Persephone Emerald Posted July 31, 2023 Share Posted July 31, 2023 I'm not sure who the best contact Linden would be regarding community affairs and events, but if you were to collect a petition, it should probably be directed to them. Probably @Patch Linden? If there is an appropriate user group meeting, the topic could be brought up there too. What would not be helpful for your cause, would be a petition on the forums, imo. If past experience is an indicator, threads discussing LGBTQ+ topics tend to get derailed by opponents of LGBTQ+ rights and then they get locked. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If it is a petition, would that not need support from other SL Residents? How would Ezzie get that support, successfully, without using the Forums? Though, your point about LGBTQ+ topics getting derailed, is extremely valid. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ballparkdogg Posted July 31, 2023 Share Posted July 31, 2023 I think the forums is someplace that this is for. Not inworld collecting SL usernames for a petition. Half of them might be alts. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It depends on the subject I guess. If it really matters to a lot of people, the word spreads like a wildfire. And there is always the possibility it is the other way around more often. Things are discussed in world and through that it lands here. Edited July 31, 2023 by Sid Nagy Little improvements as so often. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yup, but don't expect the Linden to react. They often act like the three famous monkeys 🙉🙈🙊 on the forums.

I usually hear about group chats/discord info on the forums. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Casidy Silvercloud Posted July 31, 2023 Share Posted July 31, 2023 4 minutes ago, Rowan Amore said: Call or fax (do people still fax?)... Funny you ask that. My cousin was cleaning junk out from a house and had her kids with. The kids wanted to play with "the funny machine", aka, fax machine. As most things do, it kept them occupied for all of about five seconds. She went back the next day to get the rest all cleaned out and the damn thing scared the crap out of her when someone sent a fax to it. I don't think it was meant for that number, or why that number even still worked. I was lmao, she thought it was haunted and completely forgot her kids were playing with it the day before. I guess some people do still use them. What for, besides making a grown adult almost wet herself, who knows? Probably business crap, I imagine, lol. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
