From: someone Cindy said... Here's an idea. Let's have a formal Benshee burning. Meet somewhere and stack the things in a pile, set them on (particle) fire and claim we're striking a blow against server bloat Prim abuse is a bannable offense, especially when the prims are of Linden origin. If you feel the benshee is an inventory bloat for you, please donate yours to me. I will give it a good home.

From: Loki Pico Prim abuse is a bannable offense, especially when the prims are of Linden origin. But I abuse prims all the time. You should see the horrible ways I stretch and texture them, creating bizarre crap that has absolutely no use whatsoever. So AR me, I won't stop! Nobody can make me! bwahahaaha!

From: Ghoti Nyak Oooohhhh.... I used to love that game.
-Ghoti Wow, so did I. It was so much fun getting them to mate and then seeing what the new ones had in common with their parents. I wonder if Creatures is still around? __________________________ "To announce that there must be no criticism of the president, or that we are to stand by the president right or wrong, is not only unpatriotic and servile, but is morally treasonable to the American public." --Theodore Roosevelt

They sound a lot like Furbys...since they will be able to interact with each other apparently. Wonder if they will speak in satanic tounges like mine irl...

Creatures! I loved playing with them until everything went bad. My first norn Coco died, but he was old. The worst was when those scary reptile troll things invaded their home. ARGH! I tried to slap them back to where they came from, but they just looked at me and pull an even uglier face. I was so frustrated, I killed the game and found the Sims instead.

If that Furby sound clip is anything to go by, I'm glad I never did get around to picking a couple up. What would be interesting is to see just how they can be corrupted... "Oh, you like that One Barrel Rum, dontcha lil' guy? There ya go, have some more... Oh, empty you say? Gee that's too bad, daddy can't rez any more. But maybe if you brought daddy some bling from someone in that club over yonder, then he could buy his benshee another bottle..."

Ok first thought when I heard this name "benshee" was a Linden crossed with a furby. Second though Gremlins, muwagies (sp?), critters (the movie creatures), furbies, and tribbles rolled up into one annoying package. For the record I hate furbies. I bought a gizmo furby and it was possed it would turn itself on and talk for no reason.

That's it. I'm SO going to make a script self-aware HunterKiller drones. I need some to protect me in sandboxes, and to deal with riff-raff that come up and bother me (ie, n00bs, beggers, griefers, Lindens). i guess I'll have to add Benshee's to the autotarget list next to fish, slimes, etc.

If you get a Benshee and you don't get along with it (allergic, can't housetrain, etc.), please consider giving it to one of the Benshee Adoption Centers or the Benshee Rescue League. Thank you.
