  1. Point blank: If you're not the primary Administrator for a forum or otherwise on their Administrative team then your opinion on posting to an older topic means nothing whatsoever beyond your personal preference. The only "right" answer is how the Administraor/Administrative team decides to handle it.
  2. Look farther back in the thread or use the forum search feature - the source of that has already been covered. Boiling it down for you however: The comment that was sourced from suggested that the price might be equivalent to a couple of months of Premium membership. At the time the comment was made, Premium was $9.95 a month with Quarterly rates in the high 20's as cost. At 35, that is equivalent to about three and a half months - just above the cost of Quarterly. As much as I hate to make the comparison, most MMOs with a paid subscription of any kind charge for an account level name change with some charging for individual character name changes as well. With all that this service will entail for Second Life on the technical side? Count your blessings that it's being aimed at being that cheap. Mind, things I'd pay for include the ability to clone an inventory from one account to another (cue the screaming and gnashing of teeth from content creators) or some similar system/set up. Heck, I'd even find some way to save up enough to pay for a one time upgrade to a 4096 tier level (I think that's what the old Lifetime Accounts have).
  3. It should be noted that not every item made for the Kemono will properly fit anything other than the stock version with the stock shape. This is why there are many after market alterations (Starbright being the one I use) that can affect this too. The above is also true of any mesh body - fitted mesh or not.
  4. While I personally no longer have the patience to rejoin them if the Mentor program came back, I am all for its return. Yes, there were some bad apples/users who abused the program - and? Short of not having the program at all, the best you can do is attempt to mitigate/prevent it.
  5. Yes, and Qie's opinion - unless the quoted post was in jest - is that those who signed ought to be boycotted. By at least Qie. People have the right to an opinion. They do not have the right to be free of consequence.
  6. Sheesh ... There are no Island based rentals out there (reputable and "full featured" anyway) that offer a 4096 at 400 a week. None, period. You might be able to find such an offer on a Mainland, shared bubble plot or a Homestead .... But you're short changing yourself on those options. No, repeating your "data" with an eye bleeding highlight (seriously, that came out as black text on a bright white background - there's a reason I use the forum Dark Mode) does not make it any more "true" or "correct" - deal with it.
  7. That might be because you were thinking logically instead of The Quick and Dirty Way.
  8. Alternately you can use the three search fields on your order history page to find any item or set of items you'd like to have redelivered.
  9. The packages required by SLVoice are mostly outdated, sadly. Firestorm has a lovely troubleshooting page that lists the dependencies needed - best to do the search and install through the Terminal as at least one package is no longer available through the Synaptic Package Manager.
  10. Oh for cripe sake animats ... Go. Build. It. Yourself. No seriously, if you hold such a narrow minded view (and it is narrow minded) then go build your own Grid. Gads .... ETA: Oh yes, and before you mouth off, do try giving this post from this very thread a read, you might find that your overall attitude is quite covered by at least one entry there. Also, the only reason I bothered to respond to you this time is because Selene partially quoted your drek, spurring my curiosity to see just what you'd said.
  11. The System Requirements page is woefuly out of date - which should be fairly obvious to even those who blindly buy their computers pre-assembled from Dell, Walmart and such ...
  12. It can also be linked back to text RP and the IC/OOC dividing line. Though no matter which way you slice it, it (and variations) essentially boil down to keping some barrier between Online and Offline social (and other) circles.
  13. Land prices are not set by Linden Lab, Tier prices are and with the increase of Tier allowance on Premium accounts, they have effectively reduced that cost by a small amount.
  14. Except that the bit quoted further up states otherwise - a bit Theresa quoted while going round and round, pretending not to understand what was being said. Either these policies are part of the ToS - in any form - or they aren't. If they are not, the quoted bit is meaningless and without any truly official weight outside of how the Lindens have chosen to proceed. Now to that end, neither is wholly right and neither is wholly wrong. Why do I say this? The Terms of Service actually links back to the various Policies without directly incorporating them verbatim and does list them as being for Mainland. So: The policies are indeed only for Mainland but are also part of the Terms of Service, separated categorically. So I partially retract my earlier statements and apologize only for dragging that out as long as it was. The fact remains that the new continent is more a revamp of the Linden Homes project than it is a part of the Mainland. The fact remains that it has a Covenant specifically to outline the further restrictions Linden Lab has placed upon it. The fact remains that said Covenant should not be incorporated into the ToS, CS or any similar document. You can see exactly what I was getting at, above with animats more recent posts. ETA: And with that, honestly I'm done - with more than just the "argument".
  15. "The Mainland Policies are incorporated into Second Life’s Terms of Service. A violation of these Mainland Policies, therefore, is a violation of our Terms of Service, which may lead to termination of your account without further obligation on our part. " If such is the case then the policies are global. Period. Anyone care to go through the Terms of Service to see if said Policies are framed in the Terms of Service as applying only to Mainland? If such is the case there, then I'll retract my statements.
  16. That "document" spells out the meaning behind existing policies, as made very apparent by the very bit you yourself quoted further up thread. It also makes it clear that said policies are part of the Terms of Service, which affects Mainland and Private Islands alike. These are thus, not additional restrictions. Again, you can stop now. It's quite obvious you've not been tracking along with what has been said. It's also quite obvious that continuing further is pointless. Believe you're correct if that is what you wish.
  17. That .... takes a bit of doing. Some can get them to work using built in options in the client/viewer ... some find they don't. (Same optons for using a 3D mouse, by the by). I did use a joystick for some things once - I used software called Joy2Key to do so.
  18. Those regulations apply everywhere - not just Mainland. The lack of a Covenant means there are no extra restrictions. Which is - again - the point. A point that is not all that hard to grasp. At all.
  19. Why yes, yes I did. Did you properly read my response? Rhetorical question - no, you did not. Here it is again: Is there some part of that, that confuses you?
  20. Nearly all of that information is contained inside the Terms of Service and the Community Standards - documents which affect the entire service and are a baseline. A policy on a Wiki does not meant very much and exists as clarification and a variant of FAQ. So again, the vast majority has no Covenant.
