Hi- there is a curated play ist of videos posted by the official Second Life account on YouTube called “Second Life Destinations”. Not exactly what you described but maybe could be helpful.

Welcome to Second Life. It indeed does have a learning curve. It’s not all that intuitive, I agree. However youtube is an amazing resource & loads of help available to you, just go searching. Here’s a newer result, with time stamps to fast forward to topics you have questions about. I mean,I’ve turned to YouTube for cooking, pet care, fixing several different vehicles, gardening tips & more. YouTube is an amazingly underutilized resource.

& other “insults”.

If your electricity, heat & water are running during a holiday be grateful. Because somewhere in the world it’s not & that means repair workers are out on call in sub freezing temperatures risking their safety to ensure others are okay. There are hospitals with essential workers ready to attend to the injured & sick. & most gas stations are open so everyone can get to gramma’s house for Xmas dinner. What else is necessary? Second life support being unavailable for a 24-48 hour period will not cause the world to fly off its axis.

. Edit- I don’t know about display names.

Happy Holidays back to you. ☃️🎄

You honestly don’t know what they are doing. & you haven’t said they’re doing anything other than just standing there. Nothing nefarious about that. There’s way worse things occurring in SL to be worried about.

Buy a bit of mainland, control access to it- block sounds from neighbors & click the option that no one can see you by camming over. Plop down a dance ball or pole & some blinky lights & have at it.

I think you can set home at The Free Dove, tho I’m not 100% certain.

jeezaloo almost 10 years! Bought because it’s Charlie Brown’s tree 😃. https://marketplace.secondlife.com/p/Botanical-Mesh-Sad-Little-Tree/4289526

I finally have a computer after about 3 years away. It’s a 2011 Mac & can’t update the OS & am probably lucky to even get on SL. But I can’t download firestorm so I’m stuck with the official viewer & can not figure out EEP. I don’t know how much of it is my obtuseness, or the computers inability to handle EEP. I’m also frustrated because I can’t figure out how to get the shine from the sun to go away. My face is always washed out unless I turn on midnight. I’m also confused by BOM &can’t figure it out. It all seems like they fixed something that wasn’t broken in terms of ease of implementation. ….but I will eventually try to figure it out. I’m just happy to be back playing pixel barbies.

I’m glad I read all the pages so I could be certain there is not a Belli trailer in the new Plus 512 level. I was excited for a minute ☹️

One of ya’ll was supposed to ✨boop✨ their magic wand & fix it already. Slackers.

I guess it would be company scrip coins with the SL hand on it with phrases like “tip your DJ” & “try a demo” & something about Phillip linden on the obverse. Runners up; wooden nickels, mta tokens, & chocolate coins or arcade machine coins.

I think the sudden rush of new users in second life in late 2007 directly correlates to an episode of The Office when the character Dwight Schrute had been visiting SL with an avi named Dwight Shelford. No doubt thousands of viewers signed up to visit to see what it was all about & not many stayed past the first peek. The writers strike began the next week. https://www.nbc.com/the-office/video/dwights-second-life/3842661

I had created an account for my RL partner & he visited SL once & decided SL wasn’t for him. I began using that male avatar-account to double my chances in costume contests & sploders back in the day. I rarely interacted in local on the manitar avi. But one day someone slid into his IMs, letting “him” know that he could do so much better than Pixie & did he want to leave & go “chat” somewhere. I don’t remember what I replied, if anything- but I guess that’s a good testament to my ability to do absolutely nothing but log in a male alt convincingly. 🤷‍♀️ 🤨😂

Unless I skimmed past something stating the speedlight graphics had improved or that being premium plus enables you to see anything, there’s no advantage over just enabling offline ims to email for regular, non business needs. I log into speedlight in a houseboat region & next to nothing renders. And everyone is a literal stick figure. It’s great for chat, but is of no use to me personally past chat.

I remember going to stand up shows in SL back around 2010. You might check out some alternative entertainment spots like burlesque shows. Not sexy times spots- but choreographed burlesque spots might have a bead on night club acts.

Unfortunately no.

This will be my 3rd time. 1st when it originally aired, & straight thru within a week two years ago. Was really interesting watching the 2nd time with 15 years of life experience in between. Not sure if it was different because of those years of life & conversations about the show affecting how I experienced it, or if it was only because I knew what was going to happen.

In the same gossip vein there used to be “shopping cart disco” & “the whisperer”. Both of those have gone extinct.

….1981 was 41 years ago. but happy birthday home computer! 🎉

I always respond to IMs. For whatever reason tho after the hi, hrus are done I get asked “so what’s up?” But I didn’t I initiate the conversation- it’s really 🙃 having that feeling of their expecting me to entertain them. But I always I initially respond.

Can you select just the red box in the edit menu and then turn the opacity to 100 to make it disappear? *don’t try unless your motorcycle has copy permissions in case trying breaks something.
