From: spinster Voom well, I need another 3 posts ... 2 now ... to get to 1000, so perhaps I could start an argument with you and then run away?  It needs to be the sort of argument where you are thoroughly in the wrong so that others will carry on arguing with you after I have posted twice and then scarpered ... any ideas? Go on, say something contentious ... and wrong ... All you need are two words: "traffic bot" or "search gaming."

From: Peggy Paperdoll I don't know if I've ever seen or participated in a Clearspace forum. But it doesn't appear to me to be the end of the world. A change,yes.........but it could be a change for the better. How many times have we all heard how shoddy and lacking this forums is? I choose to look on the bright side.......I sometimes think a lot of people see that as a bad thing but I don't.  Time will tell...........about a week and a half in fact. one week to the day. and as shoddy and lacking as this forum is, LL's clearspace implementation makes it look like the holy grail... I've outlined some of the most basic failings, both in the current blogorum thread, and in the past when they they were pushing SL answers... places like scripting tips for one are a shining example of what cannot be done in the blogorum as it stands.

Next - you are going to make the forum archive searchable by everyone on the web using Google? Everyone who posted to the forums in the years that they have existed did so with the understanding that they were an SL-only repository of information and conversation. I hope you mean that they will be made available to Google search on the authenticated portion of this website, and not publicly searchable. That would be a gross violation of trust.
HUGE violation here. I want to know the answer to this. As far as I'm concerned - violating this, violates the TOS. If this is the case - our souls got pimped out. Unforgiveable. Zero Trust. |

Quite frankly, I think that the only forums that should be archived and publicly searchable are the content creation forums. The wealth of knowledge about how to use the SL tools contained in the Building, Animation, Texturing and Scripting forums is beyond calculation. If those can't be ported over to the new format wholesale, they need to be preserved and easily found via a google search. Everything else should be nuked.

From: Soji Slade I heard that you like to lick kittens. That's not contentious at all. I *love* to lick kittens. Also, I kissed a pup only this morning and what's more he *liked* it. Kissed me back in fact. But kittens are about as low as I can go. |

ok maybe I am dense but how the heck does one get in the new forums? I can not find a way in. Not seeing anything but blogs. No questions and answers place.

From: Peggy Paperdoll Isablan, Conifer and I appear to be in the minority here. I suppose that's to be expected and I should not be surprised.
One thing I hope does change with this new forum. Having to basically defend yourself to a certain vocal (and sometimes obnoxous) group that take over almost every thread that runs contrary to what they believe is important. There's no such thing as a different view or opinion. Hell, we can't even take a "wait and see" attitude before we get vocal on this new direction LL has decided upon. Peggy, you don't understand. LL has ALREADY got "forums" up using this "wonderful" new software. Just go to Community/Blogs and look around. THOSE are the "forums" we're going to move to. They suck. There's no other word for it. The software they chose is blogging software, not a platform for a forum community. It takes forever to search, to scroll through a thread. When they get long, they take forever to just LOAD. Plus there is a nasty-mouthed mean-spriited woman there who's even worse than Pep. Lord knows why they haven't deleted her account.

Hai Gais, wots going on? Seriously, come on over you'll be welcomed with open arms and poke sticks! Is this the second or third closing of the LL Forums? I can't keep up and haven't been here in ages.

Just 1? I know of 2 at least, they havent been deleted because they have refined the art of brown nosing the Lindens as we all know how much the Lindens love their fanbois on the blogs and office hours

But kittens are about as low as I can go. Yes, but do you have to smear chocolate on them first?

Because we residents are the ones losing this struggle. There is another possibility though. I'll never tell what it is. |

From: Amaranthim Talon Worse... she doesn't SPIN!! I asked her this ages ago FRAUD! I say I tried once ... it's difficult! When the forums close, perhaps I'll have time to try again. Failing that, it's back to crocheting lampshades.

They also call riding a stationary bicycle spinning. My response assumes you mean the art version of spinning since you noted crocheting lampshades.
