Interesting... but dated. I haven't seen 80k users online in SL since 2009, and given the degradation in performance with far fewer online, am skeptical that it could even handle that many these days, were they to show up.

What's it like over there lately? In general I mean- and in terms of learning. I wonder at times how places like the Ivory Tower and other building places are doing considering the general dumbing down of SL. I mean how it just isn't conducive to building like it was in the old days.

What's it like over there lately? In general I mean- and in terms of learning. I wonder at times how places like the Ivory Tower and other building places are doing considering the general dumbing down of SL. I mean how it just isn't conducive to building like it was in the old days. Hmm I have heard that Ivory Tower and particle lab are still there, I think Builder's Brewery also. As for me, I don't build there, I have some friends there, and some clients I still DJ for, those are the only reasons I go back. Region connection is iffy, has taken me over 5 minutes or never to connect to a full region sometimes, even when I am the only one on it. Teleports from busy locations often end in me being kicked off the grid. And if I go back to where I crashed, the region won't connect me completely - no contacts or groups will show up in the list and I won't be able to see display names or send IMs, or see if someone comes into chat range or tips me... And oh let's see, "server side appearance"... Shortly after that came fully online, I went to an event, fortunately not one where I was working. According to my viewer I looked as I should have; later someone noticed anomalies and sent me photos - to everyone else, my prim attachments were fine but underneath those I looked like Ruth with default skin. Very 'special'.

Gaaah!
I went in today- rezzed at the Cartel- OK no surprises or crashes... I went to the Jass sim and no problems there either. It was very refreshing - however there was no one else around so who knows what wd happen if I tried to go say to Franks or such. Also I did it from work where there is a kick ass internet connection. When I try from home it takes for friggin ever but that is ATT's fault not SL.

The "Pathfinding" shiney they added seemed from my perspective to make region performance take a nosedive. Some roleplaying groups were excited about it, but I haven't bothered to find much else out. Seems to be of less than no use to me.
