DQ Darwin wrote: Hi, so now you’re in SL. You explore the grid, you’re either amazed at what you find or you depart. If you decide to stay you discover rapidly that the grid is large with many facets of entertainment and things to do if you know how to find them (you probably don’t know how as yet). So here are some tips for new folks to use as a way to make new friends through common interests. If people posting here would add any tips they can think of it would be appreciated. TIPS Do not be shy, SL is very social and community based platform, ask people around you for assistance you will find the majority are friendly and very helpful. Many people have made bonding friendships that started with just a question Learn how to use the search function on the viewer under the events category to find things that of course will have people with like interest to you. Speak up if you see something you like for example skins, clothing, hair on someone, ask where you can get it, most will oblige with answers or LM’s. Realize that every avatar around you has gone through what you are now facing and most of them have asked the same questions that you have in your mind so they understand. Forums are another great tool that can be used to find people that share your interest and as a result can become friends. There are two examples that give insight to how this can work and it is rather easy to see how things can snowball to great events and the making of great friends. Both were shining examples of how people can meet. One needed only participate; New Forum Remembering Hippiestock Old Forum Hippiestock New Forum Strenghening the SL Community (Revisited) Old Forum Strengthening The SL Community Hi Dee! Great thread and great tips! Yes the forums can be so amazing, and powerful! For example. I started the thread in the Old Forum "Hippiestock" (It was called "A Forum Dwellers Party" back then), and stated that I wanted to throw a party for the Forum dwellers. Look what happened to that! It turned out to be one of the biggest parties in SL, and brought many people together from around the world! For a while we all set aside our differences, and stopped snarling at each other, and just had a great time! There is great power in the written word! Yes! Peace!

XiuLan Quan wrote: Hippie... Thanks for creating such a warm and welcoming thread. I treasure your friendship inworld and it is only fitting I make this my last post to the forums. The new forums may look different and they started out with such promise...sadly, that did not last. I am taking my SL socializing back inworld where I am most fortunate to have friends such as yourself. I am grateful to also have met Suspiria, Maddy, Jilla and Val...through the old GD and to now call them friends. There are a few more people I met last night and very much want to continue conversations and hopefully friendship with inworld. I also welcome friendship from anyone else that would like to connect on the inworld platform. I am also quite busy with my classes, work, and volunteer projects in First Life..so I need to be very selective with where I want to spend my free time...and I choose to spend it with my SL friends inworld. Thank you to everyone I've had the honor of meeting through the old GD...I leave the forums choosing to remember only the positive things. H'oponopono ~X~ Ahh XiuLan! Sad you are leaving the forums, but happy about your 1st life endeavors! I value your friendship very much my friend! If anything interesting pops up in the forums, I will be sure to pass it on to you! BTW! I got those bowling shoes that you suggested! Lady and I would be honored to bowl with you! Peace to you and yours my friend! Hippie

Here's a sample of how infohubs are infested with vindictiveness ( watch it .. not for the fainthearted ). Peace and good will to you my friend Wil! Good video! Peace!

Wilhiam Hydraconis wrote: Avoid Infohubs at all costs. The most venemous scum of Second Life reside there. They're the worst places to make friends. They're the best places to make enemies. I agree Wil! You have to be very tough skinned to stomach an info hub! Peace!

Suspiria Finucane wrote: I've read a bit about infohubs but have never visited one. Are they good places to make friends? Hi Suspiria! Info Hubs are generally full of people, both old an new. They are quite often the target of aggressive griefing attacks. I go out to one most weekends, to help new people! Peace!
