Oh.... I'm still in shock and laughing. I don't think I will ever figure LL out.

That's why I can't help but question the motive.

Oh god joshua, i'm sorry, should have checked here earlier and I could have saved you this anxiety. These folks are NOT moderators, see my post above. I think Robin was a little unclear, LL (to the best of my knowledge) basically decided NOT to go ahead with the resmod program as it has been in the past, so won't be appointing resmods anytime soon if at all. The new community manager would either put together a Linden moderation program, or completely reinvent the resmod program.

Ah thank you Nika, from the wording on the blog it didn't look that way at all. Nor did it look that way to those mentioned as exemplified by Nimrod's comments here and Broccoli's in the blog.

I feel much better now.

When it's dirty and secret it makes better gossip.

What is that list for?

I probably wouldn't have even looked at the forums very much anyways, too busy now. I barely have time to come here.

I think the motive is called "hand-waving in order to bump failures off the top of the blog and Torley wasn't available to create a 'how to walk in SL' tutorial".

I love how LF's sniggering blog post's pingback is the VERY FIRST COMMENT on the SL announcement. Kudos, LF, nice move.

I'll always remember Lewis as the idiot who argued with me about what time it was where I live.
