Glitch in Group Notices Still Around

It was a little more than a week ago when the Newser reported that there was a glitch in group notices that gave every one the same day and time down to the second. As of the writing of this article, the issue is still unresolved, which has making keeping track of what's going on in some larger and more active groups more difficult.

Why Linden Lab hasn't fixed this problem yet is unclear. As to how various groups are getting around the glitch, they seem to vary from more use of group instant-messages or chat programs such as Discord. Still, the glitch has complicated things when it comes to keeping tract of some events (and for the Newser, potential stories).

Hopefully the issue will be fixed soon.

Group Notices Date And Time Glitch

If there's something funny with your group notices, you're not alone. After a friend messaged me saying she couldn't find a post made the night before, taking a look I saw they were all of the same time down to the second. Other people were telling me the same. Checking an alt, the issue was on that account as well.

Taking a look at the Second Life Status Report, the Lab acknowledged something was wrong.

We are aware of an issue with Group Notice timestamps showing the wrong date on some viewers. We've identified the issue and are working on a fix. Ref: https://jira.secondlife.com/browse/BUG-228562

Taking a look at the JIRA, the person who filed was saying the issue wasn't on all server channels. As of the writing of this article, the issue is still unresolved.
