1. From the SL Blog:

8:00 AM PDT: The technicians have found the issue and logins are working again. The Support Portal is available again also.

Definitely wrong. Can't teleport, and when it advised me to relog, logging back in isn't working either! So much for 'it's working'.

2. Interesting, even though LL marks this problem as resolved, I still can't login 30 minutes after the status change...how odd, LOL

7:00 AM PDT:

We are aware of the login and teleport issues and are currently investigating . We’re also aware Support Portal logins aren’t working correctly.

3. At least I know it's not just me then. :/

4. At 6:30am SLT (US Pacific) this morning, with 29,925 users online, something went - well - drastically wrong with the Second Life grid. 14,195 users were cut off almost immediately - it is not yet apparent whether this was caused by simulator or connection failure. At the same time, login services ceased functioning as did the support portal - we presume that it was no coincidence that both services went down at the same time, and that the underlying authentication service went offline.

5. hehe This is like how the news where I'm from used to report on a drive-by in a bad part of the city but now they happen so often it's not considered news anymore!

6. Got an invalid_region_handoff, can't log in now. And since Twitter is down, I can't check if it's only me.
It's now 08:42am SLT, still trying to get in.
222,403 logged in looks like a suspicious number, though.

7. I don't know what's official, but at 8:30 Pacific time I've been stuck halfway thru initializing for 20 minutes... had time to go down and do the dishes.

8. Initializing is as far as I have made it in 50 minutes :-(

9. Finished the dishes, Katy?

10. Not yet, but I am thinking about dying my hair... debating if I have enough time :-P

11. Ah ok, timezones.. Had no idea which 11:30am (timezonewise) posts were referring to. Now I know posts are less than 10 minutes older than mine.

12. Go dye your hair, Katy, you will probably have time. Me, I'm going to shave off mine (usually do) and have a glass of wine.. maybe read a book...

Posted at 11:59AM on Sep 6th 2007 by Sin Trenton

13. Yep, and I still can't log in as well. I hang at initializing.

I made a comment on the login issue at Jira, http://jira.secondlife.com/browse/SVC-613 , telling them I don't believe it's resolved yet. If any of you who are experiencing the same want to log in and comment too, perhaps they'll get the hint. Let them know it isn't fixed. :)

[Update]: There may still be some residual issues in certain Regions when attempting to teleport successfully in Second Life. We are currently working to fix and resolve these issues. We thank you for your continued patience.

Another "update"

15. LMFAO. But nothing yet about not being able to login. At least they recognize that this issue isn't over yet.

And thank you all for going there and commenting! HOOO! With our forces combined, we can pwn the world! ;D

16. "Residual issues" = "It's not us, it's you."

Posted at 12:19PM on Sep 6th 2007 by Ferguson Davies

17. Ok, either it's fixed, I got lucky or it helped logging in to another region. But I'm in.

Posted at 1:02PM on Sep 6th 2007 by Sin Trenton

18. Same here. "Initializing world..." for more than a quarter of an hour up to now. At least now I do know it's not only me..

But the Linden statement ist true. Logins works again - you got stuck one stef after login. What a success!

19. i've got the error
Unable to connect.Login packet never received by login server.
