Just hoping that someone from LL gets to hear bout this so they can take action. Hi Conifer. What exactly did you hope to achieve in posting this sensationalist journalism here in GD? I would have thought this is the last place you would expect to find a Linden - except for Xiola, and I wouldn't expect a PR assistant to be much good in a firefight. Or do you know something we don't?

This is the General Discussions forum. This is the SIngularity website, which would be the appropriate place to address your complaint.

valerie Inshan wrote: Thank you very much for your remark, Llazarus. I do make a lot of typos. This is one of the many advantages I take from English not being my native language. Je vous souhaite une bonne journée. You write English wonderfully, Val, and I would not criticise you for trivial errors. But I misread your post as "Turdsdays" and I laughed at my own mistake so I thought I would share it. Dydd da.

Or go inworld and IM her, or drop a notecard on her.

From what I have read here, it sounds like there would be a significant interest in a forum section for those using/learning English as a second language. Are you listening, Xiola? I would also recommend to participants the use of a great free browser plug-in called After The Deadline, which is compatible with the forums rich text editor (at least on my own setup: Firefox and Chrome but not IE) and not only identifies spelling errors, but has an excellent non-Microsoft attitude to grammar and style recommendations

Since Rolig wrote that script, why don't you get in touch with her directly? She may be a Loon, but I understand that she is a very nice and helpful person. Unlike some of the rest of us . . .

The lack of response may be something to do with your contravention of the ToS/CG regarding promotion of services in the forums outside the appropriate Commerce/Merchants section. Or it may be that nobody here is particularly interested in encouraging your business idea. Either way, you are wasting your time and that of the GD participants.

Forget it. If you have any significant rl money or assets the movie company's lawyers will claim them as compensation.

That would be the effect of stray neutrinos making it through the ozone layer as a result of solar storms caused by flares on the surface of the sun, and smashing into the xml files in which your shape parameters are held, subtly changing just one or two settings by small percentages. This is also the cause of most typos, and misplacement of threads in GD which should be in Answers, or a Technical forum. I understand Ebbe also blames the phenomenon for the failure of Vizact2000.

My observation is that the principal limitation for those associated with SL lies in the interface between digits and keyboard, controlled (or not) by their wetware RPU.

If people are asking questions in general discussion, they are probably less interested in getting a quick and accurate answer than they are in getting to know people. If someone asks an obvious question, like "do you think it's going to rain?" or "is Second Life laggy today?" most likely they are not interested in the answer. They think you might be fun to chat with, so they gave you an easy opportunity to show it. If you whack them over the head with your umbrella and tell them to google it, you missed the point. However, they found out what they wanted to know and they probably won't be back. If they aren't capable of formulating an interesting original question for discussion - which invites opinion, not a factual response - then I, for one, would be more than happy if they don't return.

I never have a problem with matching socks. I own about twenty pairs of black ones. Those combinatorial mathematics questions which started "You have ten blue socks, 15 red ones and five yellow . . . " always confused me, because they alluded to a ridiculous fictitious world of inefficiency. I mean, when you generally get up for work in winter before the sun has risen, completely hungover, with the bedroom bulb blown, why on earth would you fill your drawers with rainbow coloured socks which will make you look like an idiot, even if you accidentally (p<0.05) managed to select two the same. And black ones don't show the dirt, so can be worn until they have to be thrown away.

Hey, don't worry, Scamp! Hideous is the new attractive.

So you've got the hat then?
