Well just try to help others and if you can't say something nice don't hit the send button.

I am a good citizen because I TRY to do that. I am helpful if I can be. I also put time and effort into offering free shapes for people, that come with a photo and styling card. I do that even knowing that some could rip them off.  In fact I've caught a few of those... But it is worth it if it helps somebody. Especially newbies. 

To be honest though? I tried one of the new library avatars on an alt and modded it a little bit and it was really good. They did a nice job with the library avs just like the avs on the main site are looking really good too. (I did not copy or sell it please note! I just felt lazy and was curious so I made the alt with one of those. I wanted to wear something different than my own backstock. Same reason I've started to just be a dog as Clarissa, literally, when I'm not me. Bit bored with my little hobby I guess! Lol. I look forward to making mesh shapes some day!)

But I guess I offer a little variety in spite of mesh avatars and library avatars improving choices already.

I do hate it when people are dishonest because they can do the same thing I did at least for their own shop or own use which is make a shape from scratch (I always do) default shape.*(ETA I mean, default create-a-new-shape, not the library ones! I am rigorous in that.) It isn't necessary to steal.

Don't steal from other people and you are cool with me. That is a good citizen sometimes too just not doing bad.

I can agree with this.

I guess a good citizen is one that leaves others to enjoy their SL without any harassment.

I know there have been times I have attempted to clear the air with those that frustrate me and bait me. Alas it just doesn't always work.

I have even tried their tactics, but I don't have the personality to continue with it.

I guess, like everyone else (almost everyone else) I try to be friendly and helpful and approach other residents with that in mind.  If they don't warrant that respect I find out soon enough and act as required.

 

It's just hard to do sometimes, right :)

However, following those patterns does not necessarily make us good citizens.

To be a good citizen first you have to be a good person. By that I mean that you need values, principles, ethics, etc.  When joining all these aspects together you will find out that there is nothing else needed.

What is your definition of a good citizen, and how are you a good citizen in second life?
