And I don't think it's because I am not any good at explaining it. Even when I SHOW them they don't quite get it. And to be completely honest, I'm not sure I got it before I was here for a while.

Alts running around breaking up relationships and "Anonymous" postings on blogs.. Anonymity doesn't always bring out the best in people.<BR/><BR/>(Confession: I too have an alt, you'll know it when you see it.. Feel free to talk to me when you see me, I'll even friend you if you'd like. I just make myself "invisible" to friends with my alt so I can stay out of the IM stream long enough to do other things ~counsel people, take classes~. I hope that doesn't sound bad.)Jordyn Carnellhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16144999877343579000noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2419606629796019781.post-49734350013279410262008-12-30T12:11:00.000-08:002008-12-30T12:11:00.000-08:00um.. what you said sounds good to me.um.. what you said sounds good to me.Jordyn Carnellhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16144999877343579000noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2419606629796019781.post-27805106011561772172008-12-30T12:09:00.000-08:002008-12-30T12:09:00.000-08:00I had a similar plan Baz..

SL has sucked time away from so many tangential relationships.. and I have had to be very aware of the capability to take time away from the ones I consider primary. This place has the potential to make or destroy lives.. which is up to you.<BR/><BR/>I've become an IM and email friend to people I used to be in regular phone contact with (more efficient but less personal in some ways) and thanks to (i think) my ability to pay attention I have found myself in a counselor role in for six in RL and I can't track how many in SL..<BR/><BR/>And a cool thing is the experience of blogging about SL I've learned some RL skills that I may end up using.Jordyn Carnellhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16144999877343579000noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2419606629796019781.post-15873572709662891912008-12-30T11:44:00.000-08:002008-12-30T11:44:00.000-08:00I have as yet only meet one SL friend in RL..

I give mine out freely to those friends that ask.. and it is included on my less visited blog (jcgonewild).. so i'm sure people could find me if they wanted. <BR/><BR/>I don't usually ask people for their email addy unless i have a specific reason to.. I let people offer it instead.. I never want someone to feel backed into a corner and don't thrust my friendship on anyone. <BR/><BR/>But I do welcome it when people wish to be my friend.

(I mean in IM silly) I see how and what they reveal of themselves and how they react to what I reveal of me.. A form or "mutual unveiling." Depending on how that goes (and I go slow most times) I trust more.. or less. And I do usually hold some of me back. Usually.. not always. <BR/><BR/>That slowness is a reflection of the caution I exercise in Rl more than a reflection of "you" tho.. just to make that clear. (I'm not particularly shy.. but I am careful)<BR/><BR/>and since this is the eve of New Years Eve..

This move on the part of LL takes from the responsible OS sim owners the chance to be able to have the land they need and use it for it's correctly intended purposes. Not only will this not solve the problem, it will in fact create a larger problem when OS sims are longer able to be of use for residents and small businesses (both of which are not abusing the OS sims) that just cannot afford to pay the new rates. It's absurd they would even consider a notion such as this.darcyearnshawhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16558103675436339821noreply@blogger.com
