WTF?? Flip you gettin in?

Ok, yeah I'll clean out my inventory...Not much there, just some old contracts, cease and desist orders, party invitations and party hats, some clothes I never wears, the notes on the SL book I'm writing, and who knows what else.

My poems to Mercurious I would never delete, nor my book notes.

So Panda since your started this thread add me to your list!

I say, when we all get on to do this, we declare it SL Day, like Earth Day, because we're doing our part to keep SL trash free :D

Well of course I read the forums. That's how I know more than one person throws stones, and you are one hell of an onager.

Okay, so was it number 2 then?

Sorry I gave you the benefit of the doubt!

There are a couple of new entitlement threads that popped up in the last few seconds. Great place to let it all hang out man. It will probably be cathartic for you to visit those. I think that this thread about people taking positive steps to improve their own experiences might frustrate you.

It looks like it already has you breaking out the thesaurus!

Believe it or not - I had just shy of 4900... I guess I don't win SL.

Thats the great thing about having a short attention span:

"what's this? ah fuggit, if I miss it I'll just build another!"

I can't help thinking though - after being told that the problem areas are find and inventory, what effect will it have when everyone logs in and does a search of thier inv to see how many objects they have?

Siggy.

Nope, I'm not getting in either. I've been pruning my inventory since v1.6 was released... doing a bit here and a bit there during down time :-)

Ha! Olmy, I had that same thought. I was going to limit the plaque to one prim, and one texture for everyone. Nothing too overbearing! I think giving a prim also shows that we don't have to stop using objects in SL, just be more conscious. :)

how about making a monument with people's names?

Good idea! Any ideas for a good place to put it? I have a half-finished indie-rock bar on my land, and would be a little embarassed driving people there to see the monument. :(

You evidently don't read very well, if you somehow think that Pandastrong is a donkey.

Great idea Panda... I was just talking with Alexin about doing some massive inventory work. You can count me in for SL clean up day! I do wonder if it would make any difference in my av's lag if i transferred some of the inventory i really do want to keep to an alt I don't use (ie. holiday objects). I know the storage space is needed regardless but if the avatar is not online would it not improve database performance anyway?

Pondering...

As of one week ago I have 7860 items in my inventory, I should take the time to bring that number under 1000. Count me in.

I'll join the clean-up party.

It would be nice to have some reliable locations where one can find fresh copies of all the free stuff. I have things in my inventory that I only keep because I originally found them in a sandbox or somewhere so I don't know where I would find them again.

Or perhaps, in addition to the Linden-generated "Library" folder, there could be a "freeware" folder that anyone could add stuff to, so none of us would need to be carrying around extra copies of all that free stuff. It would exist once, in the Freeware folder, rather than in hundreds or thousands of people's inventories, unless someone actually wanted a copy in-world. It should automatically check for duplicates and not accept them or delete them or whatever.

Just a thought. In fact, I think I'll post that idea somewhere it could be seen.

Jake...Panda has suggested a really good idea that will help the situation for all of us. I dont know why you felt the need to call him an ass, but he is really a great person who has been unfairly attacked. It doesnt change the forum violation if you try to disguise the name calling by using another word.

Panda did not deserve to be called an ass because you disagree with him.
