Before I found Second Life I was dressing my pixels in spandex and a Cape after my kids got me interested City Of Heroes..... it’s fun playing video games with your teenagers.... they teach you new words when you totally PWN them :-)

A new thread for Wednesday!
What was your home in cyberspace before you found Second Life?
-
Someday, the conversation about Race in Second Life will be “was Speed better animated or in Live Action?”
Hopefully someday, only this Race(r) will be provoking conversation :-)
We gots work to do first though.

Unwise Opinions = not someone I would hang around with.
Racially Hostile *Actions* = AR
The difficult thing about dealing with intolerant people is that when oppositions gets carried to an extreme, the activist becomes the very thing they oppose.

Not to intentionally mess with the OP’s mind.....but maybe the question should leave off the “in SL” part ?
What if only one gender was predominantly Hetro and the other was just playing along?
I probably just either gave some people Performance Issues or really turned them on....

Even teleports have gotten worse for me since then . If I TP to any busy sim I crash-upon-arrival and have to wait for my session to time out to get back in.

Unfortunately, you're up against the Business Model. Nightspots are not subsidized by Linden lab, buying music to play isn't free and people don't want to pay a cover charge to go dance in SL.......the club owners have to monetize to break even.
To borrow an old saying; "Don't hate the player; hate the game" -
I'll opine that "hosts have it hard" compared to DJ's; and I both DJ and Host.
Very often, the Host is there to absorb flack so that the DJ doesn't have to, and has "club rules" to follow that require them to spam, ask for tips for the DJ and do things people mention here as being annoying. Personally, I agree with most of what was said; but many Hosts do this because their employer requires it.
To cap that off, Hosts often rake in less than DJs for tips on the theory that they don't contribute as much........
I work much harder when hosting than when I play music :-)-

Perhaps if it cost $1.00 and registering a payment-source, we would see fewer griefers.

Zairdra, I kind of have the opposite problem. I have a problem finding places that don’t go for the kind of music you seem to be looking for.....
One suggestion would be to find a DJ that plays what you like, hop in their SL Group (most DJs have one) and then use that to network with other people who like that stuff.
A few months ago, I did a fast and informal assessment of what music high-traffic clubs were playing - and that seemed to be 80’s..... this may say something about the average RL age demographic of SL.
Good luck!

In a freaky coincidence - after a long period where SL processed my payments with no issue....less than a week after posting to this thread; they started rejecting me again......
I don't think they watch this thread to look for people to borken; I just think I have uncommonly bad luck :-)
OK, now time to sort this out or find a new virtual world to play in. If I can't MAKE them take my money.......-

The question is....has the Helpdesk ever been “up”...... ?

I use PayPal w/o a credit card and have for years. The issues -I- experienced where when Linden Lab/PayPal (both blamed the other) changed policies about “offshore” banking and my US Based credit union was suddenly not acceptable.
I ended up changing banks and very nearly leaving SL completely due to the hassles and not being able to get a straight answer about what was going on or who was responsible.
Coincidentally, after I notified LL that I was canceling my 10-year long annual membership and dropping all my land as of the next month; my payments mysteriously began processing again.
That -was- probably coincidence, because their phone and email support left much to be desired...
Yet here I still am... :-)

My experiences with SL furries have been mostly positive.
The only negatives have been within the Roleplay community when someone rather militantly insists on inserting a Furry character into a historical-based, non-scifi setting.
Hey, even Furry-wrestling is cool......

Thank you for Your reply
I have always paid my land fees using lindens. But regardless the fact is I could add to My account last week and now I cannot/
I ended up having to change banks because the previous banking institution (a US Credit Union) was somehow misconstrued by LL as an "offshore banking institution.
I guess if you don't live in California, they consider everything "offshore" ? -
The Uber Premium will be as follows:
01..LL will only lock out your source of payment (for no reason) once per year instead of at staggered intervals.
02..All vanishing Inventory items will now be returned to you when you die. Death certificate required.
03..LL agrees to keep charging all Uber Premium members the same tier-prices from this point forward; even if tier prices drop in the future to attract new residents. You’re guaranteed!
04..All Uber Premium members get a free Linden Home with extra-thick Premium Walls. They don’t look any different, but when people see the Uber Premium tag; they’ll know how thick you are :-)
Kidding.......... /ducks

I secretly believe that it *really* is possible.... to actually be FRIENDS with people who have shared your pointless sexual adventures...

There's one person's old 'LL is against me' chestnut - the FIC - the Feted Inner Core. The FIC is claimed to be a number of SL users who LL grants favouritism to. It doesn't exist, of course, but the best take I saw of FIC was in this forum, where one child avatar used it as Feted Inner Child. I thought that is/was brilliant
Errr....Phil.... we’re not supposed to talk about FIC even to debunk it. Now all the others will be on your case at the next meeting.....I’ll try to distract them by showing up wearing nothing but my Mardi Gras mask, but that trick might not work a second time......
Seriously, FIC rule #1........... “nobody talks about FIC”:-) I’m probably kidding.............

Practice-breeding is much more fun than actual breeding; you get to skip the 9 months of watching your body morph and 13 years later you don’t have someone screaming; “I HATE YOU”......
...oh wait, you were talking about SL breedables?
Never mind.........

I dabbled in CoV, but I was in such a “social” SG on the Blue Side, I never ventured far until the SG was depleted by newer games - at which point I came here.
The thing I remember most fondly about CoH was the awesome players who were (and are) my friends from there.
After a certain point, grinding for levels is less important than yakking with your fellow spandex-geeks :-) I miss that community.
