Prokofy declares war on Jira

Prokofy neva has started attacking jira, the SL issue tracker. Determined to "overthrow the evil controlling cabal of coders who run second life"

The main battleground is here:

https://jira.secondlife.com/browse/WEB-382

Prokofy starts out by accusing us of abusing the power lindens grant on jira. And then accusing lindens, when Rob Linden personally tells her to fuck off (in more tactful words, of course)

She's also been spanning out here

https://jira.secondlife.com/browse/MISC-57

and here

https://jira.secondlife.com/browse/WEB-399

And even on her own blog. An entry aptly titled:

The Battle For The Soul Of Second Life

yes. She really named it that.

And Lex Neva's counter blog. Far more worth your time, if you ask me.

Jira Drama


I would hope anyone who ever looked at it, could see what a mess the old Feature Voting Tool was. There was no ability to edit features, comment on them, fix duplicates, attach relevant files, prioritise, organise, etc etc. The voting system was unfair, and it was generally a black hole where ideas went to die.

Prokofy speaks of it like paradise, though. Jira has all of the above, and more. Including most notably, the ability for the community to collaborate and sort things out, meaning one less thing for LL to mess up, and allowing decent ideas to be heard among all the noise.

I think it's pretty clear which side of the debate I'm on by now. If you haven't had enough drama this week, there's plenty of reading material. I'd love to hear everyone's thoughts on the matter.

Jira is overly complicated but it's a professional tool and far more useful to LL than feature voting.

I suspect Prok roles a dice about what to complain about. And should get out more.

I couldn't get past the first paragraph of the blog entry, where she shows such a profound lack of understanding about Google and Facebook that I can only imagine what comes next. Facebook will save us from our Google oppresors! Somone better let MoveOn.org know, since they are currently in a fight with Facebook over the lack of privacy of their new ad system. As curious as I am on how Prokofy can actually tie this all into a jihad against Jira, I can't get sucked into the insane abyss again. Ok, I can at least go to sleep amused.

Someone should explain to Prokofy that the 'soul' of Second Life is written in computer code.

What does she think happens? Wee people inside her computer pulling levers and switching switches?

I'm troubled that you could so pump up these condescending and insolent tekkies on the JIRA like Lex Neva, Angel Fluffy, and WarKirby. You shouldn't be singling out for favouritism such obviously abusive characters, the latter two of whom bleed their BDSM controlling lifestyle into the public domain.


JIRA is going to turn into a flame fest forum and will need moderation. For a while it has been relatively quiet but that is passed.

Quote:
Some might think, oh, intolerant! It's not about BDSM! And lifestyles!

Oh, but it sure as hell is. Is it any accident that the Capture Roleplay freak Angel Fluffy destroyed the one democratic institution of Second Life, the Feature Voter -- and enabled busy and irresponsible and inconsiderate Lindens to finish it off with a closure?

You don't write, as WarKirby does, "I'm a natural dominant with a strong desire to control and dominate" on your profile without getting a pushback from me : )
OMG hahahahaha....

I wonder if someone should suggest to Prok that they (he? she?) is a failed Dom and hates all the other leaders! Dom or otherwise

Some people exist purely to be adversarial. From the standpoint of self-actualization I'm glad This Person has something to scream about, I just wish it was about a real injustice.

The 'world' of SL is bullshit and over the last couple years LL has made that abundantly clear. It sucks to fall for a lie but it's just sad to cling to it so violently.

Someone is struggling for relevancy in a world that finds her increasingly irrelevant.

I see a Jira ban in her future.

Not on your life. I flush out the problem *right in the open*. The problem IS this ideology and this cult, and it *is* taking over Second Life's institutions and mechanisms as you can see. So fight back. Stop pretending it's not the issue.
OMG I am in a cult!! that is "taking over Second Life's institutions and mechanisms" OMG hahaha. And here I was thinking that the Lindens were running the software and mechanism and we ALL were participating.

I so wish I could drop this graphic

On those JIRA pages

I really hope the free thinking sensible people of the world continue this invasion over the small minded and fearful.

Who is going to make such a noble sacrifice to save us all? And should chains be involved?

There aren't enough words. She makes up new ones all the time.
