Ok, I was seriously thinking about this for along time. I hope you guys join in. Ok, so anyway, the group is called the SLTS (Second Life Transit System) which is like bus driving and that kind of stuff... Im willing to look for some good textures people, maybe a few good builders/scripters and some people to help me get things straight (basicly, commanding (officers,etc). Yea, so if anyone wants to join or has any ideas/opinions, please post! Thanks...

Ok as a Bus Driver RL, and as someone who enjoys driving around in SL i find your post to be highly insulting and offensive! WTF do you feel it neccessary to post your negitive 2 cents about something you have no interest in?
How would you like it if random people decided that your spending hours working on a gossip rag sheet about SL ment you had no life?

Kohelen,

Is it a group for people who work in RL as transit workers, or have interest in transit? What type of things do you want to do with the group?

Offers to help Phoenix remove his foot from his mouth. I dont think he meant any insult to Rl bus drivers and attendents.

My foot was never anywhere near my mouth. What I meant was that bus drivers in rl serve a useful and valuable role helping people get from one place to another. No such need truly exists in SL. We can all fly; there is P2P teleporting; what is the purpose of establishing a mass transit system?

Sorry if I offended. That wasn't my intent; I just can't imagine the need for such a thing, nor that anyone would think it was fun driving a bus all over a virtual world (not even taking into consideration the issues with sim crossings and such).

I have ridden many a rl bus in my time, and gotten to know several drivers. Not a one of them ever said, "Oh, it's so much fun driving this bus around." A couple of them expressed that it was tedious work, and that when it was over for the day, they looked forward to going home and relaxing. Why would someone want to bring their rl job that makes them feel that way into their Second Life?

That's all I meant.

My apologies then ;)

Maybe there might be no need for a transit system in SL but who are we to say what people can or can't do? if Kohelen wants to do this let him maybe this is how he wants to have fun in SL, everyone is entitled to that. For example you have your paper, there are a few papers & magazines in second life basically covering the same issues why do you do this? because you enjoy it :) I hope i am making sense lol i am not much of a writer lol.. After all..this is second life a place to explore creativity and imagination..

All you need to do is apologize and admit you were wrong.

Saying "Sorry if I offended" is not an apology. Take some responsibility for your statements. No amount of explanation is going to convince anyone that you meant anything other than an insult in your original post.

I wish you hadn't apologized to Phoenix. There was no need for you to apologize for your very reasonable response to his insult

Lewis, I think that I have already explained my intent from my original post. Don't start a flame war with me.

I do apologize wholeheartedly to all those who drive buses and/or are interested in the group proposed in this thread. I just could not imagine why someone who works in a job that is so demanding would want to carry it over to SL.

There might not be a need for mass transet in SL... but things like guided buss tours and party busses could be fun.

You could gather with friends and move around together.

Maybe even a club hop together as a group.... or go to museums.. whatever.
