Please pardon the dust

You might have noticed that there’s been a lot of instability and oddness going on with this blog over the last few days. I am sorry to say that it’s not over yet, I am still in the midst of a major overhaul, and I expect it to continue over the next few days. I [...]

Ugur Tunwarm is a thief

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 [...]

"File a Support Ticket"

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.   [...]

Second Life network problems – Taketori Sales Offline

In the last 15 minutes, I’ve gotten 30+ emails from my in-world vendors and various user’s swords that indicate that Second Life objects are failing to contact my web server, so I have temporarily disables sales once again. This weekend, I will be removing all in-world Wave Katana vendors in preparation for switching over to [...]

Kick bug fixed – Could it be? Really?

Seems that some regions that were updated in today’s rolling restart include Kelly Linden’s fix for the infamous "C:SI Kick Bug", which was introduced with Havok 4 and removed the push part of the C:SI weapon’s kick attacks.  This was a major annoyance for many of us, and required a dramatic change of strategy for [...]

Coming soon to a simulator near you : SVC-1648

This is promising news : Kelly Linden reported that he expects the fix to the C:SI kick bug to be deployed in the near future (or now, depending on the order of the rolling update, I guess), and has marked the Jira issue as [Resolved] and [Fixed] and deployed in the latest server-side code rollout [...]
