Yeah, SL needs to be more realistic. Sit is absolutely rediculous that it stops push. As in real life, when someone pushes me if i'm sitting, i fall off the chair. As also in real life, when i use my jedi mind power to launch someone 100 million meters in the air, the chair doesn't stop them. And last week when i was at the bar, some guy tried to shoot me, but luckily i had my shield and physics disruptor on and it launched his bullet out of the way, but when he bumped me I still fell out of my chair! I then simply flew home because my "teleport to my appartment" button wasn't working. pfft, sitting stopping push, that's rediculous! How can SL be so unreal? </sarcasm>

I suspect you only want this, because you think you will be selling more shields. :rolleyes:



The Sion Shield doesn't stop push ;), however it does do retaliation (not sure if push is involved).

I'm sure some noob scripter in Ahern can help with a nice non-physical sit or maybe give a nice Irish Lass hat to sit on. I'll ask around for help if anyone wants :cool:.

Oh well, I guess back to my SL reality where I can make boxes to sit on using my magical hand beams.

p.s. - Sion, were you just insulting me or were you showing me that your younger years of "know it all" did not include the applications of grammar as seen by your post? ;)


Calix, i just insulted you because

a) you keep on trying to devaluate my item in sl-exchange
b) i just hate it when threads go off-topic, just because one idiot wants to proove wisdoms.

however, you might be a nice chap tho, im just talking about a small piece of personality i got to know.

finally i apologize for my bad grammar, my native language german. :)

"just because one idiot wants to proove wisdoms."




“Better to remain silent and be thought a fool than to speak out and remove all doubt.” - A. Lincoln

Feel free to type more to help your cause whilst providing me with 'wisdom', because no matter the sticks nor the stones that won't change the fact there is no need to remove sit from the game. The reasons for having sit feature in-game have been enumerated here quite well by many people who don't feel the need to insult and impose their ideas on others.

I wonder if you would have the desire to remove sit if your shield had that as a feature?


Hmm... ;)

it is a piece of cake to code a "driving chair".

i will paste the definition of a shield again:

"A shield is a protective device, meant to intercept attacks. The term often refers to a device that is held in the hand, as opposed to armour or a bullet proof vest."

(you should know that as an language-fanatic)

so do not call those sit stuff "shield".

AND for the third time, i'd also love it if there was an option where you could easily disable pushes from other avatars. so wouldn't that be harmful for my business?

A. If it's so easy why not make it open source code, like the freebie guns that cut thru your lack of sit feature like a warm knife through butter?

B. Is your new HUD shield, which also attacks, worn on your hand as your beloved definition of a 12th century shield states?

C. Does your shield use push in retaliation?

D. Don't you claim to dislike push?

E. What is the point of your argument/insults/proposal/ideas about SL need emotions and to be more like RL?

D. Who cares... :cool:

For everyone saying make it so you cane be pushed while your sitting to make second life more relistic you theres a eaiser method, Switch off you your computer, walk to a chair, sit down oh look cant get anymore realistic than that.
