What am I upset about exactly? Well, I was in game with another player and we were enjoying each others company when another player surreptitiously inserted himself into our partnership making us a threesome without either of us getting a request or notification of his desire to do so, not even a PM. I even tried to remove just him from the threesome partnership and couldn't do that either. So, I put him on my ignore list and had to fight his persistent and very annoying pose requests until I could respawn in the room so I wouldn't be bothered by him any more. If that wasn't enough, I then went to report him. Only to find that I can't because complaints of this nature REQUIRE screen shots. So I have been refused reporting this "person" that I strongly suspect may be a hacker to the Devs. I have communicated with the other player that I was with that this happened to and he didn't get any screen shots either. In a situation like this to truly see what happened, screen shots aren't enough. Only a video can show what happened, and how many people have the equipment, let alone the memory, to do that ALL THE TIME. I'm being nice right now, when I probably shouldn't, and I'm withholding the name that player used. But I am livid that I can't do anything about this, not just that it happened. Gee, thank you Devs for being SO understanding. (Yes, that was extreme sarcasm.)

Here are some things I learned. Number one, always make sure all the parts are joined/merged. Some imported items I get that are made by other players are not Merged. So I always check that first. Second, always double check that I'm in Center and NOT Pivot for a multi piece object. All the premade objects in game register as single objects. Everything else made by users are not. If I accidentally forget this step and see that I'm not in Center mode, that back button is my best friend. As a matter of fact, that back button is my best friend when I make ANY mistake. the one glitch that annoys me the most is the jump glitch. The one where an element suddenly jumps to a random location. When this happens; I just find it and delete it, and or relocate it. You can grab a specific part of a multi piece item that is merged and the rotation will be centered on that specific piece. However, if you move the camera it will automatically shift to the group's center. If that happens, and you only want to shift on that specific piece, then you have to deselect that group and reselect that same piece you selected before. Finally, it's a good idea to have regular saves. I try to save after every few elements and give each save a different number as I collect save points. That way, when the game glitches out and erases all your work, you haven't lost to much of your work and can continue faster. Another good reason for this is because you can revisit an earlier save point and do something different if you like fro there. You can also do a quick save by visiting the place you are building in game. When you return to construction, everything is as you had left it and you can continue.

My question is... Was this Maintenance planned? If it was, then why didn't they put up an announcement at the top of "What's New" when the login comes up so people would know what's going on? Not everyone has Discord.

Yes, I'm the r/l Fiancee that designed "Lucid Dreams" Elysium that Pixie mentioned above. This has been an interesting journey, to say the least; as I had never done anything like this before in my life. We have shown it to a few people and the responses the both of us have gotten have been great. I've been tweeking it until I am satisfied with opening it to the public. I feel like I'm there and I'm a little nervous about our Grand Opening. I hope to see everyone there.
