/\ - so many fond memories of all the shared experience things we did loving around in Baku and... Satyr? I think it was called in V5? I remember it was also integrated into IRC and it had a ban filter that would kick you out of the world if you misspelled words. My favourite bits were all the creativity on display spending a couple of days building an elaborate 'theme' that rivalled all the other lovely areas in Second Life, tweaking the description settings to lure pubbies into it for laughs, then nuking it every month and starting again fresh. I took so many photos and videos in that era. One day I'll go back and collate a bunch of stuff.

Geez, I don't know which is more disturbing, the "ageplay" stuff or the fact that some player cared enough about their virtual world to write a 50,000 word screed about it. I read about 3 screens of it and noticed my cursor bar had moved about 1 pixel.

I was playing this back in October of the past year, I didn't know there was a thread to bump. Second Life is an amazing internet time capsule that is absolutely worth exploring imo. If I remember tomorrow maybe I'll find and post my screenshots.

My weirdest SL story is from when someone released a "copybot" client that could clone objects in the game and there was a big copyright uproar about it, someone at a protest made a neat xerox machine which I edited so you could sit on it and print out xeroxed butts And then someone wrote an MIT research paper about it: https://web.mit.edu/comm-forum/legacy/mit5/papers/burcu_bakioglu.pdf  Fond memories of peak hype in 2006-2007 when a bunch of big corporations thought this was the future of the internet and absolutely had to get on that bandwagon. I can't believe it's been over 20 years

Waffle House posted:second life oh, jesus. virtual-secrets.com. i forgot about that site. it's an offsite repository for second life drama and poo poo talking. the mentality of most of these adult human beings who endlessly submit poo poo there is just.. gently caress. i still like to dick around in sl. mostly hanging out in the wastelands which a pal of mine runs. and i run weekly movie nights and stuff and it's pretty chill and fun. a lot of sl people are loving deranged, though.

logged on a bit ago for a rave, that was a different story, but im bouncing around worlds trying to figure out how exploration works and i stumble upon a baby gambling hall. i mena there were other normal looking people playing and such but all the dealers and most participants were infants, diapers and everything. it was very strange. the rave was sweet

Pasketti posted:I went to a Trump dance club on the 2016 election night using a twerking Goku avatar wearing a MAGA hat and I kept standing close to other avatars so I was grinding on them and they got so mad. It was fun until I realized he was actually gonna win. It was a much more innocent time. i wish akira couldve heard this

I need to actually fiddle around with VR Chat now that I have a better PC. It seems like it would be a blast to chill in with friends. I miss old internet quirky social programs like this. I spent many years in video game hub rooms in The Palace image chat.

I knew a guy who was convinced that 2006 was the future and utopia was now he had a job on the periphery of video game design and was really into second life he complained that his huge dvd collection was obsolete and that he had to buy everything on blue ray now he borrowed like $10k to buy a larger than average flat screen tv a year later Netflix started streaming, the game studio he worked at folded, think he got a divorce?
