It’s not enough that IMs are capped (making it really tough for an estate owner to communicate with people) but it seems now Notecards are not working correctly either. Since then it’s been more daily issues with logins, lag, asset server/inventory problems, you get the picture. It’s a very very sad thing to see good people go (especially long-termers who’ve been around for a while) for fear of "what will happen to them" come the next maintenance rollout/asset server failure/grid issue. I’ve seen a number of people in the past few weeks re-evaluate their own personal investment in SecondLife, and sadly a number of them have chosen to leave the grid for fear of losing everything they’ve invested money in. This lacklustre response from Linden has brought to light a great deal of uncertainty in our little community about the future of Victoriana and the Linden grid itself. As you also know I sent out notices keeping everyone up-to-date about the status and eventually explained I would have to rebuild much of the estate from scratch and ‘fix the problem myself’. After numerous attempts via Concierge Chat and support ticket application, Linden failed to correct the issue after fourteen days… they didn’t even have the decency to contact me about the problem, or even move the ticket beyond "New" status (ie they didn’t bother to look at it). Reports from friends and residents of Victoriana tell me I’m not alone here either.Īs most of you are aware Linden recently "screwed the pooch" with my permissions in Victoriana during a recent "maintenance update" effectively disabling my ability to manage, repair and improve the estate by setting almost everything to ‘no modify’ (yes stuff I built and owned, which makes up the majority of everything in the estate). I personally have lost a considerable amount of inventory over the past twelve months alone, something nobody enjoys. DAILY grid issues with logins, transactions, inventory and lag, continually spoil everyone’s experience. Over the past twelve months I can’t help but notice the "cons" of living and working on a Linden grid far outweigh the benefits. I’ve been a SecondLife citizen since July 2006 and have seen many wonderful things come (and go) on this grid. This is to announce that The Nation of Victoriana is closing. The text of the mayor’s notecards are reproduced below. While this is a sad day for Linden Lab partisans, fans of LittleBlackDuck’s communities remain hopeful that Victoriana and Tinytoriana will be recontrsutced in OpenSim. LittleBlackDuck Lindsay – mayor of Victoriana and Tinytoriana – announced his departure from Second Life in a scathing pair of notecards distributed to residents of Victoriana’s 13 sims over the last two days.
