Second Life

Mynx · Senior Member

I DID start SL, but for some reason my computer didn't like it, so I gave up. ):

LaLa · Veteran Member

*Quirks a brow*
I tried starting it as well a few months back, but my compy didn't like it either. >w<
I find that strange...seeing as though...my compy has been allowing me to play a bunch of other games...even after that. u~u;

*mumbles softly*
Mebbe I should try it again..

I just loaded second life on my comp.

I had problems with the graphics at first, but to fix that I went to Edit-Prefreinces
and turned the graphis from low to ultra and then back down to med.

This fixed the graphics for me.

My toons name is Bestia Fhang.

What is your toons name MissA?

Do your recomend any groups? I saw one called Womanimals that looked interesting.

I was addicted to it last year but thanks to SecondLife I discovered BDSM, realized what was "wrong" with me (mainly I was a sub & didn't know it until then) & started exploring BDSM & my sub nature.

I met many interesting people (both kink & nilla) and had two Doms, the second one of which was a great man but died in a car accident.
I know He's in a better place and I'd like to think He's watching over me sometimes from Above

Anyway I don't actually use SL anymore because I'm too busy staying in contact with Master anyway I can.

And yes, SL is where I started using this nick "Tygra Beaumont"

aww tygra, your character is lovely! (she looks just like you! )
And Bestia, i'll add you as a friend

I love second life, but I never seem to be able to get into it, I will spend a few hours looking around but never find anything that grips me. What should I do?

MissAbsinthe · Senior Member

You know i'm pretty much the same, i'll play but for short periods of time, although in the past I have been able to play for much longer, the key to finding something that can grip you is usually in finding a good fun group of people to hang out with.

squeak · Member

I just started an account so i could check it out, but mainly i'm really into world of warcraft at the moment lol I dont know many girls that are into it however, never mind. maybe see you on second life :)x

So for those of you that play the game secondlife, I want your names so that I can stalk...Uh, befriend you XD

I know people that would argue any day that second life isnt a game, its a virtual world because you have no fixed goals or abilities.

I think it is a game though :)

There are finite games and there are infinite games.
A finite game is played for the purpose of winning,
an infinite game for the purpose of continuing the play.

Linden labs runs and controls second life, -setting boundaries- doesn't this suggest that second life is a finite game, with a long lifespan?

I designed my SL avatar based on my real self then it sorta got a life of its own and became neko.
That's when I started to envision sub+neko= kitten play
And here I am in Kittenplay!

They no longer try to control anything, as it's now open source for anyone to use/manipulate. It's also well known that they are also totally royalty free. In fact one of their policys were that they never wanted to run it, simply create a space for others to use and maniuplate as their own, hence why they even offer consulting services.

So you could say the second life is almost like a media based wikipedia? If anyone can edit it, doesnt it stop being a game, and more of a tool? I assume it depends on the wafer thin line between an infinite game, and a virtual tool..

I am so glad I joined this forum, just because I can sit and think about things like this, that I would not normally on a boring sunday evening, thank you smile

Well after poking around in it for a few hours I will have to agree with those who say its not a game. So far from what I've seen its a fancy chat program.

When playing Everquest I often thought that a virtual world chat program would be nice since sometimes people just logged onto the game to talk. I just didnt know there was such a thing already out there.

I might be missing something. If I run into any of you while online maybe you can give me a tour and show me what I'm missing.

Look for Bestia Fhang.

SL is a "fancy" chat program with lots of add-ons (sex & BDSM being the major subject on it).
Also I always thought SL is kinda like "Google": you'll find tons of stuff and looking for something specific is like searching for the proverbial "needle in the haystack" but oh you come across interesting things regardless.
And it is a safe enviroment to come in contact with realities you wouldn't dare try in real.

Also for some unfortunate people SL is the only way to experience/live "life" as they don't have the chance in real life because of physical or psychological problems.
Which pretty much made me realize how silly of healthy me to be addicted and spend hours on such a thing when I could do much more in real life.

... and I skipped this ONE subfoum and posted my very own SL thread in the General forum. ah well... My SL name is Paw Pawpaw (yes... its that dumb) and my kitty's name is Saberrah Lykin.

One development team even made and released (for free) a huge I am Legend game, about a year before the films release. It was a huge success and really showed what a versatile platform second life can be, more than just a "chat program"

I hang around on SL under the name Felis Darwin. (As in the next evolution of cat) Just a warning though, I'm not always able to be outfitted in kitty clothes. A lot of the time my SL Mistress has me attired in... well... very freaky things. Fun for both of us though, I assure you. ^_^
