In SL my dream had always been to become famous. Many of my items entered huge fame for a while, but have now started to die down.

Now I just wanna find out who everyone would see as "famous" in second life. A person who is so well known, anyone knows you talk about by first name alone.

Some peopel I think of as famous

Psyra Extraordinair
Hiro Pendragon
Kage Seraph
RacerX Gullwing
Wynx Whiplash

And all the Lindens....


So... who do YOU see as famous?

As flattered as I am ... honestly there are tons of very significant people who work behind the scenes. I realize that's not the point of the thread... but understand behind every famous person is likely one or three not-so-famous people.

These look like forum centric lists to me.

The Lindens are not all famous, I doubt most folks know much about them other than perhaps what their avatar looks like, and that could change any time.

Who knows the difference between Dan and Daniel Linden, for example? Which one deleted the scripting forum?


Hmm, that might be an example of being infamous instead of famous.

We are all special in our own way. Some actively go for the spotlight, others avoid being seen. A large amount of them simply don't advertise.
In my day, we trembled in fear at the mere mention of Ama Omega, Catherine Omega, Dave Zeeman and dreamed of becoming like them. Later came Candie Apple with her lottery and bingo.

Catherine Omega: "...why am I the only one mentioned by name? I'm hardly the best scripter in SL. Yes, I'm one of the louder ones, but I'm hardly the best."

Wednesday Grimm: "I think we all just learned an important lesson about the nature of fame."

Catherine Omega's knowledge on all things technical, cultural, historical and scientific is nothing short of encyclopedic and oracular. All who know her power of intellect are thus awed.

Furthermore, as Second Life goes to the Metaverse, and this becomes an open platform, Linden Lab risks lawsuit in court and [attachment culling] will, I repeat WILL be reverse in court.
