Hi Panic, The decision to allow you the ability to sell Lindens is not only age related. Have you set up your payment method? Have you purchased lindens using your payment Method? Have you purchased anything using this Avatar? The more you use Lindens the more active your account is and the more normal credit & payment activity you have on file to affect the decision making process that Linden Lab uses to decide when, during the 8 to 27 days old period, you get the opportunity to sell Lindens at the default limits. We discussed this in detail at this earlier response to you.: http://community.secondlife.com/t5/Linden-Dollars-L/Negative-and-Positive-avatar/qaq-p/1567527/comment-id/5423#M5423 P.S. - Panic, if you can not set up a permanent payment method, then you'll be able to sell / convert Lindens to USDs sometime in the next 8-27 days at Linden Lab's discretion, Here is another problem, If you sell Lindens on the LindX, the proceeds create a positive USD [uS$] balance with Linden Lab. Without a payment method on file how do you plan to use the USDs? Your Linden Lab USD account balance may be used to pay Region and Land Use Tiers. If you were planning on transferring your Linden Lab USD balance to a real world account, the easiest thing to do is to set up a PayPal account. You may also try to use a 3rd party Linden Exchange to convert Lindens into real world cash. You do this at your own risk. Linden Lab is not responsible for any issues you have using a 3rd party Linden Exchange to convert your Lindens. Nothing is wrong with the Linden Lab Risk-API - Linden Lab has not granted you the ability to sell Lindens yet. Any attempt to sell Lindens before you have a Linden Sell Limit established will come back from the Risk-API as "No"

You are so very welcome. I used to fear texturing now I enjoy making them when time allows. Learning Texturing allowed me understand the relationship of the X,Y,Z coordinate orientation and it's importance to building more than any other lesson or experience in SL. I'm grateful now that I loved Algebra and Geometry in school. Oh feel free to "Accept" the answer if it solves your question. I'll send you LM's to my fave Texture Stores when I get home from work.

Chloe, Welcome to SecondLife's very own FaceBook-like social media system. Basically someone found you interesting and wanted to follow your future postings to your https://my.secondlife.com/ page. And - No, you are not being "Stalked". As a DJ I get a few people who do this rather than asking me to be friends or join my group. That's fine with me. Go take a peek at your page and see the new features that allow you to share your SecondLife with the world. You may also review your My.Secondlife.com settings and change them the following link: https://my.secondlife.com/settings/profile

Rosa, If you bought an outfit or other items that are No Transfer you can not give it away to your friend, regardless of your original intent. If you bought an object like furniture, your friend can allow you to rez it on their property and they can use it but in many cases they will not have access to the "Owner" menu for that object. You may also give them edit rights to your objects, but that gives them edit rights to ALL your objects rezzed in-world.

Selene, Have you looked to see if there is activity in the group today or yesterday: Group dividends and liabilities A group may receive income, for example if it sells an object deeded to the group or rents out group-owned land. Such income is referred to as a group dividend. Group dividends are distributed equally among all group members who have the Pay group liabilities and receive group dividends ability associated with their role. Likewise, all group liabilities are also spread evenly among group members with this ability. If no one else in the group has this ability, then group liabilities and dividends are paid to the group's owner. If there are no enabled accounts in the group that have the Pay group liabilities and receive group dividends ability, then liabilities and dividends are spread evenly between group members. The following video tutorial explains group liabilities. http://vimeo.com/4243252 If you have activity and the payments have not been dispersed you need to open up a Trouble Ticket since this is an expected feature. https://support.secondlife.com/create-case/ If you are a Premium member, you might also want to open up a Live Chat session: https://support.secondlife.com/start-chat/

Alexa, Textures are such fun - I have spent hours having toying with them to get them "Just So". Basically a texture is just a graphic image that you may apply to a face of a prim or to any and all of it's sides. Depending on the type of texture you have created and how it's edges are designed and aligned you can get a wonderful effect by controlling the: o Offset [both horizontal & Vertical] o Repeats/Meter [both horizontal & Vertical]] o Orientation [Rotation, and Horizontal & Vertical [ ] flipping] Play with these options on the Edit / Texture tab with just the face you want to adjusted selected. Also, beware of the urge to just hit the Apply button. It has a mind of it's own and will read the values specified and try to calculate the "intended" changes with "interesting" results. The default orientation you are experiencing comes from when we build and create the basic prims we use. For instance, sometimes we forget that a cube has a specific X, Y, Z orientation and six sides, each with a unique identification and texture orientation. We typically will remember this after we try to hollow out one and the hollow is not visible because we rotated the cube to suit our needs and not to maintain a specific x,y,z orientation. This also happens when we stretch a prim to size it for our needs. The texture settings change automatically along with our efforts even if no texture is applied. We tend to notice the end result after we apply a texture to a prim face. So remember to reset a prim face's texture settings to what you want to start with [my usual starting point is [1 x 1] and I let the texture options calculate the repeats per meter - then I adjust the proportions of the texture to the desired visual proportion for my needs - then correct the orientation & offset - then adjust the repeats to duplicate the texture on the side of the prim to the proportions of the other build sides. Repeat on each joined prim face till done. Remember, understanding the relationship of decimal notation to the object size can be very useful in making these adjustments quickly. Also, not all textures are created equal. Pictures of images we like that we import my not repeat well because the "edges" are not designed to align with or color match with the opposite side. I don't believe we are allowed to recommend a specific SL Business in our replies but I'm sure you will be privately messaged with recommendations.

Minikk, What is the native language for you and your friends? Are you looking for someone who is bi-lingual? ¿Cuál es la lengua materna para ti y tus amigos? ¿Estás buscando a alguien que es bilingüe? Quelle est la langue maternelle pour vous et vos amis? Cherchez-vous quelqu'un qui est bilingue? Qual è la lingua madre per te ei tuoi amici? Siete alla ricerca di qualcuno che è bi-lingue? ^ are all the languages I can read... You may be better served by posting this question in the General Discussion topic of one of the Forums.

Freaky, I looked up your Profile and find this avatar is only a few days old - Created on June 16, 2012. Many Gaming Venues have minimum Avatar age requirements not related to your RL age.

Toshiba, Usually, the reason to sell Lindens is to have USDs on hand to pay Linden Lab expenses such as Tiers for owning Full Regions or Mainland Land Use fees. I'd keep them as Lindens until you need to convert them to USDs. If you have already sold them, they are there safe as USDs. If you want them back as Lindens, you need to buy Lindens using your USD account balance. When you sold the L$3000 you ended up with about US$11.26 after fees - Buying US$11.26 worth of Lindens will net you about L$2715 +/- 10 or so after fees. So you will have paid approximately L$300 in fees by selling the Lindens and then buying them back. Below is detailed information. Basics Selling your Lindens to convert them into USDs is very easy. The following 2 links tell you everything about managing Lindens in SecondLife. http://community.secondlife.com/t5/English-Knowledge-Base/Account-balance/ta-p/700015 and http://community.secondlife.com/t5/English-Knowledge-Base/Buying-and-selling-Linden-dollars/ta-p/700107 You may sell your Lindens from this Link. https://secondlife.com/my/lindex/sell.php This converts them to a USD Balance - or US Dollar Balance on hand. This allows you to pay for SecondLife expenses such as purchasing a full region and maintaining it via tiers both of which require a positive USD balance. This balance is there for you until you spend it or use it to purchase Lindens again. You do not receive any interest on these USDs. Buying Lindens If you have done the above already and want to return your USDs to Lindens you may Buy them back as follows: http://community.secondlife.com/t5/English-Knowledge-Base/Buying-and-selling-Linden-dollars/ta-p/700107#Section_.1.2 Unfortunately, you paid a fee to sell the Lindens in the 1st place and will pay another fee to convert them back. Therefore you will not get back the whole L$3000 - It will have been reduced by the processing fees for selling them in the 1st place and again the processing fee for purchasing Lindens from your USD Balance. Withdrawing USDs You ,may also request a transfer of these dollars [Process Credit] to any supported checking or PayPal [the preferred method] account as outlined below: Process credit (withdrawal) You may choose to withdraw your US dollar balance via PayPal or bank wire. Note: Use a bank wire only under the following circumstances:PayPal will not permit payments to your country. You are expecting payment of $10,000 or more. For instructions on setting up wire transfer payments, see Setting up process credit payments through a wire transfer. Depending on which withdrawal option you choose, you may be subject to fees and minimum withdrawal amounts. For current information on process credit requests, check out the Process Credit page on the Second Life website. To view a full history of your process credit transactions, see the Process Credit History page. Please be aware that LindeX processing through PayPal can take up to five business days (Monday-Friday, not including U.S. holidays). Bank wire payout request processing time is fifteen business days. Holidays and high transaction volume can affect processing times. Important: You must be in full compliance with the Second Life Terms of Service to receive any payment through the credit payment process. This includes, without limitation, the requirement to have accurate and complete registration information, including verifiable billing information.

Oh Good Grief... As a Second Life Peer Counselor, I was inundated with couples with relationship issues, each with chat logs [ both local and private ] with a bloody mess of messages & time stamps in them. Here is what you can depend on: 1) Fragments of chat logs are useless. [Date & Time stamps really only matter in a flowing conversation where the thread can be followed from both sides in it.] 2) Depending on what Viewer you use and the Date & Time stamp options you select and your own real world time zone and the latency of the SL Message Servers and network AND how healthy the Server is that you are standing in while chatting [You get the idea] Chat logs rarely document anything accurately with the exception of the response/reply order of a conversation. Even in that case I've witnessed in person message text delivered out of order to a single person I was chatting to. 3) The time stamping is done by the server receiving the message and passing it on to the viewer you are using. I've personally received messages tied-up in a failed attempt of the server to deliver them at next logins and several days after the original message was sent. So - If your girlfriend is mad at you...... Talk to each other! I've seen too many individuals upset for the dumbest reasons because they don't understand that SL messaging is at it's best adequate and at it's worst a room of monkeys scrambling the order messages in-flight as well as tossing a few in the trash.

To expand on Lindal's comments... "The $1.00 charge you see is actually a reservation/credit check transaction to see if the card is valid and has a positive balance." These are normal and expected activity on credit & debit cards. You accept these transactions as a matter of course in the use of normal credit & debit cards. With normal credit & debit cards they are self-reversing when the nightly account processing is performed on your behalf. In these cases the transaction is never reported on your statement. On a normal Credit or Debit account cards that charge will be reversed automatically. You may not see it reversed on the disposable non-reloading Credit & Debit cards unless you have a master account for the transaction history and monthly use logs to be processed against. Linden Research. LLC is not responsible for this charge - You are by using the Credit or Debit card.

B2, Moral of story "Leaving groups in haste without taking care of business, will bite you in the end"

Jay, Lets start with the ability to get into SL shall we. 1) Get a nice long CAT5 cable and hook up directly to the router giving you "Wired" :matte-motes-evil-invert: access to the internet. 2) Verify you can login and stay logged on while in SL. 3) If the router starts acting up and re-booting after this, you have worst issues and need to contact your ISP if they own the router and/or get the router troubleshooted if you own it. Now, if you can stay logged into SL, just locate your Current Outfit folder in your Inventory and examine what is left attached to you. Then start digging back in your inventory to re-locate your shape, skin, hair etc. and get them re-attached. BTW - I'm assuming you have downloaded the most current version of the SecondLife Viewer you prefer to use. Please include any and all additional information in you response to these suggestions like your PC, Model, Graphics Card, Router info and who your ISP is so we can try to be of further assistance.

Funk, I'm sure there is a real question there somewhere. Let's try to break things down a bit. A SecondLife Account logs into SL on a a PC accessing the internet through an assigned an IP address. That account had a Email Address associated with it. This is considered private information. You are NOT allowed to attempt to determine the private information associated with any account per the LL TOS. All you are allowed to do it to Ban and/or report Avatars you have valid issues with. If you require better access control then you need to do one of the following: 1) About Land / Access / Uncheck [ ] Allow Public Access & add the list of the allowed avatars to the Allowed Residents list. 2) Get a Security Bot and program it with the names of the allowed avatars 3) Create and Deed your parcel to a SecondLife Group, add the allowed avatars to the group and About Land / Access / check [X] Allow Group Access

Morgan, Start by looking at the Destination Guide. The link is below http://secondlife.com/destinations Pick something that looks interesting and Teleport there. If you select a Club or other social interaction gathering place, start up a conversation. It's that simple. Doing it this way while you learn the ropes of SL is best and you can look for very specific groups servicing other social interests using the Search option. If you are really new, please make sure that you have read and are familiar with the basics by following this link below: http://community.secondlife.com/t5/English-Knowledge-Base/Second-Life-Quickstart/ta-p/1087919?lang=en-US Catch you in-world!

Edward, We had a detailed discussion regarding Charity Events on this thread several weeks ago... http://community.secondlife.com/t5/Everything-Else/How-to-start-a-charity-event/qaq-p/1535283 You may find the information useful. Good Luck.
