You have to go before the FIC

What if someone goes to the "feted inner circle" by accident, instead of the "fetid inner circle", or vice-versa?

I had assumed most membership dues to go "party favors" for the "meetings". 

(Drinks, torches, "disapproving" / "DENIED" animations, etc.)

Most people totally dont care about RL age in here. Just because you are too old to have babies in RL has zero effect on how successful you are at attracting guys in second life.

I have a very good friend, she is a senior citizen in RL and doesnt hide the fact. Her profile makes that quite clear.

She always has an endless line of guys wanting to be with her.

 

 

RL age in SL is even less important when you are NOT in SL to attract guys (or gals or whatever).

In my own experiences, those who find out my RL age tend to run away and never be seen again, as if age is some kind of contagious disease. Yet, my best friend for many years in SL was more than 20 years my junior. We had a blast, like a couple of kids. I literally watched her grow up and get married in RL. I miss her every day and all the fun we had but I know she is living her best life and I do have the memories.

Correct, they all don't.  I could be wrong about this but I thought the Like, Laugh do and the Confused, Sad don't.  Though in the past I could have sworn those last two took points away but I might be wrong about that.

They all do. Likes get the most "points" while thanks, laugh and confused are less. The other 3 are not necessarily in that order but the laugh and confused give the least.

So whats to stop someone that cares about such things from logging their alts in and liking all their posts?

None of them take points away.  Some ninny attempted to say so a few years ago when I gave her a confused reaction and she was concerned about her forum reputation.🙄    It was tested.  Sad and confused give no points while the rest give one (1) point.  None of those give more or less than the other.

My alts usually like my posts and I usually like theirs, unless we're in disagreement about something. Alycia gets some wild ideas sometimes. 🙄

If the OP would just focus on how high their "like-to-post" ratio is, then hopefully they will feel more confident. It's looking pretty positive.

Somewhat apocryphally, I've seen users who would make a thread/post, then have their alts agree with them on those same threads/posts, and of course give them "likes".  

So, yeah. It probably happens more than we think.

But they contribute to the forum game of guessing who are everyone's alts.

I had an alt here for a while years ago, but they figured me out pretty fast 😂

On that topic, isn't "publicly/openly" guessing Alts supposed to be on the Quagmire / Poop list?  (Since we get reprimanded for it?)

Pffffft. I have enough on my plate with between building and making sure tier gets paid on time. I don't need the extra job of handing out forum points. Eddy is perfectly capable of collecting them on their own.

This has been a fascinating discussion but it has wandered well off the original topic, so it's time to move on. If there's further interest in some of the thoughts here, it's probably best to start it on a clean slate.
