I'm thinking of starting an M-rated club. Follow my rules or you get the hatchet. And that isn't chicken blood on my cleaver. (Chucky is the most popular Halloween costume and franchise in history, but is a liability to wear in SL.) And that commode behind him better be G-rated! https://gyazo.com/a2199c783fff0a5e1af040ce966249de

Thank You Nalates. I pointed out the same thing earlier, with an example - but the oblivious opinion peeps here keep changing the question, and denying the technical facts. I am easy to identify in SL, as are my alts. We all use the same computer, and have the same IP address. (OMG how can that be? ) My web IP changes about every 5 months - last time my IP changed was Jan. 3, 2024. But I am on a desktop computer in my home, with no WAN wireless internet - fiber cable from the CO rack 8 blocks away to the fiber-to-CAT5 converter box sitting 3 feet from me, that connects to my local LAN router. The only way I can change my WAN IP would be to unplug the converter box, and disable the battery backup, and wait about 20 mins. In some cases, I still get back the same IP after a long wait. So here's another fact - everyone has a different internet connection - we don't all use mobile, or connect to a building-wide wireless connection. If four suspicious characters enter the same SL club at the same time, and all tune into the same music stream, and all have the exact same IP#, they are probably related. If they are BDSM with neck chains, it could be a weird RL family, or just one guy with a fantasy and 3 alts. But they are unlikely to be Rowan's random 10 neighbors.

True about what is considered income. It is a 1099K that Tilia will send to the IRS, and for TY 2024 the minimum is $5000 or more income for the year. The $600/yr was delayed another year, and may be moved to a more reasonable minimum this year, if Congress ever gets off their azz. This was all covered in a prior thread a few months ago.

It is possible in SL, but not reliable and only in special cases. Checking the IP of someone listening to your stream, for example, when you notice that avatar enters your inworld proximity at the same time the new IP appears as a stream listener. This is ancient knowledge, but no one here wants to mention it. If you need to hide your IP, then never listen to music at a club. Use a VPN if you like, then they will only know your latest VPN. But most have nothing to hide, and so use their normal IP assigned by locality. Many IP companies do not change your IP just because you relog OR restart your router. My IP can stay the same for months, even though it is dynamic. I can log off for days, and my IP stays the same. It changes when they change the rack my cable is plugged in to, or do maintenance. I monitor this, so it's a fact for me. And I do not have a static IP. So it all depends, but to say it is impossible is clearly wrong.

I see about 5% overall increase in my available LI after the change. Not close to 15%, since I have many 1 or 2 prim objects, and some have no reason to be mesh. I have a linked home structure (no rez box needed) that was 41 LI before, and 38 LI after. It is called an "all-mesh" home, but has quite a few non mesh prims as part of the links. I'm curious to see if my Alex Balder landscaping, which is all mesh, is closer to the 15% reduced LI claimed. I did gain about 100 LI, and suspect that is where most of the savings came from.

Some businesses have Fly unchecked in About Land Options, and have an orb that detects if you are flying. If you land flying, they can eject or ban you. I have had this happen at a store, a one room store on a platform even, and I was perma-banned for flying after teleporting. I did write the owner and tell him he was an idiot, and I would never recommend his products to anyone.

I wonder if some posting here have ever been human avatars, or set up house in SL? Thirteen years ago I bought a one-seater outhouse with an auto closing door, that had adult couple animations included. Don't ask why I paid for this, maybe buying lindens was cheaper back then when they didn't have fees to buy. (see, on topic) Have you ever tried to cam into a one seater outhouse with the door closed? It's hard work.

I don't know about that. Her proposal was to make $1 = 100 L, instead of $1 = 250 L. Will that break the SL economy? The point is 100 L to some residents seems like $100, because they are really bad at math. So they tip 100 L and think they are being generous. I would love a business where I could design 1 product, and sell 1.000.000 copies, at no extra cost to me. There should a law against that.

Of course not for 98% of the SL working residents. But it can be a source of supplemental income, even if it is only 5% of your RL income. And in some cases that extra 5% can make a big difference. I realize most here cannot understand that.

Pancake is talking about raising the Cover Charge from 40 cents to 80 cents. Most club goers tip 100 L if they tip at all, so that is their cover charge. The only thing you will get residents to pay for is their avatar, and exclusive clothes. A club that charges 100 L as a cover charge will probably lose half their patrons. SL residents and club goers will spend on themselves, before supporting entertainers.

No he uses the SL Viewer. He had a problem with FS two years ago, so stopped using it. Lack of useful info from the OP makes his post just a rant.

My first FS login said my castle was bobbing up and down after the new Physics install. I was worried my candles would fall off the shelves and burn my castle down. Then I remembered I didn't have a castle on my land anymore. Whew that was close! I guess LL did nothing at all this year for April Fools Day. And that was the joke.

That's because all the rules and restrictions of the other threads do not always apply here. But with no moderation here we would be at 1200 pages by now. That isn't a Peeve, btw. I can't have a real peeve here - it would violate something.

I would love to make $17 USD/hr, before any fees and tax! What a terrible example - just gives the cheapskates more reason to never tip. Typical DJ in a typical club might get 20 real avatars (not bots) in the club during a set, and 1/2 of them tip 100 L, once, for a 2 hr set. That is 500L/hr, or about $1.80/hr after fees. It's one of the worst paying jobs in SL for the effort and skills of a good DJ.

Are these front page comments also appearing on the SL Viewer?

Apparently being promoted to a Sr Vice President in SL, does not gives you time to spend in world or participate in Events they created.

My Alt has been wearing a 2009 designed flexi hair since 2011. I don't see a problem standing in front of windows. It still looks natural to me, and moves when my body or head moves. It took about 300 strands to build this. I attached the Inspect Object window for it, showing only 1 page out of over 5 pages of strands. It adds about 30K in complexity, but no lag I can detect.

Don't think I do anything different - but since I never use the Outfits window to dress, or read the effing instructions when I joined, I just use basic Copy and Paste As Link into my Outfits folder on FireStorm. So, I make a new outfits subfolder in the Outfits folder, and rename it so I know what it is. This new subfolder is empty. I add * at the beginning of the name to force it near the top so it's easy to find. SInce I already have subfolders for Costumes, Holidays etc, i might put it in that subfolder category as a new outfit, unless it is a normal outfit (eg human) Dress myself with the avatar and all attachments included, and go to Worn Items tab. Expand Worn Items so everything worn shows. Highlight everything with the mouse at once and Copy. Go to the newly named subfolder in Outfits, and Paste As Link. That is my new outfit. Just Replace Current Outfit to remove old outfit and wear the new one. Done. I'm sure there are easier ways, but when I started SL, I saw no reason to follow some other method. Direct copy and paste as link made sense. I have 5303 objects and 258 folders in Outfits. And 2901 objects in 138 folders for Holiday, Costumes and Animals. That adds up to 396 Outfits I can quick change into. And these are all Male outfits. I always had more than one outfit. Some of them go back 13 years though, for retro night.

This is so easy. NSL - Naked SL Clothing Not Permitted, including Shoes! Hair allowed - 4 wigs/avatar w/ color HUDS. No limit for Avatar attachments

Eliminate the color table. Only RGB allowed is 000 and 111. Positive side effects - solves the EEP problem with PBR, and no more overcharging for tinted dresses by greedy creators.

I know lots of men who feel the same way. One naked and one with clothes - what more do you need?

There were no textures from this tree designer. I rez these trees about every 2 years, so no way am I going to rezz all 1000 of my trees to add a snapshot for the new preview option. I really dislike the preview option - all it does is delay the opening of my inventory window. If there is a texture in the folder, I can look at it with one click. Most of my landscape objects have no textures included. The preview would not help me find a designer personal code name either. Only one of the 3 trees I needed has Maple in the name. My answer was to use subfolders like I been doing since 1978. I find many items are mis-spelled by the designers too. Some because they are not English speaking creators, and use the spelling for Austria or whatever. And some just can't spell even if they speak English.

What size is your inventory? FS can time out if it takes too long to load. But there is something in the network or servers that can increase loading times more than usual for large or flat inventories. I have an alt with a 240K inventory that needs serious unflattening. It took me 5 tries to log it in last night. It would get stuck about 1/2 way thru for 10 mins, until it timed out. Only cure was to keep trying until it decided to finish. Happens erratically, with this account. I am tempted to just delete about 200K of it, since I never use it anyway.

I was replacing my winter trees with spring trees last night. The trees I was looking for were named: "MK-BT Bo Maple M1 v1-1a tf-3a derived 1 DBsp1" and "MK Ultimate Sc M7 v2-0 tf-4 DBsp1" So I must remember to search for DBsp1 when looking for these trees using search. As it is, the trees were in my Landscaping/Trees/Spring/designer name subfolder, although I still had to rezz several trees to find the right ones. Using SL search would be useless, with my 100K inventory of landscaping objects.

If you set your hover height to -2.00, you hide under the floor/ground. This fools newbies usually - they think you are invisible.
