Same Suck - Different Day
Malignant Narcissist @ February 26, 2008 # 4 Comments
You may have noticed that the updates on this site have slowed down, a bit. I can guarantee that it’s not for the lack of Second Life sucking, at all. I have, myself, taken a short break from posting about all things that suck about SL, and have even uninstalled the viewer from my computer.
This […]

LL Wants To Violate Your Privacy
Malignant Narcissist @ February 13, 2008 # 2 Comments
Imagine going to the Second Life web site and creating a new account. During the signup process, you’re asked if you’d like to find friends from RL that are in SL. Sounds a little harmless if you just ask that question, so suppose that you decide to take advantage of the new feature and you’re […]

Censored By Second Life?
Malignant Narcissist @ February 12, 2008 # No Comment Yet
I wouldn’t normally post something like this, but since this is the first time ever that it’s happened, I wanted to make a point of mentioning it. Today is the first time that a trackback from this site has been deleted from the official Second Life blog. I sent a trackback from the previous post, […]

Second Life Beta Testers
Malignant Narcissist @ February 12, 2008 # No Comment Yet
If anybody needs just one reason to quit paying to “play” Second Life, this is the reason. Not only does the viewer and the grid that it runs on act like beta software, but the company that gets all of the money keeps asking us to help them with their beta crap.
“If you have time, […]

Slightly Less Suck
Malignant Narcissist @ February 8, 2008 # No Comment Yet
Throughout the problems of the past couple weeks, I do have to honestly say that the updates that the Linden’s are giving on their blog have actually been pretty good. They seem to be responding more in the comments, and answering questions that people are throwing at them… at least a couple of them, anyway.
Even […]

SL’s Lone Defender
Malignant Narcissist @ February 5, 2008 # No Comment Yet
It looks like Linden Lab has another defender, besides Armanna. Recently, Bob (or Bibbo, as he might better be known), while trying to defend Mono, has been trying to convince himself that this site is a pointless waste of time. He seems to think that I have no clue about the subject of SL Sucking, […]

Great Responses?
Malignant Narcissist @ February 4, 2008 # 7 Comments
It looks like the Lindens are even causing an inconvenience for themselves, as the recent “redeploy” took longer than expected. It’s about time, don’t you think? The Lindens have an event scheduled and are unable to host the event because of problems on the grid… something that their paying customers experience all too often. The […]

Hell Night in SL
Malignant Narcissist @ February 4, 2008 # One Comment
It’s actually been “Hell Week” in SL, but…
What is this? Seriously? What is the point? I suppose when it sucks that bad, you have to find something to do, but what exactly are they doing? Is it supposed to be some type of music video or just an example of how to beat a furry […]

Can You Help Me Figure This Out?
Malignant Narcissist @ February 3, 2008 # 2 Comments
While looking through the Economic Statistics for Second Life, this morning, I noticed something that seemed a little odd. In the last graph, titled “L$ Sources and Sinks”, the is a description for “Stipends”. The figure for the sources (or the amount paid to residents by LL for January 2008 was L$165,319,050. Breaking this number […]

Confusion - Second Life and You
Malignant Narcissist @ February 2, 2008 # No Comment Yet
About 20 hours after residents first reported that they had downloaded the new 1.19.0.0 Release Candidate viewer, and were told that they needed to revert back to version 1.18.6.4, Chiyo Linden finally got around to posting something on the official blog. TWENTY HOURS!!
UPDATED: Sometime in the 3 hours after I posted this, Frontier Linden updated […]

LL Fucks Up - Armanna Loves Them
Malignant Narcissist @ February 2, 2008 # No Comment Yet
What’s happened this week has a lot more people realizing that Linden Lab has no concern for the majority of their customers. Things like storing persistent data in the description field and using “pipe” character have been relatively commonplace, and the latest “upgrade” makes any object that depends on that unusable. The persistent data in […]
