• I'm trying to create an account and it won't let me.
• Second Life tells me I can't access it from this computer.
• My account has been shut off and I have no idea why; my account page doesn't give me any clues.
• I need to report a region being offline.
• I'm an estate manager and I need to request a rollback.
• I would like to request a LindeX tier review.
