OMG how i hate to see people leave There for a damn life in second life. There is way way better we have history stuff that happend before avatars set foot on our world. Second Life "shapes the world in to what it is today" oh bla bla bla. We have space and other moons and planets to build on second life has just a small small small round world. We have a how can i say it civilized world second life has no lawa or rules of any kind we have a goverment second life does not. The way avatars look their faces and stuff is way better and guess what you dont need DSL or high speed to play There. Plus second life uses scrips to build thats just damn to hard my god. Oh almost forgot my favorite pic ha ha its funny the pic.

*chuckles*
*begins to laugh* *falls on his back laughing, can't breath* Oh god. This is classic. Take notes everyone. Not only does he avoid making sense, he also avoids anything resembling a coherent point, as well as any factual data about EITHER world. This is hilliarous. Great friggin stuff. Really. |

You aren't even worth wasting my time refuting.
It's evident from your post you don't have the slightest hint about what SL is, or what it contains, or allows you to do. Or even what the point of it is. So there isn't really any reason for me to discuss it with you. |

It was created by the residents. Code isn't cheap or free either, it takes time so you can ignore your wife & kids in SL too. There is designed to appeal to the sweet spot of that audience – focusing on the casual and regular chat and instant messaging user, not the tech-geeks. In fact, There expects its audience to skew more towards women than men, at least at first. Why? Well according to CEO Tom Melcher, "men will go where the women are, but the reverse isn't true." http://www.extremetech.com/article2/0,3973,811464,00.asp There's your history. Now that's a brilliant (sexist) plan. The superior product is RIGHT HERE. _____________________

I have never experienced There, and with a representative such as yourself, I now consider myself fortunate I haven't, nor do I ever want to.
Know what sucks worse than SL AND There? *Minors posting useless inflammatory posts on this or ANY forum *people who do not use punctuation when writing. ( forget lack og gramatical kills and spelling ) so... If your "game" is so much better over There... why aren't you THERE? ~L~ _____________________

One question you have to ask yourself kool:
Why are you on the SL forums when you cherish your precious There so much? I would think that someone that loves There and hates SL so much would not spend so much time on the SL forums. So please please do us all a favor and go back to paying an arm and a leg at creating the stuff that you believe that you are good at creating and quit wasting our time. P.S. you dont have to script to create awesome objects. |

...Psst.... Kool *Snickers at the name*
*whispers* Kool... I got a GREAT idea for you... come closer... yeah, that's it... listen... why don't you go back to There and continue worshiping your monkey-god? I'm sure it wants you back. It's ok, Kool... go on... yeah, that's it... now make sure you stay there, ok? ![]() _____________________

uhhh, all your base are belong to us?
I can just picture you in There hangin out with your "Unique" hoverboard. Same as everyone elses, except a really cool color.. It even matches your $5000 t-shirt. You probably mad it with Theres In-world LEGO BUILD system. As for scripting.. Well, if you had the brain capacity to see what you could do with it, then you'd understand. PS: Any of the builders in SL push out better vehicles than your generic "Buggy" EDIT: Once ruled by monkeys, Now roamed by ass-monkeys. Sounds fun. _____________________

if you want us to get along why are you insisting There is better? It's simply a choice. People in SL are creative, people in There enjoy the simplicity ![]() _____________________

Kool, I don't think your fears of a "war" between SL and THERE are grounded in reality. They both have their strong points and have specific things they do really well.
A lot of people who hang out in THERE can't join SL because they would need a better connection, a better computer, or a few more birthdays. I don't think you'll find many people here who want to bash those people because they like that place. I've tried THERE (briefly) and felt like it was missing a lot of the spontaneity, freedom, and creativity that I was used to in SL, but if you just look at it as a chat program with a few built in games - it is awesome. I'm curious why it is that you think Second Life is all about scripting and lacks parties, vehicles, games, etc? Many of us who love Second Life don't really know any scripting and haven't bothered to learn. Still, I end up playing with a vehicle or going to a party or Jeopardy or Yatzee, or Darts, or Pool, or Bowling, or Skydiving or riding the rapids on an innertube all the time. And the great thing is that people all around me are making new games, events, and attractions daily. |

What i find with playing SL is it is too tooo hard to use i mean the in world building is what makes it hard u have to use scripting to build but with There we use a There program and one call Gmax they are easy to use u start with something in SL u have just room to build upon nothin to work with i like There cause its simple and u build with things and u can make any thing u want with gmax we just dont want to do the stuff u guys do we have stuff already built for use like Fun Zones and Pazes and then building that the makers made in beta i mess up my avatar and mess up other peoples things when i try to build we are very very very very very very very very very passionate about our game or we dont think of it as a game but a life now There is about just a bit no real but SL is far far far from real life if u are going to think of a game as a life u want it to be like real life dont u or i am going crazy see what i am saying and i find the people in SL are i am sorry if this comes out the wrong way but they seem to be out casts could not find friends so they build and build upon a blank world that has not history or futurer There started with 300 people in beta no over 3,203 people are members and about 10 join each week and STAY i see people leaving SL all the time ok and we are working on making a Burning Life in There as well so i hope u all come in world for that it is still in planing but it will work out
