  1. yeah, I guess I'm a hoarder. I spend so little time in SL these days that I hardly ever bother with inventory maintenance. On the plus side, I'm not buying much anymore either so at least the problem isn't growing.
  2. I've got to start checking this board more often! I still have a twitter account, haven't posted anything in over a decade but I do glance at it about once in a blue moon, usually when someone talks about it here or somewhere else I go. Hairless dogs, really?
  3. Good for you! Becoming a no longer fat guy is an accomplishment and I'm sure it wasn't easy for you. But I'm sure you remember how it felt to be made to feel shame because of your appearance. Did any of that constant shaming inspire or help you to change? As a formerly fat person myself, I know the answer to that.
  4. At the time, I was young(er) and impressionable and it hurt my feelings terribly. Later I thought of it as a badge of honor, but slightly tarnished. Finally, it's just a little footnote, seldom read and mostly forgotten until someone brings up alts again. I have better alt stories but I'm not dragging them out again.
  5. I was my first av's first alt, born just one month after the original. I still keep a picture of her(my first av) in my profile's back page where originally you rl pic was supposed to go. Being accused of being an alt is a sure way to bring drama to a boring gathering. I remember the first time my first av posted in the forum she was immediately attacked for being someone's alt just because I had the temerity to agree with someone. It wasn't true but truth rarely matters when accusations are being flung about. I've created more alts than I can remember over the years. My peak alt creation years were the ones when I played Tiny Empires. I don't bother to create new ones anymore, I just recycle the old ones that I still remember the login info for. Except I did create a new one when the Senra body came out. Named it Pat so I could use the same name for both the male and female bods. Alas, another alt left on the shelf in perpetuity as interest in Senra faded rather quickly.
  6. Just when I thought I'd reached a plateau that I'd never get past, my eGFR jumped another 4 points. Now up 19 points from the low in December of 2021 when I was hospitalized with kidney failure.
  7. Short answer - no I don't think SL is more toxic than other internet societies. It's had some toxic hot spots over the years, including here in the forums. But it's pretty easy to walk away from the toxic and the nice thing about SL, if one venue gets to be unpleasant, you can easily relocate.
  8. This is the first post this site ever asked me to prove I am human. I've been posting here for over ten years, admittedly less these days, but still, if they don't know who I am by now, they never will. I doubt that I will post at all here if they do that again. Considering other things they've done over the years to stifle activity, perhaps that is their goal?
  9. I know I'm just an ignorant occasional visitor to SL these days, but, it seems to me that if you want to start a discussion about an acronym, especially since it sounds like a new feature, perhaps it would be helpful to mention what it stands for in the opening post. I had no idea there were now professional bull riders in SL.
  10. I found out. I need to wear the alpha layer in the head folder + ALPHA ( BOM Head + Body - APPLIER Eyes )
  11. Seems like I have this happen every time I try a new head. I can't remember how to fix it though. My eyes poke through the eyelid I'm using the default shape that came with the new Lelutka gift head (which I thought would help). Anyone know what I should do?
  12. Considering that everyone who owns the Lara 5.3, got a free copy of the Lara X, I think it's very likely that Maitreya will continue to dominate the body market. I like the Lara X, but I'm not going to run out and buy a new wardrobe. I've made a Lara X naked outfit to sit in my outfits folder right next to my Lara 5.3 naked outfit and I can switch from one to the other quite easily whenever I need to for whatever clothing I want to wear. As I acquire more items for the Lara X, I'll make new outfits, no need to rush though. Sadly, not too many of my 5.3 clothing items have been upgraded to include the Lara X so it's going to be a long time before I start wearing the Lara X body exclusively, if ever.
  13. Someone I knew for about ten years, turned out to be 5 avatars that I knew and I didn't find out until he died and they all went poof. It gave me pause, but didn't really change SL for me that much.
  14. Cancel the last peeve, I solved it. Actually I guess I should just have made a peeve about how change makes me cranky. The LaraX release has made me very cranky today as it meant that I had to change.
  15. I agree. I was already a Maitreya customer back when they only made shoes. I followed them as they branched out to hair and jumped on board when they released the first Lara body. Despite my initial grumbling about LaraX, I'm sure I'll be sticking with them.
  16. I found it by asking in the Maitreya Lara friends group chat for the link.
  17. And another peeve. I've noticed this before and I'm noticing it again. After being away from SL for a while, I find that clothing here is way more revealing than I am comfortable with.
  18. Peeved at how hard it was to find something to wear with my LaraX body so I could go shopping. Finally managed to find some Legacy body versions of clothes that I never bothered to toss in one of my many "to be filed" folders. They don't fit perfectly but could alpha out the biggest glitches. Now it's time to hit the stores and look for updated versions of things I've bought before. I am not thrilled with having to go out and replace clothing just to have better shoulders but, "oh well".
