  2. This thread reeks of premium member elitism.

    I've been in SL for 14  15 years. No, I have not been premium the whole time. That does not negate the fact that as a basic member I have spent thousands of USD in SL. I'm not the only one either.

    Some of you are sounding like spoiled, privileged brats.

    I have an uploaded pic of Waynetta Slob which I used to give out to idiots who demanded RL proof that I was worth...whatever the frig it was they thought they had that I would want. Most people didn't recognise who it was, especially if they weren't from the UK (as most weren't), and it does look plausibly like a terrible RL pic, so hilarity did ensue. 
     

    Was it this one with the baby?

    No, I'd never heard of Wayne and Waynetta until I googled it just now. lol

    I know what you're saying, we only have a TV antenna, nothing more. We don't watch sport so we don't need much choice and tbh we usually watch catch up rather than live TV. I prefer listening to Spotify anyway most of the time...….

    And I love my books...……….I would never have a Kindle......books smell better!

    And books don't need charging! or batteries. Or OS updates, etc etc etc.

    Truth is we lost compatiblity anyway. nobody uses anymore SCULPTS, nobody uses anymore system layers (well now tih Bakes on Mesh we are back). We go forward and  now i must talk as creator: if people keep old things then there is no economy, also in rl there is the programable obsolescence, to force people to buy again and again, so Linden Labs need to look forward but with another idea of business

    I still use some sculpts and system layers. Some of the clothing creators still use system layers because many of their customers don't have mesh bodies.

    I have things from as long ago as 2005, many of which are scripted and still work. I'm not deleting them from my inventory just because you think it affects the economy. 

    You can't force people to spend what they don't have!

    You'd probably have to manage without SL...…...or the internet...…...well, they have cable, but it's dire.

    Not a problem for me. The 4 years I was gone from SL... I didn't miss it. And no, I didn't go to another grid or some other VW. I didn't even log into STO during that time. I was busy dealing with 2 deaths in the family.

    There are plenty of times I wish I had never been so eager to have a pc 30 or so years ago.

    Been through many a year without cable tv as well. There seems to be fewer and fewer worthwhile programs (IMO) so there is less and less to watch. I'd be content with an aeriel antenna. I'd even be happy without as long as I have my books. Preferably hardbacks. ;)

    SL did not crash last night so .... power of cat > patched in bugs?

     

    Nerp. Power of wolf who didn't log in because she knew it was going to be messy the first day. Didn't log in yesterday because I didn't want to jinx things. I'm debating about today.

    The clans are friendly enough nowadays!!! And the Skye bridge makes for an easy retreat. We get a lot of TV documentaries on the Clans. They were all bloodthirsty. You need something to keep yourself occupied with weather like that!!!!! But the scenery and remoteness is truly breathtaking. If anyone goes up there, also take in Applecross and the pass of the cattle. On the mainland overlooking Skye, and breathtakingly beautiful. :)

    True. And yes, Skye is beautiful. The other half, (who is a MacLeod) and I dream of being able to afford the trip. We really want to move there but that's just a pipe dream.

    i am back on SL with a paid for account. I read that the new Premium Homes were coming and I thought oooh! I have a look and see. They are better than the old for sure. I do have a few reservations about them for me personally but is all good. Lots of people are pretty happy with them and I can be happy for them

    this is my 3rd paid for account now on SL. I get tempted by land.  Last time was the old Linden Homes and before that the First Land

    I have the biggest grin on my face right now. :D

    Welcome back! I've been wondering where you were! It makes my heart happy to see you. 

    Didn't we go through the history lecture thing the first time we met? LOL

    Nope. I joined SL with my first account in July 2006 so I am ooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooold.

    But I am also a cat. A snow leopard, to be exact. And that means I am extremely egocentric. 

    Neener I'm older. lol

    Me? I'm just a plain old eccentric wolf. ;)

    This is true, but if you just do a simple thank you, you get an IM from the tipper complaining that you didn't thank her the right way, believe me, I've had that happen to me before when I was hosting. You never seem to able to please everyone

    We have owned and operated a few clubs in SL. Not only was I the hostess I also ran the light show for the live musicians. I have never had a resident complain that they weren't thanked the right way. What they did complain about was hosts and hostesses gesturbating  the "Linden love" bull. That was never allowed in any of our clubs.

    You can't please everyone so you have to please yourself.

    Oh well, the great ambience, has been completely ruined now. Whoever passes by that road, cannot enjoy the pleasant view of a rotting corpse in the light of the setting sun anymore...

    Beauty is in the eye of the beholder.

    One man's trash is another man's treasure.

    The world does not revolve around you. There is no excuse or reason for not allowing others to enjoy the things they like. You do not have to go where the alien is. SL is a big place. There is room for things like dead aliens on roads. You may want to go find your sense of humor. You seem to have lost it somewhere along the way.

     

    You know, if you use Firestorm, you can always derender it. Then you won't ever have to see it again yet others will be able to appreciate the humor.

    No problem @Selene GregoireThe weather is so bad on Skye they won't see me in the thick mist. Last time we could see the end of the car and not much else. I did get a nice tartan scarf there though.

    I wasn't sure you'd get the historical reference. Just don't drink any "red wine" while you're there. ;)

    Are you saying that SL's server farm is an inline six in a pickup truck? I don't know any other engine compartment that has enough room for you to stand inside it. And you should hire shorter mechanics. If they're only knee deep, they've gotta be all hunched over to avoid banging their heads into the hood.

    I still wanna park my trailer next to your barn. Even more so now. 👼
