  1. I'm sorry to hear that your friend passed away.  You must miss him terribly.  *hugs*

    I'm really lucky to have these two in SL.  We do loads together and they're really special to me.  🥰  We go exploring, sailing, flying.  We have shops so we make stuff.  We watch movies or hangout and talk.  Friendships in SL have proved to be really special and fulfilling for me and I'm really grateful for them.  😄

    Absolutely, even the post office has all but left!

    With the vast majority of people at St. Lewes being from the UK & Europe all of our events and upcoming classes etc will be tailored mostly to that those timezones.

    That suits me perfectly.  I joined your group last night and will keep an eye out for events.  I love the play park, by the way.  :)

    The region is Moderate (M), as we have residential homes here, which are parcelled and limited to parcel viewing. We have a robust covenant which is enforced for the safety and comfort of our visitors and residents which outlines strict rules around Mature themes in public spaces.

    The sim is family and child friendly and is at the forefront of our decision making for the sim, we have families living here and we have a number of activities for children including, daycare, library, play area, indoor play area and we’re also adding workshops/day school in the coming weeks.

    You'll be adding a school?  😮  I've been looking for a school to attend for a long time but lessons often run too late for me.  A school would be amazing!

  4. Waves to everyone.  :D

    I'd be so interested in this myself.  I've been thinking recently that maybe a group for kids interested in this kind of RP would be more productive than looking for a specific sim because options have become so limited.  I'm in the process of putting together a group for kids who don't really fit in with the toddlers or teens and are looking for a place of their own in SL.

    Before the recent policy changes I tried RP at Crack Den but I didn't feel comfortable there at all.  My main RP is currently at Mischief Managed and it's got a lot going for it but I'm still looking for something modern and kind of urban and everyday.

  5. Hi floofyy!  :D  I'm Runa and I'm also in EU SLT+8.  Most of my time is spent with my little friend.  We go exploring together, shopping, sometimes watch movies, make new outfits for avatars and go to storytime.  I belong to a RP sim which I like to keep up with too.  We're both pretty relaxed and you'd be very welcome to hang out with us if you wanted to.  Feel free to IM me inworld.

    Actually . . . *cough* . . . I'm looking for a volunteer, either man or woman, who would be willing to model for one of these experimental grungy portraits for me. I could just use an alt, but it's more interesting using another person!

    Warning: I really am experimenting here. It might not be any good! But it will be somewhat along the lines of portrait above.

    I am actually an alt. My first account was born a few months before I was.

    A confirmed alt sighting!  👽🧐

    I created my alt Laskya in 2013 because I wanted to return after a 2 year hiatus, but with a bit of a fresh start. Nothing nefarious, and I didn't care that much if I got outed . . . which was a good thing, because I posted maybe 20 posts here before I was detected. And yeah, it was my writing style, which I didn't bother trying to conceal, that betrayed me.

    That said, I am utterly clueless about detecting alts. Really and truly, I'm awful at it. People here will sometimes allude darkly to such and such an alt, and I'll have no idea what they're talking about.

    Your post has made me realise that I'm also an alt.  This isn't my first SL account, that was made years ago, so technically makes me an alt... I think...

    I'm bad at guessing who's an alt myself but when I made this account my best friend spotted me instantly.  Unless someone declares "I'm so-and-so's alt!" I wouldn't have a clue.

    One thing I'm curious about...has anyone ever been on an alt, and then run into somebody they knew on their main...but that person was acting out of character or showing another side of themselves? 😲

    What a great question!  I've thoroughly enjoyed reading the replies you got.

    I have 1 alt that I use for script testing. I don't feel at home in my alt. I have a difficult enough time with that.

    I assume people really enjoy their alts. I love that. It shouldn't be considered bad in my opinion.

    I really relate to this.  Not feeling at home in an alt.  My avatar is so much an extension, a representation of the real me that trying to be an alt feels awkward for me.

    My main concern is how can anyone manage more than one inventory!? 💀

    Woof!

    You make a very good point, Tasha!

    I don't think there's anything wrong with having one or more alts.  They seem to get a bad name because they're often used for avoiding people on friends lists or stalking an ex-partner.  Bad, very bad!

    Some alts have less troublesome purposes like being a model for a main's fashion brand or holding cash for a main's sim.  An alt might even exist because the user wants to have a separate account for a different gender or species.  Another common reason to have an alt is for roleplay.

    So... no, I don't think there's anything wrong with alts.  They have a lot of great uses!  Just ignore the folks that have a problem with alts.  It's their problem!

    "Level 1 Acquaintance" already kind of exists, when you give someone new your own Calling Card. I prefer to do this instead of accepting "Friendship", as a list of "Friends" who you once spoke to for a couple of seconds or minutes is unappealing and embarrassing when the so-called "Friend" never sees or contacts you again.

    I've never thought to use my Calling Card in this way!  I don't like to add people as friends until I've bumped into them a few times but now I'll remember to drop them my Calling Card so I don't just disappear into the ether.
