    I don't want the Lab changing their rules. I DO want parcel owners of adult places to be super clear about what they allow on their parcel or in their club. I go to a few adult music venues. The rules say it's okay to do adult stuff there. Naked people on the dance floor with grinding dances because thats what THEY like, someone getting busy in the corner on adult animated furniture because that's what THEY like, some one naked and kneeling in a corner covered in... ummm... goo and on a leash because that's what THEY like. Then a child avatar TPs into the club. I want the club to have an enforced rule to instantly boot them with a message to come back on adult avatar or not come back at all. I don't care if "underage avatar" is subjective. That should be up to the parcel owner. LL should enforce the rules they have and parcel owners can expand on and clarify those rules for what is acceptable on their land. I wish it was as easy as LL just saying underage avatars are barred from Adult regions, but that won't work because there is no way to guess the ages of some avatars accurately. People like pushing to see what they can get away with.

    Checking out some of the buildings. There are a lot of Dutch artists represented and so much detail. Beautiful! The garden in front of the government building Have you read yesterday's SL news?!?!?! Yeah, nothing much. Move along.

    Went to check out Canal City ysterday. @archangel969 did a great job! Waiting impatiently for hot tea and stroopwafels. These Dutch people sure are tall! Enjoying the view of the canals and windmill @Bagnu joined me for some sightseeing

    I gave up on catching up on this thread. What I would like, is to trust that the company I give money to for "membership" and land tier each month is hiring, firing, and doling out jobs to the most qualified Lindens and Moles, not just who they like best. I would like to trust that Lindens never use their god-powers to retaliate against residents for any reason like using us as entertainment by making body parts appear inappropriately, logging people out, adding debt to accounts, or reading residents IMs. I would like to see objective oversight in this area. I want to trust them.

    You might be an oldbie if you ever got sent to the Cornfield. *cough* I couldn't possibly be an oldie because I don't know everything about SL or the viewers, or all the tools, and I haven't created anything beyond using the inworld build tools.

    There are people who want it to be true because other people's drama is fun. There are people who don't want it to be true because they put their heads in the sand and sing lalalala. I have nothing I can speculate on, because I do not have any actual facts.

    Enjoying some hot blues last week Enjoying some much cooler tunes earlier today at one of my favorite music places. They were having a James Bond Theme with music from the movies. I didn't remember how painfully slooooooow some of those theme songs were. Now I have to go shopping for slower dances for my AO. Creative camera angles, cropping, and a fuzzy EEP used because not everyone is fully dressed at this venue.

    I LOVE this song! Thanks for sharing. It's been added to my playlist, but what the hell did I just watch? I might have to look up the meaning of the video, because I don't get it. 😄

    I ask them what they like to do and then take them to do it if I can. If they don't know what they want to do, I'll suggest a few things. I don't recommend going to busy clubs with fully decked out mesh bodies with add-ons and mesh heads. They just feel out of place and never want to come back. Smaller newbie friendly clubs are okay, teach them how to use the dance animations or ask to join a group dance, pretty regions to explore, help filling out their profiles, a short etiquette lesson on friending, talking in local vs IMing, how to use search and where to find the Destination Guide, how to make and find a landmark, and the most important lesson - patience. Mostly they seem to just want a friendly person who will talk to them a bit. I have never met a newbie who just said, "Where's teh sex?" I found a newbie in my Linden home a month or so ago. I welcomed him and told him could use the house as a home base to open boxes and change clothes or invite a friend back (no adult furniture in the house and 10 min auto-return). Last time I looked, he had a friend there with him, so he must have met at least one person on his journey. I did warn him that most people would not actually like that he was in their house, but he found the right one. Hook them on the fun, then fix up the avatar based on their interests.

    Maybe you're you're asking if someone else who happens to own the same body or head as you do, can control your body or head with their HUD? If that is what you are asking, no, their HUDs cannot change anything that you own even if it is the same as what you own.

    It sounds like you might need a break from SL. If nothing is fun for you inworld and your depression is worse when you log in, then don't log in. It's not an escape from real life if you feel worse. A break for a few days or weeks might be just what you need to reset. Is there anything you enjoy doing inworld? You don't like clubs, music, creating, building, photography, playing dressup, going new places because pervs are everywhere, and every suggestion has been shot down. Using SL to forget about realife hardships for a while usually helps people, but right now it is adding to your pain and isolation. Try taking a short break and hang in there through this difficult time.

    I have no regrets. That was a good bone.
  14. Cinnamon Mistwood
    What's that like? A vacation. I imagine it can be pretty peaceful and stress free. Enjoy! I hope it resets you like it should 😊

    I am not thrilled with the new "trendy" styles being made for LaraX either. I haven't bought as much as I am willing to spend. I don't like the shirt pulled up showing the breast or the skirt so short that it looks like a belt. I've given up on weekend sales for clothing. I am willing to spend on clothing I like, but the quality and styles I like are difficult to find.

    Sorry about that. It was a really good bone and I didn't want to share. In my defense, I gave you plenty of warning to back off from your thieving ways before that bite. I've been vaccinated for rabies, so just wash the wound and learn your lesson.

    There is no such thing as "just" a housewife. 😊 Welcome to your SecondLife where you can be anything! Most of us are fruitloops, so you'll fit right in.

    I don't have a specific region to go to, but I just want to see if you are open to revisiting some of the places you tried. It is hard getting accepted by a close friend group. Instead of just going once or twice, revisit the same places at the same times over and over. People will get to know you over time. Clubs have slow times, but going to the same places means people will recognize you. You're not just an unknown person passing through never to be seen again. Friendships take time and familiarity. I wish you the best.

    You must have access to different grocery stores than I do. I am glad you have the time to prepare your fresh food everyday before it goes bad and then time to do the dishes and relax a bit before bed. Convenient way to live, if you can do it.

    My diet leaves a lot to be desired. I should add more fresh food in. I do eat raw veggies and hummus a lot and cook full roasts on weekends. Peeve: Eating healthy is expensive and takes time to prepare fairly often or it spoils. I don't have time to go to the grocery several times a week. Canned food lasts forever on the shelf.

    Chores at night? Eff that for several reasons. I am a morning person. I wake at 4:30am everyday whether I want to or not. I jump out of bed filled with energy and ready to attack my day. I regularly work 12 hour days, have a loooong commute to get to work, and sometimes still hit the gym on the way home. In the evening, I'm lucky to microwave a can of soup or eat a bowl of cereal and milk over the sink before physically crashing (sometimes with my shoes still on.) Those dishes will be there tomorrow AND the next day. I cook on the weekends, though, and clean as I go, so there is never a big mess. Peeve: There are a lot of right ways to live, but we each think our own is the only right way.

    Thanks for something new and different! This one is going in my playlist. ETA: I had to look up the band. Siberian folk-pop. New to me!

    I haven't been inworld much this past week, but I am changing up one of my houses completely. It is a Linden home. I returned everything in it and chose an entirely new house style. It still needs some work. I like the floor tile pattern, but it is not seamless, so it won't do. I still have 70 prims available, so I can put out a few more decorations, too! Here are the alts sitting while I cam around decorating. One has most of the landscaping and the other has most of the furniture. They are so patient. The color palette is much more gray/black than this pic shows. Here it all looks blue.

    If you're going to start over anyway, just delete everything you own and have a fresh account. It's no different than starting over with nothing, except you keep your name and friends.
