Hey old fart, I am 51 in RL (21 in SL, like most people :-) ) and perhaps I can help you find your way again, like how to get dressed, remove the prim hair off your butt and so forth 😉 All joking aside, I can imagine how it is hard to try and catch up after 10 years of absence, so tap me on the shoulder in-world and we can have a little chat and perhaps a friendship 🙂 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jerry McNally Posted February 12, 2021 Share Posted February 12, 2021 Can I join in on this too? Late 40s, not been on SL for donkeys years and so on, looking to reconnect. Maybe we should start an Old Farts group? 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Karinastella Akina Posted February 12, 2021 Share Posted February 12, 2021 I love the idea of an Old Farts and Fartess's group idea! I'm an oldie but goodie recently returning during these hard times. Wave hello in world anytime!! 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
QuietEventide Posted February 16, 2021 Share Posted February 16, 2021 (edited) I'm 62 in rl (and 25 in SL ... sigh ...). Ah well. I made a small retro hangout in SL – "Little Moons" – during these lockdown times. It might appeal to some of the more mature SL:ers. Maybe not everyone, but some might like it. Pop by and visit if you like. It's in the "Snowshoe (87, 44, 35)" region. Tried to create a mix of:(1) my grandfather's backyard as remember it from the 60s and 70s...(2) something from a Ray Bradbury sci-fi story (with the UFO over the chimney)(3) a few mini-games from vintage fairgrounds/carnivals (fortune teller, slot car racing, human cannonball ... always open to ideas) Everything is haphazardly put together with duck tape. 😊 Little Moons is Moderate - I avoid the overly 'explicit' animations, but there are some dances and cuddles, a little pond to dive into and a number of places to just sit and chat. Swing from the moon... bring a friend and chat about old times, this, that and the other. Be nice, be what you want to be – all preferences welcome – and enjoy, we're not in Kansas anymore.

Pris Aquila Posted February 16, 2021 Share Posted February 16, 2021 Haha, I started in 2009, and only in the past year did I figure out how to convert my avatar to all mesh. But I've been off and on throughout the years. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moxie Quan Posted February 18, 2021 Share Posted February 18, 2021 (edited) Oh boy this is so me.. lol. I first started in 2007 and left in 2013 for work and illness. Came back fully last November after a 7 year absence and it was a lot to wrap my head around.. 51 in RL, 25 in SL. Feel free to IM me as well. I even have a newbie under my name on this post.. lol. Oh for shame.. 😂 Edited February 18, 2021 by Moxie Quan 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cristina Eisenhart Posted February 18, 2021 Share Posted February 18, 2021 Returning resident from 2008, been MIA since 2011. I was 42 back then so does that make me an “old fart?” Ha-ha! Just upgraded to mesh last week. Very pleased to meet you all! 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jingle Blackwood Posted February 19, 2021 Share Posted February 19, 2021 I am also returning after some years...I think 2015 was the last time I checked in. I had been on since 2008 and I have no idea why I went away. Anyway, I am self-isolated because of COVID-19, so I am back looking to talk to actual people and recapture the fun I had back then. I am remembering and learning how to walk and fly and it is all coming back to me. Old dogs, as they say. Anyway, as a 65 year old (25 in SL), I am glad to meet you young old farts. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Send me a message in world, we can connect. I actually joined SL in 2007 but my original avatar got corrupted and became a permanent pink cloud for years. Even LL couldn't fix her back then. I've since gotten her back with 0 inventory and the dreaded pink and white polkadot dress from the library. She's now the red headed step child.. literally.. LOL. We really should form a group for us returning old farts. LOL. I might just do that when I'm in world today.. LOL. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
