Pardon me, at the moment, due to this persistent thing called "work", I'm unable to help with account-specific cases — our real Support is your best bet. I DO NOT read IMs, notecards, or forum PMs.

Useful stuff you should know ahead of time:

Who's Torley?

^ Click to find out!

Torley CAN help you with

You've totally got the right avatar! I'm flooded with correspondence, so to set expectations, this stuff gets top priority:

  • Your ideas for knowledge-sharing, including video tutorials. Also, how to make this wiki and Tips & Tricks awesomer.
  • I love hearing stories of how you live Second Life and your creativity. This includes builds, inventions, and machinima. I visit awesome places often, and you should also submit to the Destination Guide.
  • While I'm unable to provide extensive personal guides, quick Q&A about my vidtuts and help docs is warmly welcomed. I treasure all awesomeness I receive, and there is no charge for awesomeness. ;)
  • Free to request my Linden Bear.

Torley CAN'T help with

This stuff in all likelihood doesn't get read or replied to, so don't ask me about:

  • "I can't login!" and other system issues. See Second Life Grid Status Reports.
  • If you want personal Second Life support (including the Marketplace, use the Support Portal. I don't escalate tickets, either.
  • Legal/policy, abuse, bugs, or other issues not about my direct work.
  • Scurrilous rumors.
  • Requests to save your land, give you L$, or promotion. I gladly visit most SLurls I receive, but don't beg for handouts!
  • "Forward this to the right Linden..." — please look up the right place, such as the User Groups page, and contact them directly.
  • I'm not a forum moderator either, please click Options > Report Inappropriate Content on the upper-right of a forum post to alert the mods.
  • For legal and practical reasons, I don't privately accept ideas about improving Second Life outside of my duties. All such correspondence is deleted. File a public New Feature request at the Bug Tracker instead.

More good-to-knows

Pardon if I decline yours, it's certainly not because I don't want to be friendly. :) (Earlier in my SL, I openly accepted friendships but that led to me being distracted by being repeatedly IMed and TPed to parties.
