    Please, stop talking unless you can say Linden Lab. There is no Linden Labs! Yes, it is trivial, but important. How can you discuss a platform seriously if you can't even get the name right??? (Not sure if triple question marks is ok or not).

    If you try to scrutinize or control the conversation too much, it may come across as a negative strategy and harm your credibility. So, it's recommended to stay focused on the main topic and avoid acting like a gatekeeper. This approach can increase your chances of convincing your opponent and reaching your desired goal. I apologize if my English is not perfect, as it is not my native language.

    Why is it unfortunate? Actually I think it is a good thing that they don't.

    Violations of the TOS and CS should be handled but beyond that, why should they get involved. This isn't Kindergarten. Though sometimes the way people react you would think that is where they think they are. "Teacher, Tommy won't stop staring at me...." Reading some people's Profiles, that is probably what their AR's sound like.

    I hope I am not sounding cynical but there is an awful lot of this.

    I'll give you an example why it's unfortunate.

    Unfortunately, renting a sim parcel in Second Life can be a risky endeavor due to the potential for estate companies or sim owners to suddenly disappear, leaving users vulnerable and without any means of recourse. In addition, users are subject to varying rules and interpretations from each sim owner, which can lead to disputes and one-sided judgments. While Linden Labs' hands-free approach to Second Life is understandable, it may not always be suitable for all situations. It would be nice if Linden Labs would enforce a transitional grace period from 3 to 7 days. Maybe only enforce this in major content that is seeing a significant money investment or huge install base. Of the sim or estates company to warn residents of their removal of their sims or business in Second Life. An example of this is Slink all of a sudden closing up shop and not warning people until it happened. I know it's unrealistic to give support to a product for the rest of the shelf life of that product. 

    It is disheartening that users may be at the mercy of sim owners or estate companies, highlighting the need for Linden Labs to provide assistance or intervene when necessary. In cases of significant financial loss, Linden Labs could offer support and clearer guidelines for handling problematic situations, such as disputes with other users or issues with sim owners.

    Respecting the autonomy of sim owners and estate companies is important, but it is equally critical to ensure that users are not left vulnerable to fraudulent activities or unforeseen events. While some may opt to pay rent in advance as a precaution, relying solely on the rules and interpretations of sim owners can prove problematic. For example, in cases where club owners take sides without considering users' perspectives, users may feel helpless. I know Linden Labs cannot have the manpower to monitored their platform 24/7. I know that would be unrealistic. Thank you for listening to my TED Talk. I apologize in advance if this is not completely on topic.

  3. The fancy avatar plugin for blender you are referring to is Avastar. If you do it yourself you will be paying $44 or $L 11000. Here is a video explaining how to rig a 3D model into second life. I'm not sure how much commissioning a custom avatar would be. Residence of second life often like to create off brand versions of existing properties. Sometimes this can get you in trouble but most of the time not really. You see branded stuff all the time in cake day and dream day. (◔_◔) 

    If you're looking for a furry avatar check the marketplace I'm not quite up-to-date on the latest trends for furrys but for human avatars I know quite a lot about that. I'm pretty sure someone else can point you in the right direction if you're looking for a furry avatar.

  4. Yeah my triangle count was very high. I fixed it by not remaking the mesh because it would take too long. What I did was redo the UV map and put everything on one texture. It still says it's more than one face but at least it's textured the way I wanted to be. For the future I will keep it under 21,844 triangles.

  5. Hello, my Mesh is supposed to have 2 faces not 4. When I created it in blender I put two materials and I called them Material001 and Material002. when it is unrigged it works fine but when I rigged it with Avastar 2.93 the mesh brakes and it makes 4 faces on the mesh. Does anyone know what the problem is I'm doing?

     

    Thank you in advance

  6. My friend is looking for a costume he's looking for something similar to Batman the dark knight what batman wears. He has legacy classic body. He says he's check marketplace and we haven't found anything. Does anyone know of a crater that creates something similar to body armour?

  7. Had a bit of a fight with someone in world for just defending why I like morphs. I think they look good there are some good morphs and some really bad morphs. I understand if you're going to sell a skin and use a morph as a vendor that's a bit misleading. I'm on the fence 50/50 on that. I know people pay up to 2K for a morph on flickr.

     

    So I would like to know about everyone else's opinion on them?
