  1. Now there's a familiar narcissistic personality. Like I was fooled for a second. Let the games continue LMAO I need to spend more time here
  2. WOW....pretty negative and yet you joined in spite of all you list, odd. Just wondering do you have any links to backup some of the claims? They would make interesting reading Just wondering.......
  3. I have mentioned this before but I was brought here (SL) by a friend in RL. When she became to ill we would come here to dance run and play something no longer possible in RL Liz passed in 2008 and I am still here. I feel her presence on the grid as much as I would when walking a familiar street in RL. The friendships found here in SL and the ability to understand and communicate with people from the world is priceless. This is a platform where world leaders should meet and settle differences. If you wish to stimulate growth lower land prices and cap them. When people have a home and can settle in they tend to invest more into the community. Don't worry about the big land owner moving on others will take their (there) place.
  4. Lovely and hints of mystery Josie
  5. A goregeous and well executed shot....WOW
  6. Perfect...I can smell the dampness in the air. Be sure to flickr this one Owl I want to favour it .....hugs
  7. Woof! smiles, very sweet:)
  8. Very lovely...this is the first thing that crossed my mind......thank you
  9. LOL the freckles bit was good. In SL a tattoo layer can get rid of them, wish that was an option in RL. /me steps further into the shade.....pssst (opens coat) you want to buy a watch cheap, it's a real authentic knock off?:matte-motes-little-laugh:
  10. I would like to answer this question, but, I am to out of sorts after draging Madelaine (Maddy) around on that damn locomotive :matte-motes-big-grin:
  11. Blake Sea TURNBUCKLE/137/206/21 a place to start.
  12. Just a great pic Mari
  13. Luckly there was a helper in here I would follow "Knowl Paine's" advice.
  14. Not much help to offer you here. For 2 years my friends and I have been harassed and stalked on the feed. You can AR until your butt falls off and LL will not respond. So it looks like not only on the feeds but on the grid LL has chosen to throw away the ToS. That leaves SLF, here, as the only place it is enforced. These people I speak of attack everyone they feel they can ridicule, any charity of any value and any event not to their liking. One of them even posted here that shocked the heck out of me. All I can say is good luck, I have had none.
  15. Bag is in the mail Hippie, bagged for obvious reasons lol
  16. What Snow Days do: When arriving home and stepping into the house, the warmth feels so good; That first cup of hot chocolate after clearing the driveway never tasted so good; Lights low and curled up with a good book under a woolen blanket; The fireplace fire crackles, it's dark out and the wind howls, but you're safe; The wind moans and the snow swirls around you, yet you're warm and heading for the house door; So sing together ♫♪♫These are a few of my favorite things♪♫♪ I hate snow!! End of the driveway is a long way off Heavy snowflakes when you look up.
  17. So why didn't you Title this "Out With Old Computers" instead of 'AR when mesh isn't seen? You derailed your own thread. Answer to your real complaint - No the entry level of computers to login to the grid is just fine and should not be restricted just because you don't like complaints. This whole post seems self serving. Gadget Portal wrote: solstyse wrote: Gadget Portal wrote: solstyse wrote: So, the summary here is that because one person complained wrongly, anyone and everyone with an older or underperforming pc should be punished. And LL should take the hit to their revenue streams that results. And it all comes down to, of all the stupid things it could be, whether or not you're a fan of Mesh. .. Flaming someone and trying to make an arguement that they should be banned for getting fewer fps or being able to enable fewer features in sl than you can is a clear demonstration of just how pathetic your rl is. That's what I read of that post. It shows me you didn't read the whole thread and you're too over-emotional to have a conversation without resorting to insults. Go back and read all the replies, calm down, and stop getting so whiny and upset over a forum post. Unless you are actually a 12 year old girl. Then your response is fine. Quite the opposite. The problem is that I not only read the whole thread, but several other posts by you also. I have accounted for the fact that someone who is in the wrong mood may post the wrong thing, but a wrong mood doesn't account for the consistent snobbiness that you exhibit toward anyone and everyone who hints that sl may be underperforming on their machines. The message is consistent. That indicates a general outlook on life. And, call me judgemental if you want, but from what I've seen it's that your outlook on life is that anyone with less than you is someone to look down your nose upon. And to use sl as a method of putting yourself on a pedestal is a sign that there is little if anything going for you in rl. In other words, yes, quite pathetic. Note that I am not insulting you in your entirety. I am simply insulting that attitude that you have demonstrated on multiple occasions. Over several threads, each and every time someone has asked for advice on how to improve their performance in sl, you have replied with the same snotty, "Upgrade your computer because mine is better than yours" response. There is a definite pattern. Then you start a thread stating that anyone on a viewer that is beneath your standard should be disabled. So, since you didnt' answer the first time, I ask again.... How does having a better computer than someone else who uses SL make you a better person? And how is this disdain for anyone running lesser hardware a demonstration of anything other than your ineptitude to offer any solution beyond the simplistic "throw money at it" solution? I have read your posts very carefully, and if I got the wrong impression of you, then the problem is not my ability to comprehend. It is your inability to express yourself in a manner that is not insulting and overly simplistic. Now, do you want to offer a counterpoint that has the potential to change my mind? Or do you want to take the simple path and just question my age again? Alright. I'll spell it out for everybody. My complaint is and has always been with people that use the wrong computers to access SL, then complain about the experience, or worse, want the experience dumbed down to their level. If you're the type that uses one of those underperforming computers and doesn't complain, doesn't expect technology to stop for you- great. All the more power to you, and I respect that you can put up with the SL experience that way. But as long as LL keeps spending resources on obsolete technology, things will never improve. It's nice that they're finally implimenting something like server side baking. That's going to help lag, help framerates, and overall, improve the grid for everyone. Does it suck that some viewers will be left out? Sure. Would I rather see that than see the grid not improve? Absolutely. I'm going to add something else, too. As of January 1st, I was laid off. The company I worked for closed their doors. My income went from fairly decent to essentially nothing, while I still have bills that need to be paid. And even with that being the case, I still made that offer to spend my time and my money to help people if they asked me for help. I've made the offer before, too, in world and on the forums. I've seen threads, including by solstyse, on how to better optimize a computer to run SL... Yet there's never any followup from the people that supposedly need the help. Only fresh posts complaining that their computer can't handle SL. And instead of "Hey, yeah, can you help me find a cheap way to upgrade?" or "Sure, I'll take your old GPU, since you offered to mail it to me for free.", the replies to my offers have been that I'm mean and have a pathetic RL. So at this point, I absolutely believe that most (keyword, most.) people in SL that complain about their junk computers just want everyone to pity them, and don't want to do anything to fix it. And so, as long as we're talking about "just how pathetic [my] rl is", or how I "actually insult humanity", despite these things, then yes. You people are whiny little girls that would rather complain than take steps to fix the problem.
  18. If one knew they were right, why would they ask the question? It was obvious he didn't know the answer also. Storm Clarence wrote: ... in the Hollywood blockbuster movie that: "[Heterosexual] men can’t be ‘just friends’ with women." Was he right? If he was correct, does that mean I want to 'bed' all the females on my friends list?
  19. I have not seen a better close-up so far, in 5 years. Beautiful ♥

Totally different casting choices than the film in some cases but it gave a great idea of the staged version, with no loss (i'm guessing) of emotional impact (if the live fully staged version if more impactful not sure the audience could take it.) My cousin saw the musical on stage and loved it; I never could get anyone to go, and it's not the type of thing one wants to sit through alone. But then four hours of anything is a hard sell. Anyway, thank you.
