Now I'm seeing what you're seeing. I can't help but notice that one of the merchants has listed a separate listing for the identical same gacha instead of doing one listing with all the copies in that same listing. That doesn't help. I've helped a few people with their listings when they didn't realize they could put copies of the same item in the same folder.

I didn't set to newest first .. never do. That might be why. Let me test.

My results from the same search. I don't know why you are getting so many gachas.

nevermind

@Callum Meriman @Dakota Linden I am going to rescind my opinion after taking a look at some of the listings marked "limited quantity" in the Marketplace. It's just a catch all for everything. It basically means nothing. I just hope that gachas don't get thrown into that mess.

The way you are using the term limited quantity it is not a description of the item for sale but the sellers supply of the item. I really think this is misleading. For instance, if I were going to buy a particular limited edition hair and the supply was limited to only 5 items, that product would be far more valuable than one that has no cut off as to how many can be sold. I believe a category should describe the item being sold. Shoes in shoes, clothes in clothes, etc. The fact the a person has only one of those for sale doesn't mean a darn thing to me. I don't care if they have 1 or 200 unless it is a TRUE limited edition and I'm going to pay a premium price for it. I want to know what the product is not how many a person has to sell. @Dakota Linden when did limited quantity stop meaning the same as limited edition? If you want to fix what you deem to be a problem, then find another solution. This one doesn't work IMO. We have the same spam problem when creators release an item in 20 colors. Get a few doing that at the same time and you have the same result. @Callum Meriman I still don't understand why you can't use the NOT exception in the field when you search. It might not be perfect but it works pretty well if you spell the word correctly. And if you say that people get around that by gaming the system, think about it. Anything you come up with now people will find a way to game it and you're still going to end up with gachas where you don't want to see them.

Well you're asking this now makes me want to back up because what I think it means and what it is could be totally different. But my take and what we've been asking for is the ability to edit without having to go into edit mode. For instance, if I'm walking in my experience and notice that I haven't "planted" a tree it would be great to be able to just reach over and give it a tug without having to go into edit mode.

The problem is most of the people in Sansar don't read these forums. There are many who have never stepped foot into Second Life.

This is indeed exciting news! A lot of us have been wanting this for a long time. The only reason I got on Steam in the first place was to buy Marvelous Designer at a significant discount while it was on sale. I don't play any games through steam. This plainly shows your bias. It's not for you. We get it. But you're also fooling yourself because you really know nothing about Sansar and yet love criticize it at every opportunity.

For sure do this and you need to actually check by trying to return items. Very often something will not visually cross the line but because of it's physics or invisible geometry it will cross the line and you can return those items. Also, do keep a record of her first contact with you in IM where she said you cannot buy that land. Those words along with her actions equate to extortion.

I think this needs a more refined definition because any time anyone is selling a no-copy item that item is limited quantity to them and to them ONLY. Just because something is no copy doesn't mean that the item is from a limited quantity release. IMO only those items, where the supply has been terminated, should be considered as limited quantity. Limited quantity items by their nature are more valuable than regular items. There is a certain amount of prestige associate with a limited quantity item. So labeling no-copy unlimited supply gacha items as limited quantity is misleading IMO.

I have to agree, I never thought limited quantity had anything to do with permissions, it simply meant there were a certain number to be sold and once those were gone the item was retired never to be sold again. This is a very common practice with full perm template sellers, but it also is used for special releases or events. We used to have a regular in world shopping event that had limited quantities sold. Once they were gone they were gone, period. Nearly all of those items were copy items. So, I do think there's some confusion on the terminology. The thing is that gachas aren't necessarily limited quantity items (unless the gacha was retired after the event, typically they are simply no copy items). Just because there aren't any available now doesn't mean there won't be latter. Also, most of the time those gacha machines are still located in world so again in reality the item isn't a true limited quantity. Just because one seller only has one to sell IMO does not make the item limited quantity. I honestly don't think there's a win in this dilemma. It's kind of a damned if you do and damned if you don't situation. I'm just glad it's not my job to figure it out.

Final touches done on my fireplace, I think! I love how the morning sun in SL makes everything so rosy.

I would!! I don't care if I lag like crazy. I just want to see it in person. Yes, I was the kid who kept asking if we were there yet. lol And when the answer was no, I'd say why not? lol

This evening I was reading Inara Pey's blog and saw what looked like a very festive build at Mesmeric Cove http://maps.secondlife.com/secondlife/Silver Lining/75/165/32. The train drew my attention right away, so I climbed aboard. I was so taken with the scene and the lighting that I had to snap a pic or two. Do you think Santa would hire me as a helper?

If I were in your shoes, and I have been though not in a long time, I would do my best to camouflage her walls. Make yourself a nice little home you can be satisfied with, but then I would also set the land for sale but charge an additional 10% of what you paid. Had the person been nice and really wanted the land I might have sold it to her for what I paid and just found something else, but in this case since she is basically extorting you to get that land she doesn't deserve your kindness. Whatever you do don't let her bully you into abandoning the land or selling if for less than you paid.

is there a </forum asshat mode> ?

I think I have a better chance of winning the lottery, and I don't buy lottery tickets, than you do of having you suggestion adopted.

Here's my honest view of SL in MY neighborhood. Three views all at 1024 draw distance. I normally keep it at 120 though. You can see some sky clutter at this draw distance but honestly there's not that much in the sky and since I don't run draw distance so high I never see that clutter. I actually love my view of SL. I guess it just depends where you live in SL.

Follow the signposts was a good hint. Made it out with my books before lunch!

The LI count of the previous two is why I wasn't so sure I was going to hunt for this one because I have no idea where a tree that glows is located in LR. But that book is a must have! So I'm here searching. Someone send a guide or at least a sack lunch.. lol.

So I wasn't so sure I really wanted to get this week's gift, but seeing this now I must have it!!!

I'm not understanding why you want to eliminate gacha items if they fit the criteria of your search. If you're looking for hair and you see hair from gachas does that mean you don't want to see it just because it's a gacha? I love gacha stuff but I almost always buy them on the MP because I'm too stubborn to spend my money on a chance. Please don't make it harder for me to find the cute little gacha items I love. It seems that LL is doing a pretty good job of finding a middle ground for both those who favor gachas and those who do not.

I notice this often myself. The more recent AOs don't seem to have the issue, but there are still many older AOs out there that aren't motion capture based. Also, I see this all the time in animations for furniture. My arms almost never end up where they should be because some animator made the poses for someone with arms much too short.

Wouldn't it be awesome if we could!!! LOL... I'd have too many to choose from and would end up debating until all the ones I actually wanted were already claimed.
