My 'New to SL' Story...

I've been in SL for nearly a week now. My very first day was an interesting experience, so I thought I would share it and see if anyone else had a fun 'new to SL' story to share. :-)

I finished Orientation Island and couldn't wait to see more of SL. I tried walking around a bit but kept running into areas I couldn't enter, so I clicked on a sign and was TPed somewhere.....but it was a building where none of the people were wearing clothes, and they were all VERY friendly with each other.... I didn't know that avatars could have that kind of anatomical detail on them! No, I didn't want to take my clothes off. :-)

I didn't even know how to TP out. There were so signs I could click on to TP me....

Finally a kind woman took pity on the newb (me :-) ) and told me how to TP around and even directed me to Free Dove and a few other good URLs, so it all has a happy ending.

I am bumping you to an 8.5 on the Official Trout Measuring Instrument of Sluttiness. You are an enigma - on the one hand a sweet, gentle, intelligent woman who we would like to wrap up in our arms and protect, and on the other, a temptress to whom we would like to do all sorts of unmentionable things.

Congratulations and shame on you! You are a bit of a slut.

Welcome Rhiannon! :D

Aww, come on Ann... serve her some pie.

Either that or change your location to "Not Serving Pie on Friday". ;)

I guess she wanted to beat the Holiday Traffic.....BTW to our European Friends. This is a Holiday weekend here in the States...so I wouldn't expect to see many Lindens around until Tuesday.

Ok - which of you all was hanging around the sex room looking for newbs to help?

That's my new pick-up strategy. "Hey Ruth, I've got this folder full of goodies for new residents. Want to come back to my place and see what's inside"?

Hah - helpful AND creepy. I like that.

Welcome Rhiannon!

Ann - I never called you death, I just said that as long as you were bringing me pie, I didn't care if you were death or not. I'd make friends with Adolf Hitler if he clawed his way out of the grave and brought me a pie.

Ann - I don't care if you ARE death incarnate. If you have pie, you're welcome anytime.


(On some other thread.)

Awww Troutie, you're such a cute little noob *tickles him under his chin*

Do you seriously think there aren't Masters doing this right now? Just such a helpful guy taught me how to adjust hair, something like my third day into SL.

Stick with biplanes!

LOL! :D

Ann changed her location to "Serving Pie (Except on Friday)".

No pie today. :( I guess I'll just have to settle for a couple of Fig Newtons and a Doctor Pepper.

"Are you a Pepper, too?"

Allergic to Nuts? I'd say you are in the wrong place then, Hon.
