    Yes! I also find many of the ones that want SL to recognize the "adult" side of SL and not hide it are also the ones that insist that this is not a dating site.  I guess you should be only here for wild and crazy unfettered sex and the minute you put a label on it like "relationship"  or "love" you are accused of using SL as a dating site.

    If the shoe fits. Lol. But seriously, it does come off as that.

  2. I just want to know this, why is there this need or push to have sex and things associated with it out in public? I mean the fact that there is this need to present it and say it's for sex positivity. It really seems kinda illogical, and before someone goes oh you are clutching pearls. Even if sex is still in private and at venues that allow it or even at your home and people only really talk about it with close friends and their partners. That is not putting a stigma on it, at least to me I think. Which is why I have always wondered, why isn't user generate content enough in SL? Why does LL have to recognize this too?

    Maybe it's just me being extremely petty, but given the chosen name, I can't help but think this basically going to be a basic dipping the toe in venture rather than a full on Fetlife experience. I hope, lol. But yes - even now I see amusing reactions when people bring up SL in random gaming communities. I imagine this won't help!

    Why would you want it to be a whole Fetlife experience, there is more to adult stuff than BDSM Fetishes and Kinks. I think this is a step in the right direction, however I do think it was perfectly fine with just user-generated content.

    And like last year, the gift is NOT available at the main store, but only at the special regions. So all those folks waiting for an hour or more at the store had no advantage over any other person in getting the head quickly.

    And I love that they put a 10min restriction on the time you can be at the gift regions.

    I wish people would just get in get the head and get out.

    SL's trying to compensate with a new function, https://wiki.secondlife.com/wiki/LlRezObjectWithParams

    This is great only for shooting games, but with one big assumption: the rezzing object is assumed to be owned by the shooter.

    This excludes all shooting vehicles from rezzers that are used by non-owners of these vehicles. I such a case, the projectiles rely on a fast on_rez time.

    You can use it for any projectile, heck you won't need to have particles for spells. You can create some cool magic systems with this system too.

    There is nothing ”stupid” in sharing info with persons you trust in ”public” places (not so public, for SL chat, just like for a RL pub; their audience is however limited and known from the chatters at the moment they are chatting).

    Beside, you cannot use others' ”stupidity” as an excuse to violate a TOS (here, SL TOS).

    Okay, but if you want to talk to people in a public space and someone does something with it. Then you are responsible for that info getting out.

    I never said otherwise, but what I say is that if a place uses such a relaying tool, there must be an unmissable warning about it for everyone visiting that place that their chat will be relayed and recorded (one of the aspects of Discord I personally dislike) outside of SL.

    Not saying no one should use such tools, but just saying they must be used in accordance with SL TOS... And I do not see how anyone could disagree with this !

    'nuff said !

    Well you are assuming that all these tools are not in accordance with LLs SL TOS.

    It may contains private matters, especially during adult role-plays, e.g. about your kinks, which in turn can hint about your sexual preferences, RL gender, etc... It may also contain hints about your RL location (where you live), your political opinions, or other things you would share with persons you chat with in SL (and not necessarily during a RP, but about RL matters instead) when ”face to face” with their avatar, after you came to ”know them” better, or even, more private things you would chat with a group of SL friends, and that you would never share ”in the open” on Internet.

    You cannot make any assumption about what a chat post will contain, and whether or not it could lead to private info disclosure (even if indirectly). You cannot therefore relay the chat for everyone to an external service (especially one that exposes that chat publicly) without first ensuring the chatting persons are aware about it.

    Here is a RL analogy: you go get a drink in a pub with a group of buddies, and you chat in that pub about stuff (politics, private relations, your health, etc): you do so in a ”public” place (and other clients could overhear your conversation), yet you would sue the owner of that pub should they record your conversation and publish it on Internet... Same thing for SL !

    Okay, well if someone does that. They are responsible for the personal info they put out. That being said, if you are stupid enough to put all that in a public group. Then that is a you problem. I only share that personal info, with people I am really close to in SL and they have earned my respect and trust. That all being said, if you don't like a group doing that. Here is a simple way to deal with it. Leave the group.

    Emphasis mine again.

    Now, giving the excuse that your relay warns the user ”after the very first message a user chats within it's range” is not enough: what about that first message (which, as I understand it, gets transmitted before the resident could see the warning) ?... What if the user wishes to chat freely (chat is not a group that you join after reviewing its charter and agreeing with it) and yet not gives their consent to see their prose transmitted outside SL ?... What if the user cannot see this warning (e.g. on a second visit) or forgot about it, because they muted you for having annoying objects that keep spamming them with object IMs ?... Information of the user and explicit consent given by the user are not the same things !

    I am sorry, but the chat (*) relay you are using is against both the TOS and the Community standards. Period.

    ___________________________________________

    (*) It might be OK for a group, as long as the information about the relaying is given in the group charter (by joining the group, the user gives their consent).

    Henri, how is having a relay hook, with a group chat in sl to discord sharing your personal info? That makes no sense my man. It is just a means for people to chat in SL and discord simultaneously and in real-time. Chat does not contain personal info, unless you are stupid enough to put your personal info in the chat. Then that is your fault.

    Peeve: People complain about homeless people being near stores or libraries in reviews, yet no one says anything about folks pushing their religion in front of stores or libraries.

    I mean both are unsightly, but it is far easier to detect a homeless person than it is a religious person. That being said, I really don't see a problem with either person. I mean maybe instead of closing homeless shelters, and basically putting them out on the streets or even the fact that these shelters are overflowing. Thanks COVID. Then there wouldn't be homeless people on the street or in front of stores. But to add to that, I usually just say to the religious people, no thank you I am good. But back to the homeless quandary, my province also closed a lot of psychiatric hospitals. Which created a massive influx of homeless people who need a facility to be able to help them. Nope, they put them on the streets, and drug dealers take advantage of them. Then we have homeless refugees and no room to house them. But we keep on bringing them in.

  10. Peeve: and let me preface this by saying. I understand some people can't afford top-of-the-line computers, and I have friends and even a partner who has a potato of a PC. But the thing that truly bugs me is when you have people with toasters going to events at the beginning of it, and basically taking up space by waiting for everything to load in. To the point that they will literally get their daily RL routine done. Like that seems really selfish and they know that if they wait for things to die down. They can just go without all the issues. That being said, people who also treat events as social areas and spend multiple hours talking and basically doing nothing. Like yeah, we know you are shopping. But here is an idea, get in get your stuff, and get out. You can literally demo at home and come back and grab the stuff you want.

    Ya, I probably shouldn't have made it sound as if I meant all boys, because it wasn't.. There was nice boys as well..:)

    Oh, I know, but in my school. It felt like boys like me were far and few between. All I heard them talk about was parties, who they schtooped etc etc. But this was way before I came out as trans. Lol. But still I was looking at them, like jeez calm down dude. Lol. You have your whole life ahead of you.

    It was the same thing in Chicago and pretty much anywhere we went.. Then when you get to middle school and high school the boys start to get more and more friendly.. Not because they want to be friends though. Then you get out of school and it becomes more and more of that..

    And people ask why I got married so young.. LOL

    Yeah I was surprisingly not like that, I was that teenage boy focused on my studies and my friends and my hobbies. I didn't really think of dating or any intimate encounters. Lol. Yeah I know, I am a weirdo.

    I didn't text because it cost extra, that and I just didn't like it..I didn't even like having a phone on me where anyone could get me at any moment, but had to have one for our family businesses..

    My sister and brother got in trouble from adding up 1200.00 in one month from texting on our family plan.. My father just looked at that long, long list of text charges and I just seen him getting madder and madder the closer he would get to the bottom of the list.. lol

    We were on a family plan and he cut off any texting from then on or get your own plan.. hehehe

     

    The worst part about having the device was learning the text slang and emojis. I got the slang down pretty well. But don't know jack crap about the emojis still. Lol
