At approximately 0915 SLT, all of a sudden half of Aeon disappeared. Not the land... no, the land remained. But lots of stuff got returned. Apparently the sim's autoreturn, which had been off, was turned on. Quite some items vanished... including the Library and the Medical building.
No more Library building...
Just a bunch of consoles...
And no more Medical!
The view from the security building
Panic ensued. For the first time in a long while, Aeon was put on black alert. Everyone needed to evacuate, so we all did. At the Galaxy side of the Aeon/Galaxy border, we gathered... shocked about what had happened.
The view from Galaxy...
We gathered at the Galaxy/Aeon border...
Not much later, Aeon disappeared. Would we ever see it again?
Goodbye Aeon...
It just looks unnatural...
Luckily, Aeon reappeared again soon after that. The whole thing had lasted less than an hour. And good news: not much from the Library was missing... yet other buildings and divisions were not so fortunate. Well, at least we learned a valuable lesson lesson: to put everything on the Galaxy Landholding group...
It's back! Hooray! Aeon, we missed you!
See, there's a good side to everything! Still, let's hope we don't have to see this again all that often! A big thank you to those who helped out!
Great report Rob
ReplyDeleteYep, great report of a classic event that will go down in GFC folklore, the day Aeon vanished...
ReplyDeleteAwesome!!!!!
ReplyDeleteShame I missed it though!
Did anyone notice how the lag vanished with the stuff, and then the stuff came back with the lag?
ReplyDeleteDid you notice how the balloon survived the mayhem. The advertising message was too powerful to be derezzed :P
