I DJ and have done for years, I've never asked for tips, that seems so tacky. I put a tip jar out, if anyone chooses to tip that is very kind but nobody is obliged to, I do it for love not money and any money I make goes back to other DJs and clubs, but not the ones who panhandle and constantly grift for tips.

The Abadon dress by Zibska, a classic, and such a great looking pic too!

The Secret Store has plenty of vintage clothes and some shoes. https://marketplace.secondlife.com/stores/20658?id=20658

My name was chosen by a friend's daughter, it was the name of her imaginary friend. My display surname is Sweetleaf, in honour of the Black Sabbath song and the subject matter.

I remember this too, I think it was an art installation. I'm going to delve into my memory and see what I can recall, I'm sure I visited with someone but I can't remember who. I'll get back to this thread if I get anywhere with this...

Surfing, facepalming at SL fashion events, avoiding pests, more surfing, listening to a few choice DJ sets, facepalming at pests, vomiting at the things pests say and do, considering logging out and never coming back, coming back, surfing...

I worked at a club that had a toilet, I rezzed a few things in the bowl from time to time, sadly the club has now closed, the toilet may have been a factor in this.

How much does it cost?

There are some things you can try here. Restoring camera views in debug settings might be what you need, that is a good way to get everything back to how it was. http://wiki.phoenixviewer.com/fs_camera

Check out the destination guide, look for the Indie and Alternative clubs section then go to some of those clubs and listen to the Djs. If there's one you really like then ask them, but be tactful, don't ask during their set at the club, clubowners may feel that you are poaching their DJ, so save their name and ask them at another time. http://secondlife.com/destinations/music/indiealternative No harm in trying that approach and also it's a great way to get out and about and experience some good tunes.

Yes on a friendly level, where minds meet. No on a more intimate level, not without eye contact and other sensory factors, so many liars here that prove those kind of connections are mostly delusions.

Try increasing your graphics and see if that changes anything, when I switch to low graphics my mesh body parts get grey black smudges.

Thise 'busy' AOs are annoying and sometimes grotesque, they make me nauseous but I'd miss them if they were gone too, one of the beautiful moments in Second life is the realisation that the most annoying things enrich my experience.

I've been to some great art installations which would be different and even more wonderful with Oculus Rift. The first time I tried it was as part of a development project using Opensim, the sim itself was was fairly basic, nothing interactive and was old school prim and texture builds, but with the headset on it really was something else and that feeling of being inside the 'game' was, for me, a serious epiphany. It will change the way we build and what we build, suddenly that feeling of being a voyeur to your own experience, is transformed quite radically. Perhaps a future with OR will mean less time spent on the self image and more time spent interacting with the environments. I think that dancing in a busy club would be pretty trippy too.

It looks so beautiful and bizarre.

Hi Conifer, it's always a pleasure to see you at Mythos and to have fun conversations.

At most places I go to and places I DJ at, DJs don't talk on the mic. Many Djs text chat to the crowd, they have a conversation going with lots of people, that seems to be expected standard at those places, the idea is to create a good conversational atmosphere. The music is often lovingly compiled, sometimes live mixed, always segued to flow, it's not simply compiling a playlist. I don't really like DJs who talk on the mic, but the two I do like have lovely voices and say very little, just very occasional humorous interjections.

It is a real blast, a digital epiphany, but all I can think to do is explore and see things around me. Having that 3 dimensional freedom is like being within a painting, so for me it's about exploring imaginative landscapes and getting with the surrealism of it all, because SL is surreal and absurd.

I've not seen them for a couple of days, I managed to get a photo of myself with one for posterity though.

I'm really intrigued by this, I felt like they were following me too, perhaps these Knight-Bots are programmed to record where avatars TP to and from and follow people around to expand their network. I've noticed them at the sim where the club I DJ at is based, then not long after they appeared a friend at another sim which also has a club, messaged me to tell me a Knight was appearing there, and it was the same name as the one I'd spotted. That got me thinking, perhaps someone left the club I was at and went to the other club and the Knight followed them. They've certainly branched out from simply appearing at busy shopping sims.

The Knights have returned, I'm seeing them all over the place again and now they are visible, with demon avatars, they need to make their minds up about their style, it's not what I expected, I want to see armour and some signs of chivalry.

I've always thought that the art in SL is the content creation and that an imaginative creators store is also a museum of art. My current favourite is Aisling.

It's really okay, it wasn't a very big problem, just something that perplexed me and I've had confirmation that it wasn't me that the Knights were pursuing. I've not seen any Knights for a while now, perhaps they were all massacred by the Killer Rabbit of Caerbannog?

You just made my day! Something sweet to take my mind off all the rutting stags I've encountered on the open seas of SL.
