  1. That is a huge redesign improvment on the sign up page. It looks a lot better and is much more inviting. However, why don't they have furry newbie avatars anymore? They used to long ago.
  2. Be very careful when buying resell items. Copybotting a huge problem in Second Life, and often those items aren't being resold. They're stolen content.
  3. I personally like the parcel windlight settings, especially when the owner sets them to fit the mood or better highlight the sim theme itself. If you don't like them, just hit the button declining them. No biggie. I personally keep my settings on CalWL, everyone looks fantastic and the sky is nice and bright.
  4. Trying to find posts on these new forums will definitely do it

Thanks to LL's action to make revealing alts against TOS, at least it can't be used to violate privacy anymore. However, it's very important that everyone realizes it's still out there, it's still active, and it's still collecting IP addresses. It's crucial that you leave media and cookies disabled unless you're 100% sure you're in a Redzone free area. Considering the fact zFire has threatened to make the alt list viewable on a website separate from Linden Lab, for payment via Paypal instead of L$, it's all the more reason to keep your IP out of his corrupt database. ^THIS^// RZ is NOT bannedand this headline probably did more damage to the cause against redzone thanall of zfire's protests. Yeah I agree and that's why I added that. It's still very much active and still a threat, especially in the hands of zFire.

  7. It’s also important to note that we are going to remove the “voting” feature in JIRA in one month. Today, we do not use voting to triage or to make product decisions and the last thing that we want to do is set false expectations. So, when you are interested in what action we will take on a particular JIRA, use the JIRA “Watch” feature so that you will be immediately updated in email when there are new comments on that particular JIRA issue. We will continue to use the number of Watchers as an indication of the level of interest. Why would you stop counting votes while the vote button is still there and active? It's incredibly misleading to say we must "watch" a Jira to indicate interest but our votes are meaningless. Not to mention some of us don't want our email full of comment spam by "watching". We'd rather check back to see how the Jira is doing on our own. If you want to change the way Jira interest is tabulated that's fine, but don't discredit the votes while voting is still available. Remove the vote button ASAP so people don't think their votes are meaningful. As it stands right now, it's like going to your local primary elections and voting, only to find out your vote didn't count just because you didn't stick around to "watch" the outcome results.
  8. I suspect it's absolutely none of your business if they are using an alt. Get life already. Who the hell cares if they have an alt? Go make your own alt and leave them alone.
  9. Hi Thalia, Unfortunately the only way you can get more prims, is to buy more land. There are 117 prims per every 512m of land. So, if you need more prims, you will have to buy more land. There is no way to simply buy more prims for your land. This is direct from Second Life Wiki: Every parcel of land in Second Life can support a limited number of primitive objects, or "prims". The number of prims a parcel supports is directly related to its size; larger parcels are capable of supporting more prims. Sorry it's not the answer you were hoping for. EDIT: One thing I forgot, you would have to buy more land in-world to own more land. You can use the Land tab in search, and there you can search by parcel size and/or price range. However, keep in mind land in different sims do not share prims. So if you want 234 prims, you would need either a 1024M piece of land or two 512M parcels within the same sim. Parcels within in the same sim do share prims. If you already have a Linden Home, unfortunately you couldn't add prims to it, because you're only allowed one per premium account and can't buy land in those sims.
  10. I smell a troll in our midst (though a damn amusing thread regardless! lol)
  11. That doesn't apply to this at all. No one is advertising anything here, people are simply trying help the OP find the product she seeks. People name creators and other business people within SL all the time on here when giving a reference where to find something a poster seeks. To the OP: I'm sorry I can't give you a good reference for the avatar you seek, but I can tell you not to worry about breaking any rules simply by asking and getting suggetions from others. I hope you find what you are looking for. :-)
  12. Unfortunately, what Irene stated (and you have already done) is the limit to what you can do. As many have said here in the past, LL bans first and asks questions later. Heck, I honestly don't think in most cases they bother to verify the validity of the AR at all. I had a friend who was temp banned not once but twice for gaming traffic via bots- even though he's never had a bot or even an alt. Best of luck to you on getting this resolved.
  13. It will take 5-10 business days for LL to process your credit and send your funds to Paypal when using the Second Life website. Which, I know is ridiculous. I cashed in L$ for US $ this way often back when I had a store on another avatar. Generally speaking, it took about week before the funds hit my Paypal and another 2 days after that for the funds to be credited to my checking account.
  14. "connection reason"? I am assuming it tells you lost your connection to the sim you were in? That could be caused by a problem with your ISP, modem, or router. I would suggest rebooting/cycling your modem and router both. Very often you will get these errors because one of them are going bad. If that doesn't work, I would check you connection/ISP. See if they are experiencing any issues.
  15. More details, please Are you getting any errors, if so exactly what does the error say? You say you can't stay in SL, exactly what happens? Can you provide the specs of your laptop? All this will better help us, help you.
  16. *smiles up at Unklebob, waving wildly like a complete tard* "Hi!! I'm doing pretty well, hope you are too!"
  17. Nuesha, ignore him. Be proud that you are officially far more mature, and intelligent, than a grown man. Every time he speaks he shows the world what ignorant moron he actually is. Small piece of advice: You should never argue with idiots, because they will just drag you down to their level... then beat you with experience
  18. I wasn't going to respond to this thread, but now I have to. Shabnan, it is YOU that sounds like an immature idiot with your remarks. Do you have some magical, psychic powers that allow you to see the OP's gender and age? You can not judge someone's gender, or age, strictly based on the manner in which they type. I've met 40 year olds with the grammatical skills of a 12 year old. I happen to be the mother a 15 year old daughter, and let me tell you, I actually have caught myself chuckling as I read the OP's posts because I can actually envision my own daughter posting in the exact same manner. They're teenagers, they truly believe they 'know it all' and always have to have the last word. Yes, the OP is obviously intelligent and well-spoken (written), which is quite refreshing. Not all teenagers are bumbling morons sleeping through school, talking in netspeak. In fact, my own daughter speaks and writes better most than adults, too. The OP's 'choice of words' didn't give anything away other than the fact she's a smart girl. Your choice of the words, on the other, make you look like a complete moron. She doesn't need to grow up- you do. To Nuesha: You're obviously a smart young lady. Yes, you're getting snarky because you're not getting the response you want from many here. My advice to you is to tell your parents what you did, take your lumps for doing so, and then ask for their help providing LL with the necessary proof to reinstate your account on the Teen Grid. As the mom of a girl your age, I can honestly say if she came to me and admitted that she messed up and asked for my help to fix it, I'd help her. I'd respect her honesty with me about her mistake. If she continued to try to fix the problem on her own, and I found out on my own (us mothers are sneaky like that) then she'd be in trouble for not being honest with me. Give your parents the benefit of the doubt.
  19. No but you could still lose inventory because Emerald isn't loading. I had the same thing happen without ever running the standard viewer. It'd be worth uninstalling it, and manually deleting all folders, then reinstalling to see if it comes back.
  20. Ok, for some reason, when Emerald shares the same folder as the normal SL viewer, it stops loading inventory and it appears as an inventory loss. To fix it, do this: -Uninstall all versions of the Second Life Viewer on your PC. -Uninstall Emerald. Then, go in an manually delete any remaining folders, particularly the one that is likely under your user settings where your cache is stored. Look under the Application Data, Users, or Roaming folder. -Once it's all deleted, reinstall the standard Second Life Viewer. Once you log back in, you should see the 'fetching inventory' and your inventory should reload in it's entirety from the asset server. To fix in the future, be sure under preferences your Emerald cache is set to a different location than the Second Life viewer cache.
  21. Have you: -cleared your cache then relogged? -reinstalled your viewer from scratch? Also, which viewer are you using? There's a bug with Emerald that will cause this to happen, and if that's the case the inventory items are recoverable.
  22. Alts are usually pretty easy to spot. Why? People are creatures of habit. The most common way alts are 'outed': joining the same groups as their main typing style. Personality does show through in the manner one types. similar profiles, including pictures visiting the same sims/clubs/location hair/skin/clothes made by the same creator the main wears using the same home as the main having friends who are aware of the alt The last one, revealing the identity of the alt to a friend, is the biggest. People talk, even people we trust. Your friend obviously revealed the alt to you, so chances are she did to others as well. There's also the chance of chat spies in the area. For instance, say you and your friend are discussing the alt in local chat and making reference to her main (or vice versa), if there's a chat spy it's relayed back to the listener and you're outed. The only 100% fool-proof way to have an alt? Completely different EVERYTHING- shape/hair/skin/home/friends/hang outs. Otherwise you will more likely than not be discovered.
  23. I once was given a box of building aids, but it the box was apparently just called aids. So, I recieved this message: "Dylan gave you Aids" ...priceless. LOL

    Make baby

    LOL! Larisa, it can be having long visits with "Uncle Inventory"
  25. ROFLMAO Unklebob!!!! On my previous av, a few years ago, I actually got shot out of a skybox by a penis shooter...naked...wearing moon boots...stuck in the monkey dance animation. As luck would have it, my neighbors were apparently having their wedding...which I landed in the middle of... naked, wearing moon boots, doing the monkey dance. They weren't amused and I was banned immediately. *snorts laughing*
