Persephone Emerald

This is obviously some weird glitch. When the problem is resolved, select the conglomerated objects in your Inventory & have them Restore to Last Position.

A picture is worth a thousand words, so you might want to watch some of these videos. I'd add more videos to this post, but I don't have time right now. Personally, I don't use "Outfits" for my clothing, because I get too many duplicate pieces that way. Instead I save a folder with my favorite body shape, skin, hair, etc, inside the Body folder. Then I put on outifts from my Clothing folder. Be sure you keep the folders your clothing comes in, though you can rename the folders to help you remember what's inside & delete notecards or LMs you don't need from the folders. Don't delete pictures of your outfits, because they help you know what the outfit looks like without having to try it on. Sub-folders are your friends. Get used to making & using sub-folders to help keep you inventory in order.

Dragging your boxed items to the ground is the most convenient way to set them down. You can also wear them on your hand, then right click on them & select "Drop". Then right click on the box to "Open" it & "Copy to Inventory" the items inside. Some packaging will open automatically when you touch it, but most needs to be opened by right clicking on it. Some items you buy go into your inventory in their own folders, without you having to open their packages this way. Btw, once you start buying things & picking up freebies, it's a good idea to put them into Inventory folders to keep track of them. SL inventory can quickly get unmanagable if you don't. There is lots & lots of free & inexpensive stuff in SL, which can be both wonderful & overwhelming.

The houses I used to rent out had a little land around them, so there was no reason for people to looks inside unless they wanted to cam to peek. To me a sex toy is no different than a sex bed, & both are allowable in private spaces in Mature land. I think such things would look tacky as well as be against the maturity ratings if they were outside in public. RVL devices are fine with me as long as they are in private or in Adult regions, but even if one doesn't have RVL enabled, they still send out little blue boxes anouncing what they do when you touch them. So, no, I wouldn't want them to be outside on land that I own.

Thanks. Jaylin. I was hoping for feedback from people who own a variety of SL pets. As you said, my Zooby wolf-dog is cute, but doesn't seem very bright. And dimness is just not realistic for a wolf-dog.

I stand corrected. Thanks, Peewee.

/me wonders if there are limits on the numbers of characters used?

I wonder if anyone has used TetaHydroCannabinol or LysergicAcidDiethylamide yet? What about StaphylococcusAureus or CandidaAbicans? If someone in world would recognize those names, they probably wouldn't be an idiot. I think the names we pick when we choose to represent ourselves in a new arena SHOULD mean something to us & thus tell something about us. Choosing an SL name should be like the first online or subcultural name one chooses, something that defines & represents some significant part of oneself. Even if it's only a pet's name, it's your pet that is or was important to you. The first pseudonym I ever used, long before I used the internet, was Persephone. People who see me with this name in SL can rightly assume I have some knowlege of Greek mythology & that the Persephone archetype has personal significance for me. My last name of Emerald has less significance & was basically a "safe" name that would be easy to remember & spell. The last names of my alts tell a bit about me too. "Blaylock" should be recognizable to anyone over 30 who's into popular vampire fiction, while "Ezarael" may be recognizible to some as a variant for the name of a fallen angel. These are both fairly obscure references, so if anyone recognizes them, they can safely assume we both share some relatively esoteric interests.

1. Remove the link that gives the profile for the person you say is infringing on your friend's copyright, because leaving it means you are breaking the rules of the forum. 2. The item for sale seems to be a gesture, while your friend's work seems to be a photo at deviantART. (Correct me if I'm mistaken). Thus, while the person may be using the photo illegally, they aren't actually selling your friend's work. 3. The page at deviantART says "it's the cute little Beemo from Adventure time, if you wanna know how to make it like i did go to the official Adventure time website they have it free to download, make, and play with." This suggests to me that the Beemo robot image is not owned by your friend & this particular version of it is a copyright-free one. If anything is copyrighted from your friend's deviantART page, it is the photo of this folded paper robot. 4. Your friend may be able to file a DMCA for this merchant using their photo without copyright, but I don't think they will get very far in a court of law over this particular use. Note: I am not an expert regarding any of the above advice. I'm merely stating my "common sense" observations.

May 28, 29 & 30 were the Memorial Day weekend in the US, so I think LL Customer Service people may have been on holiday. My friend & I have also been waiting a week to hear back on 2 support tickets (for buyng abandoned land). I can only hope that Customer Sevice will be replying to their backlog of support tickets in the near future.

You may not be able to file a 5th ticket about a person who is no longer a resident of SL, but you may be able to add information to your original 4 tickets. Look up your support history to find your previous tickets & add information to them.

Go to the Pheonix Viewer website to read their JIRA's on crashing & join the Phoenix Viewer Support group in SL. If you share your cache between multiple viewers this can cause frequent crashing. IMO, putting your cache for each viewer in separate folders on your desktop will probably stop most of your crashing.

In Mature regions public nudity may be allowed, but sexual content must be private. Ask your landlord what they allow. If I were a renting a home to someone on Mature land, I would not care what they do inside their house nor what furniture they have. I would care if they do things that annoy me or other renters, so I would not let them have a RLV trap on land that anyone could walk through. I would also not let them advertise sex-furniture by setting it "Show in Search", since this would be breaking LL's rules for Mature land.

Maybe we need some kind of device in SL that will tell folks what their real cup size would be based on their bust slider numbers? What would the cup size be for 50, for instance? Another aspect of cup size that I think many avatar body shapes don't deal with realistically is the affect of gravity on boobage. If you have D-cup breasts, no matter how young you are, they're not going to jut out the same way that B-cups would, unless they're made entirely of silicone. There's also the consideration of whether an avatar would be wearing a bra on not. Fully clothed, it's reasonable to assume a bra would be supporting breasts, so not as much gravity or movement. But in a bikini or hater top, there would be more gravity & movement. I wonder, with the new avatar physics being available on Phoenix as well as Viewer 2, if people will start selling avatar physics included with clothing? A corset, for instance, would create restricted movement, while a bikini or halter top would provide more.

Yeah the video is adorable, but the booby boogy is a little too much. Phoenix has a free Avatar Physics pack on SL Marketplace you might try to get see what numbers look better.

Woo hoo! free prims. :smileyvery-happy: Do you think this would be like your bank accidentally putting too much money in your bank account? So if you then use it, they accuse you of "stealing" it?

Also note that if you turn your Basic avatar account Premium for just one month, you would pay something like $10, but get back $L 1200 in weekly stipends & $L 1000 in bonus money. That works out to a little under $10, so it would only cost you about a $1 or less to get support on this issue. Then you could put this avatar back to Basic if you wanted to do that.

After you pay the initial $L 100 to form a group there is no additional cost. As long as you keep at least 2 members & one owner in the group, you will have it as long there is a Second Life virtual world. Anytime you own land, however, as an individual or as part of a group, you have to keep track of whether the owners of your land group's tier are paid up on their tier or not. If you (the owner of the group), another co-owner of your land group, or a member who contributes tier you need to hold your land defaults on their tier payments, your land may be liable for going back to LL & being auctioned off. The same kinds of things happen in RL when taxes are not paid on property. Another way that being part of a group can cost you is when the group has reccurrent fees, such as having group land "Show in Search". Then each group owner (or sometimes group officers or all group members) will be automatically charged for an equal portion of those fees. It is possible to incur a negative $L balance when this happens, even if a member does not have a Premium account. You can always try to buy & sell land at a profit in SL, but the current market does not favor sellers who are not very savy about the business.

Linden Labs has the right to decide that a group must have at least 2 members. How can you call it a "group" if you're the only member? That doesn't make sense. However, it's very easy to get 2 members for a group. If you don't have a friend who would join, just create an alt & have them join. Voila', you now have 2 members. Sorry you lost your $L100 & now have to file a ticket to try to get your land back, but that's what happens when you don't read the "fine print" in the LL rules.

Also search for "Money Chests" for a few $Ls.

Redgrave doesn't have many male skins, but the ones they have are nice & their demos are free. So they're worth checking out. The my main avi wears Redgrave almost all of the time & I've never felt the need to buy a premium skin from anyone else.

"We can have 8 accounts?" "As of now..yes. Eventually (as said in the ToS, LL will charge about 5 usd for every extra account per household)" Question? - How would LL determine a "household"? My roommate & I live in the same house, but we each have our own computers & finance our use of SL independently. Sometimes my boyfriend stays over too. All 3 of us could be on SL at the same time, but we're not all in the same "household". We each have at least one alt, .so how is SL going to determine when we have too many? Here's another scenario, what if there were several SL users living in the same college dorm? What would their "household" be then?

On a related note to this thread & the one about Twitter, here's a story about International Diplomats using Twitter.

Thanks, Rodvik. Thumbs up for working on the Group Chat problems.

"(imagine, for example... if someone I follow tweeted something inworld right now that I saw when I was out of world that made me want to go inworld!) I have that functionality now. It's called email, with my IMs & subscription notices going to it.
