  1. @Ayashe Ninetails, you brought up a very interesting point with the bar vs. dance floor thing. And I think it's something everyone notices but not everyone can put their finger on, that is subtly awkward. IRL people don't chat while dancing, because they're moving all around (and probably working the dance floor, so to speak), and not really doing what people do when they just want a friendly chat. People do, however, as a rule, want to chat and make friends when they're hanging out around the bar area of a club and aren't in a hurry to be away to the dance area. Places with no music or dancing, other than the occasional jukebox and person drunk enough to dance on the bar, it's practically the entire reason people are even there. They don't feel like being alone, and want human company and conversation, or they'd just be doing shots or whatever at home. You can get a six-pack for what a single beer costs at a bar, after all. People don't go there for the alcohol. They go there to make friends and have good chat. But then again in SL when a club has a bar attached, hardly anyone ever hangs out in that area when anything is going on with a group of people. They're always out on the dance floor, over half of them lost in IMs, lol. Between reality and SL, things like this are like the neck seam. Mostly unnoticed, but once you see it, it can be kinda uncanny. XD
  2. The list is not a list of "approved"TPVs. It never was either. Listed TPVs are those that have self certified that they adhere to Linden guidelines for such Viewers. That's it. That's all it has ever been. People really need to stop putting forward the false belief otherwise.
  3. Doing exactly what you advised took some of the glow away, but the redness and pink are still there. I appreciate you, thanks!!
  4. IMVU and VRC did it right for years and years now . From the beginning , their most popular places show up on top of the search list by default . Without even having to type anything in . The fact that SL still hasn't found a way to imitate that , is quite frankly , disgusting . And yes , most people didn't know the Bonnie bots were doing any of that . And then then , using that third party website , still wasn't as easy as IMVU and VRC 's simple search function .
  5. Good question... The truth is, I already have everything at this point… Why buy a new body or a new head when I already have plenty, in all styles, and I don’t even know what to wear anymore. I absolutely don’t have the time or enough occasions to wear everything I’ve frantically bought, and instead of sorting through and searching my inventory, I go shopping. Hair and skins, I’ll probably still buy some, even though I’ve already bought so many I’ve never worn, not because I don’t like them, but because I forget I even have them. So I think if I had 20,000L to spend for my avies, I’d do what I always do: buy anything and everything for no real reason. Might be better to share when you don’t have a specific plan, give some money to friends, to noobs (even though the noobs I meet these days don’t wait long before pulling out their credit card), and especially tip the sims you enjoy.
