ACS out, SLX & WSE followed by second thoughts...?



I saw this in the SLX forum earlier today but I can't seem to find it now. I'd just left it open in a tab like I often do (I love Opera) and didn't bother to read it till a little ago when I couldn't log back in to SL so I took a screencap. Looks like there were some other posts talking about it but they show up as non-existant. Where they all deleted?

Maybe the announcement was a little premature or they thought it best not to announce it today of all days?

it never even occured to me that it might be fake while reading. We'll have to see. It does sound fairly plausible though...

I hope it's a joke. I've spent way too much time putting my stuff up for sale on SLX to have the whole thing ruined by a (imho insane) merger with WSE.

If it's not a joke, then WTF are they thinking?

Or, why - for spending too much time getting my stuff on SLX?
1) Because I like my ads to be appealing so they sell my items.

2) Because I'm dyxlexic dyslxecic dyslexic and it takes me forever to put together a sentence so that anyone understands what I'm saying and forever to write what I really mean in the way I mean it.

Or why SLX?
Because I like its layout better than OnRez.

It was more "Why would you support the business of such integrity-deficit shitheads?" but to each their own I suppose.

Why is that "BS?" The extent of Apotheus' shittiness is well documented.

There is a lot of SLX history from several things. It's all on the forums for anyone to see if they care to look (Or care at all), here on SLU, on Second Citizen (Now gone) and the official forums.

I've noticed you have an item on SLX too. Why does Josh think I'm a integrity-deficit shit-head for using it but it's OK for you to use it?

How come he isn't tearing into you for the same thing?

I never said that you were an "integrity-deficit shithead," but the owners of SLX were. I think you misunderstood me and I apologize if you thought I was attacking you for using them.

Back the fuck off SLX users already, this is turning into a politically correct litmus test, FFS.

Something suspicious is going on.

I made a thread about this, with that picture, on the SLEx forums. Asking for clarification.

SLEx staff have silently deleted my thread without so much as a PM to explain why.

They seem to have locked- but not deleted - the thread this time. The image was also edited out of my post.

I wonder if anyone will bother to send a PM this time
