  1. I must add the last thing. Beeing hypersensible is bad and good. Bad because you can get easily hurted and sad. (Isolation is not good for that It is my feeling. It could be worst. Talking and beeing transparent is better) Good point hypersensibility can feel you better the game. it is easy to immerse in it. It is really not boring you can feel lot of nice emotions. Do not take this always as negative. Human been are behind the kboard. It is not a computer. Feelings, emotions can vary from people to people. But do not forget the good feeling you can receive from others and for those who is deeling with such person. How happy can your feel when you make someone feeling good with lot of positive emotion because you your interaction. Hypersensibility is in both way. And it add higher level to the game. It is my last comment and idea to share.
  2. I don't know where to put this topic. Maybe it is in the right place. If not it can be moved to the correct place. I notice SL amplify emotion. Not for everybody. But sometimes simple act like been unfriended or not receiving answer or been ejected from a place for a light reason can hurt some of us. People don't realise that for some of us it is just the game to be unfriended or ejected and that could be even fun. But for other it awake old pain from the past. Question and advice for such hypersensible people : how to deal with it? Maybe playing better ? Maybe stop playing ? Maybe talk with someone and relativise the thing. Keep going. go in an other place... Question for other : How to play without hurting other. How to detect if you can hurt someone. I imagine most people don't care. But for few who care any advice?
  3. I always start my message with hi or similar word Good afternoon Hello Shalom : it is just polite. Can you imagine receiving this first message from a stranger "Come and play with me," proposed the little prince. "I am so unhappy." Come and play with me I am unhappy : I like this sentense. It is direct not ambigue easily understandable. Play you can understand many activities on SL. Saying Hi the fist time is not only a convention it has a second goal. To check if the other is here or not. 90% you don't receive a message back. Then you know the contact is AFK busy or not willing to talk. Why people say Hi do you think they want to harrass you or disturbe you? No they simply want to talk. And conversation is 2 was communication. You can just replay : I don't want to talk I am busy!! exit. Many people are here on SL to talk and have friend and than play like the little prince wanted!!! But it seems they meet the second population who don't have this need. The fist group is harrassing the second group. The first group is unhappy. I think it is important to have a little bit more emphatie and understand the reason why someone say hi to you.
  4. This morning I wake up with a theory. there are 2 ways of starting a dialogue, communication or making friends. 1. Step by step like the little prince. (this is my way but in SL it does not work) we must be tamed 2. In one step like then you are looking for a job. You have to tell all the first time. (you have to prepare to know your strengh to present yourself at your best and hide your weakness) This is How SL works. I don't say I am right it is just my hypothese why so many people (me included) stay alone and have no friends. It was then that the fox appeared. "Good morning," said the fox. "Good morning," the little prince responded politely, although when he turned around he saw nothing. "I am right here," the voice said, "under the apple tree." Fox "Who are you?" asked the little prince, and added, "You are very pretty to look at." "I am a fox," the fox said. "Come and play with me," proposed the little prince. "I am so unhappy." "I cannot play with you," the fox said. "I am not tamed." "Ah! Please excuse me," said the little prince. But, after some thought, he added: "What does that mean--'tame'?" "You do not live here," said the fox. "What is it that you are looking for?" "I am looking for men," said the little prince. "What does that mean--'tame'?" "Men," said the fox. "They have guns, and they hunt. It is very disturbing. They also raise chickens. These are their only interests. Are you looking for chickens?" "No," said the little prince. "I am looking for friends. What does that mean--'tame'?" "It is an act too often neglected," said the fox. It means to establish ties." "'To establish ties'?" "Just that," said the fox. "To me, you are still nothing more than a little boy who is just like a hundred thousand other little boys. And I have no need of you. And you, on your part, have no need of me. To you, I am nothing more than a fox like a hundred thousand other foxes. But if you tame me, then we shall need each other. To me, you will be unique in all the world. To you, I shall be unique in all the world . . ." "I am beginning to understand," said the little prince. "There is a flower . . . I think that she has tamed me . . ." "It is possible," said the fox. "On the Earth one sees all sorts of things." "Oh, but this is not on the Earth!" said the little prince. The fox seemed perplexed, and very curious. "On another planet?" "Yes." "Are there hunters on that planet?" "No." "Ah, that is interesting! Are there chickens?" "No." "Nothing is perfect," sighed the fox. But he came back to his idea. "My life is very monotonous," the fox said. "I hunt chickens; men hunt me. All the chickens are just alike, and all the men are just alike. And, in consequence, I am a little bored. But if you tame me, it will be as if the sun came to shine on my life. I shall know the sound of a step that will be different from all the others. Other steps send me hurrying back underneath the ground. Yours will call me, like music, out of my burrow. And then look: you see the grain-fields down yonder? I do not eat bread. Wheat is of no use to me. The wheat fields have nothing to say to me. And that is sad. But you have hair that is the color of gold. Think how wonderful that will be when you have tamed me! The grain, which is also golden, will bring me back the thought of you. And I shall love to listen to the wind in the wheat . . ." The fox gazed at the little prince, for a long time. "Please--tame me!" he said. "I want to, very much," the little prince replied. "But I have not much time. I have friends to discover, and a great many things to understand." "One only understands the things that one tames," said the fox. "Men have no more time to understand anything. They buy things all ready made at the shops. But there is no shop anywhere where one can buy friendship, and so men have no friends any more. If you want a friend, tame me . . ." "What must I do, to tame you?" asked the little prince. "You must be very patient," replied the fox. "First you will sit down at a little distance from me--like that--in the grass. I shall look at you out of the corner of my eye, and you will say nothing. Words are the source of misunderstandings. But you will sit a little closer to me, every day . . ." The next day the little prince came back. "It would have been better to come back at the same hour," said the fox. "If, for example, you come at four o'clock in the afternoon, then at three o'clock I shall begin to be happy. I shall feel happier and happier as the hour advances. At four o'clock, I shall already be worrying and jumping about. I shall show you how happy I am! But if you come at just any time, I shall never know at what hour my heart is to be ready to greet you . . . One must observe the proper rites . . ." "What is a rite?" asked the little prince. "Those also are actions too often neglected," said the fox. "They are what make one day different from other days, one hour from other hours. There is a rite, for example, among my hunters. Every Thursday they dance with the village girls. So Thursday is a wonderful day for me! I can take a walk as far as the vineyards. But if the hunters danced at just any time, every day would be like every other day, and I should never have any vacation at all." So the little prince tamed the fox. And when the hour of his departure drew near-- "Ah," said the fox, "I shall cry." "It is your own fault," said the little prince. "I never wished you any sort of harm; but you wanted me to tame you . . ." "Yes, that is so," said the fox. "But now you are going to cry!" said the little prince. "Yes, that is so," said the fox. "Then it has done you no good at all!" "It has done me good," said the fox, "because of the color of the wheat fields." And then he added: "Go and look again at the roses. You will understand now that yours is unique in all the world. Then come back to say goodbye to me, and I will make you a present of a secret." The little prince went away, to look again at the roses. "You are not at all like my rose," he said. "As yet you are nothing. No one has tamed you, and you have tamed no one. You are like my fox when I first knew him. He was only a fox like a hundred thousand other foxes. But I have made him my friend, and now he is unique in all the world." And the roses were very much embarassed. "You are beautiful, but you are empty," he went on. "One could not die for you. To be sure, an ordinary passerby would think that my rose looked just like you--the rose that belongs to me. But in herself alone she is more important than all the hundreds of you other roses: because it is she that I have watered; because it is she that I have put under the glass globe; because it is she that I have sheltered behind the screen; because it is for her that I have killed the caterpillars (except the two or three that we saved to become butterflies); because it is she that I have listened to, when she grumbled, or boasted, or ever sometimes when she said nothing. Because she is my rose. And he went back to meet the fox. "Goodbye," he said. "Goodbye," said the fox. "And now here is my secret, a very simple secret: It is only with the heart that one can see rightly; what is essential is invisible to the eye." "What is essential is invisible to the eye," the little prince repeated, so that he would be sure to remember. "It is the time you have wasted for your rose that makes your rose so important." "It is the time I have wasted for my rose--" said the little prince, so that he would be sure to remember. "Men have forgotten this truth," said the fox. "But you must not forget it. You become responsible, forever, for what you have tamed. You are responsible for your rose . . ." "I am responsible for my rose," the little prince repeated, so that he would be sure to remember. You probably know this text. If you didn't sleep at school. I remember this text and now it comes to my mind in relation how to make friends in SL. This communication could be a SL communication with just few adaptation. I explain how I try to make friends. I try to start communication with people. I start with hello or hi. this protocol is to make sure that the other is online and reply. Many are not online or don't reply for any reason. Busy, sleeping not interested ... Perseverance. Start again untill someone reply. Then I imagine something to say. I ask a question. But many times. The reply is :yes no or just a minimalist reply. After 3 questions I stop because I don't want to be boring. And I understand that the other does not want to talk. Sometimes the conversation is successfull. But this first time I don't say all of me. As I don't trust the contact I need more time to be tamed. Like the fox I need time. The second time I can say a little bit more. example of this story *"Come and play with me," proposed the little prince. "I am so unhappy." (I never meet someone who speak to me so directly every body do as they are happy) This is my first way : step by step What I think SL communication should be for successuff : (I hope I am wrong) The first time you say all of you. You explain what you are doing what you like what you want to do. You emphasis you strengh and you don't talk about your fails. If it like a job interview. You need to prepare this and to be trained. then you wait the answer like in a job search. Usualy it is No we found someone better.... Then you continue. How if your fist step for communication ? Do you say all? Of just a little like me and expect the other come to you again and want to know more? I think SL is hard to make friends because it is like a work. You need to sell yourself. You cannot be natural like the little prince. He is just natural and Say' 'I am looking for someone to play with me'
  5. I never imagine SL as a globe or sphere but always as flat. You can see easily that it is flat.
  6. What does age verified. An avatar is not able to speak and has no voice !! This is complet non sens. I always take it as a joke. it is like age verifiage. Yes I have an age. Sometimes I see an avatarof few month telling I am over of 18 and in fact the real human body is 45. Do you think such information helps. It add lot of fun or confusion
  7. I have been ejected because I had too many scripts. But I don't know how to know how many scripts I have. And if I know the number i don't know how to reduce this number. Is a number of script a good metrics ? you have very small script that sleeps. And hube script thar runs all the times. What is complexity? Is it the number of line in a script ? I notice that sometimes I have a little window that show me my complexity but the number is that this information disapeared after few seconds. How to make this imformation displayed longer. How to know my complexity. What is complexity? How to reduce my complexity or make it more complexe.
