Perrie Juran wrote P.S. While I know there are ways around it I am in a sky box in a no fly / no landmark creation SIM. He had to really have put some effort in to getting to my place. Maybe, he's an alt of someone you know?

@Rhonda: You know that would definitely traumatized his experience in SL but freezing the guy was a good idea... just his luck he broke into the wrong house. I must say, 'my' guy wasn't as agressive.. very forward, but not agressive... at least he knows where the exit door was... but still, the idea of freezing an unexpected intruder is still a very good idea.

@Jaylin: You must have been single once in SL? Don't tell me you married the first person who said "Your place, or mine?" .. :smileywink:

@Sonya: I agree with you. Most people who came into SL does not really know what to expect, some were more confused with others.. like the guy I mentioned above.

@Dillon: I must say he was getting on my nerves a little bit... I was aware that he was pretty much a noob and was going to give him an advice or two about SL when he said I was 'pretty enough' to be his GF in this game. I may not be much of a looker compared to other girls in SL but dammit if I'd let a guy thinks I'm 'pretty enough'! hehehehe... I guess that was my trigger point..

@ Pershephone: Threesome!... that wouldn't happen in my house, though. The only furniture in my house that involves 2 persons activity is my shisha set. :smileyvery-happy:

@ Randall: The answer will be 'd'. Me: [Rezzed in to my house see couples having the time of their life]... Errr, Hi??!! Them: Go away! Can't you see we are busy? Me: This is my house. Them: So? Me: Okay.... [Rezzed in a tip jar] .. when you are done can you pay 50L in the tip jar? Them: What if we don't? Me: Then you wouldn't mind if I cite the entire chapter of end time event from the book of Revelation, would you? Them: Nuts! Me: Chapter 23.. and the rain and the four horsemen rise up from the sea.... Them: *****ch! Me: Oh by the way.. you are on Machinima video. When I'm done, I will post this at Metacafe... with both your name tags/display names on. Oh and you (points to the guy)... your freenis is slightly off centered from your pubic area. I think you need to move it slightly to the left. It doesn't looked... well placed.. Them: TP'd out.

@ Valerie & Monti: This actually happened yesterday a few seconds after I finished changing my clothes and about to change my hair when this person appeared. Honestly, I don't mind if someone comes by and wanted to chat... but this guy apparently thought that Second Life is Sex Life. He wasn't the first newbie who had propositioned in the past but he was definitely the first person who barged into my house and ask for sex... with a Freenis! @ Pep: I wanted to ask him yesterday if he was Wasted... and I will become his GF if he pays me and let me convert him to my religion.

Randall Ahren wrote: As an aside, how did he find your house? Perhaps he was using the radar and used the "Teleport To" function. He said he was visiting his lady friend (the one who gave him the freenis) which was adjacent to my neighbourhood. I was facing the wall so I'm not sure if he used the map to teleport in or the door.

We are encouraged to be friendly and respect our fellow residents in SL. We are expected to be nice and hospitable to newcomers and visitors. But, what would you do when a newbie just popped into your house one fine day without a knock or announcement?... Me: Errr, Hi??!! Him: Can I sit? [...went for the rug and click on it...] Where is the pose ball? Me: Uhmmm... just right click and sit. [...Checked his profile.. 2 weeks old...]... Newbie, huh? [...sit next to him...] Him: Yes, I'm new ... You have a nice pretty home... Like you. Me: Thank You. How can I help you? Him: I'm looking for some pretty girls to share activities in Second Life. Me: Define 'Share'... Him: [...after a long pause...] Someone to have fun with. Long walk on the beach, dancing at the club, chatting, romance.. Me: aahhh... Him: You look pretty enough. Do you want to become my GF in this game? Me: What can you offer? Him: I can teach you romance and spanish in this game. Me: You are Level 1 and I am Level 3. I don't do romance with Level 1 gamers. Him: Why not? I am a good gamer.. I just don't want to pay to come out from Newbie. Me: I supposed you want to stay in this house too if I say Yes? Him: Sure... couples stays together..If you let me, I can show you my **bleep** a lady friend gave me just a few blocks from your house. She is also new like me but she bought a house and sex bed. Me: No need, thanks... It must be the Freenis.. Him: Freenis? Me: Free **bleep**... Level 2 gamers will buy from Lotus, Level 3 and above will buy from SexGen and Xcite!. Him: I am not going to pay... How many levels does this game have? Me: I don't know, let me count [... started counting all the visible forum ranks..] ... I think 10 Levels all together. If the Lindens thinks you are awesome, they'll elevate you to godmode status and you have a last name of Linden. Him: What can they do? Me: Nevermind... Him: [..long pause..] ... so you want? I play WoW.. I am good gamer. Me: I don't date Level 1 gamers... I guess by this time he got impatient so he got up and started clicking and trying on all my furnitures. Him: Where are pose balls? Me: Type Show and all the balls will show up. Him: [In local chat] "Type show" Him: I see nothing! Me: don't say "Type Show"... just type the word "show" in local chat. Him: "Show"...[sat on it, stand, sat on it again, stand, tried the other pose ball, stand...] How come there are no sex balls in your house? Me: Why? Him: for Romance! Me: Not with Level 1 gamers. Him: I think you look down on beginners like me. Me: smiles .... Only to you. Him: I better go.. you are boring and should not play in this game. Him: [typed something in Spanish... ]... Tu, &*^@msuieh#&**#*&&@!$$**..'*^# Senorita..laksueo*jskwo**.... [at least that was how I interpreted it.. :smileyvery-happy:..] Me: OK, mafee mushkila, sadek.. masaalama.. to go out from this house left click on the door in fr..... Him: I know to OPEN AND CLOSE!! Me: laughs... thought you need help. Please FEEL FREE NOT to come back to my house again. He walked off. Put him on my ban list. ..... End.... Now what would you do? Perhaps an insight to your experience? What is your 'Nice-ness' limit to someone new before you pull the trigger?

I have been using KinEx as my textures and sculpts organizer and so far it hasn't dissapoint me yet. I spent the entire day yesterday organizing my inventory and boxing the old stuff so I can keep my inventory counts below 10K ( It's down to 8978). I was thinking if I could use one of those Inventory menu rezzer as my organizer for easy access or is there a better alternative to inventory storage kinda like the KinEx Organizer, that anyone can recommend?

@Tobi... I have not seen it written anywhere if there is a minimum height to 'float' your builds. As Peter have stated, this is within the covenant of the parcel. I bought mine in an auction so I owned my own parcel... and I can build as high or as low. Whether it is right thing to do or not... I'm not sure myself. I generally do not like to be in an enclosed environment, and I definitely cannot stand being boxed... so as long as they don't block my tiny parcel with giant megaprims of walls ... I'd be happy.

@ Persephone... With extra Sugar! :smileyvery-happy: @ Luc... ok furnitures would be odd.. I'll get one of those mechanical cows instead.

Hi Faith, There are a few types of housings in Linden land. You don't always get to choose the on you want. LL will provide you some selections and you have to choose which one. But of course you can always abandon it up to 5 times in 24 hours until you settle on a home. Below are the LL homes location. You can roam around and see for yourself before you decide if this is the type of community you would like to be in. http://maps.secondlife.com/secondlife/Valle%20Grande/162/226/22 Alpine homes http://maps.secondlife.com/secondlife/Ravenbrook/235/227/72 Modern Homes http://maps.secondlife.com/secondlife/Hirame/219/158/23 Oriental Homes http://maps.secondlife.com/secondlife/Aberyswythe/25/189/27 Fantasy Homes

Thanks Czari and everyone else who replied. I have decided to just let it be for the moment... Come to think about it, I saved an extra prim so now I can use it to build a small box with the extended platform as my base and place some furnitures on it.. lol...

Perrie Juran wrote: Wild that you got a suspension for what you put in your profile. Well to be honest, at that time I didn't know it was against the ToS to blatantly admit in the open that I 'hacked' into my fictionous Husband's account. I created the account to see what kind of reaction I get from the male population. True enough no one dared to even say Hi to me except a lady who thought my profile was funny. 2 days...! that was how quick I got AR'd... I'm just surprised the little girl you mentioned survived this long.

Perrie.. You missed a name.. :smileywink: Did you AR'd her together with the chat logs?.. Someone AR'd my alt account and managed to get me suspended for having this in my profile. I thought it was funny but not to those guys at Zindra. "Hi, I'm here to keep an eye on my husband whom I think is cheating on me with some internet girl. So I'm not here for any type of relationships but I am open to possibility. I mean just because you are diabetic, doesn't mean you cant look at the menu, right?... To my husband, Don't think I didn't know what you were doing during those long hours.. Yes, Hidden Camera, dear Hubby... I used your log in account too.. I know!! Prepare your lawyer!" I only survived about 2 days in Zindra before my account was reported for using someone's account/stalking and suspended for 4 months.

Hello Coppurr... Welcome to Second Life ...!! First off... Please feel free to ask anyone at the rezzing area depending on where you've been thrown into after your initial orientation. Most will be happy to help you to play around with your Viewer and getting started. Second... Freebies!!! Plenty of them in Second Life and you've got some in your Viewer too. Third.. You will meet plenty of residents that comes in multiple shapes of avatar, age and mental condition. Like Wasted above me.. he, I will put him in to the Butt Hurt category and he is prolific spammer of the forums. You will encounter people like him and more as you go along. Fourth... people are strange by default, don't get intimidated by those appears to be agressive.. they CANT HURT you.. ) Fifth.. ENJOY..

Thanks for the clarification, Celestiall. I will IM the owner of the prim and ask the person to remove them. I'm not sure if they are intentionally rude or anything since it is not easy to know when you are above with no property lines as your guide. I have never met my neighbour since I bought that parcel but I have noticed recently the neighbours surrounding me had removed their ban lines after I completed creating a beach hangout on my property. I guess they can't get into my parcel unless they remove their ban lines (I don't set any security to my parcel.. anyone can use the place for hanging out if they want). I'm grateful because now I can go to a deeper water, which was on their side, so the floating animation on my AO can be activated. I would prefer to settle this in the most amicable manner for the benefits of all.

I was scouring for space above my land to park a platform so I could use it for 'skydiving' (without parachute) when I'm bored or something... So I rezzed a box..position it at the center of my parcel, sat on it and set the z position to every 500m. At 3000m my head bumped into a huge platform (megaprim) on what appears to belong to my next door neighbour who has about 3 times the size of my land. Since I did not moved the x and y position, I assumed that I was still within my property line. I checked my prim counts and this one is not included in my prim allowance. I think I've read somewhere, you can only detect prims above certain meter. To be honest, if air space above 1000m belongs to anyone who owns a parcel, I guess it doesn't really matter... but I was wondering if it is within my right to ask the owner to move his/her prims to his/her side of the land and with explanation of course. I mean I only have 512sqm of land and besides wanting to jump from the sky I guess I don't need to build anything as high as 3000m, so they can build whatever else above me as long as it doesn't affect my wee 117 prims. Is there anything in Wiki that mentions the ownership of the sky above our parcel especially in Mainland?

was the map property set to no transfer before using them?

I was wondering about you the other day if you had passed by my house. Told you before that you are welcome to wash your tired feet at my little pool in front of my house and have a shisha or two in my house. :smileyvery-happy: Anyway, for me if I don't want anyone to come into my house, I'll have the door locked. However, I don't lock my door and anyone who wants to use the place as a resting place or to snoop around.. be my guest. I haven't got anything to hide.. In fact, I think I'm going to follow Nancy's and post my SLurL in amana's thread for anyone to use. @Drake and Janelle - LOVE the Badges!

Chloe, If you need a one to one help, I would advice you to go to the Welcome, Help and Orientation areas to find other older residents that are hanging around. Some of them would be able to help you. I'm not sure if you are in one of them now but if you are not it is easy to find the location for these areas. Under your Landmark icon on your Sidebar, find the Library folder. At the bottom you will see three default landmarks for newbies. Teleport to one on them and start asking for help. I just spent about 2 hours today helping some newbies at one of the help areas. Other than that, Welcome to Second Life.
