[Last names nearly here - and more. Yay!]

Avatar age is the most visible form of -- yes, artificial,  silly and meaningless -- status in-world. Last names have always been the dividing line between old and new. That won't change of course because everyone will know we didn't earn them! TONGUE FIRMLY IN CHEEK. It's really not that important and I'm not hurt over it.  But I will pay. 

I think it depends how much significance you give it. I personally never thought of myself as higher status because i happen to have a last name. In fact i have always wanted to get rid of it.

yay for the increased MP fees... NOT

My favorite sweets seasonal or not - is Belgian chocolate Cote d'Or . It has an authentic taste and contains real cocoa instead of palm oil.

It shouldn't matter how you look or what lifestyle you are in, you should be able to enjoy the grid without the abuse like everyone else. I am getting sick and tired of seeing this all the time, and you have a bunch of people who will join in on it. Take a few seconds to learn about lifestyles or certain looks, instead of being so ignorant and bullying them to the point they are scared to even be themselves. This is what happened to furries, and they went into hiding for many years.

Yes i wish they would accept us anywhere, unfortunately i need to change to more adult look when i go to a place like Muddys, but i don't go there too often.

New pet peeve, the need to tell people they need to look a certain way. When SL has always been about your world, your imagination. People are quick to judge others, unless you look, think and act like them. So basically if you have a system avatar, if you are into Kawaii, if your avatar is Maitreya and any other Bodies, that are not Hourglass, Freya or now Legacy. And you have to be unrealistically curvy. And with men, it's basically you can have any body, however, you have to be a giant and muscular. Like who the heck cares how others look, it is not harming them. So stop being so judgemental, and tearing people down. It drives me bonkers, especially with how people are on the bandwagon to attack people in the Kawaii lifestyle these days.

that is so true. Ive always liked kawaii but thankfully i was never attacked in sl so far but i know people who have. People have forgotten about the motto of SL.  Also depends which sims you hang out at. One of my favorites is Chouchou and are mostly japanese people who hang out there and they understand the kawaii lifestyle.

   I find it quite natural to get curious - if I notice that my picture is sandwiched between two with 5 ish 'likes' more than mine, it makes one wonder which people find one's pictures unworthy. When it happens more than once, it's not that hard to connect a few dots and see the patterns at play. Shrugs.

   It's not really a big deal. I know my taste isn't for everyone, and that I'm not universally loved by everyone - nothing wrong with that. But I've been on this thread for ages, and one of the reasons I've been told by new people that they don't like to post in this thread is the disproportionate distribution of likes, fearing that they won't be as accepted as the 'veterans'. Whilst this is often untrue, as it generally seems first-time-posters receive praise in plenty, I could see how a lurker might go up and down a page noticing the sometimes quite significant differences and wondering if they'll end up at the bottom of the barrel.

Why would fewer likes mean they are at the bottom of the barrel?  I personally don't care how many likes i get cause i am not posting for  the "likes". Are they so low self esteem they need to turn this into a battle of popularity? I am not on forums often enough to give a like to every picture that is being posted. And sometimes good talent both in RL & SL is being overshadowed by someone who is more "loud and outspoken". It's a fun thread and i hope it wont be spoiled by this. For most ppl taking pics is a nice hobby and something they enjoy doing.

[A question for catwa head users.]

i like Catwa but theres no HD layer on it and they said it would require to redo the whole UV map for the head and Catwa isnt going to do it, sadly.

And what bias would that be, hmm?

I'll answer that for you: My bias is for the truth of the matter. Reality.

There is no "hate" involved in my responses - at all. That you appear to think otherwise is a very clear indicator of just how invested you are and how much said investment has blinded you to what anyone has actually said.

Go on back, read the thread, read what was actually said and do take note that I (and a few others you're lumping together with your statement) have explicitly stated we hope HL can remain, that we liked what we saw and wish the creator the best.

Oh but wait - actually seeing and understanding that would ruin your narrative, wouldn't it?

ohh i might not be as invested as you are invested in this thread by sitting here all day and posting replies every 5 mins. anyhow i am done arguing here. Still gonna cross fingers for the sims to stay. Peace out

Your attitude helps no one - at all. On top of that your bias is showing quite clearly.

and your bias isnt showing? seriously i can't understand all the hate and suspicion that is aimed at Dhejann. But haters gonna hate , meanwhile donations keep raising up everyday.
