By Xavier Mohr, CEO SLReports.net VSTEX.net Communications Director Samantha Goldflake announced today that the virtual securities exchange would be launching a new web-based support system. "The VSTEX virtual stock exchange has experienced a steady growth over the last month and the trend is still strong," said Goldflake in an announcement at the exchange website. "So far our staff handled support requests and questions even off their assigned working schedule, but at the current level they're no longer able to cater to everyone in a timely and organized manner." Goldflake reports that users logging into the site will now find a new menu item to the left labeled "VSTEX Support," an option leading to a section where individuals will be able to open and check support tickets concerning exchange-related matters. In-world support from VSTEX is now discontinued. Stay tuned to SLReports.net for more information.

In a post at the Ancapistan Capital Exchange website last night, exchange chairman IntLibber Brautigan clarified the most recent outage of ancapex.net.
"There was a brief service outage at our datacenter for a number of their customers," explained Brautigan. "Service is back to normal."
Brautigan also referenced what he claims was a DDoS, or Distributed Denial of Service, attack against the AnCapEx web server.

By Xavier Mohr, CEO SLReports.net A SLReports.net reader was kind enough to pass me a notecard this morning that includes a very interesting conversation that occurred between VSTEX.net Communications Director Samantha Goldflake and Ancapistan Capital Exchange's Chairman IntLibber Brautigan. Among several allegations were Brautigan's claim that Goldflake had been telling customers that the Ancapistan Capital Exchange trading software was stolen. In the other corner, Goldflake was still persisting that Brautigan alter AnCapEx's prospectus, which contains heated references to other Second Life stock exchanges. At one point, Brautigan actually called for Goldflake to be fired, claiming that she was a "known liar" and represented her exchange poorly. Take a look: [14:56] IntLibber Brautigan: I'd like to announce that ACE is back online and trading, we will have ATMs out shortly. [14:57] Samantha Goldflake: Then maybe you can correct the ACE company prospectus [14:57] IntLibber Brautigan: What correction? [14:58] IntLibber Brautigan: BTW, Samantha, I expect you to retract your claim that we stole our software [14:58] IntLibber Brautigan: and I expect an apology for your slander [14:58] Samantha Goldflake: Brautigan, I have no clue about your software

By Xavier Mohr, CEO SLReports.net Zaldar Rhode, CEO of Zhenya Zoning Real Estate (CapEx: ZEN) announced today that the company had purchased a second region from Kejo Merlin to add to their current assets. This move, long-awaited in Second Life financial circles, will double the land holdings of Zhenya. "This new sim will double our current assets and not to mention double our monthly income," according to Rhode. "The best part of this new sim is that it is already partly inhabited so that means that it was less of a risk and less of a price. Now that is pretty convenient." According to Rhode's post at the SL Capital Exchage, the purchase was made for approximately L$350,000 and the island will be called Tuscarora. It is unclear whether or not ZEN was held responsible for any real-life island transfer or renaming fees by Linden Lab. Stay tuned to SLReports.net for more information.

By Xavier Mohr, CEO SLReports.net Samantha Goldflake, Communications and Public Relations Director for VSTEX.net , an Italian-owned Second Life stock exchange, posted an interesting note today at the exchange website accusing competitor Ancapistan Capital Exchange of unsolicited in-world advertising at the VSTEX headquarters. "It has been brought to our attention that someone has been distributing a competitor stock exchange promotional notecards in our HQ in-world," with the letters A, C, and E intentionally bolded in the original message. "ACE" is an acronym which has come into popular use for IntLibber Brautigan's upstart securities exchange.
