  1. I liked her, I loved her good heart, sometimes she was misunderstood and I stood by her side, standing for the validity of her opinions, I love her passion for posting, the friendships she developed here, she was a good person.

    Mayalily, I admire you and miss you too.

  2. I would say is more liberal.

    conservative tries to retain old values, "everything was better in the old times", they try to keep an established lifestyle, liberals like progress, that society transforms constantly, they want to see what's the next difference in society is going to be, they take things that are illegal and turn them legal, in the same way, many second life users do things in SL that would be constrained in rl, they see themselves in this world with minimal rules, in comaprison with the rl environment, and transform in themselves what is illegal, or culturally constraint, into legal. they are willing to try new things, in that sense, SL people, mostly, they would be liberal.

  3. the purpose of humanity and all lifeforms is to continue the existence of the specie by leaving generations, to infinity if its possible (altought i don't think the purpose will be fulfilled, unless humanity finds a way to live in another solar system, after our sun dies), and in this purpose, is when love comes to play, it help our specie advance, by being attracted to whatever we need to survive, to our favorite foods, our favorite places, it give us a reason to continue living as much as we can, and romantic love give us a reason to leave a next generation, that's the purpose of life and love.

    happiness is a measuring tool that points out when ourselves are closer to an optimum state, our body use happiness as a reward to motivate us to continue the way we are going. we must also allow and accept fear and sorrow and anger, they are tools that warn us to separate ourselves from some things, and to defend ourselves. we must welcome all emotions, but we must strive to reach as much hapiness as we can, and care for our children so they can be healthy, fall in love, and continue with the purpose of life, to live eternally.

  4. I used to run Second Life with an Intel graphic card in an old laptop, not with all the Second Life graphics at max but it did, maybe if you download the graphic driver from here http://www.intel.com/p/en_US/support/highlights/graphics/4m you can run SL.

    the default drivers that Microsoft provides ( WDDM ) are very basic and not prepared for 3D, with the drivers provided by Intel you may be able to run SL.

  5. it seems Sansar will be a separate project from Second Life, some time ago Linden Lab decided that as a company they should have more than 1 product, so they decided to make different styles of games, probably Second Life will co exist with Sansar.

    many people have left Second Life without noticing Linden Lab, they may return some day and their account will be there, with all the things they collected at that time, Linden Lab don't close those accounts in favor for them, so they can continue from where they left.

    its true that it will be more useful if the names were divided in two strings of characters, we used to have them that way but Linden Lab decided that a single string would be better, I dont know why they decide that, I can see the inconvenience that you see, that potentially at some point in time, all usernames will be taken, and in short term, all possible word combinations can be taken.

    I was in favor of having two strings as a name, first name, last name, it allowed people to use the same name with the difference of last name, just like microsoft did when hotmail usernames got saturated, they created outlook so many usernames can be used again. hopefully, project Sansar will have 2 strings, and users would have the ability to have the same name as the first string, or last.

  6. i see my avatar as a character, as Shakespeare would see Romeo and Juliet, he decide what the characters will do based on their personalities, how they would react to certain situations, how they express themselves, the things they do is Shakespeare all the time, but he respect their personalities, respect those characters, and would never do something that they wouldn't do, in a way, they are their own lives, their backgrounds, their ideologies, they are individual persons on their own, Shakespeare is just giving them life and they react to the different scenarios that they get presented.

    an author of different characters should see his/her creattion like that, let them be themselves, just be the energy that give them life, just like J. K. Rowling know exactly how Harry Potter would react to different situations, and Stan Lee knows Spiderman so well that knows his fears, his joys, what it value most, and what is feeling at a certain moment.

    i see my avatar as an individual character, i respect his personality, as an author to a character, i sometimes dont agree with what he does, or the decisions it makes, just like many authors wouldnt agree with what a villain does. I feel i am just the source of life and let them be themselves.

    i think we feel that separation because the SL experience is so complete, with a body, a surrounding scene, events happening in real time, it has everything a character needs for development, it can be attractive to become immersive if one wish it so, Second Life is its own world, like the movie The Never Ending Story, is another place.

  7. the constant correctors are the ones who create political correctness.

    they point out that this is said wrong, this other thing is not said in the most perfect way, even little details that have nothing to do with the topic, like a typo, or they attack a minor part of the subject and make a scandal over it, a set of words that could be positioned in a better way becomes the discussion instead of the main idea...

    the constant desire to correct others take out the different possibilities, humor is not an option anymore because it may be offensive to people of certain cultures, the choices of expression gets more limited until political correctness is the only valid way.

    the self teaching method of political correctness drives the community to only express itself in the less offensive way, to evade retaliation from the correctors.

    creativity gets limited, humor becomes rare, and many side with the correctors, the winning team.

  8. It sounds fair. you can expect to be treated the way you treat others, a person who is disrespectful can not be worth of respect.

    a person who cant behave can not expect to be treated with good manners.

  9. i agree, it's bad enough that some people don't want to help, and worse that some people discourage the ones who try to help. officalnickiminaj came with the best intentions, with a giving heart, foreseeing a better future, and got bring down.

    i believe that people that wants to help like officalnickiminaj needs our support, because if we support her, it will be a step towards a better world.

  10. its worth going thru complexity to find the truth.

    you may find lots of pragmatic people in second life, that's why i don't recommend that you present yourself immediately as an angel, you may need to present evidence, since believing in angels require faith, a belief without evidence, you may be seen as a liar, and i dont think that thats your objective. in fact you may not claim at all that you are an angel, there is no need to in order to help people, maybe you expect that the image of angel would make people feel that you are sacred, but that would be boasting your intentions to help.

    Jeremiah 9:23 "Thus saith the LORD, Let not the wise man glory in his wisdom, neither let the mighty man glory in his might, let not the rich man glory in his riches" - King James Bible

    its enough for me that you believe i am a second life user, since i have an account that can write in the forums of the website secondlife.com

     

  11. i could, but faith requires granting crediblity to something as a choice, not because of a conclusion based on the evidence presented, is an unreasonable belief, a reasonable belief would be that the analysis of the evidence we have access to, points out to a certain undeniable conclusion, faith is to grant total credibility to something that doesn't have enough proof, because believing such thing would make us feel better.

  12. if you want to help people in second life go for it, but you don't need to claim that you are an angel, maybe you do it to create a certain feel of trust, of good intentions, you add some holiness aura to your intention to help so others trust you better, you may percieve angels like that according to your culture and how you would see an angel, but here we are a multi cultural community, multi beliefs, where angels may not be revered, respected, believed, and you portraying the image of an angel don't give the impression fo someone excellently good, it gives the impression of someone lying from the start, to people that don't believe in angels, or someone a bit crazy, a non trustable person, so the image you are trying to portray backfires.

    try to be more standard, multi cultural, instead of claiming to be character of a certain culture that inspires you with good thoughts, just say that you are a human with good intentions that would like to help if anyone wants some help in something.

  13. kudos to you for having the intention to help people, many users need it, as much as anyone can help them with, some may need more help than we can give them, but as long as you do what you can, that is what counts.

    don't get discouraged because of some opposing opinions, you have the spirit of help and there are people that need your help, so focus in them, here in this part of second life improvements has been made thru time, many people have found what they are looking for, an answer from technical to emotional, if you can bring an idea to improve the help, is welcomed.

    keep that helping spirit up, the people that need help will he grateful for that.

  14. I really hope that Linden Lab takes care of your case and ban, block or do anything they can to help you, no one deserve to be harrassed, another thing you can do is to call Linden Lab on the phone, sometimes abuse reports can take a long time to get read, because there might be other abuse reports before yours, and by using the phine you get an immediate response of what steps Linden Lab is gonna take next, a clarification of the situation.
