Is the entire TOS cast cursed? We know Patrick Stewart will live forever, but he's not TOS cast. Given that the series was made in the 60's I would say yes they are cursed with the same Curse of Mortality and Age we all will have to contend with at some point. Yes, this was the "joke" I was making, except Sir Patrick seems immune (yes, he is not TOS). 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

People have child avatars. For all kinds of personal reasons. People who can only see them as sexual are the ones with the problem. 1 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

People who can only see them as sexual are the ones with the problem. I live and work on a horror sim, and you know, it's almost become twistedly gratifying how my normal, everyday avatar is often the scariest thing on the entire sim. Visitors see me and poof instantly. XD If I sense someone will be afraid of me, I usually put on a monster avatar, just so they don't get frightened when I approach them. The irony might stagger me if I ever really stopped to think about it. I already keep my dolly avatar put away most of the time, just because so many people are phobic of dolls. Sorry, but I'm not canning my kid self, ever, cos it's who I am in SL. Edited August 1, 2022 by PheebyKatz 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If someone is "disallowed" as a kid avatar, just make yourself hideous and say you're a "Troll" (or Monster)! Although, some of us ("royal we") were definitely hideous as children. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They should be glad my avi doesn't look like the real me at that size. Never an issue of being totally accepted there though, because I looked like this when they recruited me to work for the sim. Besides, I scare people, and it's a horror sim. Win/win. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If LL decided that they didn't want anyone to talk about cats - EVER then they have the right to do that and remove any thread or post that mentioned a cat in any way. Now, we don't want that do we? I could do without cat posts, but I'd rather just ignore that thread than tell other people they can't discuss the cats they love. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If all of the cat threads ended in fights, it might be different, but yeah, cat threads. I love cats. I have only one cat post. I'm probably weird or something. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Garnet Psaltery Posted August 2, 2022 Share Posted August 2, 2022 I'm a bit peeved about my forgetfulness. I opened a large box that was stored away in a corner, and found that it was part of an unbuilt computer desk that I'd bought in 2011, while at my previous address. Now I just have to find the second box. 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
