Weird time schedule-looking for friends who are around then

[Akaylee Nightingale]

Hiyas!

I've been in SL now for around 3 months and I am having a hard time meeting people who are around when I am.  I work nights during the week and am off Friday and Saturday.   I've met a few people-hooray Saturday night discussion group but most of the time when the meeting is over, everyone is off to bed.  I live in the Pacific time zone but as I said I work nights so even my days off I'm usually up all night and sleep for several hours during the day. 

I'm a night owl on my days off.  I speak English and very little Spanish.  I am an older than many here (51 not shy about that) and yes someday's I feel all of my 51 years and others I feel older or much younger than that.  I've been told I'm funny and "hip" If that can be counted as a recommendation.  I like most kinds of music, love to play games, chat, shop,fish, goof off and explore but am relatively shy until I get to know you.  

SL is fun but it gets mighty lonely doing hunts or shopping or going dancing by myself. Not looking for romance I have that in my first life .  Just friends, companionship, conversation and laughter.

Look forward to hearing from anyone-age, sex,sexual orientation, race doesn't matter. I have an open mind and a big heart to share with others.

What hours are you generally awake in SL time? I regularly visit a European-based sim, Beau Belle Village, so that would be +9 or +10 hours SL time. That might work for you if you're a night owl on Fridays and Saturdays; folks on the sim will probably be awake at the same time Saturday and Sunday mornings. We have two main hangouts -- Belle's Coffee Shop and the Leonard Cohen Club, and are getting in live musicians on Sundays. Please look us up and stop by!

You should definitly write the SL time, when you are around. Since there are people from all over the world in SL you can find someone to hang out with at every time, no matter if its night at your place

Hi again!

Thanks for responding.  I usually will log in around 4 or 5pm SL time.

That's not a weird time to people that live in Australia and Asia. You should try the slex, that's really the glue that holds SL together, and the weirder the better. Did that make you laugh?

Hi Akalee!  I am generally on at 3PM SLT to about 6.  Look me up if you wish.  We have a great group here at the spaceport.  Look up Lagrange Point and visit if you wish!  Far out!  Also look up the Hippiestock group and join that.  Big event coming in January!

 

Peace!

I'm a little surprised you're having trouble finding others inworld. 5pm SLT is 8pm on the US East Coast and, I'd have thought, approaching the daily peak time for avatar concurrency.

[Akaylee Nightingale]

It did !! But think I'll pass on the slex :matte-motes-tongue:

[Akaylee Nightingale]

Well I should I do see people, I just can't seem to find folks to "talk" to .  Have gone to clubs and feel like an outsider...probably just me *shrugs*

Hiyas!

Will definitely look you up and the groups you suggested. Thank you

As I said in an earlier reply, try visiting Beau Belle, specifically the Leonard Cohen Club and Belle's Coffee Shop, on Friday and Saturday nights. It's a Europe-based sim, so when you are on late those nights, folks in Europe will be up Saturday and Sunday mornings. I'm East Coast time, and you can also look for me in SL after 9 p.m. (6 p.m. SLT) most weekdays and throughout the day on weekends. The people in Beau Belle are very friendly and welcome visitors. I'm a newbie myself (joined SL August 10 -- about 6 weeks ago) but I like Beau Belle so much I've already rented a house there!

He said he is online around 5pm SL time.....thats 2am in Europe In the middle of the week not the best time to find easily friends.

[UncommonTruth]

Hi, I'm horrible at time conversions :smileytongue:  I cant tell you when I'm on, cause I have no idea ^^ but anyone here is welcome to IM me anytime. I'll talk to anyone, mabey more than they'd like. lol

[MayOMingzi]

Oh, no, I didn't mean to imply that the Europeans would be awake at 5 p.m. SLT! Heck, if Akalee is on at 5 p.m. Pacific/SLT, then all us East Coast folks will probably be around, checking in after work. I just was noting that since Akalee is free on Fridays and Saturdays and is a late-night person in general, staying up really, really late Friday and Saturday nights (actually, I guess that would mean staying up until the early hours Saturday and Sunday mornings) would work to catch the folks on my sim. Sorry for the confusion!

feel free to IM me if you like im up late all the time
