By now anyone who reads this blog or knows me in-world knows this story already, but I’ve received several IMs from people who say that when they went to look, Ugur was not selling a copybot copy of the Wave Katana like I claimed.
When I told Ugur Tunwarm that I had reported him to [...]
That’s the only response you get when you call Linden Lab. I’ve already filed my support ticket, I’ve already verified that it’s "in the proper support queue" (according to the guy on the phone with me), and I’ve already complied with everything Linden Lab has asked of me.
File a Support Ticket, my ass.
Apparently, [...]
Well, hell. Apparently I’ve been banned from Second Life. I have no idea why, and the notification I received doesn’t make any sense to me yet, but there you have it.

If I have (or rather, had) vendors in your location recently that have suddenly disappeared yesterday or today, it’s not because I’m no longer interested in having them there.

It is bad enough that a very large [...]
Due to a weird combination of offline regions (including the one currently hosting my product server) and other Second Life glitches, and possibly a bug in my vendor code, I woke up this morning to discover that a dishonest SL resident was able to completely drain my $L balance.
lisa11 glom had discovered a way to [...]
As I’ve mentioned before, I’m a software developer during my day job, and I read a lot of related blogs. Like the blog for today’s subject (whose post title I blatantly stole), I will occasionally find one that fits Second Life well enough that I want to bring it to SL enthusiasts attention despite [...]
I don’t know why, after over a year of only seeing these messages once in a great while, it’s becoming much more common to wake up to a bunch of emails like this :
Mantaly Mathy has placed the C:SI script into an object named Object

Okay, one last politics-related bit of humor to fill blog space until I can get back to ‘real’ business :
Side note: I mentioned in comments on the previous post that my RL work load might be reduced and my financial situation improved, allowing me to get back to C:SI stuff, and I got some pretty [...]
