What "generation" are you referring too? I know people of a variety of age groups that are quite into roleplaying. Myself, I'm 27.... all us youngins' are amoral thrill seekers. :P

P.S. IM me for some "roleplaying" *wink*

Do you agree with any of this? Have you ever been lied to or found out someone you were friends with or even more, was really a creepy ass in real life? :eek:


Well, as others have said, this happens in *real* life. I will spare you the tales of real life betrayals...from long term 'friends.'

It stands to reason that manipulative or sociopathic types might be attracted to a media in which they can hide.

Others are simply roleplayers or trying out a new identity in here for a playful or personal growth reason. *Not everyone in SL is wanting to meet someone in RL*

If you were approaching it as a chat program/dating service at any point, and ran into roleplayers using it like a computer game, then no wonder, but hey not everyone is in SL for the same reason.

I disliked the judgmental tone in the OP, towards others but hey that's my own judgment so whatever floats yer boat.

Original post 2007, now look at the responses!

Well, the thing is that SL is NOT reality, and never will be reality. Once "it" (as in Second Life) tries to become reality, it will fail, because there will only be one reality. I don't want to hear any crap about dimensions and the such. In this world, if you are "killed" in a combat sim, you don't stop breathing, you don't bleed (unless its a particle effect) and you don't lose anything....the converse in reality. SL is supposed to be about fun and letting people explore that creative side. SL was never intended to be another match.com with 3D avatars. But neither was it meant to be a place for people to use one another. In a sense, everything is relative.

It was originally designed as a creative and commercial outlet for people that want to enjoy an immersive online experience. It has become more of a social networking site with a few people still holding onto creativity. Anyway, just an opinion.....after all, in 6+ years and four main alts, I have seen the different generations of SLers....onward to commercialism and unsustainable capitalism (what do you think is wrong with the real economy today?)...

Oh and as for dealing with people in game.....just follow the Golden Rule, and if you don't know the Golden Rule, then I suggest you prepare to become simple dirt :D

Friday the 13th is when Linden Labs posts no less than five Friday threads at once.

I am not sure what is meant by "Original post 2007" - original post is 2008- we laughed about this being an appropriate necro post since Deviance never dies...

If I didn't feel crappy I might generate enough oomph to be preturbed by: "I have seen the different generations of SLers....onward to commercialism and unsustainable capitalism (what do you think is wrong with the real economy today?)..." But I am not sure I am reading it rightly- though of course politics just gives Deviance a bad name... strategically placed cigars not withstanding.

Hmm, although I am still rather new to this cool little world of animated charactors, I find that it is not so much different from real life. Although SL is consumed with people attempting to hide their corrupt natures under what they believe to be the perfect 'front' - or roleplaying, I tend to believe personality always shines like a laser in a dark alley within time. Learning to weed out the bad apples may take a little more time than in real life, but none-the-less possible, and occationally may get caught along your way.

There are just as many good people as there is bad. I've came across quite a few helpful patrons among my journeys as a newb. Some will even go as far as giving a few $L just so you can play around a little.

Ok,so there are however, some people that do things that they think are fun, but can be quite irritating,annoying,ect to others. Thanks for the powerful god "Iggy". :)

Many males in SL, are sex hungy beyond normal. I watched it closely, and whitnessed/studied it. As soon as a woman, looks nice in sl, most males, show more than usual interrest in her. As if their penis (or brain) gives a signal "defcon 5!!" in sexual terms. And they start making the move to get between her legs.
That's their goal mainly.


And how is *that* different from RL?

I keed.

Sort of.

Main difference I can see is that the ratio of "really insanely goodlooking people" (TM Zoolander) is absurdly high. So those for whom appearance is the main trigger, their bell rings more often.

It's different in that in RL, those guys actually leave their mothers' basements to go look for sex.
