    Bellisserian Positivity Thread

    in Linden Homes

    Posted

    For me, I was barely logging into SL, I would go a month+ at a time before April. I was an introverted hermit keeping everyone at arm's length. I didn't trust. I used ban lines to create a false sense of safety. I was still running scared from something that happened 12 years ago.

    Since April 16th, I have missed, I think 2-3 days? I adore the community that has grown in Bellisseria for the most part. I've gained friends and neighbors. I wander and explore. I say hello first sometimes and don't always retreat away. I've started building again, something I used to love to do.

    Idk, Beth, lol got room for someone that isn't into um.. everything ;) but still loves the community and laughter and humor (and recipes!)

    Since April 15, 2019 I have been able to walk out of my house(boat), hop into one of my many boats or onto a dolphin and take off searching for new adventures. That is something that really few of us can do without spending a lot for buying or renting a mainland parcel. I've gained +100 (so far at least) new friends. In every other place I've lived in SL this is the closest I have found to a real community. The moles have done an amazing job of building and landscaping the regions and they only getting better and faster at doing it and I think it's made a huge positive impact on my enjoyment of SL.

    Now I recognize you! (sometimes I wish we could see the inworld names here, I don't always recognize people lol)

    Ugly brick corner pieces

    It will only work from your side, meaning those taking pictures outside your house for their amazing photos, or those visiting your house, are still going to see them. And probably wonder if it's a design flaw/misplacement of prims/décor/accident as opposed to an actual attempt at covering up. But I could be completely wrong about that.

    True, but only the house owner has expressed a dislike for the 4 red brick corners. So people taking pics or visitors may not see a problem with them at all. Decorate the yard first and then, after checking that you aren't making weird arrangements with them, derender and forgetaboutit

    Could make them part of some decor spots. Like the shrubbery idea mentioned for the front ones. In the back yard, maybe turn them into raised garden/flower beds (I think there are brick walls in the content pack), or maybe plant Hydrangeas or Lilac bushes, or cherry trees. Something that helps tone down the jarring contrast.

    I think he's afraid of him peeping thru other ppl's windows, and the Linden seeing him do it. 😍

    This reminded me of many years ago when I was a guide in a (then) popular MMORPG. We had the ability to move around and observe undetected. Quite humorous to catch a troll in the act when you suddenly revealed yourself and you are standing directly between them and their target.

    Sadly, the actress who played Violet Beauregarde just passed.

    Have some blueberries in her honor and follow the advise of the

    Let's try not to derail this thread too much, I really dont want to have to close it. 

    For what it's worth I am happy to pose for a picture any time anyone wants if they see me out and about. Even if it's in my Linden home, just walk on up and knock on the door!

    Now let's make sure we are all being nice please, it's the weekend, it's time for fun.

    No, no, you don't understand.    One of the many advantages of being a premium member is that when the stars are right, the lost city of R'lyeh rises from the ocean and Great Cthulhu rises from his aeons long slumber, premium members get eaten first.

     

    is C'Thun related to him? ;) If so, then I need to remain very, very hidden because he's not going to like how many times I've killed his relative. :ph34r:

    Quartz Mole wonders if he should mention the Church of Starry Wisdom and the worship of Mother Hydra and Father Dagon,  particularly in the context of so many residents now living on the water and what is said to be the preferred breakfast of great Cthulhu when he awakes from his aeons old slumber.      The work LL is doing with the new EEP viewer may or may not be significant, given the importance this ancient cult places on the time when the stars "come right."

     

    Staying landlocked it is then!

    Thank you @anniepany.

    I got to find the Tilia threads, and coffee. This needs coffee.

    Once you're done with the legalese in the blog, this may help:

    Short version: if you do not carry a usd balance and ignore said usd balance for over a year, it will barely affect you except for the fact they're automatically making everyone these tilla accounts. The part I do not like at all is the fact our passwords will be the same for SL and Tilla.

    My husband and I have joked about needing the coyote to visit our neighbor's little tiny yap-yap ---- and we both love dogs and have had lots of them in our lives.  That dog, however, yaps pretty much non-stop, at everything and nothing, any time he is outside.  And it is one of those high pitched yaps, instead of a real dog bark.

    I'd never really wish ill on an animal, but that dog definitely hits my buttons more than any other animal ever has.

    We have a yapping beanie baby next door that taps all the time in a high pitched yap. We have about the same types of yards as Bellisseria and I can hear that stupid ankle biter when it is inside its house yapping and I am inside mine Unless I have the AC and TV going.  If I could pull one thing from SL to RL it would be restrict sound to parcel.

    Thankfully our dogs are utterly oblivious to its noise.

    I tend to use the Mole av (our official av, after all) for occasions like Meet The Moles.   Normally I wear that av (left over from one of our promo shots for the snowball fight one year, I think) though I am sometimes to be seen as Pinhead, Cthulhu, a prim box, and a rather cool bento snake.     Whatever I feel like, really.

     

    Oooh a snek?

      I'm wondering if they've managed to create themselves another work area somewhere, for the new themes, that we haven't found yet.

    Now I am imagining some really boringly named private estate/solo regions peppered across the grid. Each with a 256x256 prim up in the air textured with a replica of the ground below. Underneath, at ground level the Moles are working without the paparazzi knowing that they're even there.  :D

     

    (eta... husband has a movie on right now and a scene where they tap into the surveillance camera and show the "empty hall, nothing to see here" image to fool the security guards was on. Hence the idea)
