboxed language to complete with SL, that's the bottom line.

Also, opensim is slow.

You gotta be kidding. They did *what*?

That's just daft. That's not how you treat customers. I bet you wouldn't do that to Anshe Chung.
