"If you think it's LLs fault, it's probably just in your head."

...just read this in a topic today, here, somewhere. Gotta say, probably most idiotic thing I've ever read and shows how ignorant someone can be.

"You're skin's too pale"; "You need a suntan"; "Now you can afford tanning booth sessions" (said by a stranger in a club after I won a contest)....and having a darker skin dropped on me, unrequested, by a "friend."

Excuse me...I LIKE my fair skin and searched high and low to find it.

I'd like to send the person who came up with that little bit of advice on a permanent trip orbiting the world. I'm starting to like bling more than the "talking tummies."

A: WindLight is faster than the old viewer, trust me on this

"Don't go hopping around the map in a loli avatar."

I'm still hearing this... Maybe it was true a year ago, but I'm over 6 months in, I've visited hundreds of regions, and not one incident of REAL harassment or abuse. (=_=)

People who think their personal preference in skin tone should be worn are annoying. I'm even wearing a "normal" (no such thing as normal imho) skin color and *still* get remarks.

:rolleyes:

It's an entry level drug that starts the addiction and leads to much bigger dependencies in the future. (^_^)y

I made my skin from photos of myself. I frequently get comments that it's too pale. *sigh*
