Amongst so many women

[PeterCanessa Oh]

<-- My little forum icon went red yesterday.  Now I have a few questions:

• Am I the only male 'helper'?
• If so, come on the rest of you chaps, don't let the side down!
• Even more importantly - where is the helper-only nudist beach?

(That's it really, it's a one-gag thread.  Feel free to pontificate on the gender imbalance in SL or the absurdity of 'ranks'.  I'll be on the beach)

[PudgyPaddy]

Congratulation to you Peter.  Although you blow it off to nothing, it is a very cool accomplishment, and not an easy one at that.  Everyone should thank you for the time and effort you put into 'helping' others in SL.

I do believe you are, Peter. First and only. And fine company you are in. Congrats.

[UncommonTruth]

Very nice, red suites you. Have fun at the beach I'm not allowed at :matte-motes-wink-tongue:

[Cinnamon Lohner]

No nude beach :smileysad:

But we have donuts on Monday and beer bash on Friday.

The rest of the week we shop for shoes! :smileyvery-happy:

Congrats Peter on your getting a red guy. I sure you advice posts will be a lot better now that you 've reached such lofty heights since you now know so much more than when you had just a pink one like me.

I'm sure the landmark to the helper only nude beach will be sent shortly. 

As to the gender imbalance in SL, if so many men weren't playing lesbian women it think it may be even lol.

That's the only prerequisite for the change to a fat red bowling pin figure from a blue or other color, to post 3,000 times?

No, there's also a ritual involved.

[Innominatus Blackheart]

Ahhhh, gotcha. I thought there was surely more to it than just simply being chatty.

Thanks for the info.

I still have a snipped off bit of neck-tie, a champagne stained satin slipper (right), three li'l paper umbrellas and a valet parking stub with lipstick prints (Maybelline Mauve-ulous, I think) from your indoctrination.

No.  Some of the lower ranks work that way but not the higher ranks.  I believe blue member ranks are as high as you can go based on number of posts, But LL can promote or demote someone too if they want to  Since the criteria they use is somewhat mysterious to me , here is what community help says about ranks.  Note that most people on here that achieve higher ranks don't care about the ranks and would hide them if they could, but can't.

How do I change in rank and permissions?

It will be a natural progression based on community participation. Here are some of the general criteria used in the formula that automatically determines ranks/roles.

1. Active participation in various areas including but not limited to: kudos, contributions that include appropriate posting, and accepted solutions
2. Accepted Solutions

   You may notice that your rank has changed on your profile or on your messages. When that happens, look for additional permissions under the My Settings and under the options menu on your posts.

Note: If any of your posts or messages are removed, or if a received Accepted Solution is revoked by the question author, your rank may revert to a previous level. This can happen if you are right on the edge of two ranks and no longer meet the criteria for the higher rank.

Oh good, please keep those sealed and secure, my renewal may be coming up.

[Madelaine McMasters]

Quickly pulls an umbrella from her root beer and another from her hair and puts them safely away.

PeterCanessa Oh, Fhp. (forum helpy person)

\o/

[Charolotte Caxton]

Ohhh great. :smileyfrustrated:

[161488303349]

jejejejejjjee (:

[Rival Destiny]

Congrats !

Nude beach?

Where do I sign up?

[Paul Hexem]

Just throwing this out there, but if you're the only male helper...

What if they just simply thought you were female and it's actually a mistake?

[Phil Deakins]

The *really* bad thing about those little icons turning red, is that it caused Charolotte's beautiful picture to disappear

[Monti Messmer]

Ah yes but now with a male at the nude beach she can make a new one, together

Before you go to the beach ask for some advice from Hugh Hefner :smileyvery-happy:

 

Congrats anyway, Monti

[Melita Magic]

I don't know what a red icon means. I hope it's nothing sexual. Workplace harassment and all that.

How do you know who here is male or female? And so why should a gender poll matter?

[Irene Muni]

Quiet everyone, I'm NOT going to seize this new opportunity to recall once again that there is a JIRA against ranks: https://jira.secondlife.com/browse/WEB-3705
