  1. I get it, first impressions you take from things you see are a learned thing from your life experience. Your first impression is not my first impression (and that's okay, right?) As for plenty of people not doing it, most people don't even know there even is such a feature, much less that it can be shared As for judgmental: nothing wrong with that; we all are. I am referring to pre-judgment, judging a book by its cover rather than its contents.
  2. Good point. Though I remember when the prevalent price for *everything* was L$10 to L$15. When someone charged L$20 it was WTF? That had better be darned high-quality!!! (Though skins were always up there, average was 800-1000L grrr)
  3. THIS! It's like an extension to their profile! For example, if I see a load of BDSM/Kinky/OMG... stuff, I kind of get a basic idea of how they like to spend their in-world time. Hahahaha
  4. Either way, it does work. I've received gifts from total strangers, and I mean from people who didn't't even chat with me. I think it would only feel "sugar baby-ish" if you put expensive stuff in there. I limit it to 200L or less type stuff, usually 50L-99L so I try to show that I'm not the greedy sort. That's good for you, though isn't it a bit pre-judgmental of you, also? Just thinking aloud
  5. The reason for the amusement is that in Japanese culture, a feminized non-gay man( as in pretty, not necessarily in action or mannerism) is called a "Man-Princess" - and the amusement is the oxymoron (A "macho" man-princess? Like "Jumbo-Shrimp" LOL) Think of the Lord of the Rings Elves wearing bodies like Aesthetic.

    This is the official policy stated in the FAQ. Whether it's true or works in an uneven manner is another story altogether.

    Delete account

    I'm pretty sure the system only keeps deleted account for up to six months.
  8. It is wishlists (plural) +first.last (or just first if resident.)
  9. Good that you've submitted the ticket. I don't know about this specific issue, though whenever I've submitted a ticket it usually takes at least a day or two or three. Depending of the problem, it was either fixed quickly, or I needed to provide additional information (which you can do by replying to the email). I can only say this: if they need more information, give it to them, be polite, remember that you are only one person and they deal with hundreds of people each day. I wish you good luck in resolving your case.
  10. Yes, yes, I was going to say it had to be around 2014-ish (because even though I personally love the LL viewer, I don't use it that often). I remember being *surprised* that it was there after a fresh system reset a time ago and thought "Wow, when id LL add that from Firestorm?" Hahaha
  11. THEY ALL ARE!!! (My original comment was a joke, this one is not) . LOL
  12. Neverending Story STILL my all time favorite movie since i was a kid! https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_NeverEnding_Story_(film)
  13. Yes, yes. I often see names, that in Chinese, do not match the avater gender (or in some cases what the avatar *is*. LOL Better to go to one of the baby-namer websites and choose one of those names that goes both ways, there are many.
  14. You do know a joke when you see, yes? I rest my case. LOL
  15. Neat'o idea, though I'm not sure it would work. With the predominant paranoia for security orbs throughout SL and very much so on Bellisseria, it would be more like "grief or ban" that "trick or treat". LOL
  16. Ditto this. I will often decline a friendship request when asked and offer my calling card (yes, really) because it's like "letting them down softly"; likes it's not a "hard no". Calling cards are also useful to drop into notecards.
  17. I rez the self-unpacking HUD and answer NO to animation and CANCEL the received folder dialog. Then commence to right-click, choose OPEN, and go about my merry way. I prefer complete and total control over my inventory and refuse to allow any script to dump anything in there. And as stated before: it's my system, just as you have your own system, and others will have theirs. For me the ideal world would be a simple box set to "open" on left-click. See how we all have different preferences? This is why the variety of methods is a good thing, I suppose. But a pet-peeve will alway be a pet-peeve to those who have them. LOL
  18. You can easily edit the attached box and copy from the inventory window. Just saying. My pet-peeve would be the opposite, boxes with a die script when rezzed. Like you (and most people) I also have a system and that system requires rezzing then using the system "open" window where I manually drag the items I want to where I want them LOL The one about auto-subscribing should be listed first and again every other line just to emphasize how utterly evil those are. 👺
  19. I love them Canadians! And it is so endearing that that they call Ham "Bacon," where it is the Americans who call Pork "Ham".
  20. Huh... I thought these angles looked familiar... Bahahaha!
  21. LAQ has an okay one (looks like Asian-mixed-race), so does Catwa (also Asian-mixed). I'm currently using Genus (Classic face) which can be made to look authentically Chinese pretty well (because it's not just the eyes, but the entire head) - I haven't tried Japanese or Korean on it, though - the *BEST* and most accurate Asian heads are at the Genesis Lab store, and the ironic thing is that you can choose any of the v3 Bento heads, the Asian look comes from the skin pack you get (their skins actually shape the head in 3D, not just textures, but depth as well) - and there are two excellent ones: one is Japanese/Korean looking (I forget the actual name of it) and the Fei skin is absolutely the most accurate Chinese face I've seen in all my time in SL up to the moment I write this. Nothing else even comes close. (I'll plop one of my Flickr pictures to who you - at the bottom) I recommend you grab the demo of all the heads and the demo of the Asian faces you're interested in. Then try those demo skins on each demo head because each combination creates a unique look (it's actually amazing they way they work). Good luck! The Genesis "Fei" skin on ... (er, I forget wich head): EDIT to add: This is the other Asian skin on a different Genesis head to create a Japanese look:
  22. McMuffin comes in three types: Egg and pork, egg and another style of pork, and also egg and a third style of pork. It is why certain cultures, I imagine, will never eat an egg mcmuffin because no matter what they call it, pork is as pork does. Oh, and salt. Lots and lots and lots of salt in all their stuff.
