  1. For years it's felt like being on a ship with no captain. Everything is just ignored and LL does the bare minimum to address abuse reports, otherwise zero enforcement of anything, ever, at all. Then the allegations that it's systemic within the company! What elaborate mental gymnastics routine are we supposed to do in order to justify continuing to support this company? This is the first time I've ever truly been ashamed of being associated with Second Life, and I'm talking about Second Life for god's sake! You guys are worried about being judged on the grid lol. Imagine if a single reputable media source actually corroborates some of this. Or even just summarizes the chain of events so far! If that gets traction anyone who knows you "play secondlife" is going to have a whole new opinion on you and it starts with the letter P. ...Anyway everyone else got carried away so I just wanted to share my feelings too. I'm not sure what LL can actually do at this point that would restore my consumer confidence or whatever. The statement from Brad was almost impressive but it's not action and waiting for action is going to be brutal. Oh and it's a bummer that people are going to be judgey about your avatars in the meantime but honestly why support a place that doesn't make you feel welcome anyway? They can kick rocks it's literally their loss.
  2. And the response article that was mentioned above is at about page 46 when it reaches the citations. Granted it was a large font. Edit: For clarity I'm saying I share your curiosity on how much people have actually read. It's a lot of homework.
  3. I have to admit I'm surprised they finally made a statement. Now I'm curious what, if anything, they'll do and how long we'll be waiting again.
  4. I've noticed a complete lack of concern for sun-coverage. Residents flock to tropical regions without even a drop of sunblock. If residents want to maintain their youthful appearance and glowing skin I think they should take the necessary steps to do so. That's why my store is entirely dedicated to selling parasols and sunblock. Edit to add: Oh and sun hats, those gigantic ones.
  5. Another idea, though a pain to use, is a whitelist system. Anyone who wants to enter needs to be manually added to parcel access. This is really only 100% effective if you own an entire region, though. And of course if you need the public to access the land it's a non-starter.
  6. I was making an inappropriate joke again, but I also hate that! I feel like half the time I say something I find myself couching my statements in a desperate attempt to not be misinterpreted. It seems to only backfire yet I keep trying.
  7. I enjoy wildly speculating as much as the next person but that website is on a whole other level. I only recommend it if you like making fun of bad graphics design.
  8. I think the forums have been prioritized pretty low. It's clear that they read and moderate this and take certain things into consideration, but we're also an absolutely tiny part of the community at large so I guess it makes sense. It's still fully unmoderated on the weekends right? I thought of the community pages too. They still feature the pride one on the SL landing page but you're right they're an underutilized feature in general and I think it's an oversight that they're not featuring the Black Culture one during Black History Month. LL has always struggled with webpages, I think that's why they insisted so much on a 3d internet lol Can definitely relate to not wanting to be pandered to, feel that every pride. The educational stuff is nice though and I agree that it should be more common throughout the year.
  9. I think I've been wearing these glasses from Steinwerk for more than three years now. I wear glasses IRL and have never really minded, (except when I lose them or they break,) so it just feels normal. Edit to add: sorry for just posting my profile pic lol I just changed heads and don't have a lot of pictures yet
  10. I have no idea how to use voice in group calls. My friends have to walk me through it every time. I'm afraid I'm never going to figure this out. They really are, and that's coming from someone who loves them. Very slow cars with cruise control are my current favorite.
