Is there a viewer that will run with XP?

In my years on SL, I'd never before sold a piece of mainland; when I was getting ready to, few months ago, for the first time, I came in here and asked exactly what to do. Qie Niangao gave me the exact instructions he gave here. All went perfectly and haven't been billed since, and I DID change my land holding to zero on the website. It works if you do it right.

((((JUMMMPPPPYYYYY!!!!!!)))) I'm so glad to see you! :matte-motes-big-grin: I de-noobified myself, live and learn, trial and error..... Back on 2007, you rezzed on Help Island, got your torch, and left, pretty much. My RL son told me about SL, but he was busy with his girl, his prim babies, etc so I pretty much learned on my own. Still here, look pretty good for my age!

Is possible he respects elders? Virtual Ability recently concluded a class for seniors, honestly, those were the coolest people ever. Normally, I am rather an isolationist in SL, but these folks, I enjoyed immensely. They caught on quickly to the tech stuff, and were the most interesting people ever, to just stand and chat with.

Good grief dude, another alias, this one slipped past..... You still messing with Scylla, leave her alone! I don't get out much anymore, never paid attention to 'this' author. Do carry on, with your particular brand of whateva whateva.... (was that grammatically correct?) I stay in my lane. And while you're at it, have a blessed and beautiful day! :matte-motes-big-grin:

Oh; I hadn't realized that, because, I don't know him. He's not on my friends list. So, if what you said is true, then, I amend my answer to........ "I don't care'? :matte-motes-bored: If what you say is not true, then.....I still don't care? LOL
-
No. Outside of an occasional group related activity, while I love SL I prefer my own company, to do my own thing, or leave, as I see fit. Very short 'Friend' list. Been here a long time, and it's always been that way. Often uncheck everyone, so I can go about my business, or entertainment, without being IM'd. I'm an isolationist in RL too, so, *shrug*. I'm good with it. The few that have remained 'Friends' with me for 8 years in SL, know and understand this quirk, and apparantly they're good with it too. Easy peasy.

That's a really interesting question, and I am betting the answer is NO but am following all the same. The reason I'd expect it to be no, is that doing that would impact the OTHER half of the sim you're trying to create...... the half outside the for sale part. LL would have to reconfigure the entire area to accomodate that, even if that next door sim was entirely empty (in which case, you'd probably just abandon your current half sim, and go buy the whole sim next door....... lol convoluted but interesting.

Please feel free to join SLBA (Second Life Bar Association). There was just, very recently, a presentation on copyright issues; Many members, though not all, are real life attorneys, with a presence in SL; The legal sim is 'Justitia', attorneys have offices on the upper level of the sim and the lower lever is residential. Feel free to visit, leave a notecard if you have specific questions, and attend the monthly meeting on the 2nd Saturday of each month at 10am SL time. If you are a RL attorney, many of the presentations also have CLE credit, (Continued Legal Education). The SLBA current president is Maryland RL attorney Tim Faith (SL Name Yoss Kamachi) if you have specific questions.

The media? Why would the media care that some avatar in Second Life is being role played without permission? What media?

I don't have much of a RL social life; most of that is probably my fault, I'm an isolationist; so when I come to SL, I take my friends there, the people I have met, and learned to care for, very seriously. Just as I would if we were RL friends. Friends are friends; and are to be taken seriously. (BTW, in the olden SL days, I used to actually care if someone violated my 'privacy', banning people if I caught them using my bed, etc, LOL I no longer care at all, and actually don't even have houses on my land; I have a couple private places in the sky to change but I don't care anymore who comes on my virtual land.) Maybe it's something you grow out of? It's the people I am serious about.

Thanks Medhue, for the YouTube vid with captions. Kinda like a transcript! Still waiting for official responses on my questions re transcripts, although I'm sure it's still too soon.
-
Trying to find out for you ,and will post here when I do. (Transcript)

Thanks Qie; that actually worked, it DID let me reset it, to zero. I have no group contributions at this time, and it reflects that. So, It will bill me for this last time due, end of March (for me it's the 28th of the month) and that should be it. Thanks!

It's nice that you enjoyed Ebbe Linden's talk today. There's a whole calendar of VWBPE events, do you have that? For the remainder of this week. It's an education conference that is annual. Virtual Ability also does IDRAC, (International Disabiltiy Rights Affirmation Conference) annually as well.
Last night, Virtual Ability also hosted a panel talk on the movie "Log In 2 Life', which was made a few years back, featuring Stroker (hmmm his last name escapes me, Serpentine?' and our Virtual Ability founder, Gentle Heron. 2 very different people, different lifestyles, both RL and SL; talking about their lives, and how virtual worlds enhances them. Gentle is wheelchair bound, one of my favorite scenes showed her, in RL, driving her wheelchair down the street, with her avatar, Gentle Heron, dancing along in the air behind her. I think that scene will stick in my head forever. The discussion was streamed in live from NYC, where folks in RL watched the movie and talked with the panel, and those of us in the audience, on Virtual Ability Island, in SL.
None of this is RP, or gaming in any way, it's just people connecting. Again, glad you enjoyed Ebbe Linden today! Let me know if you need the VWBPE calendar of events.

Hello,
I should know this, and am sure I used to, but can't remember. I know someone here can refresh me on how this works. I just sold a mainland parcel that I've owned since 2007. I'm Premium. I've been paying at a 2048 rate, of $15.00 per month for the land. So now, I have none. If I recall, I stil can get a free 512 if I want, but how soon can/do I change the land management cost on the website? If I'm not mistaken, this is March, so I will still be charged the $15 for March..... is it an automatic update after that or at what point does/can it change, and do I change it? I don't think I can change it yet, right, because the sale just happened today. Thanks so much!

I remember my 'first inworld Linden', way back in 2009 or so, he was working on some abandoned land in Whitesun where I 'still' have a parcel. I was like you, WOW, a LINDEN! We exchanged pleasantries, nice weather we're having, haha. I didn't go after him with a bunch of stuff, just said hi and let him get on with his work. It was a simple, pleasant interaction.

7 years, 6 months, 3 days and 2 hours. LOL I still love SL, and like Freya, still wear the occasional box on my head just for fun. I am very much a loner and so don't really notice less, or more people; I'm by myself unless involved in a Virtual Ability community activity; I own a few land parcels, both mainland and estate, and still have fun 'doing stuff' on them, and setting up things, I used to care about 'privacy', now I don't. Used to trip if I caught a stranger in my bed, now I know how to kick, send home and ban if I care enough at the moment. It's easier, less obsessive. I still log in daily. So yes while it's probably changed, 'my' SL hasn't changed that much, and I'm fine with that. :matte-motes-bashful-cute:

It doesn't 'matter'. But...... it's the topic of this thread..... right? One of the possibilities being, celebrities in RL paying LL for use of their RL names in SL?
-
I think that's why for example, Yoko Ono is 'really' Yoko Ono'. If she's still in SL that is, but the RL Yoko Ono actually had the name.

DaisyBlue Heffernan name missing?

She's gone from my list too, Benson. I guess LL did it, I certainly didn't. A true loss, on a personal, and a world level. Have you been to the memorial reading room we have for her, on Health Info Island? I can't get inworld right now, but IM Gentle Heron, tell her I sent you and she'll give you the LM to it, or you can just go over there and find it. It's a very comforting spot, and she would have just loved it. Sorry for your loss of DaisyBlue, she was special, in any life.
