Hi...

I saw somewhere 15 avatars. All have the same newbie-clothes, they were just sitting, nobody did anything, no one speaks, no one has some infos in theier profiles, all were born on 20th or 30th or may. It looked for me definitly not normal...

Does somebody know what that is?

Thx for updating me ;-)

Sounds like someone is gaming the traffic numbers.

There was a time 1.7 client ERA and before that "GHOSTING" was a every day occureance. It refered to "AGENT(S)" that did not logout after the "AGENT(S)" did not disapear when either they loged or or changed Simulators. Nowadays GHOSTING can mean AFK
"AGENT(S)" that are left to gain money for the like s"DANCE Pad" and "Money Chairs".


"Ghosting" is a part of Sl history that was a everyday occurance. Long after the AGENT either loged off and or changed simulators that AGENT was still in that simuator as a "GHOST". I remeber talking to a person in one club but when i im her she was in another club for the past 2 hours.
