From the blog:

Quote:

As part of a plan to increase overall stability of the grid today during peak usage hours, our operations team will make some changes at 1:00pm SLT that will reduce overall database load and create a more reliable experience for everyone. As a side effect of these temporary changes, some group and avatar profile services will not be available.

Specifically:

* Avatar profile information will not be trasmitted to the viewer. This affects both floating and
embedded profile windows.

* General group information (name, charter, etc.) will not display
in floating or group embedded group info windows.

* Groups will not show their member lists.

* Group owners and officers will not be able to eject group members.

* Group proposals will open the UI, but will fail to create.

* About Land will show 0 for traffic.

Please note that all of these effects are temporary and will return to normal behavior when we re-enable these services at approximately 4:30pm SLT. At that time you should either relog or run Client -> Clear Group Cache (a Debug option) in order to refresh group behavior.
We will update this blog post to indicate when these services have actually been disabled, and again when they are again re-enabled.

Over the next week or two, we will be making some changes to the database cluster that we believe will significantly reduce the effects of peak loading that many of you have experienced over the past several weeks. The mitigating measure we’re taking above is something we will only use until those permanent changes are in place.

Thanks for your patience.

next, they'll disable chat to help with the load.

RetrosWorkshop · 04-06-2008, 02:41 PM

I noticed that.

I was planning to do some changes in the groups I own today

. Need we more proof that SL is permaborked??

badkittybeth · 04-06-2008, 02:44 PM

This is ridiculous...

of all the stupid things...

Mourna Biziou · 04-06-2008, 02:54 PM

If it helps keep me Inworld today, I can deal with it.

Dnate Mars · 04-06-2008, 03:11 PM

Next they will disable teleporting to reduce load. Then inventories. Then chatting. Then movements.

It will be great when we can just all stand there and look straight head. Sl will be able to handle the load then!

You have to do that already in some sims just to keep from crashing during peak times

. My two fave hangouts are like that.

Ann Launay · 04-06-2008, 03:18 PM

They decided to start early.

Dnate Mars · 04-06-2008, 03:21 PM

Too bad we couldn't get a mass protest together and get everyone to log out between those hours to just make a point.

I'm sure that what it'll come to, but LL will kick everyone, we won't choose to logout.

... under the excuse that they have to perform gridwide maintenance or some lame excuse like that.

Sofia Westwick · 04-06-2008, 03:36 PM

Its pretty sad when LL is getting so that have to deisable profiles, crippling many busniess people leaving us unable to IM anyone not on our friends list. and then people not able to send payments to you that are due.

what next?

This is one of the stupidest ideas I've seen form them yet

Restrict log-ins?

Sofia Westwick · 04-06-2008, 03:40 PM

Everyone should call LL and bitch about it and get on concierge chat and bitch about it

Cocoanut Koala · 04-06-2008, 03:46 PM

I notice that the entry is closed to comments. Surprise, surprise.

This whole thing just emphasizes what an insane place SL really is.

Dnate Mars · 04-06-2008, 03:50 PM

Just shut the damn thing down. This crippled usage is just bull.

Sofia Westwick · 04-06-2008, 03:52 PM

I was just talking to Kyle Linden in concierge chat he said the best thing to do is make tickets with the

summary as Supervisor Attention.

Then say our complants about whats going on in the ticket.

I wonder why...maybe because LL doesn't care what people really think and so they'll just do as they damn well please?

Well I'm Loged out, No point in being in SL in this crippled state.

who ever thought of disabling profiles and groups should be fired.

Stylez Gomez · 04-06-2008, 04:06 PM

Seems like we can't even drop inventory on peoples profiles either.
