Do a search for Caldeon Oxbridge - it's Desmond's version of OI and it's beautifully done... and it was very quiet when I was there last. Thank you so much for this information, I have learned a lot from coming here, and picked up some lovely items too for free! |

That part is actually somewhat comical. Brann is way way down on the list of those of us that use lots of emotes. I wasn't talking about the sl use of the word. Pep (HRT?) _____________________

Oh by the way, Brann. This is a great idea.
But, I don't envy you. With how reliable SL is, I hope you have a lot of stuff prepared for having to talk around potential problems. you: "...So as you can see...<swoosh><*this sim is no longer available, you are being moved to the nearest suitable location*> Oh...um...it looks like the sim is rebooting. Well this happens from time to time, give it a moment, and..." student: "[Real You], I have a question.." you: "Oh...yes...go ahead..." student: "Is that a horse wearing a tutu? And why are flying [naughty bits] attacking us?" you: <glance at the screen> "*Groan* .... Ahern...they moved us to ahern..." ctrl-shift-H <Teleport failed> ctrl-shift-H <Teleport failed> you: "Uhhhh....."  _____________________

Do a search for Caldeon Oxbridge - it's Desmond's version of OI and it's beautifully done... and it was very quiet when I was there last. I took a trip there last night and it is EXCEPTIONAL. I think it's the best newbie orientation I've seen. The free avatars don't have the newbie look... they're unusual but nice, although I was alarmed to discover that the skin I tried had underwear painted on it... awfully cute undewear, but... I've mentioned Caledon Oxbridge in another thread, and I will (as someone else mentioned) send any lost or confused souls there. |

OMG - and I can sooooo see this happening. Yah, thanks for that, you two. Bodhi has a shrine to Ruth on his property. I will visit it and pray to Her and probably offer a sacrifice in exchange for a trouble-free presentation. I'm sure folks like Lindal know all about the challenges of trying to run a presentation in SL. And then there is that unruly audience... _____________________

For some reason, she has become his target and amusement for the time being. Personally, I think he is in desperate need of some really wild sex (maybe for an entire weekend) to take care of his repressed frustrations. I've turned down your offer already Lil Pep (As Charly, since that *would* have been "mean, nasty, and devious"  _____________________

Do a search for Caldeon Oxbridge - it's Desmond's version of OI and it's beautifully done... and it was very quiet when I was there last. I double this suggestion. They have great tutorials there if you want to have people walk thru some of them, as well as some wonderful free avatars including tinies. There are also several courtyard areas where you could assemble groups. _____________________
