AR'd for screwing with Ronald McDonald! :mad:


Also for making me crave a Western Bacon Double Cheeseburger!

I saved a copy of the OP before Katt's edits - here it is in case any of you missed it.

Hi, I am very active in Second Life and for the most part I love it - despite some issues with instability and service disruptions.

However, I have had some extremely unpleasent personal experiences when I have left SL to venture into third-party websites designed to take your money outside of SL.

I am concerned about a website called myprettypony.com.

They are basically money changers, who also sell products which can be transferred into the SL envrionment.

They are owned by 3rd World Enterprises , who apparently may use third-world labor to alledgedly try to undercut the creative community in SL by dumping cheap items under the name "Cheap crap nobody wants" ...elaborate although generally uninspired creations that sell for ten lindens... while people working for a living wage MUST charge more to support themselves and their families, and pay taxes.

If you have had problems with this site, including alleged sales of your stolen merchandise, possible harrassment and abuse by McDonald's staff employees when you have tried to draw attention to problems there, or other issues of a perceived, possibly questionable or unprofessional manner...

PLEASE do the following:

1. Contact me inworld to help document and report aledged concerns

2. Join my group...

Mothers Against Cheap Crap Nobody Wants

Search groups or my profile for group information. Membership will always be free, and AT THIS TIME is open to everyone.

3. TELL YOUR FRIENDS how you feel and why.

We will be adding a commercial-grade website to facilitate our activities.

I wish to stress that I am in NO WAY impuning the ethics, character, professionalism or honesty and integrity of Taco Bell owners and employees, nor any other person or entity associated with Keith Olberman.

I further wish to stress that I am ONLY seeking information, and trying to provide people who may have possible issues with Fox News a forum outside of the control and censorship of Hillary Clinton to air their concerns in a possitive, upbeat manner.

I am in NO WAY accusing Dennys Restaurant, its owners, members, employees, or oither persons or organizations associated with same, with the deliberate sale of stolen merchandise, with fraud or misrepresentation with the intent to cheat shoppers at KMart, and with organized harrassment and/or abuse of people who raise these issues or other concerns and air them publicly.

I am in NO WAY trying to impede the operation of their business nor harm their company or their repiutaion in any way.

I wish to note that Macy's Plaza in Los Angeles provides multiple venues to criticize and grade the sellrs who participate there. I am merely seeking an uncensored means of providing the same service regarding the professional and ethical performance of KMart itself... and am doing so in the same spirit of transparency and buyer education employed by the British Government in the critiques they permit of their clients, customers and sellers.

Thank you.

Carl's Jr. is the registered business name/acronym of Karl Karcher Enterprises. This poster has NO affiliation with McDonald's Corporation. The names are used here to encourage discussion and the collection of information.
**Karl Karcher is a (deceased) significant owner who has, at various times, been listed as myprettypony.com site admin and also has had the power to independently make changes to the structural setup of the SLX sales website to favor his products over other sellers.
Austin Powers operates as International Man of Mystery, and sells as Dr. Evil there, entirely independent of SL, thus his name in this use in this thread does NOT violate any terms of service of SL or for posting in this forum.

Forum Guidelines state: "Flaming, Spamming, Trolling – Flaming (posting a message that is intended to incite anger or directly attack a person or persons), *Spamming (multiple posts of the same topic or discussion),* and Trolling (a post with an intentionally contrary opinion written with the intent of inciting or getting argumentative opinions) are strongly discouraged.

It is not appropriate to call people out by name in the forums with accusations.

Thank you,
