Infected Second Life and its many strange users/uses.

[Calling]

All this makes me want to crawl into the depths of other multiplayer games and just see what debauchery lives in the community. I'm curious: does this sort of needless drama happen in other online economy simulators? Is there secretly a Neopets sexual deviants club somewhere?

Yes. See: Gaia Online. Not to go off topic, but last time I looked at Gaia, it was RP topics along the vein of "ur walking thru the woods n find an attractive unconscious grille, what do u do".

SL is nothing special, there's just more speds to go around since you can customize your avatar to your speshul donut steel furry OC.

After reading this thread, I decided to finally take a look at Second Life. I shouldn't have because I'm hooked up to it now, fuck you Kiwi.

You've never experienced life until you've been listening to shitty covers of rock band in a Metal club all while what seems to be the avatars of boomers from around the world are spamming ASCII and cringy macros coupled with sounds we all heard but prefer to forget. Icing on the cake was a turkish man who couldn't speak a word of english but he had a broken translator. Oh yes, the term smexy is still a thing there.

One of my favorite thing to do is hang around sims where a lot of players are connected and look at the disconnect between what the profile says and how the avatar looks.
I had the occassion to find a black avatar who kept following me in a store, she was dancing all the time. After a while I decided to take a look at the profil of the user, it was pretty tame until I checked the groups he/she/it was in: all of it was degrading raceplay towards Afro-American, I couldn't help but cry of laughter. I engaged a conversation but the user didn't seem interested or brave enough to talk to me after being a stalker for half an hour.

*I LOVE THIS TUUUUNE!!!*

It's quite amazing how you can practically time travel based on locations. The usual fuckdens are top of the line 1080 TI's, while any other rave/edm/Nickelback club is straight out of 2008. Clubs are low hanging fruit, go look up the (furry) sandboxes. They tend to have walls of grafitti and cutouts of their hilarious moments like some sort of credits scroll of a 90s sitcom. Also, again, a big deal of "Heh, SL users... but wanna erp?" sorts present here.

It's weird because that club isn't that bad (in terms of music, the people eh), it seems that even most of the users who usually go there know when the boomers are out and avoid their "set".
I can't help it but feel sorry for actual djs that put effort in what they're doing in this, what I mean by that is I've rarely seen people that structure their sets and watch their transitions.
Looking at clubs, some of them really don't know what kind of music should be played: I see a lot of EDM/Metal/Rock yet I don't think putting Death Metal to a fan of Goth Rock will please them.
The cringiest has to be the hosts, I swear if I hear the formulation :"Show them some Lindens Love" I'll explode.

I'll go take a look at furry's later, I've been mostly checking out clubs because I can at least discover some artists there. I don't think you can get anything good out of furfags.

Is there secretly a Neopets sexual deviants club somewhere?

Probably. Last I checked though (probably around the year 199, there weren't alternative Neopets clients dedicated to advancing the realism of your BDSM experience.

Hardcore RLV

Hi ! You might remember Boy Lane's "Hardcore RLV" version of the RLV, a long time ago. That version, unlike the official RLV, did not have...

EDIT: Why couldn't we have skipped 2019 and gone straight to 2020? 2018 and 2019 look so similar.

I've had an account there for about 8 years now and its really fun to go with a group of friends and mess with people. One of my favorite moments was going to a furry auction, where furries get sold off to other furries for sexual favors. Some of them bid as much as 10k lindens for a sex partner. My friends came in to the place and would make very high bids and not pay them out if they won said furry. Also they kept making comments about them being slaves and the admins of course didn't like that very much.

 

[TaimuRadiu]

I remember reading about countries setting up "embassies" in Second Life. Did they have any protection against being spammed with giant penises?

 

[whatever I feel like]

The John Edwards presidential campaign sure didn't.

So... Any of you guys ever been to slsecrets/virtual-secrets? Was considering bringing this up earlier. It's kind of like simsecrets except it's all people in their 40s having a midlife crisis over fake babies or something. Nothing too exciting but might be worth a few laughs if anyone's interested. The comments section might actually be more interesting than the actual posts tho

Virtual Secrets – I bet you think this one is about you

I bet you think this one is about you

Selected 2 random ones from 571 and 569.

I have no one what this one is doing here but I'm adding it anyways because i thought it was hilarious

 

[Remove Goat]

LMAO I'm almost ashamed none of you have brought up the fucking CSI crosspromotion thing they did in 2007 in, what, 4 years?

They made an episode around Second Life and it's essentially the exact same treatment they gave furries in Fur and Loathing.

Wow, how did they get Andrew Dobson?

Second Life is still a great place for lolcows, no matter the community that forms there's always drama on the horizon and its amusing to watch it unfold, especially in the griefer groups. However you can't farm the cows much these days, obvious trolling has made the majority understand how to ban and eject. The real juicy lolcows pop up in group chats, whether its someone upset that they didn't get to pixel fuck someone else or when a beloved furniture creator was found to be using stolen assets. There's so many dramatic events to talk about, one day I will have to make the effort to chronicle some of the more crazier ones.

The problem with a lot of these lolcows, not just in Second Life but also in other isolated online communities, isn't just that trolls have made them more insular it's that the internet as a whole has totally left them behind. Even that absolute faggot Britbong has left Second Life trolling and gone on to running a honeypot instead.

Someone mentioned Gaia Online and that used to be a hotbed for awful teen drama, but like all forums it's a dying medium. The people who started out on it are adults now and mainly don't go there. I can definitely remember a lot of amazing and totally bizarre drama happening in online communities like that, especially the forums, including people literally being sent to prison, but getting new people to go back into those places and record the history is about as hard as getting old members to actually remember the craziness as anything but a hazy recollection.

To give another big example The World of Warcraft Private Server community has a lot of lolcows and degenerates, but it will never get anything but minor mentions because the impact of drama is super localized even if the people might have a wider presence (I recall seeing a Roleplay Heaven profile name linked in a screenshot of a zoophile's f-list profile, for example, but they were getting laughed at for their f-list profile not whatever they did on WoW).

Goto any RolePlay server for any game and you're bound to find some insufferable people who take the game and RP way too seriously.
Every RolePlay sever always has a shit storm in the forums and most of the time the server eventually implodes because of drama.

I do remember there was another thing like second life called IMVU

IMVU is shockingly still used. It's more popular with """""""urban""""""" and scene thots.

There's actually this awful JayStation-for-women style chick who does IMVU videos. You might find it funny.

As a bonus here's a black chick doing more roleplaying for youtube audiences. These women are basically the average user, plus hood men or wiggers pretending to be hood men.

It's nice to know that the IMVU thots look about the same as the thots on SL.

I've been looking to get back into second life trolling, maybe document some of the funniest moments.

Only 2 things I know about IMVU. One is how way back in highschool the little edgy unintentionally funny muslim weeb kid that got into all kindsa antics kept telling me how I should play it,along with also asking me if I liked linkin park.

The second is trolling videos like this.
