    All right, tons of replies with fair concerns. It will take some time to give you all proper replies. Anything else, blast away, I'm interested in what others may have to say.

    When are the elections, and what are the safeguards to ensure fair elections?

    Are you part of a party, do you have a possible cabinet selected? Is anyone running against you?

    Asuming all my previous questions are answered in a positive manner, what kind of leverage would you have to negotiate with LL ?

    Considering that in the BEST case scenario, you would still be actually powerless to deliver in any of the things you promote in your platform as a government, since the system doesnt support a political system, and asuming that you are truthful in your intentions to represent SL users.....   shouldnt you organize a Union instead?

  2. It happens to everyone at some point, it´s nothing to be ashamed off.   Sometimes you are nervous, or the expectations have been built too much, and your community becomes unavailable.  Just relax, think of something else and try again later.

    Either I'm short or everyone else is a giant

    This is me in March 🤣. I had a LOT of help. If you see any guys who don't want to look like a mess, just send them to a gay sim. I mean look at me here. Tiny legs, massive shoulders, wriggly eyebrows and gorilla arms

    Unless the gay sim has a swim team, then they will go out looking just as they arrived

    Over clothes? I don't know but things like Apple vs Android, Xbox vs Playstation, Star Trek vs Star Wars, the original version of something vs the tv/movie adaption, sports teams that happens all the time, especially when things are so tied to someone's identity and I think that is more what is happening with the mesh bodies and heads. I'm not really into fashion IRL so I have no idea if it's like that with clothes.

     

     

    Im in a good mood, so I will settle this once and for all, the right answers are:

    -Android
    -Xbox
    -Star Wars
    -Original (even if it was in black and white)
    -My sports team (I dont have one, but it would be the right answer if I did)

    No one out of highschool should care about what other people wear, unless that is literally your job, like a fashion critic or work in wardrobe in a movie set, etc.

    Regarding Maitreya, I dont think it´s going anywhere, and my conspiracy theory senses are tingling at all the sudden new mentions of it.  Someone on this or other similar thread said that Maitreya was so ubiquitous, that it´s the standard that people use to deviate from.  It´s the Disney of mesh bodies.

    Most humans have similar skull sizes. When you see stacks of skulls in the movies they’re all the same size. Only kids have smaller skulls. When you see someone with a larger skull they are inhuman. They are giants. In SL when guys make themselves 8 or 9 feet tall they don’t make their heads bigger to match their body size because once they make their heads bigger than other human avatars they immediately notice that they have become inhuman. The instinct to stay human and need to make themselves larger is what produces what the OP is talking about.

    I am going to guess that those arent real skulls, and that the props department just made them in bulk, so they are all similar size.

  6. I was wondering about that type of avatar too, I dont think that most of the examples are nailing the eyes, particularly the eyelids of the south american aborigin (Tons of different tribes, Im assuming the OP is looking more at Quechuas, around the former Inca empire, and not as north as the aztecs nor south as the Tehuelches)

    Its odd, because its such a strong identifier (the eye shape), that I would start with an asian head, instead of an african inspired one

    I want to design and create addons for my mesh bodies. Yes, i know how to create in 3D modelling. I.E Signature Gianni, and maitreya Laura.. In order to get the .obj file, or whatever format they have it in, one must have a store. Which is fine, and makes sense. But how can anyone create anything other than Tattoos, Skins, and Nails to use on those bodies to put in the store for them to consider the application? 

    There is this tutorials page, for rigging, something about a ginko leaf.  Im pretty sure they have reverse engineered dev-kits in there, for educational purposes, if you are trying to learn how to work with specific bodies.

  8. the eBODY Reborn looks nice, it reminds me of the Kahlene butt shape, and the Freya breasts.  It looks a lot more natural than Kupra.

    Clothes coverage is still not awesome, there is a lot of volume but not many "styles" of clothes for it, and more expensive than, for example Maitreya, like you could get $L 50 shorts for the Maitreya, but outside events, that will be $L 250 for a similar thing for Reborn.  But I guess prices just need some time to go down.

    Shape wise, it´s definitely curvy, particularly in the lower half, the torso CAN get pretty skinny, but without deformers I dont think the butt can.

    I give it a 1 thumbs up out of 1 thumbs up.

    Between voter disenfranchisement, gerrymandering, and the electoral college - no. The people have not spoken. The entrenched establishment politicians have spoken.

    Using Trump (and lesser loud asshats like Lauren Bobert, MTG, Matt Gaetz, and etc) as a distraction, establishment republicans have maneuvered behind the scenes to achieve the goals they've been campaigning on since Jerry Falwell grifted the "moral majority." 

    Dont get sucked into the vortex !!

    Interestingly enough, more Americans support the right to choose yet politicians across the country aren't listening to the majority.

    How Americans Really Feel About Abortion: The Sometimes Surprising Poll Results As Supreme Court Overturns Roe V. Wade (forbes.com)

    : Gallup polls show Americans’ support for abortion in all or most cases at 80% in May 2021, only sightly higher than in 1975 (76%), and the Pew Research Center finds 59% of adults believe abortion should be legal, compared to 60% in 1995—though there has been fluctuation, with support dropping to a low of 47% in 2009.

    Literally a handfull of unelected men, dictating the lives of all people.  And where is the oposition? Publicly saying that they are against packing the courts... wich they wouldnt be able to do even if they wanted.  Its one of those moments where things look bad, and I cant see how they can be fixed.

    Honestly, I didn't even want to go in too deep at all on a Sunday.. I should have just kept it to my first post and left it at that.. hehehe

    It doesn't take too much of a search to find those things if you really want to.

     

    I should have just stuck with, "Ceka, just give a look in the forums and then get'cher butt on the grid! \o/"

    hehehe

     

    You know what? I logged into the forums to look for some scripting help, and I got sucked into the vortex as well.

    If they were not allowed to sit on a hill and rant their old ways, those ways would fade away and be overshadowed by the younger louder blood more in chime with the times and current problems.. Instead we let them sit up there on that hill and let their ways fester to where a 50 year old freedom got taken away.

    Both sides are going after and attacking our freedoms and rights.. They both are in a power struggle with the people, for control of the people, to knock that contract down between the  governments and the people, in their  favor..

    I'm not at all in favor of what they did to the people.. But as always I was brought up to never trust a one of them bastages on either side, because in actuality, they are on the same team with each other against all the people..

    Get rid of the too old to be in there and their ways start to sound like someone looking back on the old days..

     

    This isnt a "both sides" issue, a partisan court is favoring a religious doctrine over the will of the people.   If you are going to both_sides this, you have to tell me how is the "other side" materially stripping people of rights in a similar magnitude.

    In defense of Codex, although I would not speak for him, he started some of those threads! 

    I'm mighty proud of the fella!

    Your Honor, if I may aproach the bench.  Im trying to prove that the issue is not of a practical nature, being inconvienced by the Orbs, but it is of an ideological nature, he belives 0 second Orbs should not exist on mainland.  And that the statement about his recent interest in the thread being because of an uptick in 0 second Orb events to be a misdirection, a fallacy.

    Do you have this type of behavior? Or something similar? Maybe you don't even know?

    YES! Not only IN second life, but at the forums as well.  I tend to type and answer whatever comes to mind with very few filters, and very often it comes out as rude.  But I am aware of this, so I re-read most of what I type, and I end up deleting.... like 75% of what type, with the reasoning of "I dont need to engage with this and they dont need to read this either.", and I replace the thing with a smiley face or a forum reaction.

    As I have stated at least in my own experience that it is more common now - and that if it wasn't happening so much to be noticeable then I probably wouldn't have even posted about it myself. All I know is my usage of Second Life hasn't changed, but the community and environment in world most certainly have.

    Are you claiming that you havent participated in any of the previous threads about Orbs and Banlines? Because I find that hard to belive.
