I DO realize it is still in the beginning stages and has come a long way just in the short time it has been out. Mesh beats all the others hands down as far as looks, but wearability - it has a LONG ways to go. Mesh hair looks like globs of modelling clay layng on your head. The texture is great, but it looks horrible. It reminds me of the hair before flexi hair came out. It just lays there. Is this really a step forward or back? And as for female clothing....what a nightmare! I don't want to look like every other woman in SL. I want to look like me. I can't have big boobs IRL, so I have them in SL! (I could but hubby refuses to remortgage the house for a boob job.) I don't want to look exactly like the clothing makers. I want to look like me. I have even bought things that the maker sent along a copy of their shape so I could look exactly like them! O M G!I want to look like me Of all the mesh I have recently purchased 75% will not work. Physics are great...your boobs jiggle, your but wiggles, but physics with mesh? Forget it. Impossible unless you want your parts jiggling out of your clothes with every step. Kudos to all the wonderful clothing makers slaving over keeping up with all the latest fads and fashions, but for me, sorry but rarely does anything mesh work. It's not mesh you hate, it's LL's broken implementation and possibly the poor work of some content creators. First off, there's lots of mesh hair out there that looks way better than sculpt or flexi hair. If you don't like what you see, try another store. Off the top of my head, I recommend Wasabi Pills. Second, there's no reason mesh clothing can't conform to your avatar's shape. The only reason it does not in SL is because Linden Lab did not believe people would use rigged mesh for clothing. I wish I were making that up, but Lindens I talked to in beta were convinced rigged mesh wouldn't be used much at all. They questioned whether rigged mesh was worth implementing at all, and considered only giving us static mesh objects. Oz Linden, currently in charge of the already finished patch (made by an ex-Linden) has publicly stated he does not believe people in SL actually want mesh clothing that fits them and thinks forcing everyone to have identical shapes is a better solution for everyone. So he's sitting on it. It's done. It works. Just needs to be added to the main viewer code. They're sitting on it. Meanwhile, they're absolutely baffled by their struggle to retain customers. I absolutely do NOT want to look like everyone else, and IF an when the day comes that I am forced to have an identical shape like everyone else is the day I close my account and walk away.

Amethyst Jetaime wrote: Been a while since i looked at this thread. I read through it all and there seems to be two possibilities here. You are a terribly insecure person with a lot of hang ups about sexuality who looks down your nose at anyone that doesn't meet your standards of appearance. You must come from a terribly narrow minded and judgmental family, which would explain this. So I can understand why you feel shame that you are in SL at all and don't want to tell anyone. What I can't understand, given the opinions you have expressed, is why you stay in SL. Or I'm wrong and you are just a troll. As evidence, I find it very funny that your profile is completely void of anything personal and you have no picture of yourself. Yet in your groups you belong to "I <3 The Starlust - The Starlust Motel, where the entrance is almost always in the rear. The Starlust Motel: We're not what you were hoping for, this morning. The Starlust Motel: We Aim to Make you Slightly Uncomfortable " The group logo is a picture of Elvis as the Sacred Heart of Jesus. AND THAT'S NOT TACKY????? ....enough said. Falls down laughing. OMGOSH!! Too funny!!! Thank you for the laugh Amethyst. I REALLY needed it! Edited to add: How can I get my picture to appear bigger? :matte-motes-smile:

Charli Infinity wrote: again, i said the majority not everyone this is the black and white thinking again. unless it's not no one it's everyone to you guys. you're just you. you don't represent the majority Please then, show us the majority. Because the majority of who "I" see in SL do NOT dress tacky.

Then not EVERYONE and EVERYTHING in SL is tacky.

So THIS is tacky??

Darren Scorpio wrote: Honestly there is hardly many people who use picks to promote a place they like. Most people use it as an extension of their profile to write about their friends and family. So what we really need is a profile tab just for this purpose with enough room to write the lengthy stuff people like to write. ^^This^^ It would be so nice NOT to have to limit what you want to say about who you are in SL and what you like.

greek Wingtips wrote: you actually are def the person I hate to have in a team, why because you are what we call a S*** Stirrer were the hell you got 16 from I dont know, maybe its you thats 16 years masqring as an adult,. Why don't you go back up and LOOK at who I was referring to?? Good lord. I was answering 16's response. Get over yourself.

greek Wingtips wrote: First of all I not griefed anyone and anything I did do or say is within all the rules of SL, lets get that out of the way, 2nd as your question "nothing is real" would care for me to abuse you in chat at a club and also whiles am there let me pee on you as you said it not Real so it will not affect you in the least, you seem to think just because its a in world game, feelings and emotions that relate being in this game are not real,there are more emotions and feeling prob running around in this game that you care to think. I not speaking for myself but for the others that cannot, That is what the mute button is for. YOU decide to abuse me in chat and I decide to MUTE you, end of discussion. And NO, peeing on my avie would not affect me in the least. I'm not saying that emotions and feelings are NOT real, they are very real, I'm saying that NO ONE is REALLY peeing on YOU. It's an action by an avatar made of particles. In RL, IF someone peed on me, they would be on the floor, picking up their teeth, but since this IS NOT RL, it doesn't bother me one way or the other. DERENDER them, mute them and move one. Geeze! how old DID you say you were??? END OF DISCUSSION. bye! have a wonderful SL.

LOL. I was answering 16's post not that he was 16. *giggles* but yeah he did get a special shower to cool down. :-)

Tex Monday wrote: Hey Techie Peoples.... Can one of you people who are more tech savy on SL than I, help me with a few problems. I've been having issues on the SL Viewer and Firestorm. When I'm in SL, I get horrible lag when chatting. I type something in and most times I see it 10 seconds later. The people I'm chatting with see it right away and a second avatar I have on another computer also sees it right away. Also having problems sitting...I disappear or get surrounded in blue...before sitting down. Also, and I don't know if anyone else has this problem, but when I go into Marketplace I get pop up ads on the right side. Very annoying and screws up my search choices (price low to high). That must be a setting because I get that same problem on my laptop and my desktop. This is all beginning to drive me a bit nuts and sucking the enjoyment out of SL. If you need additional information, let me know. There's a game that someone else was playing on my computer and it kept freezing up and crashing. Not sure if that's part of the issue or not. Thanks so much..... Hi Tex. Can't really help you on the chat lag or the other things but the ads are something that LL has implemented, but you can get rid of them, by installing ad block plus. Sorry that you are having problems, but I hope at least I was able to help you out on the ads. Have a great Monday. :-)

I hope for his own sake, he cools down and realizes that the only thing that can come of acting on his own, is more trouble for him. Some people just don't seem to listen though, especially if ones opinion doesn't agree with theirs.

greek Wingtips wrote: Well again just as I thought, most replies made sence others read my post between the lines, for example, you cannot mute someone peeing on others, and contacting the sim owner is all well and good if he is online to eject them at that time, and the person who sugegsted just tp out I pray no one ever pee's on them, why should the majority of people tp out of an ejoyment of some nutter, And like always the some replies are just stupid that they dont even need entaining. I sorted this greifer out myself ( not disclosing how) but I brought this ref up for those that do not know how to deal with such people, and the least some of you who seem think its a laught I hope no one pee's on you unless you into that sort of stuff. well thats my say done on this, You do know that nothing in SL is real, right? No one REALLY pees on you. good grief. And if you HAVE taken care of him, I hope for your sake YOU don't get caught griefing, because that's what it sounded like to me. Enjoy SL.

So its not that im criticizing or looking down at it, just some people don't want to see it. Some people's idea of art are other people's idea of pornography. You have the right to view such images anyway you wish. But, do you have the right to force your view on everyone else? ...Dres Can I get an AMEN???

Sephina Frostbite wrote: Can anyone recommend nails. I tried nails but can't seem to match to hand. Can anyone recommend nails that fit easily? I'm not inworld right now, but I believe mine are from SLink. they were easy to adjust, believe me for me it was super easy because of my crappy computer. LOL. so someone with a great computer, shouldn't have any trouble adjusting them.

Individuals were still never notified of what, if any, action was taken in response to an AR but if one knew the day, approximate time, nature of the AR, and the offense - if action *was* taken it was pretty easy to find on the "Blotter." Iirc, there was some outcry from residents who took exception to the name "Police Blotter" so it was changed to "Incident Report." The last time I looked at it* the most updated "incident" was over a year ago. *I just pulled up the link to verify my last statement and it looks like Incident Reports have been reinstated WITH the addition of all the information including the resident's name and penalty given. Now THAT leaves me speechless...not that I don't agree with it, but that LL is actually doing this!!! https://secondlife.com/my/support/incident-reports.php Oh my! I have saved this in my favorites, it might just make for an interesting read for when I'm bored. lol. I agree Czari, they are actually doing this!!!

greek Wingtips wrote: Couple of week’s back I wrote about griefers and trolls and people who sole aim is to come Into SL and cause grief to others, I suggested that LL should take a harder approach with these Type of persons, but was met with most replies about me being to much of a drama queen Then the subject goes of its tracks then it then becomes stupid I think LL should do this; any upheld complaint should be an instant ban for a week Two complaints 2 weeks, three 1 month. Yesterday I went to a really nice sim, it was listed on desinations and was so popular That the sim got full, I was with my partner and as seen in the picture this (thing) I won’t name as I be in trouble was going around urinating on everyone, now muting was not possible, walking away was not possible and reasoning with him to stop as many told him did not stop, he would following everyone around and urinate on them, I stood my ground to take evindence to create a complaint, most people left the sim, likewise myself and partner did too, was the only way to get away from this griefer. My question is this, should this (thing) be allowed to do this after overwhelming Evidence, he never sought permission to do what he did and also upset many other Persons,spoiling their enjoyment I know for a fact nothing will be done with this from LL Dispite me complaining Why didn't you IM the owner of the SIM and have the offender ejected and banned from the SIM? and like everyone has said, you can choose to tp out or stay and be offended. File the AR and wait, that's all anyone can do.

Should I post his brand? Maybe you wouldnt believe it... You cannot post the name or the store, it's against the forums guidelines and you could be banned from the forum if you do. they were a jerk, so move on and don't shop there again. Just way too much drama.

Another great thing was I had an IM waiting from CS with BioBreeds saying if I had tried all the other steps (which I had) then they would make sure the puppy was returned to me safely. Great CS and good to know it can be done from their end! :matte-motes-big-grin: YAY!!! I'm so glad that your puppy was returned!!! And wonderfully awesome CS! Thank you, Heart!!! I'm almost afraid to log in again...lol. But now I know the excellent CS offered so I don't fear losing her as much again. You're so welcome! I know that feeling. LOL. CS is always important and it's good to know you can count of them if anything else happens. I sent info on the VKC parks to you last night. Got them, thank you so much!!

Ariel Vuissent wrote: Be completely honest: Do you read the Terms of Service and other agreements, thoroughly and in their entirety, before you check the box that says you agree? For every website you go to that asks you to do so? Every time? And would you write a short answer essay for every single section before you could log on and use that website? Besides which, I think that in order for that idea to work, there would have to be someone on the other end reading all of those responses and choosing wht met the qualifications and who didn't - a time consuming process at the least. I don't think it is as easy as you make it sound to code something that would determine if you had used the correct words, without repeating more than a certain number of words, etc. before you could tick a box. I don't think that system is honestly workable. I think that anyone who does follow the rules would be penalized by this system, and those who don't follow the rules would find ways to get around that. The ToS exists to protect LL, so that when those things happen they can say "Well, we TOLD them not to do that." It's legal protection for them, primarily. I DO agree that we could use some provisions to help prevent griefers, though. I honestly don't know what would be a workable system, however, that wouldn't punish honest users. Emphasis mine. Yes I do read every TOS that pops up on ANY website that I visit, but I am in the legal field so it is habit for me to read legal things and IF more people would just read a little bit more, perhaps there wouldn't be such tantrums when they screw up and get banned. LOL. I do know that for the most part people just skim over things but honestly, I just think it's laziness on their part. What you don't read COULD get you in trouble.
