Anyone having this problem? Is someone out there telling me something, was I meant to be a woman?! *laughs* *grrrrrrr*

Each time I tp I change into a very ugly woman in mens clothing. It's even messing up my prim hair, to the point that I cant even fix it. *sighs*

Oh and I too have had the problem with the waist lines not measuring up, hell my pants didnt fit either. Can I fix it? Nope....no mod.

I see Ruth a lot. Someone TP's in. My client gets told "Hey! New av at this location!"
My client pops in a Ruth.

Somewhere down the line the streaming algorithm starts sending Avatar appearance messages, and Ruth's appearance starts to change, first the shape, then the clothes. Then the attachments fly in from somewhere and snap to the new av.

It's a LOT less noticeable if your link is idle, and your latency is low. The higher your network latency and the more loaded your link is, the more frequently Lagnor's avatar, Ruth, will appear like a vision before you.

Mind you, I've never seen this happen to my OWN av, only to other peoples' avs.

And so it came to pass that dark times came upon the grid. The dreaded FumbleWinter (the Sunset in Sunrise) that heralded the coming of Lagnarok.

Cubey, god of the Air Chariots, lay down his tools, vexed at the sight of another Ruth, and set aside his work, saying unto all, "I place down my labours this day, that I might seek the causes of these portents." Thus spake he, and thus he went, not to be heard of again, but for his runes in the forums, and the occasional dance-party.

Torley, goddess of all that was Watermelony, explorer, traveller and trickster observed the signs with wonder. Sweet and perverse child she was, she feared not the coming of Lagnarok, but longed to see what would come of it.

Brace, goddess of Wheels and Heels, lay aside her tools, and left them for her apprentices. "No more," she said, "shall I mould these new children into pleasing shapes. I care not for the attitude of the Giants, and they may do as they will with them." Yet, did she leave her workshop for her apprentices that they might attempt to continue the work.

Then, shall we speak of the hordes of griefspheres that struck the abode of the gods, and nigh sundered the Rainbow Bridge, FullBright? Shall we instead speak of the labours of giants that many sought for their cunning work, yet were as grey fog and mist when grasped?

When the Lagnarok is upon us and then past and behind us, which path shall the bards tell that we have followed, in their songs, and cants and sagas?


Meh. Me? I'm with Torley on this one ;) Whee! :D

Oh, cut me some slack. I just made the whole thing up on the spot. Apologies for any innaccuracies or misrepresentations.

Simple, Tateru: I love it.

And... I got your eScroll too, will be replying when rippleshock strikes me.

"Sweet and perverse child"... I like that! That's an accurate characterization.

You should feel lucky. People IRL pay a lot of money to switch from man to woman, and the process is very long and painful.
