We're all quick to scream and whine when something isn't working "right" -- well, that's what you want us to do, of course, because how else will you know what isn't working right?

We're not so great at saying Thank You for the Good Stuff, however -- at least I haven't been.

So I'd like to rectify that.

First, thank you for creating this world / game / amazing piece of software.

Thank you for letting me play in it and help test it.

Thank you for ...

... re-alphabetizing the landmarks in the map

... all the new avatar appearance options -- the makeup is great!

... putting the Sim name onscreen -- it's great knowing where I am =)

... the "stay in chat" mode -- very convenient

To all the "Lindens" -- you guys and gals are terrific. You're all so incredibly helpful and nice. Thank you for making Second Life what it is... and what it will be.

Thanks from all of us!

It is great to build something that attracts such cool & diverse & interesting users - we are having a great time meeting everyone (while hustling to make this all work!).

Hahaha... I forgot all about the chomping "ators". What?... we still had those when we let in beta testers?! Proof you're an old-timer!

Your welcome (although it wasn't all me... I have to give a little bit of credit to my colleagues... ... ...ok, that's enough).

I have to say that the mere concept of this program is my bliss! I dont have much computer experience, and until merely a year ago, I was petrified of them! This has not only let my *create* objects, upload textures, and talk my butt, but also lets me PLAY with my creations! Bugs or not, I'm having the most enjoyable time since I my console days

Thank you for letting me onboard! I hope this lasts for a long time!

peace and happy holidays
