life and death

Some, but not all. lol

Anyone got a prediction on when we actually run out of names, it's damn hard to make a new char now as it is, common RL first names seem to be all taken unless you put numbers behind them.

Dead Unverified names go back up for grabs I guess

Just like voting in Chicago

Welcome to Chicago...Vote early and often.

I think my profile says "no payment on file", but i'm a premium account ( or at least thats what my stipend and credit card bill charged for $72.00 says). In fact, i paid my money the first day i heard about SL. So i hope this displays some dedication to SL and not the thought that i'm the grim griefer.
I guess i will start my sims, away from everyone. I will let you all know how it turns out, it might take until september to fully design this idea.

Every now and then someone posts an idea like this that seems designed to make griefing more fun, one I recall was "allow people to be pushed even if they are sitting on a prim...".

Either they're trolling or they honestly want SL to be Warcraft.

I actually have never played any (mmorpg), so my suggestion was simply my own.

But that's not what you said in the OP. You never said that there would be an option. You never even intimated that it would be our "perogative as to whether or not [we] subject ourselves" to this.

If you HAD, I'm sure that you would get more support for this, as I said in my original (and ignored) response.

Here are the goalposts... oh, no. That's not where they are. You just moved them.

There is something to be said about individuals that read half of a page of a four page forum. First, i never said that what i was proposing was concrete. Thus the use of words such as; if, possibly, potentially ( no solid answers). Had you read a little further you would have discovered that several people either asked questions or made suggestions that reshaped parts of the original idea. So, i was'nt being wishy washy. I just posed the idea to see where the residents would take it. Read the entire text next time.

Wow... nice hostility there!

If YOU had looked, I have posted before in this thread. All the changes and "reshapings" were from other people. Not you. You hadn't changed your position that I could see.

Anyway... whatever. Attack away. See how far that gets you.

If he gets his way would get you killed !

LOL

Wild Wild Second Life.

mickey, to have people add to my idea, was the idea. I have no need to be flighty about the subject (i would love to see my idea implemented), however when i get responses(about my idea) from people that usually reshapes and refines the whole concept. I would'nt turn down one industry that can create four or five more, but that seems to be the general sacrifice that everyone is willing to take.

Here's a question (since people are so against my idea, which i gather is a quality of life issue), how many people signed up to SL to inter mingle with children? If had i posed that question instead of life and death i think that i would have received the same response(we don't want any pesky kids running around here). Now from what i've been reading today (people say they can visibly see the teen grid), should i believe that all who were opposed to my idea, will oppose this as well? And what good is it going to do, if LL decides to open the adult grid to kids will everyone leave then? Once that door is opened(allowing kids in), greifing will be at an all time high (not that it matters to me, there is no damage), and how would that effect your quality of life. That is what concerns people most (from what i've read in this thread). So now what, life or death, or kids on the grid, whats the difference(two things you did not come here for).

Which one? Your original idea, or the new one, which is still, as yet undefined.
Huh? I don't understand what you're trying to say here.
No, it's more a "This holds absolutely no interest for me and I disagree with the original assertion tht this should be implemented grid-wide" issue. There's also the issue of the "Go out and kill the griefer that killed you" part, as well as the "Pay real money to come back to life because some shmuck shot me" issue, as well as the myriad of others mentioned here.

Yet again, I have no idea what you're trying to say here. You're trying to liken a complete paradigm shift in how SL is played and used to the incredibly unlikely event that they will open the teen grid to the entire rest of SL, bringing in a whole new set of arguments.
You're comparing "We should be able to kill each other" to "What if kids can get into adult grid", a suggestion to a conjecture. How can you do that? How does that make sense?
How do the two compare? How do you figure that a reaction to one should warrant the same reaction to the other?
It just doesn't make sense.

Its funny how you were the only one who did'nt get it, maybe its you. The comparision was the the thought of the residents on both issue(forcing lifestyle changes ie:kids and life and death, two issues same sentiment), and how no one comes here to get killed, no one comes here to mingle with kids(ageplay excluded), no one paid a premium for this, yet both issues are still distinct possibilities;like it or not.
So my point is that no matter how much one may dislike the possibility of change(whether i am suggesting life or death and all of its possibilities, or which for some will be equally vexing, the onslaught of kids to the platform) it is on the horizon regardless of the reasons why anyone joined SL. And to be open to what could be. That was all i was trying to get across without actually having to say it.

You are right. Change does happen. And if the changes you do mention happen, I will no longer be visiting Second Life.

You would'nt be willing to change with the times Brenda? Why not? If you stick around for a few years, you can then talk like an old timer (i remember a time in SL when there were no kids or killing), and everyone will gather to hear how SL used to be from OG Brenda.

Yep and after the story is done, become the victim of a Fly/Drive-By

Fun

If kids and death came here I wouldn't make it into SL Old age. I'd kill one of the bastards for annoying me, and get the needle.

But you could see my story on.."Law and Order: Second Life"

o k

Unchecks prim babies off the things to look at with Brenda in second life

You can have one, but you will feed it, you will walk it and when it makes a mess you will clean up after it. Were not gonna repeat what happened with the Hamster.

Okay but you need to pick out the frozen daddy with me.

Just get a Linden.......

Contrary to that Other thread about one of the Lindens seeing me naked - I am not a Linden Groupie

----------------

Anyhow back on topic

Sounds liek the OP wants Second Life to basically be "A Second Life" as in a simulation of Life . birth, death, etc.

While interesting its a huge difference from what SL is now, and would appeal to different sorts of people.

It would be more of a game than the SL we know.

It wouldn't be bad as an optional RP thing. Start a sim, call it Springfield..........

I was thinking Stepford.
