  1. Right now I have one, the most I've had at any one time is two. Usually at least one of them will be a houseboar or a Stilt, because I love to be on the water. But after landing a really perfect Victorian, which is as close to water as a Vic can get, I think I am settled now, I have lost the desire to go looking for any more.
  2. Ah no, in that case the partner gained rights by being in the group, not by being partner.
  3. Partner? Is this true? I've never heard of that before.
  4. Thats similar to what I did once, many years ago. I logged in to my home to find a couple banging away on my roof. I have no idea why they chose the roof, when I had a perfectly serviceable adult bed underneath it. Anyway, there they were on the roof, all the moaning and ooh-aaah-ing in local chat. So I... ...turned my house phantom. They dropped straight through to the downstairs room where I was standing. The guy teleported away immediately. The girl stayed long enough to apologise and then followed him. I wish I'd thought of doing the "dirty movie director" thing.
  5. Aside from unboxing the pack again or getting a redelivery, which has already been addressed... Detaching an item does not delete it. It will remain in your inventory, it just won't be highlighted any more and if your inventory is poorly organiised, it will be hard to find. The inventory panel has a search box and you can type in there "Lelutka.eyes" (Note that they put a dot/period between the two words. Typing "Lelutka Eyes" will not find it. The search terms are not case-sensitive). As you are relatively new, I'll give you a very important piece of advice. I've been saying this to new people since 2006. KEEP YOUR INVENTORY WELL ORGANISED.
  6. Many years ago, before mesh, I used to make and sell furniture in SL. So I used to analyse pieces of RL furniture, to count how many prims it was made of. Mainly to see if it was worth trying to build in SL. But there was one time when I was walking past a construction site in RL, they'd put up a big wooden wall around it, maybe 3m high. I could hear stuff going on in there and I wanted to see what they were doing. So I stopped, turned to face the wall, and actually did that little pre-jump thing, for a brief moment fully expecting that I could fly up and look over the wall. D'oh. PS: @Seicher Rae it looks fine in dark theme.
  7. Wow - a security system that lets banned people unban themselves... how pointless. I guess it's nothing more than a personal data collection system after all.
  8. I'm on Voodoo's hit list (I believe it's because I soundly insulted the guy who made it on the forum way back when the thing was new). In all the years since then, I've only encountered one place I was actually banned from, and even that is gone now. @xxSweetMuskxx I think (though I'm not 100% certan) that the land-owner can un-ban you and add you to the access list, so it might be worth asking them if they can do that.
  9. The most likely explanation is that the items which disappeared were set to a different land group than the one you have currently got set, so they got auto-returned. Having things go to your lost and found is not 100% reliable, especially with "conglomerated" objects (when several things are returned together). I've been notified of stuff being auto-returned that never returned, no matter how many times I re-logged or used different viewers. Fortunately it was all "copy".
  10. You already responded in this theread, so you know the reason already; There is a bug in the page coding for people who pay quarterly. Solution; switch to monthly before your next quarterly payment is due, then switch to Basic before your next monthly payment is due. .
  11. You should have been here back in 2006 or so. When region updates" meant taking the whole grid offline and closing logins all at once, for many hours, sometimes days. There were many occasions when the grid went off on a Wednesday morning and no-one could log in again until Friday night. Now, it's done just a few regons at a time and they're back up in 5-10 minutes. I have seen many changes in sociability in SL and I don't think it's SL's fault. I think it's more to do with changing demographics and changing ways that people use the internet. Back in 2006 you couldn;t log in to SL and expect to run anything else at the same time. If you wanted to be in SL and chat to someone else, using local or IM chat in-world was the only way to do that. But as someone said previously, we can now sit with SL in the background while we browse multiple tabs, stream a movie, play something else on Steam. I feel like most of the chat isn't happening in SL any more because it's mostly moved off to Discord and Facebook and other social platforms. The social groups made in SL still exist, but they're using other platforms to connect and chat now.
  12. Lucybody is not compatible with mainstream appliers (Omega, Maitreya etc) and it does not have Bakes on Mesh enabled out of the box. You need to buy the BOM relay from the main store (around L$200 I think). Buy the Bom applier, wear it, click it, (turn red) take off your body alpha and you're done. Once you have BOM enabled on your body, you can wear the exact same system layers that you wear on your Classic body.
  13. But who is going to pay for needs and wants that other people have and they don't?
  14. Thats not as cost effective; 12 x 7 = 84 but once you factor a stipend into it, you get about 60 bucks back on an annual Premium. The only circumstance I can think of where paying $7 a month tier is more economical than a Premium alt would be either someone who never ever spends any money inworld, or someone with a business who makes so much bank that L$300 a week is a drop in a very large ocean. ... Oh another one - when you already have a sizeable chunk of land, you want a little bit extra but the next tier jump is more than $7 a month extra. Rather than jump your main account up to a bigger tier, get a premium alt instead and jump that one by a lesser amount.
  15. Most of the old ones have more interior space - each of the old houses (except the Elderglen ones) fills an entire 512m parcel, right up to the edges. There is no available garden space whatsoever (beyond a small patio in Meadowbrooks and Tahoes). In Belli, only Newbrooke and Sakura have houses that are so big they would fill a 512m parcel (thats why half the options are only available if you take a 1024). Plus, interior walls make a building look less spacious than it really is, so even the biggest ones still feel smaller. I'd lke to see some of the old builds moved to be adjacent to Bellisseria, like they did with the Galaxy. The dragon could go on the Fantasseria coast somewhere.
  16. Nah. The only benefit that is useful to me is 2048m of land; I can get the same by making an alt premium for $99 instead of upgrading mine for $149. They should have priced it at just below the cost of 2 regular Premiums, i;e $195 or 199, I would have accepted it for that.
  17. There's another one called Northern Ops, by North Crannock, which is gaining popularity. The initial game kit isn't cheap (L$500) but once you have it, bait is free and there's never anything else to pay. If you join the in-world group there are numerous contests going on throughout the week. I go to them quite regularly, it's great fun. Also with N-Ops you can fish in any Linden water, it doesn't require a server setting up. There's no gifts and no fish you can keep but there is a website where you can keep track of your stats.
  18. I just went to check and it's gone now.
  19. Thanks everyone. Object "littering" seems to be the best.
  20. I have spotted a horrible mostrosity of a fullbright glowing nightclub encompassing an entire Houseboat parcel. However, none of the AR categories seem to fit. Why isn't there a category for Linden Home covenant breaches and until there is, what category should be used instead?
  21. I still use multiple copies of my bodies even now I'm using BOM for all of them. Because the furry ones need specific alpha cuts for the legs, and also they always have black fingernails, so it saves me messing with the alpha hud and nail appliers. I do the same as you and keep nude outfits, so when a body gets updated, I have only a couple of outfits to correct. Firestorm's Auto-Replace Links feature is incredibly useful for this.
  22. It's probably a custom script. Gadgets like that are often not sold in stores or on the MP but passed around full-perm (or at least copy + transfer). Best thing is to ask someone who has it, if is transferable. If it isn't, they should be able to point you to where they got it.
  23. Relogging will undeform you too but you don;t need to rlog, just click Undeform. The way to fix it is to make a copy of your body. Go into your inventory and find the body in the listing, right click it and select copy. Make a sub-folder and call it "Furry body" and paste it in there. Wear the new copy only when you are furry, and the original only when you are human. You will never need to touch the applier again. Appliers are NOTHING to do with the distortion I illustrated above. Appliers do only the skin. The distortion is the skeleton.
