    The OP did not specify just what kind of avatar they were talking about. Did not mention child or furry. The OP has posted exactly twice in the forums, once in August 2021 about the demise of gachas and this post. So championing the rights of child avatars or furries in the OP's name and claiming to know who their friends are (and what they think) is rather revealing, don't you think?

    Hatred and fear cannot be dictated. People experience them whether they want to or not. It is their actions that they must be responsible for, not their feelings.

    I'm still looking for Maximus' whatever it is. I've found a few of Lula's things but still looking for the lipstick. You never know when Abnor might add another trading card to his wallet, so I usually edit it and look in the contents before leaving it.

    It is my belief that the OP is long gone and really only wanted to start a ruckus. And I think they succeeded.

    There are some people who write about a myriad number of different things and whom I enjoy reading, no matter what the topic is. There are others who I'm interested in for some topics and don't care about the other things that they may post about. So I follow a few people and a few topics. I look at my notices and some things I see there I will want to read and other things I pass over. I don't read everything in the forums, not even close. And there are some posters whom I've learned I don't need to read at all and I block them.

    Just looking at their posting history, I think the OP might have been a troll. But at this point we don't really need the OP to continue our discussion of whether or not there should be more rules or less rules about what avatars can look like. I think we can all agree that child abuse is wrong. But it happens in RL. It doesn't happen in SL unless a child has managed to break the rules and get into SL. I don't think that is what we are seeing when we see child avatars. A child who is breaking the rules will not be interested in depicting themselves as a child. So who is interested in depicting themselves as a child? Maybe it's someone who is working out some issues from when they were a child. If that's the case, then I think the rest of us should mind our own business and let them do what they need to do. Is it disturbing? Sure it is. Don't like it? Don't look. I think the rules are just fine the way they are.

    I really enjoy your posts and I'm glad you're back here. Quip away! I think I would be just as embarrassed if the spotlight was shining on me, so pay no attention to that little smidge.

    Tone was meant to be teasing, with maybe a smidge of jealousy thrown in because, yeah everyone is looking at you, not me. I'm really kind of surprised at myself but I started writing it just to get it out of my head and never meant to post it, then I read your last post and it seemed like it was tailor made for me to post my rant as a response. And no, I don't know what it's like to see it glaring at you because I've never won the day. I didn't even know such a thing existed before.

    OR try this: "I’m not bragging, (but yeah, I’m totally bragging) but I’m horrified, I tell you just horrified to learn that I post a lot and have gotten more reactions, more than anyone, and in fact I’m on the leaderboard and so are other people and I’m not naming names, mind you but yeah, I will name them and I implore them, and implore you to look, LOOK, LOOK!!! And see, I’m not the only one. In fact, there are people who have posted more than me but I’m on the top. No wait a minute, I’m second, oh look there, it’s changed again and I’m on top. It’s so embarrassing. Please don’t anybody look. It's right there in yellow because I won the day. You wouldn’t know that if you’ve never won the day, but it tells you in your profile, which I never, never look at, when’s the last time you won the day. Winning the day happens every day you know. People post and other people react and the person who gets the most reactions for a day’s worth of posting wins the day. I wish this software didn’t keep track of these things because it is just so embarrassing. But you’d never know about it if you didn’t look at your own profile. It’s like looking in a fun house mirror. What you see vaguely resembles what is there but distorted. I’d better look again because it’s always changing. Oh god, now everyone is looking, aren’t they? No? Well, why not?"

    @Eirynne Sieyes I tried to take a picture but I had just reinstalled Firestorm to the new release and my old photo settings were gone, it disappeared before I could snap it. I think I was somewhere in the Randelsham Forest area. ETA: Found another one

    I found Lula's feather! Seems she is molting.

    I used to buy a lot of clothes back when I was hosting. I don't anymore. Now I tend to buy way too many things that I see posted in the https://community.secondlife.com/forums/topic/461691-the-all-in-one-home-furnishings-topic/

    Back when I was a newb, I (or maybe it was my first av - I can't remember) used to hang out at NCI Kuula (we both did) and there was an individual, whose name I can't remember who was an amalgamation of a castle with Doc Octopus arms and wheels with a little living room/console inside. He was very gentle and kind and liked to build things. He helped me out with a door script when I was learning how to build with prims. He let me come inside his avatar, a privilege he didn't offer to many. It was very cozy with seating, bookshelves and a lamp, all built in to the walls.

    So yes there is an intelligentsia, and despite what some may think, it ain't us forum dwellers.

    peeved peeve: had to google FOMO (because I was afraid I'd missed something).

    I used to post in the alt.support.depression group on usenet.

    I've recently become addicted to coffee again after 30 years of abstaining. But I learned that unlike tea, coffee does not have too much oxalates and I can drink it safely.

    OK kids, lets knock it off. Don't want to lose this thread. I would be very peeved if it were closed.

    I have no interest in BDSM, it's just not my kink. But I will defend to the death your right to practice it and/or talk about it.

    IKR? Came back from the pool and all heck has broken out!
  22. kali Wylder
    I'm very curious,(and very out of touch) can you tell me?
  23. kali Wylder
    Where to begin... I don't know what this "leaderboard" thing is or where to go to see it. Does it count how many posts you've made or does it count how many reactions to your posts there are? Either way, I figure it doesn't really matter, as I doubt I post enough to show up there. As for the emoticon reactions, I'm very inconsistent in my use of them. Sometimes I find myself reacting to every post I read, other times I forget they exist. I don't scorn laugh. If I use the laugher, it's because the post made me laugh. I thank people when I agree so much with what they said that I'm thanking them for saying it or when they've answered my questions. The like button is the one I'm most inconsistent with. I probably like a lot more posts than I remember to hit the like button for. I don't pay much attention to what buttons other people push on other people's posts. I do get notices when my posts are reacted to and I generally go back and look to see what it was I said. I generally get the feeling that there's a whole level of this that I miss. I have noticed what I think must be scorn laughs occasionally since the post didn't say anything funny. I do think that it reflects rather poorly on the ones who do it.

    I came in in 2009 and didn't spend money either. There were plenty of good quality freebies and there were blogs about how to get them. In 2009, there were no mesh bodies or heads. A noob in 2009 could look as well done as most others around them without spending any money. That's not true today. There are fewer freebies sources now.
  25. kali Wylder
    Currently it costs about $10,000 LL to get a mesh shape, head and skin to go with it. More if you want some clothes. Still more if you want to decorate a home. Not to mention you need to pay rent or premium for a place to live. Add that to the learning curve to get those things and use them. It's no wonder people give up and leave before discovering the magic.
