Tex Nasworthy

Thanks, Echelon, Ze, and Bjor. I feel a little less overwhelmed and confused than I was before your replies. Thanks again.

So I have been gone from SL a long time, at least 5 years or more. Unless my memory is failing me (which is very possible) I think mesh bodies are new since I left. On top of remembering or relearning a lot of things I think I need to learn about mesh bodies. Any suggestions on where or how I can learn about mesh bodies? What else has dramatically changed? Do I need new clothes, a new skin, new hair, new shoes? If there was a "Welcome Back Center" for people that have been gone a log time that would be awesome. Signed Tex, a 15 year SL veteran newbie.

LOL, that I do remember!

Yep, I'm assuming I'll have a lot of catching up to do.

Thanks, KT. That's what I was looking for. Buying myself a new laptop for Christmas, maybe I'll give SL another go.

Thanks for the reply. Actually the last computer I had an SL viewer on died a while back. If I remember correctly if someone looks at my profile in world I think it will show my last log in and maybe start date.

Hello, I've been gone from SL for a long time. How can I find the last time I was logged in in world?

Will SL run on a Chromebook?

At the risk of nitpicking I'd like to point that the correct spelling is "Disc Golf".

What? No French knights in the trailer, that's my favorite part! "Now go away before I taunt you a second time."

Good one. LOL

I've been in SL for over 6 years now. Up until this point SL and myself have survived multiple "the end of SL" scenarios and predictions. Unless something dramatic happens I think this trend will continue. On a slightly related topic, I have been on Earth for over 55 years now. The Earth and myself have survived multiple "end of the world" scenarios and predictions. Assuming that I make it past Dec. 21st, I'm starting to think that I have survived "the end of the world" enough times now that I just might be immortal. While this would be encouraging, I think I had better start taking better care of myself.

This is very unusual. Obviously I'm very excited, as everyone should be, yet I can't shake this feeling of pending doom. How much time left?

See this thread............. http://community.secondlife.com/t5/General-Discussion-Forum/Major-change-to-Age-Verification/m-p/1594703#M70696

I would like to see more mens clothing. Maybe "more" is not correct, perhaps "different" mens clothing. In particular I would like to see mens clothes that don't look like something a thirteen year old boy that watches to much MTV would think is cool. I am slightly (laughs) over the age of thirteen in RL and much of the mens clothing in SL I would not ever wear in RL or in SL.

We know what you did! We have proof in the form of 27 8x10 color glossy photos with circles and arrows and a paragraph on the back explaining how each was to be used as evidence against you. /me waves at Rolig. :matte-motes-big-grin-wink:

Thanks for the replies. I stumbled across the link Echo posted and that helped me uncloud myself.

I just recently returned to SL after being gone for several months. Upon returning I download the latest official SL viewer. I've been a cloud ever since. I've tried all the old tricks I used to know; rebaking textures, clearing cache and relogging, logging into an empty sim, editing appearance. Inworld someone suggested not doing anything until my inventory loads. My inventory seems to be loading ok. If I try to edit appearance over my avatar and name I see "(editing appearance) loading........", I've waited for up to an hour but apparently it never finishes "loading". Any help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thanks, The cloud formally known as Tex

Good luck. I just came back to SL after being gone for several months. Still feeling kind of lost myself.

Where it ask for your username, just type in your old name, first and last name in the same spot.

You have to watch out for statistics! According to statistics every human being has approximately one testicle.

Not sure the proper forum for this so I'll try here. I was a Premium member for several years but I haven't been for the last 15 months or more. Today I recieved an interesting email from LL. It read, in part; "Dear Tex Nasworthy, We hope you're enjoying your Second Life. This is a reminder that your Second Life Premium Quarterly Plan will be renewed on January 17, 2009, at which time you'll be charged $22.50(USD). You don't need to do anything; renewal and billing are automatic." WTF?

I always preferred this method: 11NOV11 This worked great up until 2001. Now, once a month there is still the chance of confusion, at least until 2032.

If I only had one hour left inworld.... I would throw my brain in a hurricane let the blind have my eyes let the deaf take both of my ears If they don't mind the size I'd give my stomach to Milwaukee If they run out of beer I'd put my socks in a cedar box Just get "em" out of here Venus de Milo can have my arms Look out! I've got your nose I'd sell my heart to the junkman And give my love to Rose I'd give my feet to the footloose Careless, fancy free Give my knees to the needy I'd send my mouth way down south And kiss my ass goodbye That's what I would do.

Nice Ish!:smileyhappy:
