  1. Heh, well I figured that, being in SL since 2006, it's about time I put myself to helping out a little on the forums. Never hurts to have a nutty corner to joke around a little from time to time.

    Nice to meet you all! :smileylol:

    Do I need to do a hello-i-am-mr-something-and-i-live-in-somewhere-and-i-do-stuff post? o.O

     

    Also! Here's a pic of what google seems to return as the most awesome picture on the internet:

  2. Prims are related to the parcel they belong to, at 20m or 40.000 m high. If they are prims from someone else, you can send them back (if you own the land). Do this in the about-land menu. You can refresh the list of prims and see the owners. You can then choose to return prims you do not recognise.

    Good luck :)

    I ll refrase that for you, Why would you want to find someone that was so rude as to disapear

    Well, that's something I wonder too... but, if you read some of the stories on here (and hear similar stories in-world), you'd think there are a lot of people that just want an answer. I agree with you that, when someone would be rude enough to just leave you behind, I wouldn't want to talk to 'em anymore either... but there are people who think otherwise, and I sympathise with 'em. :(

  4. Don't be catty.

    The fact that some (a lot, actually) choose to just leave without notice after having what some might call a friendship, or more is just flatout rude. I can understand that some people would want to know the who, where and why. If your best friend would just be off the face of the earth, wouldn't you like to know why?

    As I said in a previous post, I agree that this might not be the best solution, and I was thinking out loud as I reckoned there should be a way for those who are heartbroken to at least come to terms with the why and how... It is in that light that I find your remark that it's all about people that don't want to be found a little blunt.

    Quite a temper tantrum.

    Oh, on the problem you seem to be having.  Things change.....sometimes in less than a minute.  I would think anyone who names themself "Professor" would understand that.  That same person (being someone who wants everyone to think of them as a "Professor") would be smart enough to know that we are just residents and not associated with Linden Lab beyond being "residents" (just like you).  So all the shouting did nothing for me except show me that you are far from a "Professor".  More like a child with a broken toy crying because their precious toy was not working like it did before it broke.  Odds are the problem exists on your end..........it has nothing to do with that kind of programmers.  If you, "Professor", had an inkling of what is envolved in the programming of Second Life, you would never diss the people who developed the platform.

    And, just so you know, I don't care how much you have invested in SL.  If you invested a substanial sum of money (which you implied that you did) and don't have a clue about what you invested in, then, "Professor", you need to go back to school.

  6. Hey MyAlt! :)

     

    The trouble with your request is that you aren't literally 'buying' something, even though we talk about buying land. What you do is paying a one-time setup fee (or transfer fee, whatever you wish to name it), then pay a monthly 'service fee' for maintenance, service and more. You can very well compare this to having a .com domain. You will have to pay for this on a monthly or yearly basis because of maintenance and 'usage right'.

    I reckon someone would be able to seal a deal with you for permanent land-ownership if the stakes are high ebough but seeing as you pay (from the top of my head) 195 us$/month (so 2340/year), you'd have put down a couple of years worth of that on the table to be considered, from a business point of view... and let's be fair, it'd be better to do 195/month than a one-time payment of, say, 10k.

    Good luck :)

  7. If memory serves, a 0L$ selling limit is associated with new resident accounts with no payment info on profile. This canhave something to do with the lack of payment info on your profile, but seeing as you bought some L$'s already, you should have that info.

    The second option (and probably the most logical one) is that your avatar is to new to be able to sell L$'s. The amount will auto-up in a few days, then more after about a month.

    Good luck :)

  8. Thanks for the replies everyone. I think I have spoken a little too quickly and while my initial thought was obviously focussed on providing help... I guess the facts around possible ToS violation and invasion of privacy, not to mention becoming a hive for stalkers are all too true.

    Thanks for thinking along though! :)

  9. Hola Gaara! Voy a intentar mi mejor esfuerzo para responder a su pregunta, pero mi español no es perfecto.

    El mercado ofrece varias formas de hacer publicidad de sus artículos. Usted puede hacer esto mediante el pago de una SL y siete, quince o treinta días de "mejora" de su anuncio. Esto significa que su producto se mostrará con mayor eficacia.

    El 5 por ciento que se menciona es una comisión sobre sus ganancias que usted hace de la venta de artículos. Por ejemplo, si usted vende un artículo digno de 100L $, SL pone 5L $ de eso.

    No hay que pagar en "vender" artículos libres, creo. Había una vez una idea para cargar artículos libres para 99L $ al mes, pero yo no creo que esto se ha hecho nunca.

    Además, no hay que olvidar que cuando se "pagan" su dinero a su tarjeta de crédito o PayPal, un 2 por ciento de esa cantidad (o 1 dólar, lo que es más) se paga comisión a SL.

    Espero haberte ayudado. Lo siento por mi mal español. ¡Buena suerte! :)
