Lindenlabs are secretly" marxists" and have an inner party of favourite oldbie members that are going to "ruin everything for everyone by making things open source" ) BOM was a plot to "make SL ugly forever and raise prices" --- from an infohub user that was convinced it meant SL was retiring mesh objects. "It won't last a year, SL has stopped caring and this is a special signal that they're shutting us down" every time there is a slightest tweak.

She has the knack to bring in the young people. She has a lot of initial sponsorships, I'd be interested to see a "low lindens challenge" from her to give the "No designer friends, no rich friend, no 19K lindens to start with total 100% newb" people an idea of what's out there. (Note: this isn't a bash at all, I'd genuinely be interested to see someone with not much to start with that isn't just going in to make ugly things and troll. It's rare on youtube.)

Wunderlich and Grim bros, both have some items still up at marketplace, but no long in world sadly)

This may sound obvious but make sure you aren't too aggressive with trying to sell the make over before being sure someone is all in. There's a huge amount of drama potential. If your social skills aren't 100% you run the risk of calling someone ugly and then expecting them to pay you to fix it after you've insulted them. You must have a clear notion in your mind that what you like and what a potential client likes could be vastly different to each other. In any creative field where you are working for clients, it's standard that your ideas won't line up exactly. The clients ideas almost always get "right of way". If someone pays you to make them into a glittery punk rock drag queen and you hate punk, glitter, and drag queens and think they're ugly, you still have to deliver the product even if it's soul crushing. It's a business. With that in mind, I'd say ask for a small down payment for any fee above 1k payable up front, so if it turns into a nightmare and the client walks away you still get something.

Look at the world around you- would your club goers REALLY want to stick their hands back into the scorpion when the scorpion pit is probably what they've hoped to get away from by logging in?

If you want people to stop making dumb, hostile responses to you then stop making dumb, hostile threads.

A pet peeve: *Gestures at everything happening above this post*

Is anyone else having issues with the official release with bakes on mesh crashing on login? I can't get it to work at all, I did a clean reinstall and even tweaked some things on my computer and it just refuses to work.. I hope I don't have to wait for the third party viewers to catch up!

I am in a script enabled Linden Premium Sandbox. This is odd.

I've made this script to play a sound from an objects inventory when a user types "one" on channel 23. It should work, it shows up green "script is okay" symbol on the top right corner of the script text box, but it doesn't work, no matter what I do. Help? Here is the script. It's not my sound as that works, and its not the sound files I';ve chosen as those all play fine independently.
