Logged in just fine. Other people online, too.

Perhaps something on your end.

i mean in quicksand places

I've actually been avoiding the quicksand areas in SL for a while now.I'd go there, and there would be a few people, which was fine. Sometimes we'd interact, more often we'd all do our own thing, and that was fine by me. But something started changing, and I began encountering a higher percentage of people who were DETERMINED to interact, and to bend my actions to their fantasy. A couple even took offense when I tried to disengage, and attacked me. It took me a couple of weeks to free myself of a malscript that one guy somehow attached to me without my knowledge.

So, for now, if I see anyone I don't know and don't have a shared respectful past with at a sinking site, I just leave.
