Op, where do you get your pics from?
>>574224982Woah a rare OP without a weebshit image
>>574238864probably pimfeet
>>574252030feet?
Is it worth moving to primfeed from flickr?
>>574261926Yeah. flickr was never really the right spot for SL, but it's what the masses chose. Primfeed is obviously more SL centric, and has better posting features.
doesn't flickr block mature content unless you pay up?
>>574267091Yes, flickr is trash and most peeps moved away from it
>>574258579Which body has the best feet?
"NOOOO You can't just choose to spend your money how you want to!!!!!! You have to only give it to me and all these other useless furries who won't get a fucking job!!!!!!"
>>574262491>better posting features.like?
>>574270975Your opinion is just as worthless and uninteresting as theirs. Get off your high horse because you're nothing but another irrelevant annoying bitch
>>574270975that stupid cunt is always screeching some weird emotional guilt trip bullshit.
>>574272357I didn't give my opinion, I just translated hers for you because she's being indirect. Spend or save your money however you want. Just don't allow this retarded bpdemon have any influence on it because she's a fucking loser who can't get a real job and she's mad that some people have standards.
imagine spending your life reading the social media posts of people you hate... who is the real loser here? it's you.
>>574273075This logic doesn't work when she's a massive fucking lolcow.
>>574273706post that in her replies
>>574273706Who is this brown lady?
Imagine spending a minute of your life reading the social media posts of people that hate you! Who is the real winner here? It's me!
>It's me!Literally who?
>>574276035A clown. Don't you see the makeup?
>>574281258The brown clown..
>>574270975imagine crying about how people spend their money while real life shit is so fucking expensive. if i needed to cut costs and spending down, my hobbies would be first to get skimmed down. add in some controversy i feel like boycotting, and it's a no brainer. what a fucking retard.
>>574281668I can imagine it
gooning hard rn
>>574270975in between posts she was literally retweeting expensive furry art commissions of her sona and begging for money while oversharing about how being abused makes her bad with money. i cannot imagine things being this serious all the time on a furry sex game.
furry sex game holy shit anons
>>574297561Yeah, that's what I play
i aint exactly.. yellowbut i aint exactly green
>>574299378looks like he just came back from the indian poop festival
does anyone else message the creators of the products you bought to fix their shit? i actually got the person who made these wraps on my legs to fix the texture mapping because it was all fucked up. same with the saxophone, the animation wasn't bringing the saxophone mouth to my lips when i held it, so i nagged the creator to fix that shit and he finally did it. It's a little autistic , but honestly if they just made it full perm or moldable they wouldn't have to deal with it.
>>574305213yeah, on two different occasions I IMed someone to tell them the perms were messed up and they promptly fixed it
>>574305213a few times, mostly about getting things fixed and making sure they're aware of the problems. Usually they're pretty grateful about it.
>>574305213I remember there was an alpha problem on a piece of clothing I got. My message was ignored, though, and the clothing was never updated :(
>>574305213i haven't yet
>>574299378Is this supposed to be vitiligo?
>>574334134Shitiligo
Yeah
khajit already lost to the forum boomers
I never lost
>>574351614my burn was so good it got the thread locked tho
>>574295556They especially need to make a lot of stuff cheaper now, to make it easier for new people who don't want to spend a lot.That new head I saw cost about 1,200 Lindens when you could buy a whole furry avatar for that price years ago.
New look for the summer?
>>574354509Inflation only moves in one direction kiddo.
>>574261926Primfeed has made it easier to find SL related posts in one place instead of BlueSky, Twitter, or Facebook. It felt like they really needed a centralized site before Flickr shot itself in the foot.
>>574355024does primfeed allow adult images?
>>574354993Yes, it's totally fine to pay even more for no mod crap. Just don't ask questions and consume product.
>>574355456I don't consume product. You were the one bitching about prices, implying that you are actively shopping.You've been owned, pwnd, sliced diced and trumped.
>>574355147It has always allowed adult images from the start and you can turn it off with filters. They have specific guidelines for what they allow for mature and adult ratings, so make sure to check before posting.
>>574356019in that case I wish it had existed 4-5 years ago then when the ban on adult images on flickr was making my life hard. my interest in photography has nosedived lately though
>>574355746You don't have to be an avid shopper to notice price gouging when you see it. One of the main things I see new people complain about, is spending money where they don't need to.i.e. "you have to buy this body and this head for people to pay attention to you on the grid" And still, the apparent experienced users get on people's case for wanting free or cheaper stuff.
>>574356279I didn't use Flickr much myself, because I sadly became aware of the kinds of people who flocked to it for the adult pics. They also wanted you to pay to expand your gallery, and Primfeed doesn't place limits on how much you can upload.
>>574356761I actually totally agree with you on most points and I spend very little money in SL. no one has to. If you feel you need an expensive avatar for people to "pay attention" to you, you're probably a coomer trying to fuck. no one else cares.https://marketplace.secondlife.com/stores/257997Walk the grid in one of these free avatars and you'll get plenty of attention. Also worth noting most things at Grendel's are 0-25l :)
>>574357667I started off getting a bunch of freebies and cheap stuff, but I didn't care about doing poseballing. I think a lot people forget that you can get far on SL by having an actual personality and being sociable too.
Whoever said that people on SL want to look like the asian beauty filters...you need an award.
>>574358417>poseballingnoob here, what is poseballing? i know avatars can sit on poseballs in SL, but i don't get why that would make anyone popular
>>574352620you joined the other cat based furfags who shat up the forum, disappointing
>>574361154Poseballing is just a euphemism for SL sex. There is many a user who think being the most fuckable avatar will make them popular. Some have tried it and ended up being pariahs in the end.
>>574361154>"I can't even see the fucking poseballs.">"Ooooh">"Marvelous"
So who won the 1 million lindens?
>>574367654Not me. :(
>>574355456can i get a link to that gloss, sis?>>574305213i have but not often, i try my best not to come off as a karen
>>574367919same :((
>>574360425gross how male sexuality drives beauty standards to be increasingly neotenic for women and feminized for men. in 20 more years the beauty standard will have evolved into grey aliens
>574376941schizo babble
>>574376941There are SL avatars that have already looked like that for over a decade, anon.
>>574381785I am aware. Our evolution toward the greys has been going on for a long time, has been accelerated by the advent of advertising, and is accelerating further still thanks to virtual worlds, plastic surgery, and image manipulation softwareSome theories posit the greys are merely humans visiting from the future. As time goes on I begin to think it likely.
>intentionally make your skin grey so that everyone thinks you haven't loadedI'm so devious
>>574267091Who are the sad sacks that willingly pay for Flickr? The faps on there can't be that good.
>>574392259they aren't, that's why people moved to primfeed..
>>574392259Same people who pay for Discord nitro and SL premium
>>574396406I pay for one of those
Come check this Japanese cultural eventhttps://maps.secondlife.com/secondlife/Milarepa/61/32/43
>>574402870cuck
>>574403245I'll think about it
my entire life is performance art but no one appreciates it
who just joined my channel? I came in here to be alone
>>574408861Me but I left when I saw you in it
>>574408861why do you chose to be alone? I don't understand it
ugh>>574411747
does pbr cause more lag than normal texturing?
>>574420236No.
>>574392901Took a look at Primfeed and I see some avatats with gigantic asses. I guess LL is OK with this?
>>574433401Are you a USian?
>>574433401Is there a reason they wouldn't be?
khanigger and nigjeet shit on my birthday cake
>>574434071Most people would shit on your birthday, unless they're backed up.
You are all fucking faggots.
>>574433401LL doesn't own primfeed
Primfeed is dogshit though, everything bad about social media with the added bonus of SL boomer insanity
>>574443138if you don't like social media then why would you be on a social media site?
>>574434070I thought they'd be way more conservative about their image. Even recently they added another adult hub, so...do the Lindens just have cyber sex now?
What's good gang it's your boy soulja boy Where the good rental spots at?
>>574448180I would probably rent at a soul2soul property or a place like Voroznia or Motherland if I was interested in that kind of thing
>>574420236If your GPU is absolute dogshit yes but for the most part no; it isn't like, RTX or anything it's just a straightforward render pipeline change. The real reason toastergrandmas in trailer parks can't use SL with PBR renderers and cry about it at their biker clubs is because it came out with a dogshit unoptimized implementation that Firestorm and most other viewers further struggled to implement properly AND an incredibly fucky real time reflection system that is obscenely and needlessly taxing because of its render update rate. I had some fatass sounding chainsmoker kick me from her parcel for wearing PBR gear with no fallbacks because I was "trying to fry her PC" lol
What is this? Criminal chic?
>>574441596It is probably a good thing they don't own it, and it's just run by a seasoned user.>>574443138I would argue that I prefer Primfeed compared to the other social media sites, because it's way less political and people aren't allowed to do unhinged shit.
>>574454541Primfeed also doesn't allow AI slop which already makes it better than any other social media site, especially FB.
Another Saturday, another day of Saturday morning cartoons.
>>574454756There is some AI slop that sneaks in on occasion, it's just not really allowed in the public gallery and has to be labeled.I think the community is better about reporting it which is why it's not as prevalent.
Very strange breed of cat.
Don't quite know what I'm looking at here.
>>574454762Another Saturday night and I ain't got nobody
>>574444504because stores now only show their ads on their primfeed?
>>574479336Most likely because it's the best place for it because people don't use classifieds as much these days.
>>574458909Arena Grenade
>>574481963they used to send out the Ad in a texture in a group notice, now its just "teehee click my primfeed to see"
>>574454762I feel bad that I keep forgetting about this and do actually want to sit with strangers and watch old cartoons.
>>574456847It looks like a FFXIV character
>>574490031same, which timezone is this even in?>>574488240i actually havent seen a brand link to primfeed its usually flickralso do i have to log into an sl viewer to look at primfeed
>>574490031It's not that interesting
>Roblox gets a promotion with The Odyssey Movie and a Rolling Stones concert>Second Life gets ???
>Fortnite gets Odyssey collab and DC bikini women>Second Life gets...
ouh la la event has some of the worst freebies i have ever seen even some of the products are trash>poor quality textures>bad modeling>ai slopone store was literally selling ai generated textures and calling them backdrops
>>574504319>>574507625suck it
is it worth getting into this game as someone who didnt grow up playing it
>>574517436This mostly depends on what you want to do in SL. I joined as an adult and I almost made an account for IMVU.
>>574517436It can be, especially if you like older games generally. You have to be willing to deal with a lot of jank.
>>574524806Learning the UI can seem daunting at first, but you can add or remove tabs to your liking. It's also important to adjust the graphics settings so that your framerates stay smooth.
>>574500808EDT>>574503891I'm sure you find it not that interesting, I just want to do something other than sit in a parcel and fuck all the time.
>>574509857Damn 20 years ago...
>>574533207yea
>>574539167
Nice you still here...
>>574546667
>>574551847
>>574525392I genuinely don't understand why this is so hard for people. To me there doesn't seem to be anything crazy about the UI.
Where do you actually meet people? Like what are some good places to go? Perhaps some under the radar places that attract decent people that dont get too laggy
Doesn't the presence of that statue (which I'm showing from the most SFW angle) contradict the very rules of that sim?
>>574557006What kind of people do you want to meet? be more specific than "decent">>574557638interesting places you hang out at.
ONE MORE DAY UNTIL MIDNIGHT ORDER!!!!
>>574558576>interesting places you hang out at.I was just searching for anime sims
>>574558794>he didn't know anime is a pedo-coded interest
>>574552071sleek
>>574531616I'm actually a fan of old cartoons, it's just that sitting and watching anything in SL has never interested me, I also don't go to SL clubs because I prefer my own music and dont want to tip some schlub
>>574577725Who would even need a tip
>>574582905Tipping culture on SL got started because people with no skills were trying to think of ways to earn money doing nothing
>>574582905They insist upon it, they try and shame you
>>574585692I only tip live performances or if they play a song I really like
>>574557638I want that statue. Is it on the MP?
>>574557638They probably mean toddler or tween avatars which also tend to label themselves via their profile.
>>574555170I've seen people say it looks too much like a 90s game. Might be because not many people played PC games that much?But it seems like people expect SL to be like Minecraft or a mobile game with touch screen controls.
you cant even find hair to wear lets not throw stones
im bored
>>574604596well that's how it is
>>574604596Hi bored
Japanese people make the most fun sims and parcels. I wish there were more of them.
>>574607457I feel like a platform like SL would normally thrive in Japan
>>574609105They had their own 3d chatrooms
fuckin hilarious
>>574619962hehe
>>574607457I'm so thankful I'm not asian
Does anyone know some stores that mainly sell accessories, glasses, and so on?
>>574558991>believing this unironically
>>574623905why?>>574610539like what
>>574626373Bondi maybe? Deep static I think too
>>574630240The ones who believe that are failed normies. Entire families take their kids to see Demon Slayer movies while wearing matching t-shirts.
>>574638970nobody does that
>>574639554what are you talking about social media posts are what everyone's real life is like all the time
>>574639554me do
>>574630325Because they have such weird facial features. The statue of GMan made me think about how Asians are forced to look at normal people in their media all the time and it must make them feel bad for looking like bugs.
ITS TIME FOR MIDNIGHT ORDER!!!!
>>574657761Is that a shopping event?
>>574607457ohh where at?
Yup
>>574677391That's in the corner
for a long time z

>>574697196yeah, all versionshttps://maps.secondlife.com/secondlife/The%20Shops/97/32/26
>>574697006>buying anything, let alone a body that is no-modlmao
>>574704657erm
Would you want to be trapped inside of SL like Sword Art Online?
>>574710585Yes, then I could goon forever.
>>574711040you do that now
>>574710585If I could still had full access to the viewer and could change stuff, sure

Any hot anthros?

>>574653942how do asians look like bugs? on average, asian people are not considered ugly by any stretch but i guess each person has their own preferences
>>574710585i probably would not, but it depends on the rules set>do i have the same powers in game as i would usually?>do i look like my avatar?>can we change avatars?>are ex regular users also trapped?etci dont think i would wanna be trapped with the sl userbase though
>>574746523I know what you are.
>>574752554
It is honestly pathetic seeing all these people wearing grids/hexes over their face and body as some form of copybot protection, they look so stupid.
>>574757882Post a pic? Not a phenomena I've witnessed
>>574758754
>>574737286Yeah
>>574759136What's with the prevalence of this retard eye thing? I see a lot of otherwise pretty avis but then you see their face and it looks like they were born with severe mental disabilities. Wtf?
>>574764813I think they usually look closer to fetal alcohol syndrome, but certainly getting in to down syndrome/retard territory too. All the baby faced/pseudo pedo child like avis have started to morph even further to disability looking.
>>574764813are you talking about her under eye make up? its a popular thing in asia>>574757882how does that affect copybotters?
>>574765476They believe it deters copybotters from ripping their skin because it has the pattern over it. Ignore the fact that it is usually done by people with hideous avatars and can be easily removed in photoshop anyway, so they just end up looking stupid with their 'demo' grid overlay.
>>574764813>>574764993The pervasive uglification of avatars in SL is something I genuinely don't understand. I think it might be related to boredom; people want to keep working on their avatar after perfection has already been achieved so it becomes increasingly distorted over time. But I could be wrong. This phenomenon is worthy of study.
>>574759136This thing looks sickly even without the grid
meant no harm
>>574780618lie

True, it would be way funnier to just post their addresses and stuff next time
Le trolling and doxxing is a tired and immature pastime. Imagine holding such a pathetic grudge against internet strangers for this long anyway
