  1. ^^^ THIS i was gonna say.. isnt camping a TOS violation? Griping about 2L. "its the principle of the thing." you probably got screwed a hundred times more than this if you played a sploder, which is now against the TOS as well. i have yet to find one that pays out what was paid in. each one is short buy some amount.
  2. i have two, from my favorite authors. "The oldest and strongest emotion of mankind is fear, and the oldest and strongest kind of fear is fear of the unknown." --- H.P. Lovecraft "I must not fear. Fear is the mind-killer. Fear is the little-death that brings total obliteration. I will face my fear. I will permit it to pass over me and through me. And when it has gone past I will turn the inner eye to see its path. Where the fear has gone there will be nothing. Only I will remain." --- Frank Herbert, Dune - Bene Gesserit Litany Against Fear i taught my 7 year old daughter the litany when she was afraid of the dark... i overhead her whispering it when she went to pet my uncles Rottweiler. :smileyvery-happy:
  3. 1897.. third Monday in April...... THE FIRST BOSTON MARATHON!!!!!
  4. you should ask in the Firestorm/ phoenix forums on their website. they may be able to help faster than here.
  5. We are the music makers, And we are the dreamers of dreams, Wandering by lone sea-breakers, And sitting by desolate streams;— World-losers and world-forsakers, On whom the pale moon gleams: Yet we are the movers and shakers Of the world for ever, it seems. --- Arthur William Edgar O'Shaughnessy
  6. SecondLife is not a MMORPG.. not even close. nor is it classified as one in Wikipedias list of MMOPRGs.
  7. i have had this happen as well..it pissed me off. As a merchant i take pics inworld in-front of a prim with an image on it.. if i decide to i add text. i do not do ANYTHING to the image. no color change, touch ups, NOTHING! the pics that have 4 different angles and shiny text, shadowing and what not on one image are ridiculous. we can have 8 images per item.. take multiple pics. Technically you could Flag the item as an incorrect image.
  8. In 1512 The forces of the Holy League are heavily defeated by the French at the Battle of Ravenna. In 1814, Napolean Boneparte, emperor of France and one of the greatest military leaders in history, abdicates the throne, and, in the Treaty of Fontainebleau, is banished to the Mediterranean island of Elba. In 1941 Germany bombers blitz Conventry, England. In 1951, President Truman relieved Gen. Douglas MacArthur of his commands in the Far East. In 1981 President Ronald Reagan returns to the White House from hospital after recovery from an assassination attempt, by John W. Hinckley, Jr. In 1988 Cher wins Best Actress for Moonstruck
  9. how do you use skill with a sploder?

I believe that the perpetrator of the messages is an affiliate, and gets paid an amount of money either for each visitor to the final destination site (or for each sign-up at that site) who goes there from the perpetrator's site. Of course, there is no money for the person who clicks the link and ends up at the final destination site - not even if they sign up there. Soooo, it is a scam. "Happy Holidays from Second Life. Get 1000L for signing up here and confirming your e-mail." if they don't pay out.. IT"S A SCAM!!!
  11. To clear up.. This is not an issue with Phoenix or Firestorm it is an issue with the MP and DD. also Phoenix does support Direct delivery it just does not support the merchants outbox.
  12. this is just a personal opinion, but when making homes you should add the footprint to the description. IE how big it is. someone with a very small plot looks for things like that.
  13. I am very careful with my keywords.. if its a blue dress, i dont put green as a keyword. what i have found is there are a lot of lazy a$$ merchants that bulk edit their items and use keywords to cover everything they sell. Why should i see male genitalia when i search for Steampunk Motorcycles? what does Steampunk have to do with a schlong? and yes , i flag them when i see them. takes a few seconds. and will help enormously.
  14. Here's the deal.. The TOS only applies to SL. if i share a private IM with someone on Gmail or Aol Messenger, there isn't a damn thing LL can do.
  15. we have profiles like FaceBook?!? where? How do i find these? Why wasn't I informed of this!!!!!
  16. I would need to see your dragon but i can swing that.. For a cousin, anything.

  18. What skill factor can you add to bingo? dodging little old ladies?
  19. Sassy Romano wrote: Kristen, are you posting under an alt? I see no marketplace products listed against your name. That would be my guess.. remember that days when you had to be a merchant to post in the merchants area of the forums? and i mean the av had to be a merchant, not an alt of a merchant.
  20. Send me a notecard with what you want and we can discuss price. shouldnt be too much
  21. I didnt say they were bad.. i said there is no reason for a merchant to rent land now.. yes i have an inworld store, mainly because i have had one before i used Xstreet. Since i started selling on Xstreet and now the MP i have had my magic box in my store.. That being said.. unless you are lucky enough to have a friend that will let you use their land or you rent land for a home, you no longer need to rent any land. why they couldnt just have a folder and have us copy the contents of the magic box inrto it and have NOTHING change in the MP i dont know. they have caused a huge clusterbomb with this. and again we are held responsible by the general SLer. when can we expect our 2 days of commission free selling this time?
  22. Rival Destiny wrote: I was thinking about what is in store for me to make this change over to DD for my MP store. First I have to install a viewer that will accomodate the new DD system, then I have to follow the procedure to change over my magic boxes to folders in my inventory. Then I started to wonder about all the thousands and thousands of products on the MP and what kind of impact is this going to have on the inventory servers? Has LL poinied up & purchased new serviers to take up the slack here or am I not understanding how our inventory is stored. I'm concerned about not only inventory loading but also the present inventory tree that we now have. Is there any plans in place to improve upon the system as it is? And number of items we have in invetory which grows each day. Right now I store things in boxes, in world, alts etc. Am considering the impact on my own inventory and wonder what other's thoughts are in this regard. I don't understand what the issue is with upgrading your viewer.. Did you complain when they added mesh and we had to upgrade? Are you saying that you don't have a copy of each and every item you sell in your inventory? If so, that sounds like a bad idea in the making.. what if your magic box gets eaten by LL? I have a copy of my magic box inventory in a folder and a copy that is boxed. All i had to do was drag the folder into the Merchants outbox. I would hope that everyone has a copy of their items.... Personally i think it is a stupid idea from LL standpoint. Now there is absolutely ZERO reason for a merchant to rent land.
