  1. Me too Peeve, but kinda not.. hehehe That happened to me with a well known collar maker.. They showed up one time and only one time, on a thread and thought they were going to get all ecco superhero on me and nail me to a cross.. I probably do more for the environment in one day on a real world level than someone just sitting in a chair going around nailing people to crosses on the intranets. But from looking at their history, I knew it was coming one day.. it was always in the back of my mind.. When's she gonna strike.. hehehehe A ban here with a block there.. It's all good.. There is more than one way to skin a cat in this world with all the amounts of options we have to everything.. I'm not losing money getting banned anywhere.. one door closes another door opens.
  2. Fingers crossed with with both hands.. I wwant them to come back soo bad.. To me they were a trend setter that opened up a variety of looks that impacted the other creators to where they better start getting where there is more variety in their products too.. I mean when you can tell a mile away what brand of head someone was wearing, but not which head of that brand.. Ya.. Just walk through LAQ heads and tell me how many differences there were in those and where they are now? hehehe Since Genus came out, things changed for the better and look at the amazing looks we can make now compared to before they came along. Imagine a Genus head with an Evo x type of plan or maybe even something next level.. I'm one of their biggest fans.. I've deleted just about all my other brands because I know I'll never use them anymore.. My catwas, my LOGOS and LAQ's and some others that I can't remember there names.. I'm down to like three brands that I'm keeping.. My Genus heads are one o them. I have on my other two alts that have Genus heads and all the heads and versions of those heads on this avatar and more content for them than I can shake a stick at.. They aren't leaving my folders any time soon.. hehehe I'm holding out for them and hoping hard.. There really is no reason to change if you or anyone else are happy.. I'm not trying to push people that are already Genus towards Lelutka.. I'm looking at new users or new people moving to mesh.. Which will give them less problems and frustrate them the least at the moment. I always have retention in the back of my mind when talking to anyone new.. When I made that alt to check out the start up point and said to myself, I'm not gonna spend a dime.. A lot of things hit me and a really big thing was, I take the amount of money i spend in here for granted.. Just a few lindens are a lot coming in looking at things from that perspective.. As much as I would like to push them one way, I try to push the the best way for them at the time.. Genus are still good heads and great looking heads with a lot of content, more than enough to keep someone busy for a long time. But i see the troubleshooting and that's really the big thing that moves me to advies them to something else.. Someone that knows the heads already has those moves second nature.. hehehe
  3. Sure thing. It's Laveau Dreads, from CAMO.
  4. I still have my all my Genus heads on standby waiting.. I was one of their loud voices during the beta and after rooting for them and trying to get people interested.. I think they got the others off their butts if you ask me.. It's another situation where all we can do is hope for the best, but plan for the worst.. I hope the one filing all those fake DMCA's is feeling the burn to the bone right now and paying the price for what they were doing to others. Genus came back after that Bonerhead pulled that cheap shot and the store filled right up.. I'm hoping they do make a comeback and drop some amazing things on us.. We need more not less good content and I would hate to see them fade away.. But for right now, where we are at right now. If someone were to ask me which head I think is best.. I can't with all honesty and good conscience say Genus. I'd be lying to them.. I have all their heads and jumped on them the moment they came out..I have everything that came out for those heads in the first year.. Soon as it came out i was on it.. hehehe I always looked at them as the little engine that could.. That hasn't changed and I think they still can.. But I have to set all that aside when it comes to someone else's money..
  5. Did you quote someone? Mine disappeared for a few minutes and I was fuming. I went back for some reason and seen it was there without the quote.. if you quoted someone they may have cleaned out the quote at put it back..
  6. I don't think it is altruism, but more as someone said in there, seeing something that is too big to fail.. I don't even want to imagine the chaos that would come if Caspervend just wasn't there one day, because of something like what is going on in the world today with unsure economy's.. For all we know, LL might not have been the ones reaching out.. I think if they show up one day saying everyone has to use their system, like they did with Xstreet and Slappy ( I would never forget you Slappy Hugs) Then ya. But it really does feel like more of a thing to make sure both creators and their customers don't fall into a Ginko situation, where one day they are left holding an empty bag of omgwtf happen to mah backup stuffs. They won't know what we bought we we would end up having to go and get new one or go without.. Sales slump off, profits for creators slump off, customers quit, creators quit, retention goes down, lights go out.. <=========Worst case scenario.. Why start at the minimum if we're already thinking big.
  7. The nice thing about the evo x heads is, they give you both worlds.. You can wear the evo x or you can switch to evo and use the other skins and things as well.. The genus heads, the last time they were updated was around when the strong gift head came out.. version 1.7 when everyone was told to stay home when the pandemic hit.. I remember dating it on my folder because I keep all my versions folders dated.. That was in march of 2020.. They weren't fast before with updates, but I have a feeling there are bigger RL things going on.. A lot of really good creators live in Ukrain and their situation might be where, they can't do anything right now.. I just don't think we'll be seeing updates for that head any time soon.. If you ask in the group when's the next update, you'll get, they are working on it.. They might be and just squeezing time in when they can, but I don't think it's just work that they have to squeeze time in from.. they are in a pretty rough part of the world right now.. I love my genus heads, but they are in so much need of updating.. Hopefully they do put out an update and things turn out really great, but it's pretty much like looking at static on a tv right now on when the next one will be. I would definitely move towards a Lelutka, it's just an all around better head.. My last two were free, Lilly and Kaya.. I haven't taken my lilly off since I got it.. hehehe
  8. I'm sure they made an offer for it and someone took the offer..It doesn't sound like they got squeezed out like with the Xstreet thing. This sounds more like a deal where both walked away smiling.. If both walk away smiling, then it's a good deal. I don't think LL makes a profit off the redeliver from the market place.. This actually could be a good thing, where market place and in world purchases can be in one place for redeliver. Well, other than those not using Caspervend. Caspervend could one day just not be there, then what? With the world economy heading where it's heading, that could be a real possibility.. Stores can still do their own redeliver, which some do and that's nice.. But if it ends up being where they don't have to, that could be nice as well. Or if they want to keep doing it they can. Unless they come up with something one day saying, nobody else can do this, then I'm not seeing how it's going to hurt anything..
  9. I did have that song on there, but it was the version where the other politician he's running against interrupts the song.. He say's some things that might have upset some people so I pulled it off.. It's been awhile since I seen that part and forgot he did that in there.. so I was like, Oooookay, we better get that back off there.. hehehehe Found the version where there isn't any of that.. hehehe
  10. Another thing to add to that is, If you run into a problem with the product, there isn't any transaction history that you can see or show them.. I don't know if they can see it or not, but nothing show in yours.
  11. You could try looking at Aii & EGO.. If you haven't already.. They have all kinds of wild things there.. You might find something there.. http://maps.secondlife.com/secondlife/Aii and Ego/124/149/1521
  12. There's more to one at a time'in it, than meets the eye.. Remember what these fellers did for this mans election later on.. hehehe I removed the bottom video because it was a bit raw..
  13. Not by me.. I lived up north in Chicago.. The only thing I miss about up there is the food. So much great food up there that I can't find here.. Some places try and come close, but not like my old home..
  14. I'm with you on this.. I refuse to buy the same thing twice.. It may have me going somewhere else altogether from then on out, depending on my mood that day or any day after.. hehehe
  15. Looky what Flicker has now.. It just dropped today. https://blog.flickr.net/en/2022/09/13/discover-virtual-photography-on-flickr/
  16. Virtual Photography This looks interesting and they even give a mention of the Second Life community. What kind of content would fit under virtual photography? Flickr members are free to decide which term most accurately describes their work and how to categorize their content. However, we’re introducing this new category with two types of photography in mind: video game photography and content shared by the Second Life community. https://blog.flickr.net/en/2022/09/13/discover-virtual-photography-on-flickr/
  17. I just went to Tetra today and got a few things that have been updated to reborne.. Those were nice to find, Especially the spicy set which I love..
  18. I like the song, but really not too into the video that much, so figured I will share the song. I think the big reason i like it is because he sounds like Roy Orbison, who i like his voice a lot.
  19. It makes for some of the best batter.. I make some good poppers, which is what we call cheese and jalapeno's in batter. It's great for hush puppies and battered fish and deer.. I'm starting to think about getting into the kitchen now!! hehehe Have to wait until they polish off the veggie stew i made the other day first, or it'll go to waste.. hehehe
  20. I love the weekend sales, that because the price is so low they don't feel the need to put out a demo.. I still don't buy it if it's low priced and no demo.. No demo no sale..
  21. Ya, I've ran into this a few times recently.. Go to get a redeliver only to see the product isn't there anymore or they changed the name of the product and selling the same thing but a more updated version under a slightly different name because they added a couple letters after it.. It's just another way to resell the product over again rather than really putting out a new one.
  22. The biggest difference from cake, like a vanilla cake or something like that, is using corn meal vs cake flour and nowhere near the amount of sweetener.. Cake will take like 2 cups of sugar plus the extract, where cornbread will take a 1/4 cup of sugar. I substitute sugar with raw unfiltered filtered organic honey because it's so much better of a tasting sweet and it's not processed sugar.. So I only use around an 1/8 cup for a regular batch otherwise it would overtake and be more as cake than a bread.
  23.

  24. The closest I come to making sweets is cornbread, which everyone that has my cornbread say's, it's like cake.. hehehe I don't make that short hard cornbread that leaves crumbs.. Mine's nice and fluffy and bonds together nice with a cake like texture.. Good for soppin up stuff on your plate.. hehehe
  25. With Chicago pizza it depends since there are a few styles.. That's either a deep dish pizza, which doesn't have a crust over the top, or if that all that stuff is sitting on the top crust, it would be a stuffed, which would be a pizza pie. hehehe it's hard to tell them apart until you dive in.. hehehe
