Looking to turn your sl world into an MMORPG?
Magnek Fang replied to BrittanyNicoleSteuart's topic in Role Play
If I wanted to include a MMO element to my SL, I'd grab one of those lifestyle/crafting games in which people can join in when THEY want, even if most of these are Linden sinks. I've played Xeolife for a bit, and I'd buy that Needs HUD for my less human forms as soon as I find out whether or not I can turn off the bladder (or maybe not, it's 950l). As for these vampgames, I'd think that there enough of a Bloodlines community that they no longer need to recruit newbies (still gonna be a Linden drain though), the Hunger may or may not be dying, and Progeny and Angels & Demons are free but invite only, and only the latter has a public destination. Makes you wonder. -
anyone else sick of the new "norm"
Magnek Fang replied to Maverick Bowenford's topic in General Discussion
Wait a bit, aren't Femdom and Findom seperate things, or am I confused? Help? I'm scared of AFK, because I don't want to risk my account because some griefer was bored and determined enough to switch to a kid avatar, then have a alt screenshot and AR the results. BBC, on the other hand, it makes me wonder how many of both the guys and the girls are actually white guys, particularly those who belong to a certain internet demograph who use chicken clucking as thier go-to insult, and have the audacity call furries perverts, when it's very obvious that they are obsessed with a particular fetish to the point that it's the origin of said insult. -
Everything comes off when taking only ONE thing off.
Magnek Fang replied to Scully Munster's topic in Your Avatar
I'd say ditto on the multiple region crossings. I've played GTFO for a few hauls and had several things fly off my body when I took off the HUD. And yeah, it was my pants at least once. -
Is "roleplaying" in non-RP areas really that bad?
Magnek Fang replied to Gopi Passiflora's topic in Role Play
Yeah, I think I'll be avoiding vore from now on, yeesh. I do remember saying no permadeath in my profile tank gods. -
WARNING loser making the rounds in sl giving ppl viruses or something else?
Magnek Fang replied to Quinn Lysette's topic in General Discussion Forum
I'm pretty sure you can't get a virus from a gift card. Still won't trust it though, just to be on the safe side. -
Is height Synonymous with age?
Magnek Fang replied to ClaraBarton's topic in General Discussion Forum
The fact that this has come back up shows it's still a issue. I've had to buy a chest for the Kemono out of fear of being mistaken for a kid. And quite a few people still lump anime avatars and child avatars in the same basket :/. So yeah.... -
What turned me off from Aesthetic was the fact that it uses *9* 1024s, including one for the *toenails*, though going bara furry does mitigate that. Also, I'm not into the musclely types, I like my manbodes to be a bit slimmer.

What are some of your pet peeves?
Magnek Fang replied to IvyLarae's topic in General Discussion Forum
Here's just a few: Firestorm choking when I'm in a non-Tiny crowd to the point where I have to set rendering to 'friends only' in crowded shopping events just so that I can function (and so that the viewer would render the vendors instead of some tiny piece of jewelry some lady halfway across the sim is wearing). The fun little GTFO minigame: Seeing how much of me flies off when I take off the HUD. The constant terror of being accused of being a child avatar whenever I'm wearing a default head kemono. Having to buy a Maitreya in order to wear clothes at all. The scarcity of male clothes for mainstream male bodies that aren't Modern Casual (or as some put it: What your Dad thinks is cool.) Firestorm taking a few minutes to boot up when the texture cache is big enough. The explosion of Gatcha rezable objects (as in will get lost in a server hiccup). Events on top of events, with a side dish of events (and you wonder why a lot of creators are plundering Turbosquid these days?) -
Yeah, I didn't think Sansar would be a thing when VRChat exists.

About the only reason I've wanted SL on Steam is because Steam has prepaid cards and I could use the steambux to buy more stuff. Nowadays, with things like Tumblr's adult content ban, I'm not so sure.

Men Not Liking Men: The Shocking Truth about Male-Pattern Loneliness in SL!
Magnek Fang replied to Scylla Rhiadra's topic in General Discussion Forum
Right, I've been both genders and I havn't really noticed any real difference in how I'm treated. In my older days I've been hit on as either gender, and nowadays I either wander all over the place, or chill with tinies. Anyways, there really shouldn't be any difference in how the two genders interact, and I know that toxic masculinity is a thing (hell, Gamergate is just a symptom). Then again it's not a good idea to assume that one gender or another is a monolith. For one, you'd never know who's behind the screen. -
Well, it's reassuring to know that I wasn't the only one with nasty lag issues.

Well, at least the summer thing had the boxes up on time

To much Hatred! Something wrong!
Magnek Fang replied to Angela Levenque's topic in Lifestyles and Relationships
First off, the snubbing of a particular avatar type is in no way comparable to the (still) all to real problems of racism and the rise of Neo-Nazis we have been experiencing lately. Have a tiny bit of perspective. Second, the furry hate (and the drama) predates Second Life, I don't know how far back though. Nowadays, there's about two kinds of haters: those who only know about the fandom from mainstream media (which has never been kind to fringe subcultures) and those who have blindly let themselves be influenced by 4chan. Third, for roleplay sims it's generally easier to place a blanket ban of furries than have to explain to every neon-colored fox why they are not gonna fit in a historical roleplay. Finally, both the Internet and SL are bigger places than you think. Club bans you, go somewhere else. Store bans you, they must not like money. -
Worked on another look.
