    I know that some new people that onboard are referred by relatives or friends who are able to guide them through the process. But that's not a big percentage.

    You mean you want Linden Lab to remove legs from all the avatars? 🤣 Just sayin'.

    Freakbook is very clueless on the metaverse thing.

    The one time I closed a group - it was just 31 people and I posted in group chat and notices a few times it was going away and if they wanted to leave early, go for it. About 10 aknowledged it and 5 left. The day I started turfing I PMed each member I was closing the group and will be clearing everyone out. Only got 1 complaint back. I remember a few years ago a store that closed put in the group's description "My shop is now closed --- please eject yourself from the group, I'm too lazy. Thanks for the fun times."

    I'm surprised SL or the Lab doesn't have an official Discord. Then again some Discords can be the wild west and derail a lot faster then a forum. Plus the Lab probably doesn't have enough person power or "Mole" power to keep things in check.

    Another one.... Part peeve of a misbehaving computer server and part story. This was long ago (back in the mid 2000s) at the night club we used to own back in California. The music server would crash and burn after 2 hours and we would have silence until we fired up the back-up CD players. I took apart the server and check --- didn't find anything and let it reset. Even had a computer guy come out and couldn't figure it out. One night it happened and this one guy said he was a server tech for a certain company in San Francisco and asked if he could take a look. I showed him the rack where it was at and he checked it out. He then said "this box is similar to what we use to run 'regions' on." I didn't get what he meant, but he found the issue. There was a hidden fan and it was full of dust and stopped working. Upon using a can of air on it, it started spinning and from that point on the server hummed like a Humvee! I said thanks and offered to pay him, but he refused, but I gave him a couple of tickets to get drinks from the bar or food on the house. I asked what the 'Region" thing was, he said "I work for this cool virtual world and I'm one of the back-end IT that keeps the little fans running. Maybe you should check it out. It's called Second Life." Thanks to him how I got checked into the "Hotel SL!"

    Sadly too many are addicted to it --- so I won't expect a big drop in users during the latest scandal they're having.

    Freakbook buying out Linden Labs. That is scary!
  10. Kimmi Zehetbauer
    Freakbook don't want that. They want everyone to go through them. I remember Zuck long ago saying something about FB being your connection to anything online.

    I don't do SM either. Hate they want a physical entry if you don't do social. So no sale!

    I usually get positive comments about my avi. I try to make her look my RL self. I remember long ago me and my man were both logged in and went to a special event. About 5 minutes later we booted from the event as the person putting it on said "Sorry, mixed couples not welcomed here."

    Don't give the Lab ideas. I can see at a board meeting --- "Ok, I think if we removed the legs from all the characters, it might save on server resources and dial down our use of the AWS cloud." Then we'll have a 2000 page thread about that on the board with the Mods working feverishly to keep the "train" from derailing! 🤣

    Except for a few cases. One of the persons my man was chatting with on amateur radio is trying to get a tech job in California --- but the guy got declined as the company preferred H-1B visa people.

    Freakbook is the reason I wouldn't touch Oculus with a 20 metre pole!

    I see a lock in this thread's future when a Mod makes the rounds. I'm sure InvisionBoard has a feature to auto-lock threads after they're idle for a time. I know the board I'm a Mod at has that feature and locks idle threads after 60 days.

    Going back to the Halfatars FB uses -- I had someone come into my bar the other night and he bought his laptop in. After he got on he was showing a friend the FB "metaverse" aka Horizon Workplace. They were doing some oohs and ahhs about that halfatars and showing what they can do. Being the devious one I decided to go to the DJ booth and logged onto SL and sent the video to one of our big screens. Our barkeep told them to look at the big screen and their mouths dropped. She said one of them said "wow, they have whole bodies, that must be new!!" The Barkeep said no, it was Second Life and it's been around for about 2 decades. The guy with the laptop quietly closed his laptop.

    One peeve, logging in and finding out some of your stuff --- including some that you are wearing --- get moved to Lost & Found folder for some strange reason. Glad my house is the dumbest one on Earth. No smart crap in it.

    Only if we could reduce our age in RL!

    I was logged in yesterday and someone in a group were saying how the new machines with few exceptions were very manipulating. Someone was accusing a creator of one of them and that person said he was gonna AR any complainers of slander and stuff. Time to ban them.

    Something similar but would more be the peeve of the cable guy that came late to fix the cable drop to our house. Reason he was late was due to him pulling coax through the crawl space of a customer's house and discovering a busted sewage pipe and falling into the nasty puddle. He had to go home and clean up before coming to our appointment.

    I took a rare log in other day and at a store saw that thing. The shop owner replaced all his vendors with that and to get complete outfits cost a lot more. Greed.

    So no way to restore animations back to the avi? Or is that something you might need to lodge a ticket for.....
  24. Kimmi Zehetbauer
    At least now her avi is fresh smelling clean!

    Can't believe Zuck can't afford to add legs to his toons.
