Sephina Frostbite Posted May 31, 2013 Share Posted May 31, 2013 I never hung out with a child avi. I like cartoons and all that. Hate twightlight as well although it isnt for children. I would deffinitely get along with you however it would be (to me) weird hanging out with a child avi not sl related to me. Not that I wouldnt just gives me creepy vibes that Im sure some get as well. But Im always up for meeting new people. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bluelacroix Posted May 31, 2013 Author Share Posted May 31, 2013 Hmmmm, i hadn't thought at all about how other ppl would feel, as an adult avi hanging out with a kid avi. When you write it out it does sound strange, and totally creepy if it was a guy adult avi. that's a really wierd thing now that you mention it. makes sense. :matte-motes-impatient: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Both have the potential to be pedos or not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sidnella Riler Posted May 31, 2013 Share Posted May 31, 2013 If you ask me, A child avi, 5 days old, sure is not new to SL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

See this blog post by Lindal Kidd: If you are a man in SL, you are almost automatically assumed (by women) to be on the make, interested in only one thing, and probably not very skilled at going about getting it.

bluelacroix Posted June 1, 2013 Author Share Posted June 1, 2013 Yes, i like hearing all the different perspectives from you all - thnx! and yes, i certainly wont change my avi (still not sure what the 'i' on that means, but oh well) because i get flak, not that any of you are giving me flak. :matte-motes-silly: as to why adult male + child seems creepier than adult female + child, yeah, its just that where i come from you hear alot more about men being the worst kind of predators then women. i know its possible with either, but when i picture it only the man seems creepy. i'm glad we don't all assume the worst in everyone. and hopefully things are getting better. so shoot me down for being an optimist. :catwink: do you all have so much lag in SL? its so hard for me to do much w/out getting like majorly frustrated. like i try to walk and my av (avi?) just keeps walking in place after getting to where i clicked. and the cameras a friggin nightmare - dont get me started.:smileymad: i have good internet. what is up?

Madeline Blackbart Posted June 1, 2013 Share Posted June 1, 2013 That kind of lag sounds like bad internet for to me. I used to get that on my school net a lot. Unless your hanging out at areas that are very crowded. Alternatively if you computer specs aren't up to snuff you may have the same issue.

Madeline Blackbart Posted June 1, 2013 Share Posted June 1, 2013 Hi Madeline Blackbart! no no, i dont think your challenging me at all, sorry to come across that way. not sure why you think that. my computer was cheap, and its a few years old now. i dont know its specs. i'll check. leessee here - in System it says G630 2.7 ghz 6gb ram windows 7. is that decent? i'm in milky kimono most of the time these days. i was in a Wonderland place that was super laggy. but cool, just way too lagalicious.

Sephina Frostbite Posted June 1, 2013 Share Posted June 1, 2013 Which veiwer are you using. That makes a difference as well with some computers. I used the one from the website because it ran okay but at times lag was bad then I switched to fire storm and its so dast and smooth I was blown away. Ill never go back.

Hiroshi Yazimoto Posted June 1, 2013 Share Posted June 1, 2013 I have to agree, Firestorm would be my pick for a viewer. Well, course that's the one I use generally. It's optimized pretty well and like Sephina mentioned it's far better than the standard viewer provided by Linden Labs. If you ever start looking for new viewers, I could also suggest Singularity has a decent one. I've never gotten lag or performance issues when I did use it back in the day.

Sephina Frostbite Posted June 1, 2013 Share Posted June 1, 2013 Does Singularity support mesh? I heard two different stories. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bronxcheer Posted June 14, 2013 Share Posted June 14, 2013 Phew this is a regular Lizard lounge this forum. All the usual serial k̶i̶l̶l̶e̶r̶s̶ lotharios bursting with sincerity. By the way ladies, most of these guys have gone through more women than you've used shampoo bottles though you probably would have got more of a tingle and a better head massage from the shampoo. Just sayin' :smileywink: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
