Actually no it's yours that are creepy. You are forcing YOUR projections onto what I reply to @Bagnu. I have no problems with her being an escort. I have spent a lot of my SL being an unpaid one myself (ie a sl*t) so have NO hangups or problems with anyone who expresses themselves sexually in SL. The only beliefs I have about her are what I express in my replies - that she just doesn't care about the consequences of what she posts because she is all about the attention (which she has admitted to). I have constantly said, I don't have a problem with @Bagnu as a person. My problem is in what she says. But I guess you are spending too much time charging to the rescue and playing armchair psychologist to actually listen to what anyone else says because it's not fitting your narrative.

I'm sorry, but this...no. You cannot spend thread after thread bleating on about being an escort and how people don't accept you for it (when in fact we do, it's just the continuous bleating about it we disagreed with), have white knights and virtual signallers charging to your defense and rescue and building you up into this sort of misunderstood tart with a heart persona and that the rest of us are soul killing meanies, and say stuff like "I'm trying to understand my place here by ignoring all the critiques and advice I am given cos actually I'm really annoying and just want the attention"...and then when asked why you don't change that if you know it's annoying, turn around and say "BLOCK ME THEN." THIS is why you get the negativity from so many on your threads. If you gave one hoot about it, you would do as so many suggested and took a breath and reflected on what you are actually saying, instead of just jumping in and saying it without caring who it offends, how it will be taken and how it's making you look.

Oh believe me, I'm not worked up. Just gotten home from work and debating cooking dinner and in a wonderful mood actually. Like I said before, I do try not to attach my emotions to these boards or I will just up and leave. I just don't like being told I am a "soul killer" just because I disagree with something.

No-one has ever said @Bagnu is abusive. I have to agree with something I saw @Scylla Rhiadra said a while back (and paraphrased by me as I cannot be blowed looking for it), she has always maintained a light hearted dignity when we do disagree with her. No-one is trying to "destroy her soul" or the "essence of who she is"...that is the most ridiculous thing I have seen said! Over and over again, EVERYONE has REPEATEDLY said we accept and don't care WHO or WHAT she is! You do you booboo. However, she has SAID things that have offended people. The disabled person comments, then the moral quagmire about taking sexytimes pics with someone recognisable and seemingly not knowing that it's wrong. @Bagnu has also said I am always popping up to give my two cents and judgment of what she is up to now (again paraphrased) and in some threads I can be scathing in my criticism of what is being said, and in others, I interact quite pleasantly with her. I do not hate her, and I do not actively dislike her. I dislike some of the things she says however. BIG DIFFERENCE. It's become such a scary world where people cannot talk anymore without one side shouting the other down and "cancelling" their rights to have a different opinion and viewpoint on a subject.

I have to say that I am confused by the exchange where @Amina Sopwith says you don't try to understand us, and you reply that you are trying to. My example is coming from the recent thread about posting pictures with recognisable people. You got very mixed responses in that thread. Some comical and fun, but most were indignant that you even had to ask that. Your replies flip flopped all over the place and you seemed to contradict yourself several times and to not really care about the moral issues brought up. Then when things weren't going your way, you appeared to throw your toys out of the crib and left the thread after saying "I got my answer"...to a question even a child would know was a huge "yeah...no!" And from the encounters I have had and seen you have with others, I (again) have to agree with @Amina Sopwith that I honestly don't think you are taking in what we're saying...as so eloquently vocalised by @Seicher Rae. As I said previously, there is only one person on these boards I would say that I hate. There are several I may even dislike. I try not to attach emotions to my postings or I would be a bigger basket case than I already am.

I know her younger sister and actually met her once at a party.

I am gonna raise my hand and be honest here. I do judge people by the company they keep. However, it's not because of a "job" or because they choose to spend their SL being a ho (paid or unpaid). I have been in SL for donkey's years and have seen and experienced some pretty heinous stuff done by some people, and I don't forgive easily. So if I knew someone who was hanging out with or friendly with someone I have had a bad experience with, yes I'll most likely judge them for it, maybe distance myself from them because of it, but at the end of the day, I know it's my drama to act in, not theirs. Do I warn them? Not really. I may say something like "Yeah I don't get on with *insert name here* so I would rather keep my distance and not be involved with anything they are." Other times I am a bit more blunt and say something like "*insert name here* is a 'see you next tuesday' and fudged me over bigtime but hopefully treats you better, so be careful." Just because I had a bad experience with them doesn't mean everyone else will after all. It does however make me less inclined to stay around to watch and question how they cannot see someone for who they are.

Before I do the singling out quotes and elaborating as to why I agree or disagree with them, or add my little spin, lemme just point something out that happened to me and at least one other person I know of on these boards. We had a "friend" of yours harass and attack us for no other reason than the fact that we disagreed with you on these boards. So the knife can cut both ways.

Usually it's always MY alts!!

Jordan is going to kick the bejebus out of Orwar when SL let's her log in again for making her refer to herself in the third person (which is STILL creepy!) and for always peeking-her-boo!

And here I was thinking you were a big fluffy bunny of sweetness and sprinkles.

Is this SL's way of telling me I should go to bed?

Let the freak outs begin!

Don't take that personally. I'm in a dark place at the moment and don't really talk to anyone inworld. Yes, cept you creepy third person @Orwar. I do reply when you pop in my IMs to say "hi".

I get concerned when you say you get hatred, because as one of your most vocal thread opponents, I wonder if you lump me into that category. I do not hate you as a person, but I do hate or disagree with some of the things you have said or say you do. There is only one person on these boards I can honestly say I do hate, but it relates to inworld stuff not board stuff.

How about stop promoting yourself as "porn" and starting threads that are just extensions from other threads (ie this topic was touched upon in the naughty pics on Flickr thread). I haven't seen any hatred towards you, the person, in these threads. It has been dislike of the things you do or say and your total disregard of the consequences for them that has people being negative towards you. As @RowanMinx said, unless you name and shame them, or they do it themselves, we won't know (and in my case won't care) who your friends are. Edit - Referring to yourself in the third person in the title is just creepy!

I wouldn't give them my lindens either.

Just pointing out that if you go to a location where the owners have decreed a certain look (ie must be human avatars) and you rock up as a centaur or furry or cute little elf, well you are going to asked to humanise your avatar or leave. Some places do ask for a level of avatar looks and whilst it might be snobbery, well it is their place, their rules and their prerogative to do so.

I agree 100% with everything @Tari Landar has said and posted, being a judger myself! But one thing missed in this whole debate... Taking pictures is NOT easy, especially when they are pictures taken "in action", so to speak. You need to get the angle and lighting right, and capture the "action" just at the right moment where everything is in just the right position and body parts are where they should be - not going into the bed or each other etc. That takes so much time and concentration (been there, taken MANY action pics). I would be pissed if I had paid you thousands for a pixel bone and instead of being the focus of your attention and you there to fulfill my needs you were dicking about with camera angles and trying to catch the right pic instead of dicking about with me.

That's what my M-Alt is used for...cept I don't take *that* sort of picture...for public consumption anyway. And he lacks a certain part of anatomy needed for those anyway. He just comes in handy when I need a male bod for a picture since I no longer have available male photo props.

Try searching MP for SEmotion gacha HUDs. There are some Genus ones about if you search for them. Or you can hit the store and play the machines yourself.

I may misunderstand the gist of this thread and it's meant to be instrumental music...but I can't help myself from posting my fav song, which was used as a movie theme song.

Unfortunately Itty Bitty closed a couple of days ago, but I do recommend checking out the gallery on the Seraphim site (under Fairs) and then you can get an idea of some of the stores who are embracing the petite option and then you can look for them instore or at future events. Itty Bitty is going to be a monthly event, so look for it again in Sept. As a petite convert, some stores I recommend who have also embraced it... Fleur, Erratic, Ricielli, Violent Seduction, Dead Doll, Masoom, Salt & Pepper, Addams, Blueberry, Tetra (check out their Collabor88 release!), Adorsy. Be sure to check the vendor posters and demo to ensure that there is a petite option as it is a new thing just starting out and older releases may not be updated with it yet. Edit - dropped Battlecat a NC with some links. Hope it helps!
