From: Whimsycallie Pegler Well sandbox luck doesn't come to everyone. Anyone could treat me that way, if they wanted to. From: Argent Stonecutter I said "people are going to be more interested in the Yumi who's not in that rut you're wallowing in." When I'm not in a rut, I have nothing to post and the areas on SL are still empty or filled with howling..

From: Argent Stonecutter The market doesn't vanish when someone buys something. I have several ferret avatars. I don't need six different ferrets. I just bought them because the new one was better. Well, it seems to me that it does. I never improved on Prim Docker because, if people weren't happy with the features it had, why did they buy it?

From: Yumi Murakami Oh, I know how to be a friend..... Oh...ok....I guess I learned differently....or experience something entirely different from a friendship.....most certainly Not the behavior I see here.... Just a personal opinion.

yumi..i have no clue who this sandbox dude is...no idea what his luck is...heck i never even built anything IN a sandbox. but i made my own way. no one took me under their wing...no one invited me to anything...no one helped me unless i went to them to learn and nicely asked and then listened. some were helpful and some werent...and some just confused me...lol
so this idea that you have to have something handed to you...call it luck or help or whatever you want....is proven false as you like to say....it didnt happen to me...wasnt given to me, etc. therefore, acc to your logic...someone CAN be succcessful without those things...
also...you totally need to get involved in the various philosophy groups holding meetings in sl if this is the kind of interchange that gets you going...those people sit around for hours and just argue back and forth about things...lol me, i go off and make something.

From: Yumi Murakami People here have made it clear they don't want to be my friends. For me....you have demonstrated behavior that I would not tolerate in a friendship. I myself...have behaviors that some would not tolerate in a friendship. We all do. If you can't find enough people to bond with in a healthy way (key word "healthy"  .....that will tolerate your behaviors....perhaps you should study them a little? maybe adjust something? But that suggestion has already been given to you, more than a dozen times.

And then I am silent, and then I have no interaction with others at all.

Did you read that list of possible interactions that might be good for you? I started it in another thread - by itself? maybe two weeks ago?

When you want to learn how to align prims, don't post a thread about how SL is doomed because of your problems and then, pages later, ask about aligning prims. Instead, start a thread about aligning prims in the building forum.

From: Jojogirl Bailey and on the flip side...why would they NOT care Why should anyone care about my ability to align prims? These threads have made it clear that I can't expect anything from anyone. Moreover, if they did care about random strangers' ability to do so, why wouldn't the information already be in a sticky or FAQ?

Post 302 and now 308 explain the 'whys'. Because it's a way of interaction, of communication, of people talking, even if what they are saying is not really what you're looking for; even that is better, to you, than being alone. Is this correct, Yumi or am I assuming too much here?

Is this correct, Yumi or am I assuming too much here? No. Since the "adjustment" they are asking for actually results in me being silent and having no interaction, I figure they are not actually telling me how to be friendly, but just trying to get me to shut up.

How has this turned into the Yumi thread? Isn't the other one enough? I come in here to escape from those other mind-numbing discourses, and don't expect them to have them follow here because they aren't getting enough attention where they originated

From: Yumi Murakami These threads have made it clear that I can't expect anything from anyone. Amaranthim gave you a very specific offer for help. I offered to help you in any way I can with your av. This thread is full of people who are trying to help, but you rebut every piece of advice. I'll ask for perhaps the fourth time: What exactly do you want?

With that dear impossib ble dreamers- i bid thee all a fond adieu - I certainly don't have you muted, I'm just not in-world right now.. if it's not showing up as offline, there's an SL bug.

And my response via IM when i had this in my inbox as well: I didnt mean muted i meant on ignore- i am not inworld either- but - I did invite you to come build and if you want to come build i will happily do it with you - tomorrow cause tonight i am busy- but- acknowledge it - go over there and acknowledge that oh my someone is actually doing the thing you are so bent in refusing to believe is being offered left and right - you want to build well I am no Tiger Woods of the building community - I just do the best i can - when it sux it sux and i move on- but u want company in bldg - bring it on - so go over there and acknowledge it so there can be no doubt you know that someone in the great span of things offered you a mutual building experience - we can start small - i do stuff - i dont do sims- you want major movers and shakers it wont be me- but i am offering what i have- me -
