    But next are the hosts and hostesses. And I really wonder why I am tipping them. What is it that they are adding to my Second Life. You arrive at a venue and they may greet you if they aren't all absorbed in IM'ing with their friends. And then there is all the gesturebating they do saying how wonderful the musician or DJ is and also begging exhorting people to tip the Venue. So at the risk of upsetting some hosts or hostesses I ask why I should I tip them?

    Seriously this time ... That of course totally depends on the host(ess) .. there are hosts and hostesses that just put enough effort in making the crowd feel welcome while the DJ focuses on the music selection .. not all DJ's are as forthcoming and need a hostess to run a thread or theme throughout the show.  It needs their focus and I seen many put as much effort into the set as the DJs or artist themselves. I tip at an equal rate .. If I hear the DJ play a song I like and I tip the DJ 100 Linden and I like the hosting too,  the host(ess) receives just as much. 
     

    If I don't like the hosting or find it's quality way below or effortless , I tip half of the DJ rate.

    There have been hosts that bad , I tipped not a thing throughout the whole gig of the DJ.

    I have this gesture I use frequently :

    Wilhiam Hydraconis (ted.mcgregor) has paid you L$1,000,000.00

     

    Together with the caching sound you usually get when buying Lindens, you will them upset them somewhat more  .. but they sound sooooo happy at first until I tell them to actually check their balance I cannot stop it. 

    I can send you a copy.
