Walkabout: "So Shines a Good Deed..."

Guy with a giant knife sneaks up on Philip swinging a golf club...he then stabs him in the back...

Poor countries are known for being places where poor people have a lot of kids as a coping tool for the survival of their nation under the duress of poverty and disaster, often man-made...and countries in transition are known for having a lot of different political parties and factions and a lot of newspapers of every persuasion and often as many religions and cults...Second Life is no different. What we have now are LOTS of people.

With all the kids coming in, Dad seems to be about more. He even came on one of his famous walkabouts to Ahern. Absenting himself from his golf game in the walled-garden sim of Santa Cruz or thereabouts, where apparently there is a kick-ass golf course with realistic play (this has to be investigated!), Philip stopped at the WA and did some ejecting of playes, took a pixelated knife in his back and said it didn't hurt, changed out of his preppy duds into the old, familiar, scripted flashing boxer-peeking jeans and quoted what he thinks is Willy Wonka, but as I later told him, is actually Willy Shakespeare, only very slightly different (Portia says, "So shines a good deed in a naughty world," in "Merchant of Venice." Perhaps there are textual variations, I await correction.)

Toward the end, Philip even said that he didn't mind the god-mode thingie. Pictures to come...

The surface area of griefing, squared, cubed, and SeifertSurfaced...

Kahn Moore: why do people grief?

Preppie as all get-out...

Mark Assia: Thanks, Philip
Tyrant Ludd: because grieifng is fun
Josy Mathys: Thanks Philip
Scovir Paz: For goodness sake? XD
Vicho Daikon: There we go! ^_^
You: Philip did you revise you theory yet about griefing? that if there were enough creative things to do people wouldn't grief?
Zoar Borel: Oh, and by the way, SL is awesome, Philip.
You: remember that theory you have like 2 years ago?
Kahn Moore: ya but it's called PVP
Philip Linden: yes prok I do
You: do you still believe in that?
Nyah Bauer: SL is like Jello, there's always room for it.
Sickness Blackflag: GAY
Mark Assia: lol
Mark Assia: I've never heard it put like that.
Tyrant Ludd: people that grief like messing with other people, i dont think any activitiy besides griefing would satisfy them, they need to be aimed in the direction of the combat sims
You: I mean, here's some guy named Sickness Blackflag shouting GAY at us -- and...it's because he doesn't have enough creative stuff to do here?
You: or?
Sickness Blackflag: but then its not griefing
Kahn Moore: oh sickness is cool
Waterfalzz Extraordinaire: sighs....
Kahn Moore: :)
Waterfalzz Extraordinaire: can we just chill plz
Mark Assia: Maybe we should create an entirely seperate combat grid, with only a few sims
Zoar Borel: Oh, and Philip, send everyone in Blumfield a nice fruit basket for having the vest sim in SL
Mark Assia: TP all the griefers there :P
You: well I'm hardly the one to complain about free speech as you might imagine
Mark Assia: See how long they stay
Zoar Borel: besy*
Zoar Borel: lol
Scovir Paz: Haha, Zoar. :)
Waterfalzz Extraordinaire: NO! doubt prokofy

CarlosDaRat Carlos: "The Cornfield" is "THERE"

Deco Dou: great job, you made a fl out of your sl.
Taylor Forti: And no I built this and so Starhunter
Indigo Nicholas: oh hehe taylor sorry

Zoar Borel: Hi, Ginny

Einsman Schlegel: oh i think i have a pic of what it looks like up there
Einsman Schlegel: sec
Karl Greenstein: lol
Jessant Sion: I'm bearing in mind, but you just booted Juni and other people who said nothing wrong
You: well the welcome area should not amplify the forums no
Philip Linden: so although we certainly respect everyone's freedom of speech and expression in SL
Mark Assia: Philip, perhaps one of the Lindens should whip up a rotating "NO DRAMA" sign :P
Diraru Murasaki: So the first thing alot of new people are gonna see is this...
Deco Dou: what will you offer for the money
Jessant Sion: that's idiotic
Jessant Sion: just clearing people out of here for nothing
Philip Linden: I think it probably makes sense for us to be pretty aggressive here.
Vicho Daikon: Did they actually do that Jess?
Kahn Moore: mark: make it rotate on fire
Jessant Sion: yeppers
Nyah Bauer: I I never understand why people can't be nicer to each other here.
Jessant Sion: annoying got booted for nothing

are youf orced to switch to bootlicking mode each time yous ee a linden and decide to shove your opinion down his troath by (baldy) acting as a friend?

[Cocoanut]

DANG. I miss EVERYTHING. It comes from having my head up a prim.

(Or from people not IM'ing me to tell me about it like they SHOULD.)

Doesn't much matter though, I would have been frozen senseless just being around that many AV's anyway, probably unable to turn my camera in Philip's direction even.

I just love reading these chat logs, though! Almost - but not quite - as fun as being there!

It always has that same disjointed feeling of 2-year-olds engaging in parallel play (where they play along side, but separately from each other), except it's lots more fun!

The CORNFIELD. Yes, Philip, I am still irritated by that. Apparently my exercise of the free speech LL so prizes made me such a terrible criminal I was even too awful to see the cornfield. Nope, probably not going to forget that my whole life long.

Dang, but they do talk dirty in the WA, don't they?

coco

[Prokofy Neva]

I found it hard even to type. It's hard to get anything done in those WAs. I saw Philip by accident. I wuoldn't think of IM'ing everyone I know to tp them in, sorry. Oh well at least I thought to copy it and blog it.

Yeah the WA is a cloaca.

[Brace]

cloaca

omg

that is so damn APT

:D :D :D

Yer WordSmith-Fu is in excellent form!

Aaaaand I see miz kyrah is STILL on that bender

[Cocoanut]

Yes! Very apt!

(I know the word from having raised canaries, lol.)

[Chip Poutine]

Hi Prok,

Just saw an article in the latest Metaverse Messenger on a new golf course opening July 1 in Hollywood (184,172). There's an ad on page 13 and the article starts on page 18.

[Prokofy Neva]

Yes, I saw that Santa Cruz seems to be part of the whole Hollywood continent, if you will. Looks cool! Can't wait to try it.

[Gwyneth Llewelyn]

Will one day, perhaps in ten years, people look back to that transcript and feel ashamed for their immaturity? :)

Or will they simple dismiss it, since acting like children in a world that is just 3 years old is appropriate? SL is not "mature" enough, and do we behave accordingly — by being immature?

It's a pity, though, since Prokofy (and very few others) were actually asking rather good questions. And in some cases, Philip was even willing to answer them.

In any case, it would seem better to do the discussion over a nice game of virtual golf anyway ;)

[Squeedoo S.]

Strange, this chatlog is from the birthday celebrations yes? Wow, he sure did change his clothes. Hmmm...

[Doubledown Tandino]

Personally, I don't think a joke involving weapons should be considered griefing.

Knifes, guns, golf clubs in SL are not RL weapons. I think someone that stabs someone in SL is joking.. like pulling a prank... and it should be viewed that way. Once the victim says that's annoying leave me alone, im busy doing something.. and the attacks continue, then it's griefing.

... but i think we all need to lighten up. I think goofs and jokes and in the light-hearted park stabbings should be okay. As long as it doesn't orbit my avatar or affect my avatar and the attacker stops when i tell them to, then it's fine.

Hi im tom

[Jessant]

Oh god, I remember this. *is vaguely ashamed* I remember being very angry when my alt AnnoyingJapaneseChild Dinosaur got booted (really what was I expecting, my name alone is like some sort of beacon). But it's such a stupid thing to get angry about. I haven't been back in the game in ages...This is a really great snapshot of that time. I logged in the other day and the same people were there, just using different names. Everything just seemed really arbitrary while I was playing. One time I griefed a sim so bad the sim went down for an hour and nothing happened to me and then I got booted here because of my name essentially. Very strange banning practices.
