Haha, I know. People can never believe I want to learn it but I think it's a beautiful language. It would be lovely if you could help. I have no idea how to do this, tbh, I never learned a language through another person, but maybe we can figure something out.

Hey all, This may be a far stretch but I figured I could give it a try. I've wanted to learn Romanian for a while now but can't find any RL lessons near me, so I figured why not look on SL. I saw there are various language schools, courses and groups but couldn't find any Romanian ones. Does anyone know if that exists. I don't care if it's free or not, for now I'm okay with any suggestion for me to look into. If it helps, I'm a bloody beginner, only know the odd word so far.

I only just rented my first SL home yesterday, so I have no actual experience to go by. But judging by my RL, I'd say I'll probably always spend more money on clothes than home stuff. I don't really like to re-do my home all that often because I like returning to the familiarity of 'home' but clothes...man, I could go shopping for clothes every single day. No no, scratch that, I wanna go for a shopping spree as soon as I return from the last!

I've only been using my account for a few weeks now and it's already happened once. As it seems, a lot of people have friendships and even relationships in SL but don't consider them "real". Whenever something in their RL changes, it'll be easier for those to just walk away, or so it seems. I try to get a feel for how closely linkes people's SL and RL are, so I know not to expect more commitment than they're planning to give.

I was dealing with this a lot and the only thing that helped was changing to a classic avatar and then back to mine. Which viewer are you using? Switching from the official SL viewer to Firestorm has fixed this issue permanently for me.

Kann ich nur bestätigen. Ich nutze ein relativ neues Macbook Pro und es ist trotzdem oft schwierig, je nach Sim und Aktivität. Einen Rechner in die Wohnung stellen möchte ich trotzdem nicht. Meintest du im Titel, dass du verschiedene Viewer probiert hast und es mit allen nicht geht? Weil bei mir der Wechsel auf Firestorm ein kleines Wunder vollbracht hat. Ich würde die Performance immer noch nicht als perfekt bezeichnen, aber es crasht nichts mehr und Avis werden wesentlich schneller geladen.

I'm in Germany but for some reason I always expect everyone I meet to be in the US, too. Even though the majority of people I've talked to so far was from the UK or South European countries.

@Rolig Thank you very much. That does indeed seem like more of a hassle than it is worth, so I'll probably just be patient and wait til I get home or make some forum friends, too. @Nalates I did that just today and it came up empty. From old threads I already saw that Android users were luckier in general but even the few options I read about being discussed for iOS users couldn't be found in the German Appstore. Thank you both for replying.

Hey all, I was wondering if there was any way to stay in touch with SL friends outside of using an actual viewer, like maybe a kind of chat or messaging app? I already looked for a mobile app and learned there is none (I'm on iOS and outside the US), but I was wondering if there's some kind of text-only messaging system that either works on a phone or on a computer without installing any software. I'd like to use it from work here and there but can't install a viewer or other software on my computer there.
