  1. I've had intruders in my place it doesn't bother me them being there. one couldn't tp away fast enough when i entered others the moment i say something like make yourself at home in local chat they can't tp away fast enough.
    I have been the unintentional intruder before if the home is very close to the sim border and there have been a couple of times i've intruded with a purpose there was a time when out on the mainland going over a sim crossing might land me in a 0,0,0 abyss view not able to do anything to avoid re-logging or having to tp away i found camming around in search of something to sit on often helped get things back to normal one time i cammed around found someones home tried every bit of furniture nothing helped the owner came back wasn't impressed and i tp'd away pretty sharpish

  2. Realms and Paleo Quest are your best bets if you want a few L$ i do miss being able to get in to the Realms as you can dedicate as much or as little time as you want there and make money. i've tried resident run schemes in the past if they haven't paid so little it's not worth wasting your time or made you jump through a load of hoops to get a cash out i've been banned from using their service if i've had an alt test something i might be having a problem with. Anything Linden run as long as you don't do something that winds up getting you banned from accessing it you'll always have a way to get L$

  3. It used to be the case with one brand of sploder whose sploders mostly looked like a bulging bag of coins or a pig that they were click to enter you didn't have to pay anything this brand even had a HUD that would show all the sploders with the most money in and TP you there if you entered you might get L$500 if you were really Lucky L$1-50 if you were the majority and L$0 if you were really unlucky or entered as it was close to Xploding

  4. You can parcel off areas at ground level but can't parcel off the sky each parcel owns from the ground to more or less infinity in the sky though you can only build as high up 4096m 

    an alternative solution would be to rezz platforms to the size you want at the heights you want and all the platforms would share the same parcel

    We have gone from having pretty much no presence of gacha schemes in SL,  to a large percentage of lindens changing hands coming from these machines in a 3 year span of time. As they evolve, the win mechanics are not shared with the public and are manipulated without the payer being informed. At any given moment, the chance for the desired item could be zero, and they would not know it.

    Not to mention that SL is a multi-cultural community in which gambling is forbidden in some cultures, and some of those cultures, specifically those of Muslim origin see gacha schemes as gambling. For those people these items are unobtainable except by second hand unregulated gouge sales on the Marketplace.

    As far as i am concerned Gacha's aren't gambling as you get a prize every time even if it isn't the prize you really want. They exist in RL and are specifically aimed at children with toys, figures, stickers etc. of what ever cartoon or comic book character is popular at the time. when i was a kid Gacha's used give out a gumball, rubber ball or flimsy piece of jewellery pressed of a sheet of metal that would turn your skin green

    I’ve never used a shopping hud, are they common?

    Not common at all the TMP shopping experience is dreadful but i persevered and got my alt all the clothes jewellery bags and shoes in the colour options i liked the look of took me several days and numerous HUD detach and reattaches as the HUD would often stop working the clothes i have tried have been very good quality and low complexity. just wish all the colour options and extra details could have been available in one click instead of clicking each and every colour

    Anyway, towards the bottom, you have a link that says "Personalize your new home" that points to  https://www.xstreetsl.com/.

    It doesn't look like a genuine *.secondlife.com URL at first glance. Or does it?? I would expect something like lindenhomes.secondlife.com or marketplace.secondlife.com.... You see what I mean?

    once upon a time that xstreet link was a genuine SL affiliated website it used to be that there was an online marketplace for SL called SLexchange (second life exchange) it then became XstreelSL then LL bought up the website which went on to become the marketplace around the time it was still XstreetSL there were a couple of other competing second life marketplaces called OnRez and Slapt.me they no longer exist

    Also what we use now as the forums in a different incarnation used to be the XstreetSL forum

  8. If you can only see face hands and feet it sounds like you are wearing one or more alpha layers on your body that make parts of the body invisible so there is no skin poking through if you are trying to wear system layer clothes the icons look like vest pants trousers skirt jacket & stockings in inventory they won't show up on your body. you will need to wear mesh clothing or remove the alpha layer(s)

    I also can't even correctly bring across how annoying their "the shops!" system is.

    Their HUD shopping system is just about the worst way to shop for their free clothes a lot of the time the HUD stopped functioning and I needed to detach and reattach it my alt may be left logging into the sim for days just to get everything

  10. Going on the fringe the hair looks a lot like an old style from Elikatira called either Pretend or Changes it's a retired style so you won't find it any more however you might want to look for the styles Victoria or Noelia if you are after a similar fringe

    The current TMP pricing model is good ONLY for those people who had already gotten the free male (or female) TMP mesh body, and now can pick up all the TMP clothing from their Boutique for free. All this clothing fits the free TMP mesh body perfectly without the need for alphas. There's not a lot of male clothing, but there's a fair bit of female clothing and it's available in a wide variety of colours and there is some nice texturing on it.

    Good to know, will have to make sure my TMP using alt pays a visit 

  12. I think at one point before sansar rival grid inworldz was touted as an SL killer some of the top creators of their day even turned their back on SL for it partly something to do with some changes or what not LL were bringing in. Even back in its peak it was never as popular as SL

  13. I think it was all coincidence and pure luck people were getting online when they did my alt got logged in first attempt using Firestorm mode then when i'd finished with my alt i couldn't get in and then neither did my alt in the end with patience and persistence i got in, in firestorm mode as the inworld count was going up

    well, damn I don't even have the SL viewer downloaded this comp and the website is down anywhere else might have the viewer to download? 

     

    I don't think it's viewer specific my alt had a lucky moment and could log in on Firestorm about 30 minutes ago now neither it nor me can get in
