My SL Feed - June 2013

From First, to Last, all of my SL Feed posts from June 2013. Some of them have fun links :-)

At times, I would like to flag illiteracy as "inappropriate content."

I don't tire of reading this post: http://slchatter.wordpress.com/2013/03/04/blame-it-on-the-moon/ (Probably my favorite part of it: «I have said it before and I am not ashamed of my opinion, you don’t go to a comedy club and interrupt the regularly scheduled show to give a testimonial of your life and all the tragic details thereof. It is not what the customer paid for and they do not, just because they are within the same space as you, owe you audience, compassion, trust, and/or support.»)

I think I can blame Caitlin for this... :-) http://auryn-beorn.blogspot.com/2013/06/my-first-day-without-you.html (I've thought since ages about using SL to create these kind of stories, but never had time enough. She does it, almost daily, and it is so fun to read and see! I will for sure not be so prolific, but she sets a great example of what SL is good for... Your imagination!)

Now this is a videogame I will enjoy (if the creator ever finishes it...) http://www.storyteller-game.com/p/about-storyteller.html
(I enjoy SL too, but in a different level. I'm not going to enter into the discussion of "Is SL a game?" Technically, it is. But then we could see RL as a game either. For some it sure seems so. Is it relevant anyway that SL is a game, or the relevant is what we make of it?)

I've been giving this some thought and yet some more practice, and I feel I can now conclude that needles and scissors aren't a good idea for removing blisters hiding under thick skin from your feet. You're welcome.

I've asked a customer FIVE times to please detail in a notecard the steps followed, expected outcome, actual outcome, so I could know what could have gone wrong in setting up a script. Instead of reading the documentation and then providing me an input that I could examine (really, I don't read minds), there have been attempts of getting me making the script to work (then why would I care in writing documentation?), insulting my work, etc, etc. I understand that one can feel frustrated, but why after all this, the rude person, is me? (This happens more often than what my doctor says I should put up with.)

Chibi! My little helper, are you coming back to work with me? :-)

[Link to the original post in my feed]

He's my ray of sunshine. I can't be sad around that face.

[Link to the original post in my feed]

Uh oh... What did I say?

[Link to the original post in my feed]

Chibi definitely has my smile and Ansel's eyes. Since then, neither he can see nor I can talk.

Aha! So this was a free prop! I've rescripted it to just one, and now Chibi is happy.

I started sorting and packing from the untameable mark of 90,000 items, and I've just seen my inventory saying 29,327 items... Woohoo! \o/ (It has not been LL aided, but a quite conscious work of now EIGHT days... *wipes sweat from her forehead*)

I can relate so much to this: http://xkcd.com/1187/
[Link to the original post in my feed]

If there's something worse than manipulators, those are their victims they use as blind pawns. The victims will be the ones backstabbing you. Manipulators master the technique of making you show as the abuser, the one that has issues. Today I feel like sharing this link http://www.bullyonline.org/ and saying, don't fear steering clear from a friend that has turned into a pawn. Once they're puppets, you can't trust them anyway. You don't want them in your life. You don't want that they drag you to the manipulator's game. The only way to win that game is to never play it.

"We have bought products from you in the past and/or we think you have a fantastic store in SL." - And that's why you send the notecard to an alt for work purposes only that barely logs in, who doesn't show as creator of anything you may have seen, instead of the main account whose name shows everywhere. (Spammers should learn to read profiles. If you're going to spam, at least spam someone that will read your notecard in time for the promotion you're selling. Now I'm four months late for it. Bummer.)

Mesh <3

LI 0.5, as one would expect from simple geometries. This would have taken 10 prims (LI 5 even if you turn them to "Convex Hull".) It could have been done out of one sculpt, but 1, it would have been terribly complicated to model (in comparison), 2, texturing so it looked the same would have been a nightmare, 3, the shadow prim would still to be added, and 4, the LOD! (Where are now all the doomsayers that screamed loud "mesh noooooooo!"?)

I've just found a message sent to me through innuendo six months ago... So bad I've been busy all this time =) (Innuendo never works with me: If you want to say something to me, if you want to insult me, do it face to face. Otherwise, chances are, when, usually late, I finally realize you tried, I'll chuckle. Although face to face, chances of chuckling are quite high too.)

What a friend just told me, reminds me of just *one* of the many reasons why I decided to stop making customs in scripting.

- Customer B gets in touch with her, because he wrote a script but it doesn't work as he would like.
- She modifies this script that HE wrote (a source of trouble: you end up being blamed for problems you never created.)
- She sends the modification back to B, warning that she's not had time to try it (so the discerning mind should expect that, most likely, there might be problems.)
- She also explains to him how to carefully test the script.
- B replies back when my friend was offline. Despite of the "User offline" messages, he continues to ask "are you online?"
- Not having an answer, B threatens my friend with "telling the truth" in her profile feed. The "User offline" messages continue to pile on his IM window.

And of course... Almost all of the problems are in B's code, and B *never* tested the script as he should have done.

Yesterday I tried to upload a couple of snapshots, but it seems they fell under the snapshots-issue that was affecting many people on the feeds.

(That translation to Spanish, translated back to English, says: "The hand has to be washed, don't bleach don't fall, the iron is neat." - "Mano", if understood as the Mexican "manito", gives a whole new meaning to "Mano se lava": "John Doe washes himself".)

I'm sure that it's not the only group doing so, but this morning, quite some full permissions creators have been warned of the existence of a specific group devoted to freely distributing our licensed work. Reporting is necessary, but the root of the problem is the lack of education about what full permissions/copy-transfer means.
Since education is kind of my field, I'll try to help making it clear:

Copy/Transfer, Full Permissions DO NOT entitle to freely distribute the assets. We have to sell the assets that way so you can sell/gift your creations made with them, provided you've correctly set their permissions for next owner. Your creations. Not ours.

You purchase a license of use with some restrictions, which are specified at the point of sale and included with your purchase, and that you agree upon payment.

You are not allowed to freely distribute our work in copy/transfer or full permissions state.

It's that simple.
