If you are on a public sim then you are by definition viewable on radar to anyone on that sim.....which could include anyone in SL, and that includes anyone you are 'hiding' your status from. How can you then claim your online status is 'private'.....when you are yourself displaying publicly that you are very much online ?? You have no idea who might be on that sim before you go there, and you have no idea who might TP in while you are there. If someone is 'hiding', why does it matter to you that someone that they are 'hiding' from could TP in to the same sim they are on and see them? If that is the case wouldn't they be the ones to have to deal with that when it happens and not you? People can believe what they want, if you feel it's laughable that's okay too. I still don't understand how this would affect how you choose to go about your SL.
  3. I'm not superstitius and I never seem to realize it's a Friday the 13th until it's over or is half way through (like just now, seeing this thread), so I'm not doing anything differently because of the date. I'm having a pretty good day, and am going to go buy a new phone in a few minutes which is always fun! Hmm... maybe I should wait on that until tomorrow..... oh that's right, I'm not superstitious. Happy Birthday Peter!
  4. OMG!!!! I love this thread! I was going to pick out some favorites to comment on but I can't, they're all great - awesome job guys! (and gals )

Especially, if the over-dramatic "feeling" is way out of proportion to the event. Some people like to make hyperbolic-dramatic statements, and blow things way out of proportion. Also, known as, "Making a mountain, out of a mole hill". I understand your point, I really do. If I've been around someone long enough to know that being Chicken LIttle is a way of life for them (and it doesn't take long for that to become apparent) chances are I'll be long gone by the time something truly serious does occur and I won't hear what they have to say. There are times when the thing that appears to be blown out of proportion is just the straw that's broken the camel's back for that person or people. For many folks who are really upset about how the name decision played out, I'm seeing a history of thier frustrations with LL, I don't believe the intense feelings are purely about the last names. That's just my take on it. I did say "I have to believe" when saying "I choose to believe" would be more accurate. I tend to take people at face value until I have reason to believe otherwise. Because I take my time in getting to know people, this works out fine for me.

  7. Thanks Ariel! That makes sense, and I guess it's pretty obvious I don't have kids.

Unfortunately, I only just noticed this contest, having been sick for the last few days, and seeing that it's completely screwed up from the start, I won't be participating. Knowl has some very good points, to which I would like to add a few... This should have been announced way ahead of time, that way a buzz could have been started about it... more people would have known to enter it when the time came, entrants would have been able to get their stuff together to take their pics in plenty enough time and more people would have know about it making more of them interested enough to cast their votes. It's quite simple... Announce it a few weeks ahead of the starting date. Open it up to entries on the starting date and give people a week or so to get their entries in. Close entry on the given date and open the voting. Close voting at the end of a specified time, say a few weeks. Announce the winners. It's not rocket science. Yes! This exactly! When I began looking at the entries I hadn't read the info about it yet, and didn't realize it was still going on, I figured it was over as I was seeing the votes cast already.
  9. What I don't understand is why I see so many people roleplaying kids who can't pronounce their "r"s. Where does this come from? Is that a standard or something? I'm sincerely curious. eta: I don't mean to be critical of speech impediments - I had a serious lisp when I was a kid so there's no lack of understanding what that's like. But I was the only one in my kindergarten class that had a problem with speech. Good times.
  10. Awesome! You might check to see if they can do a backlit keyboard, mine doesn't have one and I do wish I'd asked them if they'd do that. If either of you do go with xotic pc I'd love to hear how it turns out for you! (I'm not an employee or anything, I just get excited about this stuff )
  11. ooh I wanted to add, it was totally worth it to have a system built, I think it was 12 days from the time I ordered it to the time the blessed event occurred and it was deposited into my arms. They kept me appraised of every step along the way which was pretty cool too.
  12. I just woke up and am kinda bleary eyed so I haven't read every word here. Ceka it looks like you're wanting a desktop, but i wanted to mention to anyone considering having a laptop built you might want to check out xotic pc. I got my Sager laptop from them a couple of months ago and it was the most amazing experience, their customer service has been over the top. I was really impressed with the reviews I found about them and so far they've lived up to everything I'd read. Before I ordered it I called to ask some questions and got my own 'guy', who gave me his personal extension so that if I had more questions I'd go right to him. I did call back a couple of days later, and it went to voicemail, he called me within five miinutes and apologized for having been on another line. OMG! I have lifetime 24/7 tech support, I used it once after i first got my machine and "Donald" answered within three rings, after he helped me with my question, we chatted for a bit and he gave me a whole lot of other tips, in other words he wasn't in a hurry, it felt like I was talking to a tech savvy neighbor. I love my laptop!!! (actually it's considered a desktop replacement, 17.3" monitor and I'll be hooking up a larger monitor to it at some point) In sl I often get over 80 FPS with my settings on ultra. The only surprises I've had with this machine have been good ones. off to get more coffee....
  13. I think Melita's free changing rooms are great! I use them when my partner goes into building frenzy mode on our parcel and I need a little space
  14. I am having this problem and have been for awhile. I do get most IMs via email but not all, and definitely not near the number of group notices that I should be getting. In fact now that I think about it, over the last couple of weeks the number of notices I recieve via email from some groups has dropped to almost zero. My partner doesn't have the problem and since we belong to some of the same groups he can forward information to me that he knows I consider important which is helpful but isn't a solution. Thanks for the link to the JIRA, I've voted and am watching. As far as the related prblem of offline IMs not being delivered upon log in, my friend was having this issue and fortunately for him blocking an object/person seems to have resolved it.
  15. I saw no guilt trip being placed on anyone here. Of course your time is precious. If you don't want to shop inworld, then don't, no need to be defensive about it. I love shopping inworld. The selection at inworld stores is usually greater than what is offered on the marketplace and often times I find freebies in the stores as well. Some of my favorite destinations and music venues were discoveries made while shopping inworld. I want creators to be happy, I have a deep appreciation for what they do and I want to do all I can to encourage them to keep creating - without them there would be no content in SL.
