What you could do is get a rl friend to watch over your shoulder and thump you every time your avatar gets hit.



cheers!


Snorting Pepsi - and that hurt as I have a really bad cold right now!!!

Also, made my ribs (which are sore from all the coughing the last few days) hurt from laughing.

But the third job, some call it, uh, "the show" or "the big dance," it's the profession that every linden aspires to.

Ohhh, THANK YOU, Maggie :)

(Really sucks being sick and not able to get out and get those kinds of "necessaries." I swear I'm going to start a little "stockpile" of such for these kind of emergencies *winks*)

EDIT: In addition to beer goggles...I'm thinking some kind of sheer covering for monitors would be handy for all the various liquid snorting that goes on around here. ;)

Remember when one could purchase the plastic coverings for keyboards so crumbs and such wouldn't get in them? I guess they can still be purchased somewhere but I haven't seen them and when I asked my computer guy years ago he said they really weren't used anymore since keyboards were so inexpensive to replace.

This sounds like a good business venture for someone...like me. For $30.00/hour plus expenses and travel, I'll come over to your house and watch you play video games or run around on SL. Every time you get hit, I'll smack you. If you get bumped into in Sl, I'll shove you off your chair. Fall off a bridge into the ocean, get a bucket of ice water over your head. Fly your airplane across a sim line and I'll dismantle your living room. Check your inventory and I'll back a moving truck up to your house and empty it out. Go dancing with your SL boyfriend, I'll get drunk and step on your toes.

I draw the line at the sexy stuff, though. There's only so much I'll do for $30/hour.

Hey,

I don't know if i'm at the right place but ok I don't have the game but I want to find out by you guys if there is a realistic force suit that will if someone in the game hit you you must feel it. Please let me know. And what goggls is the best for this type of gaming?


Hi Markles,

I would suggest first coming into Second Life and deciding if it is the place for you before worrying about any such additions to your gear. Second Life is not that sort of game, by and large.

There is not currently, to the best of my knowledge, any such force suit. Might be interesting if there was.

It is unlikely that any sort of goggles could help you out with Second Life, either.
