From: spike Hydraconis ok I guess it would be important with all these links i was sent today.. how do i transport to them? do I type them in someplace? They are probably SLURLs, if you click the link, it will open a web page, click that and TP in (or it will open SL and you can then log directly to that place). If you are in SL already, the TP message will come up. You might find this helpful: http://sl4nowt.wordpress.com/2008/05/29/the-fast-track-guide-to-non-newbieness-for-boys-1-of-3/It's has links to a lot of great places to get everything you need. Not much about bits specifically in the tutorial, but you can get them while shopping for the clothes and skins. And, you'll have to get used to, uh... removing said winky when you are fully dressed if you don't want to be flashing everyone. The Free Republic and Sarah Nerds have freebie winkies.

From: Brenda Connolly What's his wife's name? Peg? No, It started because when he was mortal one of his peers declared that someone oughta to "put him out of his misery with a railroad spike" as he was considered a pathetic creature by the society of his time. It must have seemed fitting to the demon inside him that, once he had been turned, he would torture his victims before draining them, with a railroad spike.

By the way:
The best way to get free stuff is to have a female avatar. A short, cute one, with an empty profile, and some well-known freebie clothes, but not one of the n00b avatars because you want people to think you're trying. And have trouble moving around.
This works even if your avatar has a "male" name.

Someone inform Spike about Bloodlines now that we're talking Vamps.

Spike, listen carefully, if anyone sends you a bite request (a blue popup dialog with a request to be bitten), they are trying to co-opt you into playing a game called Bloodlines which is a pyramid type scheme masquerading and claiming itself to be a roleplaying/combat game. Once bitten you lose your soul which means being put into a database you never signed up to for who knows what further purposes later on. Do not fall for this, simply press the "No" button when you encounter it. If tempted to actually play Bloodlines remember this one simple fact: like in a pyramid scheme only the first handful and most the prolific players are going to be able to advance to the point where they are effectively safe from the predation of others. You will never be one of them and you will along the way have spent many L$ before you might otherwise realise this. Roleplaying a vamp might sound sexy and fun - indeed it can be but you definitely do not need to play Bloodlines nor pay for anything to achieve this (except possibly to buy a good pair of fangs  ) Hope this helps  VV

From: Konu Magic On a serious note, someone posted earlier about classes. I would suggest you go there. If you are scared of a guy showing you to the freebie places.... lol
BTW I can check my inventory and see if i have a winky you can have for free. Definitely go to Lindal's class on friday. She's a wonderful teacher.

From: spike Hydraconis hey how do i add my avitar from sl to my info here? Hi spike! I think this may have been lost in the general hilarity ... Click "User CP" up there to the left, then click "Edit Avitar." You can upload any 50 by 50 pixels or 19.5 KB jpeg or gif you want.

From: Brenda Connolly One of you guys will have to be in charge of him. Keep him away from Pep. All I would have done (except it has been done already) would have been to suggest that Spike joins the Forum Cartel group and attends the "Not Saint Valentine's Day - Just Shades of Red" party where I could have introduced him to one of the unpartnered ladies . . . Pep ( . . . like you or Lil?) PS My own dance card is filling up rapidly; if any of you girls are really desperate let me know here, as my PM box is already full of Valentines Cards)
