> "The avatar that is copied must be in region and fully baked.

*sigh* I wasn't privy to the communication which caused the upset here, but that one line is worthy of comment.  One consistent, long-standing 'feature' of these SL-related virtual worlds is that you cannot be sure of how you appear to others; you cannot be sure your avatar is fully baked.  If code is generating something incorrectly based on something the user cannot easily or reasonably verify, isn't that a bug?  I understand it may be impractical to fix the bug, and I understand some users may be all too pushy, (it's because they're frustrated,) but the course of wisdom is very much *not* for the devs to respond in a way that makes them seem right all along.  A small apology for the difficulty would be appropriate, perhaps along with an honest excuse that the bug is hard to fix.  (Often true!)  It would also be sensible to place a warning into documentation for the code, although that is harder with all the independently-produced tutorials.  Perhaps, if it's a console command, it could respond with a brief warning to clear your cache to check the results.
