Sorry to sound completely thick but have just joined as Premium User and have absolutely no idea how to use SL. Firstly, does it work onn Mac? If so, how do I get in? How do I create an Avatar? Simply, how do I use it? I'm just getting screenshots etc after I log in. I can't get into the world!


First of all, your question makes no sense at all. When you sign up you are presented with a screen that says 'CLICK HERE TO DOWNLOAD THE CLIENT FOR MAC OR PC.' Incidentally, yes, it runs on a Mac. Second of all, 'just getting screenshots after you log in' makes no sense. If I had to guess I'd say your framerate is ridiculously crappy, in which case your computer sucks and you need to upgrade really bad. Having the ability to actually tell us what the problem is goes a long way to getting help, just for future reference.

To all you SL residents - thanks all so much for your help in assisting me with accessing the SL world. Not.

I posted a thread, over 50 of you have looked at it and not one of you has had the courtesy to answer a simple question ie how can I access the SL screen?

I am a fully paid up member of your world but can't get in. Technical support won't assist either.

Alter ego heads up alter asses it would appear.

I now do not wish to be part of your world which, by the sounds of it, is populated by Americans. Now that would be a horrible world indeed. Just like this one. Perhaps you can destroy SL as well.


Now, this is where you went really wrong. See, you posted in a forum that only employees of Linden Lab can respond to, not Second Life residents. We sincerely apologize for not doing something we can't in the first place. We're very humbled by your witty rebukes.

Additionally, SL answers is not a tech support forum, try calling Linden Labs and getting a customer service rep. Barring that, you could grow some patience. Your post in SL Answers will be answered by a Linden Lab employee eventually. They might be trying to figure out what you're talking about still, too.

And finally, Second Life is very very international. Us shitty Americans will be having a lot of help from the rest of the world in 'ruining' Second Life.

Bye-bye now!

Yes, Mario's first problem was that he posted in a forum where no one but Linden Labs employees can post...and THEN he goes on to berate everyone because they haven't responded to him. Duhurrr. HELLO, WE CAN'T RESPOND TO YOU. I even looked to see if I could PM him via the forum, but it looks like he has both IMs and contact via email disabled. :rolleyes:

Yeah, and I like the anti-American hostility because he's having some technical issues. Real nice.

Mario dude, stay clear of the Braunworth sim, whatever you may do in SL; I'd hate for you to soil your heels on SL land owned and developed by -- GASP -- Americans. Oh the ever-lovin' humanity.

Rusholme, could you please not pretend to be a ResMod with your future posts (as per the TOS section 4.1.ii).

Anyway, I believe it should be moved to Technical Issues (moved to Mac Discussion instead).
