SL Viewer 1.14.0: Global disaster
March 27, 2007 8:54 pm
As September, 11th of 2001 is better know as 09/11, I know declare March, 27th of 2007 to be 1.14.0.
Why? Tons of homeless Avies, or Avies that aren’t able to get in touch with their close relatives to check if they are in good health. Emergency services weren’t prepared, were uninformed and arrived on scene late and the whole thing could have been avoided if LL’s intelligence services had done a more thorough investigation.
Some avies lost all of their belongings and the SecondLife economy goes haywire as shop keepers can’t keep up with replacement and refund requests. Lot’s of male residents involved in 1.14.0 suffer from the Ruthing-syndrom, probably caused by post-traumatic stress after the install.
Residents are redrawing their deposited l$ en masse and some are even considering committing suicide as they just can’t handle the constant lag and buggyness anymore.
Shortly put: what the hell were they thinking?!! SecondLife’s a bitch sometimes for sure.
Kuddo’s for the lady at LiveHelp though. Kitty - her last name now slips my mind - was very patient with a ranting Vint and did the best she could in a very friendly and helpfull way. She even suggested installing the 1.14.0-viewer-of-death herself, but I said I could not ask that from her.

Fighting for truth, justice, and the avatar way!
My Theory:
There is a Griefer Mole within Linden Labs!
Which number to we call/sms to to vote him out of the series? :D
Ahahahaha poor Vint.. personnally, I only speak for myself, 1.14.0 is the best thing that ever happended to me in the last 2 weeks of painful gameplay. My FPS is up +10, I hardly experience any lag anymore, the stability is much much better, a lot of very annoying bugs have been fixed, my guns are now working again.
Finally apart the poor ATI users, this build is a good step forward. I just wish the Lindens would be freezing the features (like this stupid voice thing) and bang on the bugs until it’s rock solid.
Codie
Well, I’m just a bit scared about them saying ‘they will tolerate people using the 13 client for now’. How long is ‘for now’ and will they bother to fix it, or just expect from us that we invest in new graphic cards. :(
Today I noticed some SL performance improvement in the new 1.14.0. My laptop has been purring along with it.
Hmmm. My desktop told the laptop 1.14 sucks. And now the laptop refuses to update! ;)
