  1. Well, at least the 'see item in...' thing is updated more often than the inworld store link. I prefer to shop inworld whenever possible, so you can imagine the disappointment I feel when I see such a link only to find a not-store. Even worse is when there's still a inworld store, but the merchant did not update the link.
  2. Well, the Linden Realms crystal thing just got fixed. Something must have been urpy serverside.
  3. Well, I got the BJD Lance head, which is around 1500. It does work as a lady head at a pinch. Then again, most male head skins look a little funny on it, so I'm looking at either the Adam or one of the cheaper AK heads (maybe the Cole, if only the nose sliders weren't so damn sensitive). I'm currently avoiding Catwa out of sheer principle, and I'd only bend on the Maitreya ladybody only when BoM is on Firestorm.
  4. It only looks that way if the only places you go to are the popular clubs, and the only place you shop is the Marketplace. Actual exploring reveals a wider variety.... that still leans towards sexy. Hey, at least ladies *have* variety.
  5. People are gonna feel a little leery of such pages because there's been a few personal fundraising scams lately.
  6. What? There's a Ruth 2.0? Isn't Ruth something we usually try to cover up? I've took a break around '15 and came back late '17. I am adjusting though.
  7. Yeah, and I think it's not as popular as it used to be. But it is mod, so certain communities will glom on it. They do have thier own limits though, like Omega incompatability and smaller aftermarkets (clothing for Kuroo, for example, has maybe 2-3 clothing makers, and one of them is the creator). I am a bit more optimistic about BoM. Sure as beans not using it for clothes, but there are a few nice skins and tatts that I want to use again.
  8. Yeah it is. I'm not sure how popular it is nowadays though, what with the Kemono, Kuroo, not to mention the more mainstream bodies.
  9. This is my pain right now. I bought a Signature Geralt at the last sale, then I searched the MP. I swear to gods, it's nothing but T-shirts and board shorts as far as the eye can see. I'm hoping it's because of how new the body is, but I'm holding off on wearing it for awhile (that and I seem to crash more often when I wear it). At least there's enough out there that a guy can get away with just mesh head, hands, and sometimes feet. It feels like the system female body is effectively extinct these days. And it don't help that there's one ladybody dominating the market right now.
  10. Holy catfish! That was my first non-starter too (2010 rezdate).
  11. Nobody's sight is that good. I'm more busy trying to load the place and hoping that there aren't too many overly complex mesh bodies because then my graphics card will choke. Gods, I need a new rig.
  12. Okay, got the Geralt. Now, who makes clothes for it?
  13. Well, I do have a question about the Geralt. Can you turn the nipples off? I tried the demo the other day and used a Omega applier on it. I swear to gods the nipples on the skin and the nipples on the body didn't match up at all.
  14. I'll just leave this here: Tv Tropes: Fanwork Ban
  15. Nope. In fact, let's just shake my inventory and see what comes out.
  16. I think we are all missing one key thing here: Gatchas in Second Life are ENTIRELY user-created. LL has nothing to do with them, as we all know how hands-off they are with creators. They are NOT a innate part of the game. Hell, I doubt the lawmakers have even HEARD of Second Life. The Belgium law was made to deal with AAA DEVELOPERS who had let the lootbox thing get this bad in the first place, the guys who tied in-game progress with thier lootboxes until the outcry grew big enough that they backtracked. The EAs and Activisions, those kind of game companies. Can we stop panicking now?
  17. Gyazos, and MP stuff I can't find inworld.
  18. That law was made more for the big gaming companies. They aren't gonna look at our sorry butts.
  19. Also Regan was a state governor, which has got to be the closest thing to political entry-level job. What we got now doesn't even have that, and boy does it show.
  20. Take the low lag avatar for the current year's Fantasy Faire Completely defeat the purpose by slathering on several mesh parts, including head Okay, so the pic quality ain't so hot, my rig's getting on in years.
  21. I turn it on during certain shindigs, but I have my music off otherwise. Otherwise I'd have to explain why I was playing, say, country music, or have to put up with the more ear-grating genres of electronica.
  22. Just curious, has anyone tried to bequeath thier account in thier will?
  23. Furry hate in SL seems to be proportionate to the furry hate on the rest of the internet. Nowadays, about the only places where the furry hate seems to be prevalent are places where people feel a need to have some group to look down thier noses at in order to make themselves feel good (such as sites whose name begins in a number and ends with 'chan'.) Nowadays I start to feel that female system avatars are the pariah these days, since in order to even wear clothes at all, it feels like you need a mesh body.
  24. I was there when mesh hit. It was a interesting time, having to switch back to the official viewer until Firestorm updated, and having someone ask why I was a donut when I was wearing a freebie werewolf Avi. I miss copy/mod hair, which I not only adjusted for different heads, but also took out sculpt lumps for, say, hats or masks, shuffled them around for hairstyles I couldn't find, et al. I don't miss having to shuffle a gazillion prims for each body (seriously, my Clothing folder has a resize section, for each avi I've ever put clothes on). And gods help you if it's no-copy, if I buy clothes from Bare Rose, I only buy the mesh ones because they don't need adjusting. I am thrilled to see how far makers can go in designing new avatars. I don't think the little manticore is even possible pre-mesh with out a lot of AO and sculpt fumbling that could break with a spot of lag or sitting on the wrong thing. I am not thrilled with the forced conformity of the more human avatars, starting with the Standard Sizing, which is notoriously unkind to those who wanted thier guy bodies to be a bit more slim, up to the mesh body market where it's now impossible to find clothes for the lady system body (especially with one ladybody dominating the market, causing the lazier content creators to make stuff ONLY for that body). At least you can still find stuff for the classic guy avatar. You know, I worried about not getting a decent avatar simply by shaking my inventory and seeing what pops out, but I made something new the other day, so I stopped worrying.
  25. Huntnut and freebie freak. 117k. I trying to trim it down, really.
