I flit between viewers, sampling the best all have to offer (well, not all, I haven't yet tried Exodus). But I return to Phoenix regularly, because SL has to be comfortable and fun for me, like I return to my favourite handbag in real life. For now. Until the straps fall off it. In this house there is a very up-to-date flat-screen HD TV. Well, I say, up-to-date, but it's 6 months old already so to some people is already obsolete. Again, wrong, wrong, wrong. While something is in general use, or has a purpose, or even can be mended (and I still can get parts for my 7 year old 14" portable television/video combination) it isn't obsolete. I do appreciate, though, that Phoenix is never going to become like a classic car, parked up and polished to a shine on a regular basis, and the straps will fall off it once and for all at some stage. But not today. :matte-motes-big-grin: (Thanks to the Phoenix devs for everything you do for us "Luddites".) And thanks to Linden Lab for allowing us to have something to "fight" about.

Actually, according to Linden Lab, the majority can see mesh now. This fact is stated here: http://wiki.secondlife.com/wiki/Mesh/Archive/2012-02-06 Mesh viewer usage statistics: [12:56] charlar.linden: Daily sessions are at 64% [12:57] charlar.linden: Uniques residents 71% [12:57] charlar.linden: overall duration was 67% [12:57] Tiberious Neruda: ....'Unique residents' means that the person has, at one time, used a mesh-enabled viewer? [12:58] charlar.linden: Each day. It means a person logged in at least once with that type of viewer. [unquote] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That doesn't mean it is not obsolete. Likewise I can use a CRT monitor. Many still do. But they are obsolete. Non mesh is obsolete. NO longer supported or being developed, rapidly vanishing. Any other way of looking at it is irrational and superstitious. That said, even Phoenix now supports mesh.

Kira Zobel Posted February 8, 2012 Share Posted February 8, 2012 As I state in my profile, sorry if I'm a load of blobs to you but I'm not going to downgrade my apperance for the small handfull of people who can't bother to upgrade. Except in my profile it's stated more nicely. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
