    Official Statement from Oberwolf Linden

    in General Discussion Forum

    Posted

    One of the big complications for the situation is where the age line is drawn for child. If you're looking at a toddler or younger pre-puberty young person, there's a general consensus if it's a kid or not. Once they cross over the puberty line, if it's a rl person with a rl personage and birthday, under the age of (whatever the age in your country may be) then it's a child. Even if they look like an adult. There are plenty of girls in middle school or high school that could be described as voluptous. Plenty of boys age 12 and up could look adult. The question is, in SL is someone with a well-developed physique automatically an adult? And is someone who shows less of the physical adult markers automatically a child?

    Mediterranean Theme

    in Linden Homes

    Posted

    Strictly as a YMMV, personal observation only, I'm finding locations in the past few days that I would consider much nicer than the ones I found the first few days the Mediterraneans open up.  By "nicer" I mean subjectively based on nothing more than whatever strikes my fancy right at the moment I see it, and may change based on a whim at any time. I picked up a couple that I might hold onto for a while.

    How to wear a coat over a top on Lara Maitreya?

    in Your Avatar

    Posted · Edited by Annie McGregor

    Usually what I do if I have a jacket or coat I want to wear, I find a close-fitting sleeveless shirt to go under it, and pair that with BOM jeans. There's a lot of them around.

     

    Edit to add: Not every long top will fit over every pair of jeans, unfortunately. You have to just try them one by one until you hit the right combination.

    What wrong with being a fanboy/ fangirl?

    That happens to me, too! Mostly when people don't like my post.

    They say things like, "Please consider changing your post, you are better than that."

    Taking it to "IM" is pretty rude, in my opinion! 

    ETA: One of my favorites was when someone messaged me, "What the F is wrong with you!?" 

    LOL!

    I'm outing myself here. I sent the IM about please consider changing your post.

    I wasn't trying to be rude. I wasn't trying to silence anyone. I sincerely was concerned that people might read the post and get a bad impression, for something that may not have been a true representation of how Love would want to be perceived. I know now that I crossed a line, and I apologize.

    While I'm apologizing, I might as well mention that I ran into Sid at an event, complimented his avatar, and in the process may have made him uncomfortable. I wasn't trying to pick him up, it was just me being socially awkward.

    Sorry to have offended so many people.

    A Suggestion on Improving Mainland

    in Mainland

    Posted

    Quartz Mole had mentioned in another thread that if anyone had suggestions on how to improve mainland, start a topic. Here I am, starting one! I've been thinking about this for a while now. There's lots and lots of empty abandoned mainland. Suppose LL took some of those odd irregular parcels, and let people decorate them in a way to enhance the world. Let's say, set a place temporarily so one resident can build a little pocket of interest. No longer than 2 weeks. During that time, the resident can place buildings, landscaping, trinkets to be found, whatever they think will make the world a better place. At the end of the two weeks, the moles come out, change the permissions so the temporary decorator can't make additional changes. Then they decide if it's actually an enhancement or a giant detriment, and either lock the items in place for enjoyment by all, or remove/return them and make a mental note not to let that person try decorating for them anywhere else.

    With 20 years of items that members have purchased, there's an enormous variety that can be put out. Obviously not no-copy items. But for anyone who sees something and think it's amazing, they could click on an item and get the name and maybe purchase it for themselves. It could drive sales. It could also encourage people to move into abandoned land that's near a nicely decorated area.

    It could be sort of an ongoing contest, do a certain number every month, the only prize would be bragging rights.

    I've been seeing a lot of giveaways lately. Any reason why?

    in General Discussion Forum

    Posted

    I'm one of those who won some of the big-name store giveaways. Some on facebook. Some in-store giveaways. I quit doing facebook a while back because they are too insistent on verification of real-life info. I won a couple of times EACH on the two big women's clothing stores, simply because I did it when they first started the facebook contests, and there weren't that many people entering. I can't prove it because I am a serial name-changer and have been through half a dozen names in the past couple of years. Won a big in-store thing for that furniture decor place that gives away big prizes every week. Again, can't prove it, I change my name a lot. The thing is, I don't know these people, they don't know me, I buy stuff in their stores and leave. There's no hidden link between us. I can't say that's the case for every winner or every contest, but for sure nobody is picking me for anything because of my "connections."

    Nice places for seniors?

    I'd prefer that people I meet in SL don't share a lot of specifics about their real life. I don't need to know someone's age (unless they're not adults yet), health conditions, employer, income, specific location, or marital status. Have some fun, hang out with whoever happens to be around.

    Are There Any Free Male Mesh Bodies???

    in Wanted

    Posted

    The Catwa Freya was given out as a gift a while back - can be switched between male and female neck sizes. I don't know if it's still being given out, but it's something to check. I was able to get some decent male looks from it, young to older depending on the skins.

    Overcoming Addiction??

    in Linden Homes

    Posted

    I just let 2 linden homes go back up for grabs today. Having some serious talks with myself about downgrading accounts and using the money saved to pay down some bills. Got a couple coming up for renewal between now and spring. Right now all I have is a 512 mainland, testing to see if my alts can live on it. Game of Homes has been the main activity for the past couple of years, and I need to see if there's something else to interest me in SL.
