It certainly doesn't feel that way. On the other hand, the woman who raised me did have a lot of influence over me and we did call her a certain name behind her back for years only to watch her laugh about it when I told her we used to call her the Old Battle Axe. 🤭 I'm more like the Old Dull Hatchet. 😁 2 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lindal Kidd Posted October 27, 2022 Share Posted October 27, 2022 I leaned back in my ornate, high-backed chair upon its dais and called, "Send in the next supplicant." I narrowed my eyes as a skinny peasant dressed in threadbare rags nervously entered through the great double doors and hesitantly approached. "Come on, snap it up! I haven't got all day," I rapped out. The peasant shuffled up, removed a shapeless object not entirely unlike a hat from his head and held it before him as he stood in my presence, eyes downcast. "Forgive me, Your Grace. But you must know that you have...a...a certain reputation." I felt a satisfied smile spread across my face. "Yes, I do. It serves me well." 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

alexbluesea Posted October 27, 2022 Share Posted October 27, 2022 This is completely irrelevant to the topic but I really do miss forums in general on the internet. Yeah, they're still around, but they're an endangered species, and they were such an interesting part of the 'net growing up; they've become subsumed by all the big platforms 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Right now, at this very moment, I have a jar of raisins soaking (for many months) in rum. I add them to ice cream and to cakes.

And now I'm pondering my reputation. Naturally, Joan Jett's lyrical commentary (https://youtu.be/2RK9jjOLDHc) on the general topic sprang to mind. But for me specifically, I'd love to hear your thoughts dear friends. Should I work toward a good reputation? Or a bad one? Or a bit of both? If you do something truly obnoxious here in the forums, it can effect your SL account status. For example; reveal RL information of another resident or other gossip with malicious intent. 🤐 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scylla Rhiadra Posted October 28, 2022 Share Posted October 28, 2022 @Gabriele Graves has pointed out, somewhere above, one legitimate use for reactions on posts -- in that it provides an opportunity for people who don't post to still engage with the community here. I've thought of another, as well. Images posted on the picture threads routinely receive anywhere from about 10 to 30 "likes" each. I know that there are some people who think that getting that many "likes" for a picture is sort of cheating, or unfair -- but what it does do is really create a community of support. I like that everyone, regardless of photographic skill or even avatar appearance, gets welcomed onto those threads with a flurry of congratulatory reactions. I think it makes those threads really lovely places to be. 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I already get frustrated with the folks that feel the need to quote and comment on every single picture. 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
