    Texture rant

    You made me realise an odd thing as I know few professionals selling stuff in SL and few of them I followed from other digital design places where they sold exactly the same things but properly optimised while in SL they barely load. It is not the engine as they clearly use different model...

    Do You Keep Your Second Life A Secret?

    Used to talk more about SL in 2005 - 2009 time period as was really active then to the extent I had SL video and radio work in my uni profile (my uni of course was one of those that jumped to immediately make a virtual campus they forgot about the next day. It is still there.) and was...

    Oh them feels *PICS*

    I miss old SL forums :( . The semi-independent ones that run on a different page that of which url I forgot. Back then there was also a Polish forum for SL that was very active due to a lot of folks being involved in political activism and needing a space government would not peek into. Seems...

    Hearing some tall tales about age play over enforcement?

    I doubt they ban anyone unless the person has an obvious child avatar that acts like a child and posts / writes stuff that break ToS. Seen same panic on various Discords about people complaining that others reported them for 'age play' while they had adult avatars (note: some had anime ones but...

    Covenant Dispute

    The bit I am not getting is that it is SL and folks tend to make a lot of things in their homes that are just decorative and not functional similar to what Eunoli said above me. I get both OP and you acted unprofessional and that the version on times and what happened keeps changing plus SL does...

    Covenant Dispute

    I still do not get how having club objects means you run a club now, since I have few bars on one of my parcels for photos but they are not actual bars. As long as exterior is within zone's building theme, it should not matter what is inside unless it is illegal, scripted mess or such. I simply...

    Covenant Dispute

    As far as I know, you are allowed to put items out in SL that can be anything unless it is in breach with region maturity level. So she could have had objects that are club related but it still does not mean she runs a club. What if it was a set for a picture? It could have been a supermarket...

    Covenant Dispute

    This thread made me really uncomfortable. Is everyone best mates with the estate owners? Because this thread reads exactly like this. True, if you own your own sim and rent it out, you can evict people within seconds if you so please but if they pay you - it is quite dodgy not to refund and...

    SL kills my internet connection, how is this even possible?

    I am envious! Our Glasgow and Brighton ones suck :( .

    SL kills my internet connection, how is this even possible?

    Could be as Europe generally was affected. Hope it returns to normal soon :( .

    SL kills my internet connection, how is this even possible?

    Do you live in UK? If yes, our speed had been drastically lowered since the beginning of the year and thus far never returned to normal. I assume it is worse throughout the day

    Tricks with Bakes on Mesh

    I do need HUD for initial setup mainly :P and I tend to need to refiddle with something often. I guess it is because their current HUD is all on one page and I never read to the side well due to misaligned lenses (when flickr updated to grid, I stopped using it on PC entirely and use it only on...

    Tricks with Bakes on Mesh

    I have worn everything correctly and just to see tested the applier version which did work (in same package that is). It could be recent UK internet issues but I still loathe the new UI Slink did :P .

    Tricks with Bakes on Mesh

    I updated one Slink body out of curiosity and it is still a mystery how on Earth it works to me as could not set it up. I pretty much used all the bodies by now and those that updated to BoM are fairly simple (although, took me a while to realise Omega Evolved does nothing to Maitreya but they...

    LL hit a hardware limit.

    I would not mind buying out the mainland sim we are on as we are almost on half of it now as we cannot afford to pay for a full sim. However, I assume the lease still would be 200 quid which is a tad bit too much. I am not very surprised SL is running out of current space with server move as...

    Who views all those SL fashion blogs.

    I think people only check blogs if they need to look up something in the credits. I used to read a lot of SL blogs, even fashion ones before the whole 'event every day' and sponsorships happened. Does anyone remember the time shops asked popular bloggers to showcase items and not the other way...

    Now Available: Change your name in Second Life

    I would not pay a quid for the dubious pleasure of of being called Crispy Crisp which is the only pun I could come up with based on the options available. I would maybe pay up to 10 quid for our old options to be back.

    Genus DMCA'd

    My money is on their ex-coworker who had a burst of activity on old Genesis Labs account. But with SL brands nowadays ... it is hard to tell.

    Yay! Holy Shit! AnyPose Now Works with Fate Hand Poser

    I doubt they updated since last I checked on anypose but the only extra function is to rez poseballs for other people and pose them. Animare has that in their plus version. I bought anypose before I heard about animare and yeah ... money tossed into drain (I mean it does exactly same thing with...

    Second Life Targets Corporate Sector During Travel Lockdown

    That is the funniest thing I read in a long time and I really appreciate flying dongs now. What I really, really want to know is how this person kept all the sims from snogging everyone they are not meant to? And no one started a fire? I think it is fake, I think the government is covering...
