You can read that title in at least 2 ways. Either is valid.
(1) I made a commitment to SL last night. I finally signed up for a premium membership.
OR
(2) I should be committed to the nearest mental health facility because I signed up for a premium SL membership.
After over 24 hours of not rezzing and my inventory not loading I was prepared to contact technical support. I am too impatient to simply file a ticket. I prefer to talk with a person. The only way to do that was to upgrade my membership. So I did. I figured for $6/month I could spring for a premium membership.
Of course, as you might expect by now, I chose the wrong group when given the choice of which support group to contact. π I should know by now that if I think “a” is the correct answer, I should pick “b”. I had to take an online security test for work yesterday. The test had maybe 5 sections with a little quiz (5 or 6 questions) at the end. I got a question wrong on every single section. Always a true/false. I tend to read too much into these questions. LOL. What can I say? I like words. π Anyway, I got transferred to the correct support group. The person there attempted to fix my inventory. It looked okay at first glance but when I typed “worn” at top, it never came back to show me what I was wearing. It stayed at “searching…”. And I never rezzed. He said file a ticket and I did.
So now I wait, floating, a white cloud, waiting for resolution.
That would’ve bugged me, to be honest.. wanting to get an issue resolved and paying for it to get it done quickly, and then finding that you have to file a ticket anyways. There’s something wrong with the support system, there.
I love your blog by the way – keep writing =)
Thanks Prad! I am still totally frustrated. It’s now over 48 hours that I am a cloud. No word from support. I plan to become a squeaky wheel today. π
Hmmm… I see some irony in your comment: “I am too impatient to simply file a ticket. I prefer to talk with a person.” in regards to 2nd life. lol!
