Plants are cool. They give us oxygen and help us stay cooler in warmer weather. Some of them are even good to eat!

Where ever they can stick it to us while we roll over and play dead?

Other half was a professional radio DJ in his younger days. He DJs in SL. Legally, not much has changed over the years. Otherwise... a lot has. I don't care what everyone else says, DJs are not MCs. For those who don't know or remember what an MC is (Master/Mistress of Ceremonies), they are the official host of a ceremony, staged event or similar performance.

Just add another rating. V for Violence. And be glad I don't feel like launching into my V speech.

Well yeah, except if they are really determined to get the account back they can provide certain bits of information that is still on record. Keyword there being still. So they need to take it a couple of more steps and completely wipe from their memory both the user name they registered under and the email address they used to register the account. There's also other info but those are details only LL will know. ETA: The rest depends on whether or not LL feels like messing with it and/or you pay the small reinstatement fee.

My arms aren't 2500 miles long or I would.

It was the idea, not the actual species. People wonder why gators can be found living in sewers. Well, if parents would stop flushing the kid's pet, there wouldn't be any gators in the sewers.

Yeah ... no. My brother is simply a cheapskate. He also tries to blackmail family members and then screams about his money when he is making damn sure other family members don't get all of their inheritance.

Even then people won't stop flushing their unwanted goldfish.

It would be funny if it weren't true. And it isn't just the Mississippi. Asian carp jumping into tourist boats

Tossing your stash in the river isn't quitting. It's just tossing your stash. Same as my brother saying he quit smoking. He didn't quit, he just stopped buying them and started bumming off everyone else. The only way to quit is to make up your mind to stop and stick to it. Wishy washy won't cut it.

People still pay to see movies based on arcade game characters?

Elitism at its finest. Didn't do them any good back then. Won't do them any good now. Unlikely to do them any good in the future. The ones who scream the loudest are the most guilty.

Should I just quit now before I even get my SL business relaunched? Hell, just have LL make it so anyone who doesn't earn at least $50k US annually can't even log in. There was good reason LL made certain changes years ago and you are no longer required to pay a monthly fee to be able to log in after a two week trial (may have been just a week, don't expect me to remember details from 14 years ago). LL needs to make up its mind as to whether or not SL caters to the "elite". If LL decides it is going to shrink its already niche market even more by making SL "elitist" then I will definitely be gone for good. That is not a world in which I would want to be and I damn sure wouldn't pay for it even if I could afford it.

Until they use the password reset. Email address should be changed as well but then again, a new account can always be made. Point being there really is no way to stop yourself from logging in except through shear willpower.

How the heck did I mange to double edit a post and end up with 2...

Oh just click the stupid thing since it doesn't want to load.

You're going to be waiting a while then. LL does not cancel accounts immediately. They do give people plenty of time to change their minds. Something in the neighborhood of 60 - 90 days.

There is one thing LL could do that would entice me into being premium. Well ok, two things. Two free lifetime memberships. One for me and one for the RL other half. As long as we have been in SL and throwing money we can't really afford at it for over 14 years now... I think we deserve it.

But I can't edit anything in RL; or remodel, or rearrange the furniture with no back pain, or change my clothes in a second, or reduce the size of items built for GIANTS, or have a fire in the fireplace on the hottest day of the year without overworking the AC, and so on and so forth. So there!

Nailed it. Except my hair hasn't turned yet. /me runs

Mostly by the young from what I've seen. That doesn't mean it doesn't work both ways. I have experienced it in RL as well. Again, mostly by young people. I grew up in an environment where elders were cared for and respected. Children were also cared for and respected. It's mostly the young adults who are still kind of new to adulthood that don't seem to get it. It's sort of a family thing, you know? Grandparents care and respect for parents, parents care and respect for children, children care and respect for grand children and so on.
