Loss? We Don't Have No Stinking Loss
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

For over a month when I log on my inventory is a crap shoot ... it floats 
between 1k and 5k short of what it should be. Finally had enough and spent 
the required 4+ hours in live chat, "yes I'll clear cache" "yes I'll go 
someplace quiet" "oh no problems with my network connection- that's so good 
to know" then I'm told to take everything off and clear cache again and 
relog ... ok .. ok so I put everything I'm wearing, huds hair jewelry shirt 
shoes etc into a new folder in a "clothing emergency" folder ... god damn 
don't you know it disappeared!!!!! honest to god - huds hair jewelry all 
gone - not an effing trace..... wait, there is a trace- three live help 
people can "see" the missing items but can't do a bloody thing!!!

OK! live chat has run out of stuff they can do so it's on to a support 
ticket, go into great detail what has been covered, include the 4+ hours of 
chat (bulk of it was having me relog all over creation) wait the 48 hours 
and get a form email extolling the virtues of clearing cache and relogging 
in a quiet area.

One odd thing- a $50 usd sexgen bed unit that disappeared over a year ago 
came back- so much for that round of live help back then that "couldn't see 
it" (don't judge me)

Forget memory leaks and stability issues ... inventory volatility - isn't it 
about time for dynamic shadows?
