  1. i havent had a play with it myself but could try doing it with the notecard commands and see how you get on something bare bones to get started with like in AVpos notecard: SEQUENCE MyAutoDances SYNC MyAutoDances | <default animation name> and thats all then in Contents is the AVSequence notecard named MyAutoDances and the AVSequence script in addition to the AVpos scripts
  2. if this is your first sim then keep it all in your name til you have worked with all the estate and parcel tools for a time. Estate and parcel tools serve different purposes if you want to take the first step to group activity then set the region parcel to your group, but keep ownership of that same region parcel in your own name, basically don't Deed the parcel to group. Then can assign group powers to different people as you become more familiar with the group parcel settings Deeding parcels to group is only really of benefit when 2 or more people jointly own the group and any parcels that belongs to the group, parcels/regions which all the owners are paying for. If you don't ever see a need to be in a ownership partnership with anyone then deeding serves little to no purpose
  3. if the dance HUD you are on, is a common one then try chat command /99 stop if that doesn't work then press Ctl+Alt+T (show transparency). Find every dance HUD that people may be wearing (starting with the club hosts) and click (touch) them, usually on theor heads or butt. If you are registered on their HUD then touching will in most cases release you it may not be a HUD that you are on. It may be a dance ball. If so then touch every club dance ball that you can find/see
  4. in your Inventory \ Library \ Body Parts \ Alpha Masks folder is what you need to get started with wear the alpha masks in the folder, to hide your system head only, your system feet only, or your whole system avatar
  5. renting / leasing a parcel is where we rent from another resident like ourselves. Owning a parcel is where we pay Linden Lab the tier (rent) directly it can be advantageous to "own" when we like the idea of having full control over our own home parcel. If you are thinking about owning less than a region then look into Linden Homes to start with. Then later on expand your horizons to mainland ownership renting has its own advantages, mostly the ability to move to another parcel being a bit more flexible. To get an idea of whats available for renting and what you can expect to pay generally then have a look at Anshex : http://www.anshex.com/ is quite a few other estates like Anshe that you can look at also. Anshe tho is probably the easiest/quickest in terms of gathering info about renting costs
  6. i love this song. I seen the movie about 6 times now. Is great
  7. suggest that you start with making something for yourself. Is always a good way to start this way can be a bit frustrating sometimes at the start learning the skills and tools. But we persevere and often end up not only surprising ourselves but our mothers as well
  8. if you were to surface all the prim properties in the design time Build/Edit property dialog then pretty much everyone would kiss you up your face. Stuff like omega and texture motion surfaced as design-time properties would be really good
  9. why did I think this was thread was labeled. OMG, too furry might of been all the chat in other threads recently about antifafurry activism
  10. according to Abraham Lincoln the war was fought to stop slavers from breaking up the USA
  11. time for a frozen interlude I think Let it go, let it go And I'll rise like the break of dawn Let it go, let it go That perfect girl is gone Here I stand in the light of day Let the storm rage on The cold never bothered me anyway
  12. same! the more skimpy and sparkly my SL neko outfits the more work creative I get with my builds. The more dowdy my outfits the more dowdy my builds. Is terrible is dowdy. So skimpy and sparkly it is
  13. am not sure what you mean by legally recognised ethnic minority. Legally recognised by who ? The government ? The ethnic registration board ? when we know who we are, where we are from, who our family is, what our whakapapa/lineage is then we need no other recognition. Nobody can certify us but ourselves thru knowing who we are we can claim to be of a people, we can even get a DNA test to show we are of the blood - to show what we are. But if we don't know who we are also then what we are is unimportant. Unimportant by our choice - settling only for knowing what we are about the white middle class. Is not lots of them who do what you say. Is only a few who use the championing of the oppressed for their own personal advancement. Most, the overwhelmingly most, have a genuine desire to learn about and understand the issues that ethnic minorities face in the shared society. And take what they do learn back to their people of the majority and impart this to them. And I encourage people to continue doing this
  14. i know quite a few police officers thru my own work. Two are in my circle of close friends. One is a detective now and the other is in community outreach. When they both joined the police they were posted to South Auckland. What they found the hardest to deal with as new police officers, was that a significant proportion of offences were committed by people of color in this area of the city. They found that without the training and psychological supervision provided, that it was really easy to succumb to the cynical view that people of color as a body were deficient in some way - even when they as officers knew that the rate of offending was not disproportionate to the local population and was consistent with other population centers. As was mentioned: When the courtroom is dark then the whole world is dark one of my friends had another issue on top of this. His own embarrassment at the rate of offending by members of his own iwi/tribe. It troubled him quite a lot this when he first started. It affected his judgment as a new police officer fresh out of police college. He said that without the training and support provided by the police he would have given up
  15. a rezzed object is unique and independent of other objects rezzed. So we get the message for every rezzed object out of place. While the creator and user of the objects know that there is a relationship between the objects, the server does not. Would be good tho if the server did - would make co-dependencies, transactions and other relational actions a whole lot easier to script and create
  16. yes. I posted as you were posting seems like. In my latest i showed the 3 broad categories. Each can be further broken down. Blackface can devolve further into denigration for example
  17. we write what we do based on what information is presented. Most people, including me, will accept what is written at face value and comment on it accordingly. Had you said in your OP, what you have written now, then I may not have included my comment about him as wrote. I am not tho into second guessing what somebody might mean in the first instance based on what you now say then your friend is a doofus, if he equates your having a black avatar as blackface. Doofus in the sense that he probably needs to do a bit of research before imposing his view on you blackface > parody > titilation appropriation > self-advancement > entitlement immersion > knowledge > understanding knowing the differences can maybe help your friend. Immersion is the path we can all be on
  18. blackface is where we parody those of african descent for no reason other than to titilate ourselves. Titilation can be in a number of forms. A common one is to produce shrieks of o.m.g! in our friends. Another titilation that happens from time to time in SL is a person goes blackface and then after a few days breathlessly reports on blogs and forums about all the racism they encountered i think your friend is full of it. He pulls the blackface on you when his reason has nothing to do with you. Am pretty sure, like 100% sure, that he just don't want to go with a black girl you want to be a black girl then be a black girl. And be proud to be black. Is not like you are titilating yourself by going to a Hallloween party so your girlfriends can go o.m.g!
  19. Milton Freidman was also a proponent of UBI - negative income tax as he puts it - as the most viable way to alleviate poverty in countries that adhere to free market disciplines to generate wealth
  20. Snoutsville sounds like a exotic place, just going off the name am happy tho that you have sorted it out
  21. is a difficult one this at this time I think, as LL seem to see the MP as their department store and allow sellers shelf space perhaps one day they might take up the idea (presented by lots of people before now) of renting shop space as in shopping mall, where the shop keeper can take full control of their shop space. Skin it, prevent other shop keepers from advertising in their shop, ban lists like you say. etc would be quite good that I think, a shopping mall option in addition to the current department store, as a new revenue source. Is a bit like the difference between mainland and estate regions
  22. i think a throttle would be the way to go as I like the idea of using it as an alternative to a titler. I like the visual cleanliness of it as for request spam then am not sure that would be any different to any other request. With a throttle then scripters will soon adjust their practices when using the function
  23. ferals are closer to anthros than they are to human, so I suggest to go with anthro and see how it works out
  24. as the removal of marketplace items is a substantial change then I think the - 5 years no login and only items not sold for 2 years removal policy - is a fairly balanced approach even if a little bit conservative. It could be lowered at some time in the future but as a first step I think is ok
