[edit] Linden Lab#Bragg v. Linden Lab

(section created on 06:02, 5 October 2007 (UTC))

Legalese isn't my speciality, so I'll (Signpostmarv) let someone else work this in:


http://blog.secondlife.com/2007/10/04/resolution-of-lawsuit/

Marty Linden

Linden Research, Inc., Philip Rosedale, and Marc Bragg have agreed to settle the “Bragg v. Linden and Rosedale” lawsuit currently pending in the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Pennsylvania. The parties agree that there were unfortunate disagreements and miscommunications regarding the conduct and behavior by both sides and are pleased to report that Mr. Bragg’s “Marc Woebegone” account, privileges and responsibilities to the Second Life community have been restored. For the benefit of the Second Life community, the Parties have mutually agreed that the terms of their resolution shall remain confidential. The Parties ask that this confidentiality be respected.

[edit] Employees

Linden Lab has like 250 employees now. That information in the article is pretty out of date. However, I don't have a source for this other than "some lindens mentioned it". hehe Gigs 06:54, 8 November 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Is the lawsuit relevant to this article?

I would submit that the answer to above is no, as it has no particular or specific relevance to describing the history and policy of Linden Lab, and rather seems to be presenting a side of a case. The entire article is thin, and needs a drastic rewrite, or complete deletion.

If you refer to the comments I left back in october, you'll see it does- especially since the case is long since over.

[edit] Undue weight

The part of the article that details the lawsuit is undue weight as the lawsuit most certainly doesn't deserve half of the article space. Yonatan talk 23:53, 20 December 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Too much emphasis

There is simply too much emphasis placed on the lawsuit within this article. I agree with Yonatan that the lawsuit doesn't deserve half the article space. It hardly seems in line with Marty Linden's quote that's cited above:

"For the benefit of the Second Life community, the Parties have mutually agreed that the terms of their resolution shall remain confidential. The Parties ask that this confidentiality be respected."

[edit] Linden Lab Cutting Services?

So is this quote from the Corporate Affairs and Culture section true? Sounds like someone had some troubles logging in and has an axe to grind. I looked at the Linden site and couldn't find an official policy of cutting services during peak loads.

Linden labs has recently started cutting services to its residents. In a recent trend of failure's. The most recent cut of services was disabling profiles and groups during peak times making it impossible for residents and business people to contact each other and complete transactions.

No, it was due to technical things.
