MISSING INVENTORY ITEMS
The user has experience a number of problems with missing items in the inventory in the last few days and while some copies of the items have been recovered following the earlier errors all shapes and shape related parts (shoe bases, bald heads etc) and skins as well as many texture based clothing items are unrecoverable or have gone missing a number of times.
THE ENCOUNTERED ERROR SITUATION
The situation experienced when the problem was encountered on the last occasion (similar situation was encountered on a previous recent occasion following the upgrade of the asset server and unconnected to it griefing attacks)
Error dialogs (centre of screen) for each missing item worn (5) upon login:
"Unable to save to central asset store. This is usually a temporary failure. Please customize and save the wearable again in a few minutes.
If this problem persists, please click on the 'Tools|Report Bug' pulldown menu and provide detail about your network setup."
Error dialogs (top right) for each missing item worn (5) upon login:
"Failed to find body part in database."
Corresponding Local Chat message for each missing item (5) upon login:
[7:58] Replaced missing clothing/body part with default.
For each item lost a "New ???..." eg New Shape entry is made in the "Lost And Found" folder of the inventory.
Error dialog when an attempting to wear any of the missing items:
"Failed to find part named Damselfly Bald Head in database."
the "Damselfly Bald Head" is obviously a part of the dialog which varies depending on what item is chosen.
These errors are still persisting after a 3 hours. The shape used is replaced with the default shape of the newbie avatar and the skin is replaced with that of a negro complexion never used by this avatar (see griefer comments). The missing clothing and tattooes (textures) are replaced with plain white textures at maximum extent in all dimensions of the given garment.

Showstopper
ONLY the most severe, confirmed issues which demand immediate attention from Linden Lab. For example, inability for many Residents to login. IMPORTANT: Abusing this setting will cause revocation of Issue Tracker access. If in doubt, mark "Critical" instead.
Critical
Generally, most crashes (particularly if they're easy to reproduce and affect many), content loss, significant memory leaks, greatly reduced performance, etc.
