Hey y'all, Dyna literally just posted about our rules against Flaming not too long ago. It's a shame that I'm still seeing a lot of that going on. I'll add to that, please keep in mind: Interpersonal Disputes or Personal Negative Commentary: If you have a personal disagreement, do not post about it on the Second Life forums. Residents who have personal differences have other channels of communication available to them -- private messaging in the forums, or through the various chat options within Second Life. If you believe someone is in violation of the Terms and Conditions, please report the forum post in question or use the “Report Abuse” tool in the viewer, if the abuse is happening in-world. I don't want us to have to lock this thread. Please keep it clean.

Hi everyone! Since the thread was created over 7 years ago and there were 6 and a half years between the most recent two posts, we're going to go ahead and lock this thread. If the position is still available, we would welcome an updated thread about it.

Hi y'all! My apologies, but I'm going to go ahead and lock this thread since there were 8 whole years between one post and the next two. If this position is still available, we'd welcome an updated thread about it.

Hello everyone. Unfortunately we had to make the decision to close this particular Thread on this worthwhile topic yesterday. In order to keep threads open, we need our community to commit to upholding the Forum Participation Guidelines that you have agreed to by choosing to take part in our Forums. This means, among other things, keeping your posts both On Topic and Civil. Please refresh yourselves on the requirements: https://wiki.secondlife.com/wiki/Linden_Lab_Official:Forum_Participation_Guidelines

Hi there! Thread is remaining open for now, but I'm disappointed that I've had to remove several not-so-nice posts from the conversation. Please remember that Flaming is disallowed, and keep your comments civil: https://wiki.secondlife.com/wiki/Linden_Lab_Official:Forum_Participation_Guidelines Thanks!

Hi everyone, I know the Forum Participation Guideline updates still feel pretty new, but gentle reminder that in addition to threads being directly related to Second Life, posts still need to be kept to the original topic of the thread. This one went off the rails pretty quickly and continuously, so we're shutting it down. Please take a moment to familiarize yourselves with the Guidelines: https://wiki.secondlife.com/wiki/Linden_Lab_Official:Forum_Participation_Guidelines

Hi everyone! Some insightful conversation here among the inflammatory remarks, but regardless it's not directly related to Second Life specifically, and therefore has been locked. If the thread could exist on a non-Second Life Forum, that is probably a good sign it doesn’t belong here. https://wiki.secondlife.com/wiki/Linden_Lab_Official:Forum_Participation_Guidelines

Hi y'all! Many of us love a good zombie during the haunted season, but this thread was both over a decade dead and not something that'd be allowed by our latest standards, so it's been locked. Please take a moment to see the Forum Participation Guidelines here: https://wiki.secondlife.com/wiki/Linden_Lab_Official:Forum_Participation_Guidelines Thanks!

It's too bad that this couldn't be a friendly and productive discussion. It has now been locked. Interpersonal Disputes are never appropriate for the Second Life Forums. We would prefer if you did not engage at all, but if you must please keep it to the DMs or inworld IMs instead of subjecting the general populace to your disputes. Please take this opportunity to review the Community Participation Guidelines: https://community.secondlife.com/forums/topic/403538-community-participation-guidelines/

Hi y'all. Gentle reminder that the Forums are not a place for Interpersonal disputes and Flaming (ironically, the very complaints that seem to have prompted the creation of this Thread in the first place . . .). Since the Thread has completely derailed into just that, it has been closed from further comment. Please take a moment to review the Community Participation Guidelines: https://community.secondlife.com/forums/topic/403538-community-participation-guidelines/

This got a little too unfriendly too fast, so I'm afraid this thread is done. Please avoid Flaming (hostile or disruptive posts, or messages intended to incite an angry response), and keep Interpersonal Disputes in DMs -- or preferably refrain from them altogether. Here are our Guidelines for participating in the Forums: https://community.secondlife.com/forums/topic/403538-community-participation-guidelines/ Thanks!

Hello people of the Second Life Forums. As it appears a reminder is needed: Differing opinions are allowed in the Forums. Being wrong is also allowed in the Forums. Name-calling, Flaming, Interpersonal Disputes, and Off-Topic posts? Still not allowed. Please take a moment to review the rules of engagement: https://community.secondlife.com/forums/topic/403538-community-participation-guidelines/ Feel free to carry on within those guidelines. Otherwise:

Hey y'all, if we could please get back to the original topic this thread can be allowed to continue. Please take a moment to review the Community Participation Guidelines: https://community.secondlife.com/forums/topic/403538-community-participation-guidelines/ Thanks for your cooperation going forward.

Hey y'all, I've just had to come through and remove a bunch of posts from this thread that were completely off-topic, several of which also contained Flaming and/or Personal Disputes. No one likes having to do that. There are some gorgeous shots in this thread and it'd be great to see it live on. To keep it going, please abide by the Community Participation Guidelines: https://community.secondlife.com/forums/topic/403538-community-participation-guidelines/ Thanks.

Hi y'all, looks like this Thread went off the rails a long time ago, so it has now been locked from further comment. Please take a moment to review the Community Participation Guidelines: https://community.secondlife.com/forums/topic/403538-community-participation-guidelines/ Thanks!

Hi y'all, we're gonna go ahead and lock this thread as it had been dormant for 11 years and the more recent posts don't bring anything new to the table. For feature request, you're always welcome to submit a JIRA!

Hey y'all, we are all adults who know that this can be a sensitive topic, so please tread lightly and post with empathy first. We invite civil conversation and disagreement, even about difficult topics. However as always, Flaming and Interpersonal Disputes will not be allowed in our Forums. Some action has been taken accordingly. https://community.secondlife.com/forums/topic/403538-community-participation-guidelines/ Be well, be kind.

Hey y'all, necrothreading to go on an off-topic political sidebar is pretty uncool. The posts in question have been removed and I am locking the thread from further comment, since it's been so misused. Please review the Community Participation Guidelines to avoid further such action: https://community.secondlife.com/forums/topic/403538-community-participation-guidelines/ We know the moderation filters can be a little buggy, still. Thank you for your continued patience.

Hello everyone. Sadly this thread had to be locked due to flagrant disregard of the Community Participation Guidelines by almost all of the participants. Please remember that if you post in a thread, you're expected to keep your comments both on-topic and civil. Personal disputes and name-calling are not welcome in the Forums. We would strongly prefer that these are dropped altogether, but if you simply cannot, please take it to private messages. As always, the Community Participation Guidelines are available here: https://community.secondlife.com/forums/topic/403538-community-participation-guidelines/

Hey y'all, please remember to keep your posts directly relevant to the topic of the thread. Thanks! Community Participation Guidelines

Actually we're gonna go ahead and let this Thread live on for now, because there was a nice consensus as to the topic with people giving their 2 cents on whether or not the Forums should exist just for Premium members. Let this be a general warning, though, that y'all have got to keep things cordial. And on topic. But most of all, let's cut out the flaming and the personal attacks both direct and veiled, m'kay? If you can't figure out what's allowed, please take a moment to read the Community Participation Guidelines.

Sorry for the delay folks, but several of you called it -- this thread is now officially closed! Going forward, please remember to keep all commentary both on-topic and civil, so that we can maintain healthy Forums full of long and productive conversations. Please take this opportunity to review the Community Participation Guidelines. Just to clear up any remaining confusion on one point, "Linden" when used to refer to a person refers specifically and exclusively to official employees of Linden Lab. https://www.lindenlab.com/tos#tos9 https://www.lindenlab.com/legal/community-standards Thank you for abiding by all the rules and guidelines going forward.

Hello everyone. Well, it appears that you've all been generating more than enough of the excitement OP seems to have been asking for. Far, far too much in fact. I can see that this Thread has been of-topic and absolutely chock-o-block full of name calling, interpersonal disputes, flaming and other varieties of nastiness, so it has been locked. Please be sure to review the Community Participation Guidelines. I'm quite frankly a little aghast. Please remember to play nicely so we can have good, long, constructive Forum discussions in the future.

Hi there! Please remember to keep posts both on-topic and civil, so that this thread can remain open. Walking away from interpersonal disputes is always recommended, but if you simply must let someone know your opinion of them or their opinion, please take it to private messages. If you need a refresher, you can always review the Community Participation Guidelines.

Hey y'all! I'm going to have to go ahead and close this thread because it has gone very much off-topic, and this is not the appropriate forum or venue for the discussion it has become. Please remember that commentary needs to remain directly relevant to both the original Topic of the thread and the forum that it's in. Here are those guidelines again: https://community.secondlife.com/forums/topic/403538-community-participation-guidelines/ Thanks!
