Oops - Linden Lab does NOT extend classifieds

Filed under: , ,

Classification, but no working extension at this timeWord is trickling down the line that the automatic extension of classifieds just plain did not work. The extension was already criticized by residents who had one-shot classifieds during the affected period, and obviously are not compensated or benefit from the free extension. However the extension apparently didn't take.

Linden Lab's weekly CommMonkey, Jeska Linden, tells us that the renewal failure is now under investigation. It can only be hoped that someone figures out what went wrong. However now that we've gone past the renewal date itself, it's probably going to take a lot more work to get right. Attitudes among classified advertisement placers range from 'indifferent' to 'livid', with the median being 'bitter'.

Obviously there's issues with any ad-hoc manipulation of the database, outside the normal parameters of the services it was designed to provide.
