...into Lindens. I got the idea from various MMORPGs that have offers which allow you to earn free credits for submitting unwanted gift card codes.

Yes, I did mean straight women.

I'm just asking here because I need a female perspective on this and there are a lot of women here. And I just wanted a conversation. As a cisgender man it's obvious that I would admire women, although I occasionally think a man could be attractive.

I played a few MMORPGs like MapleStory and Elsword before joining Second Life. It was the avatar customization, exploration, and socialization aspect of those games that made me interested in programs like IMVU and Second Life.

When beautiful anorexic models strut their stuff wearing the latest overpriced designer clothing that people will buy and later discard when the next big trendy thing hits - that's the fashion show I remember. Name some songs that would fit this event.

You know, the place in the city where yuppies, intellectuals, hipsters, and everyone in between hang out to get their caffeine fix? Name some songs that could fit the ambiance of a cafe.

I've been looking for some places to play Texas Hold 'Em Poker, but they seem to be fairly empty. I'm looking for a place where I don't need to bet real money.

I guess it's a habit from playing video games, but I always keep my mini-map open. Not only do I find it useful to navigate the mainland, I also use it to determine where avatars congregate and as a gauge to how busy a place is.

Note: Yay! Finally I posted something Second Life-related for once! I hear this from at least one person in the Zindra safe hubs all the time. They say that they will get someone else's IP address to find out where they live. I wonder if that's really possible?

I like KFC and those mysterious 11 secret herbs and spices! It's kinda oily but good. Note: Decided to change it up after all the more "controversial" topics.

Ah, good points. I just find these kinda topics (morbidly?) intriguing and I want to know how members of the board think about this. As for why the Axis Powers won? Maybe the allies didn't get to develop the nuclear bomb or the computers or whatever technology they needed to defeat Germany, Italy, and Japan. Maybe the allied leaders were not as effective in their commitment to victory. I dunno, who knows? I'll let someone more imaginative come up with the hypothetical Axis Victory strategy.

What's wrong?

Disclaimer: I understand that this is yet another political topic - but after watching a movie recently I was inspired to post this and am curious to see what the Second Life community thinks of this situation. If need be, mods can close this. I think if the Axis Powers won World War II, there would be a power struggle between the victors, just as what happened in our reality. I think the difference would be that Nazi Germany and the Empire of Japan would be fighting a more "active" war than the Cold War that happened between NATO and the Warsaw Pact. There would be more direct fighting between the two as they try to conquer the world. Also, territory would be more tightly controlled by the two world powers. The world would have been polarized much more than if the Allies were the victors. I think Japan would slowly progress to a quasi-constitutional monarchy in the Prussian sense - the Emperor would still retain a lot of power but the Imperial Diet and the Prime Minister would serve as an effective legislature too. Voting rights would only be limited to Japanese Males over 18 or something. Their territory would make up most of Asia and the Americas. I think Germany would be a totalitarian empire with no human rights whatsoever (except for certain "Aryan" people.) The Fuhrer Adolf Hitler would be the supreme leader, as well as his descendants or appointed successors. Their territory would be all of Europe, Africa, and some of Asia and the Americas. There may still be some rebel groups in far reaches of the world who would want to restore freedoms before World War II...but they would have to work covertly.

Thanks as always for your input, Beth! I'm in Las Vegas right now for the New Year celebration. I love going to Vegas mainly to dance at bars and celebrations, but since they're not open right now I play at the casino to kill time.

Thank you for the assurance!

Do you think I have gambling problems if I only gamble for fun (and comps), not expect to win big, and spend within a specified budget?

I don't mean horror of the gorefest kind or just jump scares or whatever. I mean horror that actually messes with your mind and will question your sanity.

Well, those were some pretty interesting posts made since I last responded! I wanted to address a few things. @Scylla Rhiadra The primary purpose of this topic was to hold a random giveaway. I got the idea from another board. I am aware that positivity can be accomplished without financial compensation, but I feel like you are thinking too much about the intentions of this topic. I ask posters to put a little effort (even just a sentence or two) in their posts mainly to avoid spam (I apologize if it seems blunt, but that's how I can explain it.)
