Resident Action Committee (RAC) is trying to exclude europeans

Prior to SecondLife, I used to participate in numerous other and older virtual world systems.

Somehow I've always ended up joining these groups that tried to come up with purposals or talk with the company about possible improvements to the platform.

In all of these times, i've always faced one constant problem: I am an Israeli, who lives in Israel. As result, my timezone (which can be concidered to be europian) was very inconvenient for meetings: To show up, I had to show up at 3am and stick around until about 5am - on a weekly basis.

Did I complain? Not really. I showed up anyway, when I could. They knew what I had to go trough to show up, but being a small factor of the user population, there was nothing much they or I could do.

This is just how things are going to be on an American ran system. The opposite would happen if LindenLab was stationed in Germany - the American minority would have had to stay up at 3am and show up half asleep, and there would be not much you can do.

LordFly did not do anything wrong. Stop poking him.

Oh I'm so sick of you ignorant Americans branding us as sushi-eating Ninjas and Geishas! And mind you, Ninjas are fictional beings some postwar novelists invented on the basis of actual espionage agents who worked for feudal lords. And how can you be so dumb to say "Asia" in this case? You can't just tell Japan from any other Asian coutries, now can you?

...See? People can take offense at anything if they wanted to. Some people are just so thin-skinned and easily offended no matter where they live. Sheesh. It's as if we have the God-given right to nag individual Americans about their slightest misconduct of words and deeds just because they are the majority in SL and their leader is the world's most favorite pie-throwing target in RL. It's so easy and fun to bash Americans because we don't have to feel guilty doing so, but yyyyuck, it gets so UGLY sometimes.

I so totally agree. I'm waiting for my designer friend to finish a sexy female Ninja outfit. And another scripter friend of mine is building a Ninja house filled with tons of traps. Whee! Brace yourself for Ninja invasion!

Oh, and congratulations to Blaze. Your fish net is full of people from around the world who willingly took your bait, including me. Big Fish!

My crystal cube indicates you will suffer from carpal tunnel syn in the very near future.

Ladies and gentleman... my tribute.. to the ninjas.

Facts:

1. Ninjas are mammals.
2. Ninjas fight ALL the time.
3. The purpose of the ninja is to flip out and kill people.

Ninjas can kill anyone they want! Ninjas cut off heads ALL the time and don't even think twice about it. These guys are so crazy and awesome that they flip out ALL the time. I heard that there was this ninja who was eating at a diner. And when some dude dropped a spoon the ninja killed the whole town. My friend Mark said that he saw a ninja totally uppercut some kid just because the kid opened a window.

And that's what I call REAL Ultimate Power!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

If you don't believe that ninjas have REAL Ultimate Power you better get a life right now or they will chop your head off!!! It's an easy choice, if you ask me.

Ninjas are sooooooooooo sweet that I want to crap my pants. I can't believe it sometimes, but I feel it inside my heart. These guys are totally awesome and that's a fact. Ninjas are fast, smooth, cool, strong, powerful, and sweet. I can't wait to start yoga next year. I love ninjas with all of my body (including my pee pee).


Q and A:.


Q: Why is everyone so obsessed about ninjas?
A: Ninjas are the ultimate paradox. On the one hand they don't give a crap, but on the other hand, ninjas are very careful and precise.

Q: I heard that ninjas are always cruel or mean. What's their problem?
A: Whoever told you that is a total liar. Just like other mammals, ninjas can be mean OR totally awesome.

Q: What do ninjas do when they're not cutting off heads or flipping out?
A: Most of their free time is spent flying, but sometime they stab. (Ask Mark if you don't believe me.)

Good grief Blueman, that was awesome. I'm not sure you're not already a ninja, but in disguise. Hope this suggestion doesn't make you flip out.

On the other hand........
