  1. Do you have hard data on that compared to residents trying to figure out what variation of Theresa1256 HASNT been taken in the modern age?. If anything, having a last name allowed for greater name customisation. To sign up for an account right now and successfully pick an unused name you would have to open a Sumerian dictionary, throw darts at it and hope the combination of words hasn’t already been used. Then if that fails, switch over to the Mayan calendar and add a couple of baktuns on the end and hope for the best. Back then there were way less “IHaveNoCreativity7383837”
  2. Probably in there for the Gor fappers. See muscular guys walking round SL dressed as Conan The Barbarian with the name “Slave Huntsman” and being far too daft to realise that the name might not be sending out the message they wanted it to
  3. Would be nice though if they had a larger selection and perhaps some more decent names instead of the god awful set they have come out with. Its a shame they are not opening up previous surnames for registration again. I mean, back then, some names slipped in and out over and over again and others only appeared once. I seldom ever see two of the same last name together anymore in SL so I doubt anyone is really going to complain too much. Personally I would be pretty stoked to see more people with my legacy surname. I would consider them my army and as one of the original bearers of the name...their leader.
  4. Unless you know of certain special characters that let you write out Linden and it look perfectly legit 😅
  5. Okay theres enough threads complaining about them. Lets have a thread where we have some fun. What funny combinations can you come up with for the new last names. Ones I have thought of are : Leaky Puddles Freakishly Nimble Salty Crisp Tossed Pancake Precariously Whimsy Clammy Jazzhands
  6. Yeah at $500 setup and $500 per year. Maybe if you re evaluated that pricing you might actually gain some interest in this. As for a last name....ima wait for premium plus and see if the price is reduced or you get a free name change. What you all should have done this.... Name change from pre set list : $25 Custom surname : $100 (given xxxxxx conditions)
  7. It should be £31.86 at the minute. However, LL doesn't use normal currency conversion. They pretty much throw an 8 ball and hope for the best. I had a sim about a year ago and the conversion price from USD to GBP that they were charging me was 15-30 dollars more than what any other finance site / currency conversion site gave me. And I don't have to pay VAT as where I live is in the UK but not part of it, so it wasn't that.
  8. Oh this is easy. Mines an idiot that I can’t wait to shuffle off the mortal coil...lets see ”Hitler had the right idea” Followed by “We should do that to *insert ethnic/religious group here*” ”Women are evil and belong in the kitchen” ”Women are just always our to get you, just evil bitter creatures” ”Jews are bad because they only buy toilet roll from other Jews” ”Feminists are just angry twisted man haters” ”You are going to London next week...look...watch out for the blacks...they hang round in gangs and mug people” As I said idiot...being his daughter was a truly world class experience.
  9. Trying to help a friend. What is the best slender male body that isn’t stupidly muscular or have feet and hands that don’t look like blacksmith hammers. Something you could create a more teen looking avatar with that had a decent amount of clothing options. Also, what is a good looking youthful mesh male head?
  10. You may not have heard of Woodbury but you probably would have heard of the Patriotic Nigras. They were an infamous group of griefers who terrorised the grid for a number of years. Most notably for ruining a certain famous realtors SL to RL news interview. Most of the griefing scripts, textures, sounds you see used in SL probably originated from that group. They were heavily associated with Woodbury U as was half of 4 chan. https://secondlife.fandom.com/wiki/Woodbury_University https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Patriotic_Nigras
  11. I did read it, I was just playing 😅. And thank you. I wrote that far too quickly.
  12. tl;dr DEATH TO CAPATALISM 😜 sorry couldn’t resist. All love ❤️
  13. I’m sick of seeing the phrase “Coronavirus”. I was hoping that this forum wouldn’t become inundated with posts and the “I have it worse than you” crowd would leave well alone. Sadly, it was not to be. I feel for those affected I really do, but there is no where to go to escape it. We have half truths on the real news, fake news on facebook, panic in the forums, conspiracy theories on YouTube. Like, I understand people are concerned but damn am I sick of hearing about it
  14. Where to begin -Ability to save my own custom functions to my computer and load them back in to wherever the cursor is in the script window. Idk why no one TPV wise hasn’t done this yet. We scripters do not get enough love. -Ability to re name multiple things at once -Ability to set permissions on multiple items from a single properties window -Jellydoll type feature for overly complex mesh builds -Option to switch to V1 / FS chat style in the official viewer to get away from the horrific frankenchat it currently has -Option to turn off group chat entirely in the official viewer -Option to see nearby avatars listed up to 4096m in the official viewer and zoom in on them If these three were in the official viewer I would use it happily as my exclusive viewer.... -Ability to create sub folders inside of objects for better management in projects that have a large amount of internal assets such as scripts, objects, notecards, animations etc -2D single face plane prims -Allow the upload of longer sound clips maybe 60 seconds -Integrated bitbucket support for Scripters blah blah blah more for Scripters blah blah less for bloggers and family loonatics they have enough already
  15. This is going up there with llGetMoonRotation. Why are we being given pointless and unneeded functions and being constantly denied useful things such as custom libraries, native switch statements, conditional operators....or....perhaps finally giving us those grid wide experiences promised all those years ago.
  16. So, another combat system related question. More a math issue than anything. In my system I record the following information : Deaths Kills Hits taken I am wanting to use this data to determine someones combat rank. Now, I know I can divide say the kills by the deaths to get a K/D ratio and base my ranking on that. However, I want to include the amount of hits taken as my system has a couple of dodge options to evade damage. Is there a good method I can use to determine a ratio given these three variables and then break up the results to determine what rank someone is. The ranks in the system are simply E, D, C, B, A, S, SS. However, what I don't want to happen, ratio wise, is someone does their first ever kill and suddenly they gain the SS rank as their combat efficiency could technically be 100% at that point if they did it with no hits taken
  17. As a woman I can tell you whole heartedly that sexism is a two way street.
  18. Well I’m in the U.K. so I didn’t realise that about the CDC. I knew about trump however, but I almost never include him in my statements about governments or organisations these days as he just witters absolute nonsense at the best of times. However, I have yet to go wrong paying attention to the NHS and WHO which is where I get my advice from. I have seen so much misinformation over the last two weeks, woolly journalism with no sources and partially reported truths that paint only one side of an argument that I am now slightly jaded towards any other sources of information in regard to the things we can do to keep ourselves safe and prevent ourselves from catching the virus.
  19. So you believe entertainment / news TV and potential fringe conspiracy theories over the official agencies. Good to know
  20. What I would say to anyone is this. If it doesn’t have sources, if it seems woolly, if you are unsure, if it’s not advice from WHO, CDC, NHS etc etc. Ignore it, pinch of salt etc. There is a lot of misinformation around and if you believed even a small amount of it you would be soaking in a bath of brine, but fully clothed to insulate you with a rock salt crystal up each nostril gargling bleach.
  21. You are both amazing. Thank you so much!. I will let you know how I get on 🙂
  22. So, my wonderful scripter friends. I need your help. I have been trying to figure out how to solve the following issue but...I will be honest...angles and arcs have never been my thing. But...I want to get better so... I want to make an attack for this ever elusive combat system I am working on where the avatar fires out 4 blasts at the same time. These four blasts then arc out away from the user as they travel forward and start arcing back in before striking the opponent. One blast fires slightly up and arcs over before coming back down toward the target, two arc from the left and right and the final one arcs underneath and comes back up to strike them. I am at a loss on how to go about this. I feel there is probably some simple / mid level math that I can use to achieve this but I really don't know where to start. These objects being fired are physical objects. See diagram if you are confused :
  23. Yahtzee is a hilarious reviewer. If you liked that you should watch some of his other reviews. He is a very hard person to please. There was one game, I forget what It was now, that he actually liked and his fan base near died
