Be warned: we've had a lot of reports of peoples' SL avatar names already taken, and I've seen a lot of suspicious "bot like" names in the popular rooms. Do we have domain squatters here grabbing SL names for ransom? We'll see. It is just quite odd.

There have also been a lot of reports on browser crashes, especially under Firefox. It seems to happen when Lively is under heavy load, and can't get past the "Joining Room..." stage of the plug in. It makes me love Firefox's "Restore Session" feature even more!

I've heard of this too, which is why I grabbed my handle ASAP.

Someone else nabbed my SL name, both with and without a dot separating the first and second names. I'm sure it's the same griefer gang that is sore that I keep busting their chops in SL. OH well, at least there does not seem to be much latitude for sim-crashing in Lively. The worst they could do is pretend to be me and make my sockpuppet make rude remarks. Anyone who knows me, knows better.

Thanks for the heads-up, Flipper!
