Getting to know some over years is exactly why i wrote this. They aren't assumptions, they're real instances that I've witnessed or been in. This is where the post came from. Its wasn't based on sl as a whole. I'm surprised that after you got to know them....that you would feel the need to come in here, and exploit them, in addition swiping at others. Not that I know anything about you....just not sure what the reason for that would be, and if the reason is important enough to take swipes at a large group of people. I don't really fit into any of those categories that you swiped....some would say "bitch" fits me fine....but they don't know me.....but I still took huge offense on behalf of those who might fit into the categories, and on behalf of anyone that just hates seeing human behavior in general played out in it's ugliest form. You're not going to hear from some of those people. They aren't speaking. That's what you need to remember on the Internet. |

it wasn't meant to be hardcore. i was no where NEAR upset. There's just certain attitudes and actions that you'd expect from a 13 y/o, but when you see mature individuals doing it, it makes you raise an eyebrow. As I've stated, but evidently ignored by many. i understand the net as being an outlet for many. My mother is disabled and i help support her, believe me I understand. The issues I'm trying to get is why all the deception in a place you're supposed to be outside of all of that. i can imagine many have had a rough go of life, or dealt a crappy hand, but then why in turn try and make yourself out to be something you're not? Create fake accounts to talk to yourself to portray popularity. Make multiple accounts and partner multiple people to somehow fill a void in your life all the while ignoring there's another real person on the other end getting hurt when things come to life? Why use your disability as an excuse as if the person on the other end HAS to feel sorry for you when they care about WHO you are.. not what you are, or whats wrong with you. People who generally care. I guess I may have come off a bit unclear in retrospect, but thats how I call things. I'm all for people making this world what they want it, but to lie to yourself, to others, to be fake without giving others the opportunity to see you and like you for who you are is wrong. Nothing, thankfully has happened to me personally. None of this is fueled by me being "hurt". It is partially from disgust at others behaviors and what they do to genuinely honest people who are just looking for a friend. There is no exuse for egos, deception, popularity contests, and generally treating people like crap. Yet is goes on in the cases of my original post. I understand, and agree. ![]() _____________________

Was this trip really necessary? The bumpiness of the road surface creates a rather pleasant vibration. _____________________

Well, I cannot let a "Freak, Liar, Sociopath" label everyone in SL that way, when that is exactly what they are. No way. Just no way. This place is great and does not need that type of person spreading negative hypocritical crap just because their spiteful. Especially about semi-literates that don't know the difference between "their" and "they're". Pep (It tends to destroy any attempt at gravitas.) _____________________

A place for fat, 40 somethings who are collecting disability ..or have something "wrong" with them to congregate, make themselves look like a model and adopt a spoiled bitches ego. Its quite frankly daunting. I am one of the 40 somethings who is collecting disability. I'm grateful to have Second Life available for me to socialize and have some fun. I know many others in a similar situation. Your comments show what a stupid, ignorant ass you really are. FUCk Off and have a nice day. _____________________
My interest in SL has simply died. Thanks for all the laughs

Oh noooo, I have no comment on that situation since I know nothing about it. I'm talking specifically about the OP, I think he has gotten off lightly. I've also found his splotches of backpedaling cringe worthy. _____________________

If this is so bad, why are you here, and why have you been here since 2007?

The longer I deal with people who are online all the time, the more the cliche runs true. A place for fat, 40 somethings who are collecting disability ..or have something "wrong" with them to congregate, These two sentences are what did you in. The rest of youp post was a familiar and entertaining take on some of the lunacy that goes on in SL. Had you not made that one sweeping broad generalization, you may have avoided a lot of the doo doo that came your way as a result. _____________________

I've also found his splotches of backpedaling cringe worthy. There's a difference between backpedaling and clarifying intent. I wasn't trying to generalize across the board in regards to sl, and those who felt they were being targeted, I apologize wholeheartedly. I try and look at things broad spectrum. I was half expecting a discussion and it seems perfectly clear it was taken as a flat out attack. Again, that was not my intent. |

...It was the collection of all those things together. If i hadn't said 40. Or disabled, just the drama queen, egos, stupid juvenile behavior and such it wouldn't have blown up like this.. its because I wrote the circumstances of the few individuals this pertained to. But I'm "projecting". Yes thats it. I must be addressing every single person who has at least one of the things in common with what i mentioned. .... You generalized. Bad move. Yes, we know the people you are talking about. We've met them. But you've taken some specific examples of behavior you don't like, and pasted them on "9 out of 10 SL residents", and happily went on to diss this community of losers that actually exists nowhere but in your own sour and cynical mind. I don't think you're going to get many takers. If SL disgusts you so, my advice is simple: There's the door, don't let it smack you in the ass on your way out. _____________________
