Hi all,
I have come across this group and full sim dedicated to : "watch her die as you *****".
uh huh, how did you find this place and group? What were you looking for?
1 hour ago, AshaShanti said:I am totally shocked that there are people out there that would find this fun and entertaining.
fair enough
In RL this would be considered seriously sick and unacceptable.
But this is not RL.
Should this be considered as mere "roleplay" and be accepted.
Yes, because that's all it is.
The group already has 500 members
That's irrelevant
- it is saddening to know that someone ( actually at least 500 members ) glorifies suffering this way.
People are kinky and weird; welcome to the world.
People often tend to join groups without thinking at all what it is about
Do they? Proof?
- the more members this group has the more "normal" it becomes to consider this entertainment and fun.
500 is a pretty small group in sl, and you should provide something to back up this claim.
I have been in SL for 10 years running various creative projects and communities, and in RL I have been running a non profit for 10 years as well
That's admirable, but also irrelevant.
- I am aware how a project can influence the minds and hearts of people and all those that decide to create a sim, project, group of any sort should be aware of their responsibilities and the influence they have on the minds of their members.
This isn't 'a project'. It's a kink group, and safe to assume that anyone joining knows what it is and anyway, they can leave if they lose interest or don't like it.

Put the whole lot into a box; list the items and their permissions in the description on the marketplace listing.

The store could have moved - have you tried a search in world for the seller?

I bought a skin, but I was sent a different version of the skin than the version that I purchased. The owner doesn't seem to be an active user. Is it possible for me to get my lindens back?
Probably not, if the seller is no longer active in sl. Did you purchase in world or on marketplace? If on marketplace, check to see if there is an in world store, or a sales/service rep. If in world perhaps there is a group for the store where you can ask.

They look like very old sculpt shoes and will have a built in invisiprim. I expect that your new computer runs ALM which is why the invisiprims no longer work. Even if you disable the advanced lighting in preferences these shoes will appear to most residents as they do in the picture you supplied.
Very few shoes are being made for the classic avatar feet now, as nothing can be done about the cankles, and alphas don't always give a good enough effect. Also there just isn't a big enough market for them. I'd bite the bullet and get mesh feet or a mesh body with feet. Your footwear choices will be so much better.

So my friend said he put in an order for $1,000,000L to /$1.00 Usd....he said it would take 14 days to fulfill....I am skeptical about this, I was wondering how far have you stretched the lindex? What is the biggest Linden / usd difference you have used and actually gotten money from it? How does it work? Will said friend actually get paid out or will he simply be waiting for forever?
He'll be waiting forever. One million linden dollars is over US$3,500. So, your friend is going to be disappointed.

Sorry you're having issues, Sommerland; I was just in world unpacking and sorting some stuff and didn't have any issues. SL can be strange, and oftentimes a few people will experience these problems when the world is running smoothly for others. I always try a few different regions and a relog or three to see if that helps. Sometimes I just go to bed and all is well on the morrow. I hope this gets resolved for you and your friends soon

What's your source for the statement that it's the second most popular mesh body on SL?
It could be this: https://undergroundsl.com/2017/09/23/mesh-body-survey-results-2017/
Although it looks like the Slink Hourglass is actually second, by a short head

Ah but I explained a couple posts up how these types of sims are like a template that I modify for customers, meshing or convex-hulling if needed/desired. I've run into quite a few people who do not want mesh for various reasons though. Old PC's, experience with previous mesh they hated. So best I rez out as prims and tweak to the customer specification.
Most mesh builds don't look hugely different from prim builds except if you examine them closely and see the (possible) increased level of detail. After all, a plain prim block and a plain mesh block are identical to the naked eye
. There's no advantage at all to using mesh when an 'old school' prim will do an identical job, and a flat floor is a flat floor! Mesh naturally looks so much better when architectural details are added: cornicing, skirtings, mouldings, organic shapes and so on.
It was more the textures and associated effects (normal maps, specular maps and so on) that make it look dated. If these have been similarly updated then possibly updating the listing with newer pictures would give a more accurate representation of how the build looks now? As you say, it is very rare to find full sim builds at all, so you'd do yourself a great disservice by not showing how it looks in mesh with updated texturing.
Honestly I think adding a new listing showing the build in mesh (where applicable|) and with new textures would be worthwhile. And your previous customers would probably be delighted to receive an updated version too.

Why would that keep you from buying it?
Ah, you have updated the listing now
I think that having 'xstreet' in the description would have suggested that the product has been available since way back when that was the name for what we now call SL Marketplace. That would make it very much a pre mesh item and possibly slightly heavier in land impact than other, newer designs, and less likely to make full use of normal and specular mapping, windlight effects and so forth. But Joe seems to like it, so perhaps he will soon be the owner of a new Mediterranean sim?

Grow a thicker skin? Let's just go with this a little further, supposedly someone were to rape you on SL, would you grow a thicker skin and laugh it off because it's not actually rape.
Well you can be raped in SL - if you WANT to be raped. Otherwise you can't. There are special places to go for that sort of malarkey. Of course, as you say, it's not actually rape, just as it was not actually a dragon, or fire, just particles and pixels. We're all just particles and pixels down here......

Alright. I give in. What brought this on?
Lemme see. I do know of one possible source.
Someone asked a question (it had to do with how a child avatar is defined). There were some assumptions made by the questioner, not without reason, but inaccurately as it turned out. The OP was given several polite explanations, some possibly with a touch of asperity maybe, but without any malice. As I say, the original assumptions were not without basis. At some point, someone else offered the opinion that these answers were intended to be unkind and hurtful to the OP. Later still, someone else with godmod powers pulled some of the comments.
The thread also contained some decidedly amusing examples of the apparent ages of various avatars, using a jolly little program freely available on these interwebs.

Without being able to see the original starting post in its original fullness, this thread makes no sense for late comers.
/me goes reading other threads... (psst... the first replier should always quote the starting post completely. Thanks.

You're quite right, and in future I shall do that xxxxx

Height has nothing to do with an avatar's intended age, even though there are places that use height as a metric to determine intended age.
If an avatar has an adult profile, ie: one that does not describe them as children or preteens then we assume that they are presenting as adults and may go wherever they please.
Some mesh heads may have a very youthful appearance, but this in and of itself is no indicator that the resident is playing as a child.
Child avatars can be in some mature/non PG sims so long as they are not in immediate proximity to overtly sexual equipment or activities, and are not themselves engaged in such activities.

As a retailer, who has tried many malls, I am over malls.
Yup, this. There's just no point at all if you have a main store already. There really is no such thing as passing trade in SL except at events which is where most people find new brands. Malls attached to clubs are particularly awful and pointless because of the inevitable lag. If we want to shop we can either TP to a main store which will carry the full range, or at least all the latest stuff, or go to the marketplace.

When your foot size slider is at 50, the TMP foot looks tiny. When you move the slider to 100, your foot looks normal sized, how hard is that to understand Klytyna?
Wait, never mind, your purpose here isn't to understand.
I think Klytyna meant that the default feet would be huge if the mesh body (and feet) were removed in a 'strip all' situation
because yes, the TMP feet are teeny and do need the classic avatar feet sized up to make them look right.

I've learned that some people can never recover from the dreadful shock and horror of being unable to distinguish a joke and sarcasm from genocide. It must be awful for them. Particularly when they are the butt of the joke, although that's something you would swear they'd be used to. Life is odd, and second life is odder and some of the people, well, let's just say I'm glad I don't have to share either a real or a virtual continent with THAT type

Their next of kin would need to provide Linden lab with a copy of the death certificate and proof of any testamentary intent with reference to the account of the deceased. If there is no testamentary intent then the account will likely remain technically 'active' indefinitely.
For details of how to proceed you could open a ticket with LL.
If this is not an academic enquiry I would like to say that I am sorry for your loss.

My philosophy in sl, if it can be called that, is simply this:
Love upsets nastiness, anger isn't sincerity, overly flamboyant feelings help engender rage; mindfulness engenders deeper sincerity.
I suppose initially it may seem odd, but I find it to be true.

There is one person in this forum I will never again reply to or in any way address. It should work very well.

I'm sorry, but if someone sh*ts in my face and I call them a name then I'm not going to take responsibility for this "negativity".
Are you seriously suggesting I did that? That I, presumably metaphorically, sh*t in Prok's face? LMAO, you are not a happy bunny at all, are you, Luna? And I am quite POSITIVE about that. smh, but you know, laughing at you. A lot.
