Charli Infinity wrote: Yes! There's kind of a stigma attached to SL. I searched about Second Life before and found this which is quite true: "Excerpt that Sums Up the Community In A Nutshell Second Life promotes creativity in its users by encouraging them to build their own items using an in-game programming language, to start businesses by buying land and developing properties on it, to work collaboratively with other players to thrive. Sounds good in theory, but for some reason the reality of it usually involves a lot more virtual strip clubs, S&M parlors, and casinos. Oh - and a lot more furries." (It's from here http://www.cracked.com/article_15250_wtf21-8-strangest-communities-web.html) SL is a place that can be creative but the mage of it is that it's used for all those cyber sex related activities and that tacky overt jersey shore look does make it seem true. So then the only question is, what are you still doing here?

Charli Infinity wrote: It's just that from an outsider perspective, it looks like proof that SL is a place for real life losers who can get laid in real life so it they try to make cyber sex as realistic as possible. And now, finally, 2 days and 172 posts later we arrive at the heart of your problem. Sex is a part of RL, so why not SL? Are you afraid to express your sexuality? Are you afraid people will think you are loser because you are a part of SL? What about people who play other MMOs that have adult content. Are they losers as well? Are people who go to RL clubs losers as well because they are expressing themselves? Shall we all return to the days of missionary once a month?.. Maybe you should move to Iran, I heard SL is banned there.

Charli Infinity wrote: I guess. It is embarassing because of that. Oh I meant not desirable by the way...mistyped two are So you don't think that most of your RL friends has or has had their own predelicos? Why would you find a virtual world embarrassing? Seriously I think you should seek professional advice if it bothers you that much.

Charli Infinity wrote: if you haven't noticed, I have been ignoring because you are not contributing anything but just telling people to leave because they have views which is different from yours. After following this whole thread, you still change my words. I just said in my previous post the is creative and interesting in SL but it's burried by the tackiness yet you still accuse me of saying "EVERYONE in SL is tacky" which I never did. The words I have used is majority and most. You are making up things to draw hate towards me, you're not discussing anything, you are offended and you just want me to leave. Actually I think the best possible outcome for you would be to delete this whole thread, like I said on page 2 its a misleading one to begin with. And don't worry I have been on the receiving end on these forums before, *shrugs so have most I would imagine. Thing is where I hang out with the obvious exception of gor, I see AVs that are very well done, men in suits, ladies in full length or knee length dresses and slacks with blouses, you do get the occasional furry or what I call bubblegum girl.. Yes a few scantily clad younger girls and guys, a mix of people, hell we even have a resident penguin. Does it look like a dress rehearsal for Jersey shore? Definitely not.

HAHAHA me in rage attack mode, boy you aint seen nada yet, i'm just debating with ya

Charli Infinity wrote: . Maybe it's not all the quality of the game and that makes new members leave but the tackiness of the commuity that people don't want to be associated with it in real life. FIFY Your words kiddo ignore me all day I am not going anywhere, You have a fixation on jersey shore and you seem to know it well. You have repeatedly said all of SL is tacky to non SL users well I am calling you on that... PROVE IT.

Charli Infinity wrote: Yes I guess it the avatars do reflect their real life taste. The whole reason of this post. It's quite embarassing to admit being apart of Second Life because of this tacky image. The creative and interesting is buried under all this tack. It's not very appealing. Maybe it's not all the quality of the game and that makes new members leave but the tackiness of the commuity that people don't want to be associated with it in real life. That's their loss *shrugs so basically you are calling EVERYONE in SL tacky. 15 pages later and you still don't get it, generalizing away. God I hate bigotry In one ear and out the other..

Charli Infinity wrote: What I do see is that majority of SL does prefer this tacky look. Well we must be looking at a different SL then. Maybe we should ban all AVs with a hemline higher than the kneels, and topless guys, sounds like quite a Final Solution. So we need a Supreme Justice of Fashion, with the power to ban people who are tacky forever. Damn there goes gor :smileysad:

I dont see why anyone need reply to you anymore, fine you find SL tacky, delete your account or deal with it. SL isn't going to change anytime soon.

I inferred that, I didn't generalize, the two are different. You are derailing your own thread now, your thread really is a rant and a misleading one at that.

Lots of mesh creator groups *shrugs* A rose by any other name is but a rose

Charli Infinity wrote: I'm not generalizing You named the thread "Second Life looks...tacky" You wrote : Charli Infinity wrote: That tacky jersey shore look everywhere..Female avatars: tanned skin, tacky revealing clothes (always with cleavage), dark eye makeup and male avatars: muscular six pack, also very tan and sometimes greasy, and shirt unbuttoned too low. Then there are the tattoos and piercings that just makes it look even more tacky. Tattoos and piercing can be tasteful but the most of avatars with them just look tacky or emo. You are generalizing generalizing present participle of gen·er·al·ize (Verb) Verb Infer general principles from: "it is tempting to generalize from these conclusions". Make general or broad statements: "it is not easy to generalize about the poor".

Threads that generalize or are attention seeking irk me. You know I spend a lot off time helping out at one of the most popular sims in SL and though you do see gratuitous AVs, men with shoulders wider that A roads and Barbie girls, there are a lot of guys and girls that I know who are conservative yet stylish with their AVs. Again Generalizations aren't helpful

Totally agree with Sinful, what confuses me is looking at your groups you are a creator yourself, and an old one at that.. So then what is the point of the thread? Do you honestly think this thread is going to change anything?

Really dont get you. SL is diverse I see al kinds of AVs on a daily basis. I will say this again SL, like RL, is what you make of it.

Well I have good news for everyone who has been griefed by this person. He made the mistake of trying this on freedom continent and the owner is going to take this up with LL directly. She is one person LL cannot ignore

I have been using Candy Nails for a few months now, they have only ever failed once, I also love their nail art, they have a wide selection of different looks that are available. And no I am in no way associated with the store, I spent a few days in December looking and sampling different offerings and found those the best buy.

Its not what you have but how you use it...tell me Storm are you looking to top from the bottom????
