  1. You can use the private changing rooms at the Welcome HUB http://maps.secondlife.com/secondlife/WelcomeHub/81/145/25 and the Welcome HUB sandbox at http://maps.secondlife.com/secondlife/WelcomeHubSandbox/74/78/25
  2. I'm locking this thread because the question has been answered. I've left it up because both the question and replies apply equally to Second Life (and it became clear that the question was about Open Sim only at the end) but please note that posts about other grids are off topic for these forums.
  3. Using this thread to try to re-open a discussion that led to another thread being removed would be an absolutely terrible idea. Please remember that the Forum Participation Guidelines prohibit
  4. I'm locking this thread because it's pretty obvious that the resident was the victim of a scam by another resident, and I think everything that could usefully be said on the matter has now been said. I can only add the advice provided in Linden Lab Official:Scams:
  5. Please remember that, if you feel you really must draw attention to what you see is the failings in other posters' character or personality as revealed by their comments, even indirectly, you should do it in personal messages or in-world IMs, not in public posts in the forums.
  6. It does start first thing on the morning of Thursday October 12. Because of a snafu, the message the buckets say when they're touched didn't get updated when we finalized the start time. That's now fixed, and all buckets rezzed from now on will say the correct message, "It’s The Great Trick or Treat Event, Bellisseria!" does not start until October 12 2023. If you have already rezzed a bucket, then delete it and rez a new one. Otherwise, the bucket will correct the message itself over the next few days. Sorry for the confusion.
  7. The Linden Lab Official:Forum Participation Guidelines say I have no idea what will happen if "the thread becomes a burden to the server due to its enormous size," or when , or even if, that is likely to be an issue. What I do know, and what Dyna and I are both doing our best to make sure doesn't happen, is that if grandfathered threads, like this one, get closed down for policy violations, it won't be possible to reopen them That's what worries me. What happens if the thread becomes so large it gives the server indigestion is another question, and one to which we haven't been given an answer, but I'd like to think that the thread will survive long enough for that to become a real rather than an hypothetical question.
  8. Please, let's stick to SL with this discussion and not get sidetracked into discussions of incels or trans-non binary in First Life.
  9. As Sid says, discussion of political and religious topics is off-topic for this forum. Turning this thread into a vehicle for them is likely to get the whole thread closed. Please bear this in mind. If this thread does get locked, it won't be possible to start a new one.
  10. Why not send the LM or s slurl to the OP in-world?
  11. The resident who started this thread says she's looking for Jewish Faith Creators in SL. Please restrict the discussion to ways she may find them. Discussions of her motives, or of religion in general, are not on topic.
  12. You quoted a post that I had to hide, so I removed yours because, had I left it there on its own, with your quote of the hidden post redacted, it wouldn't have made a great deal of sense.
  13. Since everyone seems to agree the subject has been adequately discussed -- done to death, even -- I'm bowing to popular demand and closing the thread.
  14. Dyna has had to go to attend to First Life for a bit and has left me minding the store. To reiterate what she said, this thread really is teetering on the brink. If people really must pursue arguments about whether particular terms are justified or not, they should do it in personal messages or IMs in world or somewhere other than this forum.
  15. Gentle reminder not to let the thread drift off into a discussion of First Life lotteries, contests and so on.
  16. I think it would be preferable to confine this discussion to SL and Linden Lab rather than allowing it to become a broader discussion of San Francisco in particular or US cities in general.
  17. We're not looking for reasons to close the thread but when people report posts, we have to act on them, and after the proportion of noise to signal gets consistently too high (or we get tired of cleaning things up) threads get locked.
  18. Enjoyable though food derails certainly are, I think it's a bit too soon since the previous one to start another, unless it's a way of indicating that people are bored with the notional subject of the thread and want it closing.
  19. This thread went completely off topic long ago, and now it's turned into sniping at individual posters, I'm locking it. Please feel free to discuss differences between viewers in a new thread in this forum or in the SL Viewer subforum, but let's try to keep the next one on topic, enjoyable though the food fight has been.
  20. I think it's time to put the vampires back in their tomb for a while, since the topic has been pretty thoroughly explored. To summarise -- If you think you're being harassed, file an abuse report. Also block your harasser. Depending on what viewer you're using, derender may be an option. Consider reporting the matter to the data protection authority in your jurisdiction. Garlic necklaces may or may not help. I'm now locking the thread before we descend into a discussion of what sort of sauce to eat with our stake and chips (see thread on the Official Viewer v Firestorm).
  21. If people want to discuss consent in SL, they are very welcome to start a thread dedicated to the topic, either in this forum or (probably better) the Adult forum. But this thread simply isn't the place for that discussion.
