However, it does bring up a good question. I have house on the mainland. I can sit in my house and hear these things going off over and over again. Is there a way of muting them so I do not hear them in my private abode? I know I can probably ask the neighbors to mute them but if I can shut them off it would make it better in the neighborhood.

And it got me to thinking about a certain land baron who shall remain nameless.......

What was one of the first things he shows me, a defenseless noob, when I am finally lured from the PG world of There into the sex filled, dark underworld of Second Life? ;)

That's right, folks, he showed me his detachable penis, I wish I could remember the name of that damn thing, but I think it was the JizzMaster 2000. :eek: Then, I got my first pair of pixelated nipples :p


Needless to say, I was hooked on SL from that moment on! :D

From the Xcite on-line manual:

From: someone
COCK TALK

We understand that many people are put off by the concept of a talking cock. They're embarrassed and unable to wear their cock in many situations because of the spam and inappropriate text that some of the cocks here in Second Life send out. With Xcite!, we're far less concerned with broadcasting our name out to spatial than with your experience with the organ that you've purchased.

As such, we have built in many levels of controls to allow your genitalia to speak or not, the choice is up to you. Those options are outlined below.

In the Xcite! Settings notecard you will see a setting called 'spatial'. This may be set to 'whisper', 'say' or 'none'. Setting it to none will squelch all output to spatial. Setting it to 'say' or 'whisper' will do the appropriate things...whisper has a much smaller range than say, so keep that in mind.

In addition, there is a 'Discreet' mode on your genitals. This is accessed from the 'Options..." menu that you will see when you click on your Xcite! Cock. Selecting 'Discreet' will suppress all further spatial emanations from the Xcite! Cock until you go back in and select 'Indiscreet'.

One final note is that your genitals will often send you messages that only you can see. These "owner" messages give you status on your genitals, tell you when someone is playing with them, etc. Although these messages may look like standard chat, only you will be able to see them. Generally, all owner messages begin with two asterisks.


So, individual Xcite owners can, fairly easily, tell their toys to either whisper or shut up entirely. I would think that the majority of users, once the novelty wears off, would want to suppress the chatter, and just use the 'arousal meter' to get an idea of how turned on they are getting. You can also override the arousal settings with the Xcite HUD, to choose the pace of the encounter. The scripting is still worthwhile as a means of controlling the visible reactions, as well as allowing both partners to respond to touches.

Personally, I think Xcite should make 'Whisper' the settings default, rather than 'Say'. I also think that 'Whisper mode' should be an HUD button, along with 'Discrete'. And I agree that it would be worthwhile to offer an "Xcite Excluder" HUD, for those who simply don't want the chatter, that would detect and auto-mute other people's Xcite toys for the wearer. Heck, I might even get one to use WITH my Xcite stuff, on the rare times when I use them, just so I don't have to listen to the other folks body parts talking!

All of this talk about detachable penis makes me think about making money. How about selling the following in the better "mature" stores?

If you need a few hundred lines of LSL to tell you if you are getting aroused, you have bigger problems than how chatty your wiener is. :eek: ;)

1) swing your camera around to see your partner's goodies.
2) click said goodies. oh, move the camera a bit,that click didn't register. wait, there's an invisible prim there, that won't work. move it a little...there. click. nothing, click again.
3) menu pops up. no, two menus. the first click really did go through.
4) choose...let's see...i think i'll stroke lightly for now. save the good stuff for later.
5) click ignore for the second menu
6) there we go, now we made it say something.
7) repeat.

at no point should you actually have to interract with your partner. if he/she/it buys talkboxes for all his/her/its parts then you can go on clicking until the parts all have their green orgasms.


that is so hot i'm practically writhing.

Personally I break down laughing at the thought of a couple who can't get each other excited because their naughty bits are different brands.

Or the thought of a "market-grab" rant... "sex is soo important in SL but now (insert name here) has narrowed all the sexual things we can do into SL onto 12 buttons on a dialog plus whatever they decide to let us pay them for!"

There was a guy at the one sexcapades thing I went to who was wearing a sign telling everyone he was a true voyeur. I expect he'd pay good Lindens to sit in your house and listen to the penis spam lol. Then you could use the money you charge him to pay for a spot far, far away in a PG sim where you won't be bothered by them.

Alternatively, you could have fun by adding your own rhyming responses:
Randy Avatar's cock is lightly aroused
*you say* George Flan's kippers are lightly soused
Sexy Avatar's nipples are roughly kissed
*you say* I tried to spit in the bin and narrowly missed
Randy Avatar's cock is lightly stroked
*you say* I'm eating my tea and nearly choked

come to think of it, that's probably quite a fun game. All round to George's and play it?

Either that, or buy yourself some loudspeakers and play brass band music until they give it up. It's a well known fact that brass band music is the unsexiest music in the world....

Xcite is a set of scripted objects and HUD control panel that take all effort and creativity out of any intimate encounter you may want to engage in. I was curious so I gave it a try. Honestly, it's a crutch 99% of the time for people who have no imagination and no writing skills.

Like any device they can be abused. Many come with nice animations though, which can enhance the experience. It is true that some people rely on the clickables and add nothing of their own except for the occasional "Mmmm" or "Yesssss" and this is indeed boring. However, I quite enjoy the clickables when they are used wisely and sparingly- and a number of devices exist that interact with them as well (canes, paddles, racks, etc.) which again can be quite fun when applied imaginatively.

The Xcite attachments (and their competitors) serve a subtle extra benefit though. If you ARE with a boring partner you can use them to speed you both to climax and bow out gracefully. (And if you have the Xcite HUD you can even force an immediate climax.) You'll look like you both had a great time, when really you're just moving on. Just don't click Yes when that friendship invite pops up...

My own gripes with these gadgets are that many people don't rename their attachments so you'll see 50 "Xcite nipple" messages pass by but you need to read every one individually to know who's doing what. Also, it would be nice to be able to customize the text that the attachments generate to further personalize the experience. (Xcite may allow this, but I don't believe so...)

Also, some sims ban the use of such devices to keep the chat channel clear, and people seem to obey.

I knew there was a reason I got up this morning. And it was to read that post. It's always fun when the quiet ones get saucy.

On a related note, please feel free to wank in my stores, as long as I'm not there. And buy my prefabs

Weird episode
03-20-2006 14:56
Friend of mine was working on his house yesterday morning, guy falls out of the sky naked and wanking away.

First thought was he fell out of a skybox someplace poor fellow...then the guy stood up, walks over to the fireplace facing the flames and continues his "business".

My friend stood there dumbfounded for a moment, then said you have exactly 1 minute to get out of here. The guy says well that's all it takes and ports out.

All the while his bits were talking.


Sheesh

Sometimes in a public sex area, there is so much "Xcite Spam" going on, it literally fills the screen to the point where you cant even see what you and your partner are doing.

Is there any way to issue a global mute to all Xcite chatter?

Someone said you could click the individual body part and mute it but not only is that tedious, but it seems to mute the whole person, not just their Xcite item.

Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.

I also sent an email directly to Xcite... still waiting on the official response

I wouldn't ordinarily wank in your shops, but man, the Apollyon silver set nearly brought me to that...

not to mention how sad and pathetic it is.

cant get a laid in the real world... must resort to green text and pixels. there is clearly something wrong mentally (obviously, physical too) with these people.



It would be better to have meaningless RL sex and pass diseases? Maybe some of these folks could easily get laid in the rl world, but choose to be safe.

That said, the skyfalling wanker post was kinda funny. At least he didn't leave your mantle sticky! but eww. lol
