I purposely turned off the smile appearing as a picture icon because I wanted to imply that the frown was a backwards smile. :) Yes, just the words are backwards in his version :)

Oh, and I couldn't think of anything to say, so just started typing

:) ;) :D


that was hard for me to do the spaces lol.. I type fast, even backwards I found out.. I hit a letter then the left arrow key then another letter... but spaces are evil XD

And thats a valid opinion, however don't complain when people perceive you as lazy (at best) or uneducated (at worst) and thus don't take you seriously. As long as you know (and accept) those ramifications then all the power too you.



ive already stated a number of times in this thread that i dont care :/ just because you percieve something a certain way doesnt make it true. there is enough substance in my posts in invalidate any stereotypes about me. i dont think the problem is mine.

lol its good practice for being a military encryption..oh screw it.. its interesting lol

Hmm I am not a solider, I am more into peace, love and Granola type of being without the major dose of illegal substances because I already lost all the prim brain cells I can afford to lose.
But occasionally I do dream of world I control through magic and imagination, mixed throughly with convert missions so perhaps...nah just won't work, the cost of doing missions
at that scale would be just too many L$. LOL

Possibly but I would need magic,super natural abilities, devices that used and recycled Atoms or smart Nano Atom sized robotic beings to make anything, everything I desire and the know how to do this.
The ability to communicate with Atoms and control them would be on the top of my list so I can ship products via SL to RL through worm holes in space.

The script I need would cause so much lag it shut down several sims to run. LOL
I have scripter but she often quite busy...not sure I want a script. I want real magical ability to put anyone who wants to go into real virtual realm of their own creation.

Have your 'energy farm sims' on one corner of the grid, and run the scripts using their resources =P

Void sims are your friend ;)

My concern is if I could figure out script to create anything on the atom level to ship to whomever they may say I am a copy bot.

Well.. just make a new decree, duh!

"TO all whom it may concern. Copy Bot and all similar devices are illegal, outright. However, in my duties as ALWSL(Awesome Leader of the World of Second Life), I require use of scripts that may be considered similar. To this end, any and all scripts are legal when used by FD Spark, and FD Spark may use any scripts FD Spark wishes."

haha yeah I do have friend who can make anything but she doesn't do it for profit. And
whatever she makes for me is purely used for my personal educational and creative purposes.
I often joke she is my personal copybot. I will ask her if she can program me all script device that I can use for whatever purpose whenever I need it.
She probably say that it will take lot of work.

Yeah I just got to figure out how to have her work full time for me and way to not have to work in rl.
LOL
I think sometimes SL has too many limitations. I really want her to script something that I don't know if their is means to program it.
I would want script that telepathic read all avatar thoughts and created whatever was in their prim or pixel brains. lol
To keep on topic it could type with proper grammar for us too.

Ooh.. yes!

Intercept all speech as it is formed in our mind, and correct he grammar as we say it. No one would even know that we have bad grammar to begin with!

Yes but if we all had good grammar what would those who need to correct it do with their time?

mm..... there could be 'bad grammar' zones, that aren't affected by the grammar-correcting scripts, so that people like that could correct to their heart's content. Even cities without it maybe..

Yes that might be solution. I vote also for Eubonics zone too for white Avatars that black or Rap stars, or Eubonic speaking Avatars can come correct their Eubonic grammar too. LOL

Absolutely!

Now.. would there only be english as a supported language, or would it be a multi-lingual society? That could require some more energy farm sims..hmm...

Perhaps they could shoot each other if they spell things wrong. When they die we get all their L$ split amongst us and the grammar checkers.
I think it should be diverse language, multi-cultural spelling corrections should be allowed.

Ooh that would be nice.. but what if YOU spell something wrong? Or would you just have an omni-shield up at all times?

I don't know about omni-sheilds, perhaps anti-dictionary sheild would be better.
If you spelled something wrong you get zapped by the dictionary and throughly humilated and if you continue shrivel up in pile of dust and die with nothing left but your inventory all over the ground.

o.o sounds painful, both mentally and physically..

Unfortunately, I'm about out of time, so I think my help in this matter is about used up for now!
