From: PennyWhistle Cameron Couldn't have been, Cherry. I've been posting longer than SL's been in bidness.
But my former forum is like watching paint dry lately, and this is lively. So have most of us  Tho I have to confess I have been in some pretty niche posting places *cough*. There was The Sims Resource too I guess.

From: Kelly Kuiper There. And everywhere.
Sorry Cherry, but seeing your second name always reminds of a rude joke I know:
What do you can a fa*ny that takes messages?
An answering cervix. Oh don't. Just don't. I am stuck with it now but it never even OCCURRED to me ... For the record, my surname SHOULD be pronounced "Cher-vik" so it alliterates, see? It's not meant to be a gag name! And I forget till someone reminds me so thanks a lot Kel!

From: Cherry Czervik O It's not meant to be a gag name! And I forget till someone reminds me so thanks a lot Kel!  Oops sorreeeee  Nah you're right. "An answering chervik" just doesn't work. Scrub that. Infinitely more interesting than my name though, which apparently means 'Dutch barrel maker'. *Yawn*.

From: Cherry Czervik I don't need to use Alt Ctrl T ... only looking at one such and I know that's permanently attched!!
Bilbo? You ok there cupcake?
(waits) Sh-sh-she said it again!! .... she called me .... cupcake!! .. <swoon> From: Kelly Kuiper Now I'm worried. Hoi!!! You're worried that someone asks me for my unestimable advice? I find that broadly offensive. From: Kelly Kuiper .. Sorry Cherry, but seeing your second name always reminds of a rude joke I know... er .... sorry .... *you're* worried?

I'm not qualified. I don't have any intention of being the official joke on subject. I already know I am going to be the butt of many jokes for this (no pun intended).

From: Conan Godwin You can't pick a lock with a length of rope, as my old gran'pappy used to say. I don't know. Give me some rope and I'll figure something out...

Yet again I've just typed a reply to this thread but then thought better of it and deleted it without posting - deciding that I was stepping over that line that separates 'light hearted banter' and 'banal smut'.
Does that ever happen to anybody else?

in case no one mentioned it
my advice, give up on the quest for sex in SL.
Look for ppl (male and female) to make lasting friendships with, get to know them, chat with them, hang out, and have fun
I am totally open to friendships, but the sex thing, no way
maybe you should just look to meet people and leave sex at the door (it is highly over rated anyway)

Saying no way to the sex thing is to all accounts off-topic really. The OP specifically has asked about etiquette, not our opinions on SLex itself. SLex is huge and there really should be no judgements here huh?

From: Conan Godwin With his penis. Conan, you are fast becoming the master of the *single-entendre*. Though this produces an admirable clarity, it could be seen to somewhat diminish the ready flow of lolz. On the upside........given how this thread is awash with smutty metaphor.......your penis remark.......brings a fresh taste to the palate. ( Hmmmm there is something wierd about this statement.......but I cant figure out what it is.)

And a lot of the rest of us find the whole thing just ... funny ... /me looks at Rhoarth's shoes ... damn they are nice shoes ...

(and sorry I did not read the entire thread, so I guess I missed those who were saying do not make it a quest for sex) Quest for Sex was the first quest I received from the Ork of Divination at the Gates of Ahern when I came in as a level 3 noob warrior. Luckily I had the Sword of Guygeol to guide me through the Caverns of Alanna. I won 40,000L and a shield of enlightenment. BTW - if you stand around OI and type stuff like that, it confuses the hell out of the new people and hilarity ensues. Can I be a mentor now? /me waves at Lindal! Where have you been?
