Ask Jake (Almost) Anything

Yes. The easiest way to accomplish this is through the group tools menu. Creating a group is a failry easy and straingthforward process. You will of course need another person to form a political party, since groups require three (I must be a member of all imperial political paries). Selecting "groups" in your wheel menu (left click your avatar) will bring up the menu and it should be easy to proceed from there.

I do not interfere in the internal workings of imperial political parties, however, for your information the group tools do have a variety of options. Also be mindful of the number of groups you are in, as there is a limit of 25.

No. I do not hide in closets with my lap top. I have a very nice lap top and it runs second life admirably. While SL is not completely lag free, if your computer is thre years old and you have lag problems, well think about getting a new computer.

Both, since you asked. *Smiles*

Apparently my response to your question was eaten. In general it said the best way to find out music streams you like, is when you hear one, to ask the owner of the parcel of land. There is a list of streams floating around, which I can send you. The remaining porition of my repsonse will be reconstrcuted. I have not forgetten you, Vivi.

Second life is meant to enhance your first life, not replace it. Second life is not a cult but it is acommunications tool. You will not be whisked aways by the lindens, and given a jumsuit, track shoes and cool-aid.

As far as sanity goes, if you did not come here with it, it cannot be taken away. SL is as sane or insane as you want it to be. What you put into it, wis what you get out. It will not make you insane. As with any activity, however, spending too much time in world can be unhealthy. I advise everyone to take a few days off from SL now and then. When you return you will be fresher and so will the world.

And we do appreciate your freinds coming into the world.

All that being said, SL is an anonymous communications medium, and it is used by many to explore dimensions and aspects of ourselves we would not want to intrude into our RL existence. Very often what we consent to in SL is not, perhaps what we would consent to in RL.

Thus be careful of who you interact with and where the limits are. Do not give our your password or credit card number, ever. Be very careful in sharing any real life information as well. If you wish to communicate via voice, then use of a third party service like Skype is reccomended, rather than phones.

We are all here to have a good time, and this is apositive and vibrant community. Still a little caution is well placed, and prople should be very undersstanding and respectful of your privacy.

Jake - where can I get a really well-made, low priority female AO? I have one I love by Abraminations but it's high priority and I have to constantly turn it on and off to do anything else except stand and look coy.

Thanks,
GW

/me lets loose a curtsy in the general direction of your omniscience.

I don't reccomend a low priority A/0. It means a lot of annoying head turning and typing gestures and such. I suppose you could incorporate low priority animations into any over ride.

Now most of the time you will be using vehicles or furniture, so I like the DNA by lost dog. This enables you to disable the sit animation, which means that using vehicles or furniture is much easier. I am not sure there is anyway to not have conflcits with animations and gestures, but this seems to be a good compromise.

Thank you, Jake!

and your question is?

*grins*

This one comes from my Inbox. As always I will assume questions submitted to me via PM are anonymous unless I am specifically told otherwise.

"Dear Jake:

Where can I find a Taur (Minotaur from WoW) avatar.

Bullish in Besma"

A good question. Given my own fondness for Minotaurs in GW, I should know the answer to this. But so far the only place I have found with Minotaur avatars is the Werehouse. They have a pretty decent looking full prim minotaur. It is not my taste, as I have a very specific image I am looking for, but I have seen these on, and they look good.

As far as I know these are the only minotaur avatars in SL.

If anyone knows any different let me know. And don't forget to as questions.

hmm Minataurs are bull headed , though

Where can I find a Leprechaun avatar?

Jake, I know there is a Flintstone village in SL, but is there a Smurf village? If so, where?

Is there a server at linden labs secretly trying to turn all of SL's users into batterys in order to provide power for an army of robots that will destroy the human race?



Also, what is an A/O?

Would it make more sense for people to start a thread for their question which will have a thread title that relates to their question than to post their question in this thread, given that the OP could anwers their questions placed in normal topic related threads just as well as he could in this self promotional thread?

Yes. Contact Aimee Weebler for more information regarding the SL-human race destroying robots.

An AO is an animation override. It replaces the basic animations you avatar uses to walk run, fly, stand, sit..etc. Instead of using the default animations, you use animations that are presumeably more realistic, sexier, or evoke better images of the Matrix.

You have a leprechaun avatar.

Step 1 go to the appearanced editor.

Step 2. find the height slider (under body) and set your height to about 35

Step 3. Go to the face section in the appearance editor and set everything that has to do with your nose to about 75. The uglier the better, though you can always adjust to taste.

Step 4. Save all as Gaybot Leprechaun Shape.

Step 5. Buy Meekal Kilara's St. Patricks Day Tuxedo in emerald green

Hi Jake,

What will a 512m parcel of mainland be worth in 3 months?

Jake,

Are you available in the form of an LSL script? I'd really like to have a copy of you that I can keep around for local queries. This thread is both fun and informative. I apologize in advance for the abundance of statements interposed within my single question.

Out of the fear of being spanked I have to ask will you please accept this reply as a thank you for which it is intended to be? lol?

Do you spank avatars for pleasure or business purposes and how do you file your taxes for this? Do you get offended if you're not sure what their first life gender matches the second gender? LOL
Seriously how is best way I can scupt the perfect prim curve tush on my prim pants?

Im being bad for answering this question, since Jake gives the answers.

But I do the spankings!

Its neither business , nor pleasure - its the rules!

Theres no taxes involved. Ill spank people of either or neither gender.

Ive found the way to get the most round bottom is to have the hip length number close to the butt size number.

Although that sounds like a trick question since pants dont come in prim versions - skirts do. And Prim skirts dont show your bottom anyhow.

Skirts in general dont show your bottom - thats why I like the micro mini's done on the jacket layer.

..people say theres no stupid questions .. I often wonder.

hello. i spent couple hours trying to figure out how to exit the welcome area. any help, please?
thanks
