But you can charge more if you add the fancy name. :D


but I am not charging :P

on a side note... blogs... I just might end up having to make my own blog and blog my own stuff, and such sheesh

tried contacting a few ppl, I guess I just got lucky with that one lady, others either flat out said no, they do not blog about places that ask, or they are too busy

(or they are themselves designers and the blog is for them only)(I did not ask those, I just was aware enough to know it was their own store they blog about hehe)


le sigh

hmmm not many guys commented on mine, I must be chopped liver

amar that is cute, looks like something I have been thinking about making, just have not actually brought it to the drawing board yet

the top is a little too busy for my tastes but the bottoms are cute cute cute

The top is busy to semi cover the goods :) The bottoms... well- they did not need to distract from the intended target

My guess would be, get a hold of Tao Takashi via the email at the bottom of the page and ask. I've seen other bloggers complain about it taking a while though, just so you're aware.

hi guys, I think here is as good a place as any to ask this

I am sure some of you have used the device that is available at the hangout to see when folks are at the hangout, even when you are not there

what would such a device be called, or what would I look for if I wanted to try to make my own (what kind of scripts)

I would like to have one of those for the club, so folks can get it and use it to see who is at the club when they feel like coming over.

I tried on my own name and put Rha

none found, put full first name and it comes up...

put RhaRha (my alts) and they come up,,, but Rha doesn't bring them up

Well I just got up and in to work and then saw more comments about last night. Fine, if the topic is closed for you (and I mean anyone) then don't feel a pressing need to respond. If you want this to continue then continue posting in reply.

From: Kira Cuddihy
What, you mean you didnt see that sign outside of the door that Gabriel is boycotting that store. Sorry for being snarky, but when we go shopping we have no clue who has had a problem with a certain store or creator. We merely do the best we can. Rha, you are a good person, a hard worker. I know it is hard not to let others comments bother you. I have been there many times myself when someone misunderstands my words. Keep up the good work honey.
It is strange but I imagined people actually read the forums here and not just this thread. I find it hard to believe that those who profess to be unaware of the store owner's reputation and business tactics are as actually unaware as they say. It is not like there are not lots of examples of this particular business owners honest, caring and generally community minded views. It is not just confined to actual threads about this subject.

It is as simple as this. If there is a dishonest business that is using tactics that not only cheats the system could even have a destabilising impact upon the performance of SL as a whole (debatable but not proven to be wrong) then it should be of interest to any who have complained about the unreliability of the service. To then give your money to such an individual is saying that either I don't care or I support it. Either way I do not want to give my money to those people either. That is what I said and I stand by it.
Would you be happy to shop at the store of a known Griefer if they then continued to Grief? Would you not expect people to think you supported them?

From: Rhaorth Antonelli
I read and caught up, had a knee jerk reaction to saying I will not post (obviously by this post I will continue)

however I do want to say, that gabriele , you could have simply sent me an im or a pm and said your piece to me in private.

I have no idea what all the hoopla is about with phil and unethical, I do not read every thread or keep up with everyone's work practice

If their item is what I need then I get it
I have gotten the gist of the fact he does something to get higher traffic, which to me means nothing, so in my opinion he is not doing anything that would cause me to stop shopping there

you taking the stance of not shopping at my place because I shopped somewhere that you already boycotted for your own reasons is just a little too... dramatic (to me) and your bringing it up here, in such a way that felt like you were putting me down (my first reaction was.... what the fuck did I do? why is she attacking me like this? I did nothing to her) which is why my knee jerk reaction was to get the hell out of dodge

you have a right to not shop where ever you wish to not shop, however classing me into an unethical classification because I shopped somewhere that you consider the owner of to be unethical was downright wrong.

I just hope your little bit of drama doesn't damage my already struggling business, and that the lurkers who might have gone to have a peek, don't decide based on what you said, that I am unethical and do not visit. (maybe that is why you posted it openly, that was what you intended)

on that note, I bid you a good day, to say I have no hurt feelings and that it will just go away would be lying, however I can truthfully say I do not hate you.
Rhaorth, if you truly have not read any of the what must be hundreds of examples of this business owners posts and the reactions he causes as well as being completely unaware of the impact of what his quest for number #1 ranking means, and you completely missed my post to Brenda before you bought anything then I am truly sorry. Obviously you cannot be held responsible for things you did not know about.
It does seem from your comments though that had you been aware it would not have changed anything. Please put me straight if you feel otherwise.

I felt I had to say something in in public rather than PM because I felt if nobody did then it would to the next person who comes to this thread look like the whole thread finds it acceptable to support shoddy businesses and their tactics by shopping there. I could not with good conscience say nothing and beleive me I agonsied over whether I should post at all. It was not with the intent to hurt you or anyone that I did it.

I doubt my decision will have any impact upon your business whatsoever, however whom you seem to be supporting in public might. I would be more wary of that.
As for drama, this has blown way bigger than it was ever intended to be, I made two posts. One to you and one to Brenda. Everyone else who responded created the real drama and naturally I feel as though I have to defend myself when that happens.
You see it cannot be two ways. Either its a forum and we discuss things and that includes criticisms, disapprovals as well as encouragements and support or its not. Those who posted in response except for you and Brenda seem to be taking the stance that its a forum in which they are allowed to criticise me but in fact my ability to criticise in the first place is disallowed. Not really very reasonable either.

As I said before Rhaorth my post was never personal to you. I would have said the same to anyone and taken the same stance. It was to make a public point. However I understand that it is not easy to push feelings aside.

Where do we go from here? I am happy to drop it but I will respond to snide remarks, further criticisms and other points I feel need to be responded to. Especially if they come from people other than you Rhaorth.

if it says it was made somewhere in upstate NY I'll fall outta my chair. I know my pies, but that was scary accurate even to me.

oh, ha ha. i made that up. and anyway, i should have said blueberry-custard-apple-cheesecake-pie to be more accurate, with the crust being the way it is, and all. :p

When my sister visits me, she goes out every morning and brings me coffee about the time I wake up! Is that a cool sis, or what!

Oh, and BTW Brenda, the words "instant" and "coffee" do not ever belong together.

well a bad day is starting to get better

headache going away, allergy pills kicking in
getting the bar/club set up slowly (lots of dance balls out and such)
still lost on the database and php and all that crap

and I got another linden pic for my wall of linden fame hehe

(history) when I first opened my club, Dan Linden dropped by, and said I should put pics of lindens on the wall, like they do with famous ppl in RL, usually the owner of a bar will put up pics of themselves with celebrities they have met

well I liked the idea so dan was my first... hehe

Off and on through the last 2 years I have closed and reopened my bar a few times, and am doing it again (I get bored, but mainly I just miss having it)

I only put up pics of lindens that have taken the time out of their busy day, to drop by the bar to get their pic with me so I can add it to the wall
so far I have Dan, Harmony and Sejong, (I could have had others but the bar was closed LOL)

I just got Morpheus, Thank you Morpheus if you happen to be lurking.

So... on that note, I hope to be able to grab some other lindens when they are not so busy, to get their pics done too

It is a silly little thing, some folks would say, they are just people like you and I, and I woudl agree, however in the land of SL, lindens are pretty much celebrities, and it is cool and different to have them in pics on the wall, pics that were taken at the very club/bar that the pic hangs in

call me weird or strange, I don't mind, I just think it is unique and cute

PS and it made me smile, which is something I really really needed today, so once again, if you are watching, ty Morpheus, for once again.. making me smile :)

the Linden wall of shame..... err... i mean, fame. LOL
