15:11 Tasha (natashafetishqueen) thats is about it
15:12 Wordsmith Jarvinen Nothing obvious from me, this week.
15:12 Brace Coral I am falling behind on my Wordsmith stalking
15:13 Brace Coral I promise to Do Better
15:13 Douglas Cogspinner (cogspinner) slacker
15:13 Tasha (natashafetishqueen) and me on my wave jokes
15:13 Jorge Serapis I thought it was Carlstalking.
15:13 Tasha (natashafetishqueen) staking in general
15:13 Brace Coral points to her Profile
15:13 Brace Coral I graduated from Carl Stalking - I now run his Stan Club
15:13 Brace Coral LMAO
15:14 Jorge Serapis *smacks forehead in obvious enlightenment*
15:14 Douglas Cogspinner (cogspinner) its officially official
15:14 Wordsmith Jarvinen Notes that Fidget has been making prolific use of aubergine pollen.
15:14 Fidget (fidgetswidgets) sneezes
15:15 Brace Coral Fidget should win first prize at the fair!
15:15 Wordsmith Jarvinen Aye.
15:15 Fidget (fidgetswidgets) **preens and waves tendrils**
15:15 Wordsmith Jarvinen Okay, on to questions...
15:15 Fidget (fidgetswidgets) I spit seeds too, so I should take home the wonky prize!
15:16 Carl Metropolitan Didn't Lowevnwitch have a question?
15:16 lonezenwitch I just got back. Sorry.
15:16 Brace Coral ask away!
15:17 lonezenwitch Did My Red Quixote mention making extra classes, particularly one about rippled textures? I just wanted to day I'm completely for it, and will help him in any way I can (he knows that part).
15:18 lonezenwitch MR*** not My
15:18 Fidget (fidgetswidgets) Ack! I ddin't realize I was on your lap lonez. **blushes a deep purple and moves**
15:19 Wordsmith Jarvinen i haven't had a notecard from Red.
15:19 lonezenwitch Please excuse me, i was making a screwdriver, got distracted, and tried to drink it before addinf the OJ
15:19 lonezenwitch Fidget, It's ok if you were on my lap, I had a wonderful adopt-s-cat named fidget.
15:19 Brace Coral LMAO
15:19 Brace Coral yall so goofy :D
15:20 Fidget (fidgetswidgets) I'll swear there was no one there when I plonked down!
15:20 Fidget (fidgetswidgets) spits seeds.
15:20 lonezenwitch Pls side to the incedent? There are now several nicely sanitized surfaces around me.
15:20 Wordsmith Jarvinen I'd be slightly concerned about Red taking on more classes than he has, but not about him modifying content.
15:20 lonezenwitch plus*
15:21 LabKat I have a question.
15:21 lonezenwitch I thought so too. He sounded like he didn't want to do the work, but wanted to teach more.
15:21 Lucia TopHat Get's in line after LabKat
15:21 Wordsmith Jarvinen Miss Labkat?
15:21 Tasha (natashafetishqueen) hi LabKat
15:21 Brace Coral Hola :)
15:21 Lucia TopHat *gets
15:22 LabKat hello, do you have any tips for new people or new "old" people just starting out in SL?
15:22 Douglas Cogspinner (cogspinner) lots of classes
15:23 Wordsmith Jarvinen Well, the tutorial here is pretty much up to date.
15:23 Douglas Cogspinner (cogspinner) especially Avatar Safety
15:23 Cup Of Green Tea whispers Ah! Steaming Green Tea!
15:23 Tasha (natashafetishqueen) once you have your AV customized - or started - get out and explore
15:23 Lucia TopHat nods. Make search your friend
15:23 JamesFannon Holds up hand
15:23 Batista Corleone (batistacorleone) Helping those - this is what this sim all about ...
15:23 lonezenwitch LabKat, I would be happy to talk to you when we are done here. I am kinda new.
15:23 Tasha (natashafetishqueen) find your SL, find the groups regions you want to hangout in
15:23 Wordsmith Jarvinen Mesh avatars are harder to clothe than classic ones, particularly the set of ones done by LL a bit ago.
15:23 lonezenwitch And kinda older.
15:23 Brace Coral take lots of classes at many help/edu places :)
15:24 LabKat thanks lonezenwitch
15:24 lonezenwitch You got it.
15:24 Tasha (natashafetishqueen) but always be careful of items from strangers
15:24 lonezenwitch Oh, yeah!
15:24 JamesFannon Please is there any chance of some classes being held during the day? I am in the EU and it is hard to get on at night
15:24 lonezenwitch You would not /believe/ what I got the other day.
15:24 Wordsmith Jarvinen Or what you sit on in strange places.
15:24 Fidget (fidgetswidgets) Never sit on eggplants, they can get squashed.
15:25 lonezenwitch Mr Fannon, I am up at odd hours, perhaps I can help you too?
15:25 Batista Corleone (batistacorleone) LOL
15:25 Wordsmith Jarvinen (sitting and attaching carry default permissions for animations)
15:25 JamesFannon thank you Witch
15:25 Lucia TopHat raises hand
15:25 lonezenwitch is getting a little grossed out.
15:25 Wordsmith Jarvinen Wait -- squashed eggplants. That's a substantial DNA mod.
15:25 Brace Coral sending you notecard with lotsa schedule urls James
15:25 JamesFannon Thank you Brace
15:25 JamesFannon Ms Coral
15:25 Brace Coral should be able to find some you can attend :)
15:26 Wordsmith Jarvinen Lucia?
15:26 Lucia TopHat Yesterday's Photo Salon was canceled, I assume due to Memorial Day weekend. But today, I picked up this week's notecard and noticed that this Saturday is also canceled. Do you know when the photo class will re-start?
15:26 Fidget (fidgetswidgets) Shhhh! Everyone will want one if you tell them that!
15:26 Brace Coral hands it out like cookies!
15:27 Wordsmith Jarvinen I'll be updating the schedule later today and it won't be canceled for next week (AFAIK). Have to manually update the inworld version on Sundays and I was slooooow today.
15:27 Fidget (fidgetswidgets) thank you Dean Coral.
15:27 Lucia TopHat Oh, lovely. Thank you.
15:27 lonezenwitch Slower is better than faultier.
15:27 Brace Coral yw :)
15:28 Holly (hollydeni) thank you Brace
15:29 LabKat I'm just getting back into SL after a long absence. Feel lost and overwhelmed.
15:29 Brace Coral I cant see so awesome, so give a hollar if you want that notecard :D
15:29 Brace Coral I'm a retournee also LabKat - I know just how you feel
15:29 Brace Coral if you ever need anyone to hang out with, or ask questions; I'm ya gurl!
15:29 lonezenwitch Brace, I lost half a menu to goop on reading glasses.
15:29 Wordsmith Jarvinen You might have a chat with our tutor Rowen, LabKat. She just recently came back in.
15:30 Brace Coral loll lone :)
15:30 lonezenwitch Well, all are welcome to join me for fun learning in a while, and anytime thereafter!
15:30 LabKat thanks Brace and Wordsmith
15:30 lonezenwitch Do call me "Witch". Oh, or am I an adjective?
15:31 Brace Coral eyes Fidget while glancing at salad recipes...
15:31 Brace Coral Witch works!
15:31 lonezenwitch Yes she does!
15:31 Fidget (fidgetswidgets) shakes a tendril, wondering if someone is watchng her.
15:32 Carl Metropolitan Next Question?
15:32 Wordsmith Jarvinen Aubergines are friends, not food....
15:32 Elfbiter Skysmith (elfbiter) What's the deal with the horse heads on bunny statues outside? I have had some questions about that.
15:32 Brace Coral aww darn
15:32 Brace Coral lol
15:32 Brace Coral that is a great question
15:33 Fidget (fidgetswidgets) draws up a sign reading, "Do not feed the vegetarians."
15:33 Wordsmith Jarvinen Well, a small VC ploy to see who notices.
15:33 Tasha (natashafetishqueen) wondered about the horses heads... are we being made and offer we cannot refuse?
15:33 lonezenwitch Maybe there are hallucinogenic mushrooms in SL/\.
15:33 Brace Coral VC?
15:33 Tasha (natashafetishqueen) vice Chan
15:33 Wordsmith Jarvinen Along with the horse head being part of the recreation of a horse and carriage.
15:33 lonezenwitch ROTFF!!!!!
15:33 Brace Coral way too many abbreviations up in here just sayin
15:33 Elfbiter Skysmith (elfbiter) ETLAs?
15:34 Brace Coral <---re-newbified!
15:34 Batista Corleone (batistacorleone) agreeing with Brace ...
15:34 Wordsmith Jarvinen And, to paraphrase Maslow, if you have a horse head in your hands, everything starts looking like a horse.
15:34 Brace Coral dunno what all the stuff means
15:34 lonezenwitch Oh, we should have baptism for reborns, just non-denominational!
15:34 Brace Coral Yay!
15:34 LabKat When visiting Caledon, is period appropriate attire required/preferred or is the community come as you are?
15:35 Batista Corleone (batistacorleone) What are ETLAs for VCs???
15:35 Wordsmith Jarvinen And no, no offers that you can't refuse.
15:35 Brace Coral high fives Batista
15:35 Tasha (natashafetishqueen) we are open in our dress code
15:35 Carl Metropolitan Come as you are, but if you want to find period attiere it is cool.
15:35 Brace Coral its fun to dress up all steampunk/Victorian - I dabble
15:35 Tasha (natashafetishqueen) but please come dressed
15:35 lonezenwitch I _am_ in period attire... for Norway. hehe
15:35 LabKat haha
15:35 lonezenwitch LOL!
15:36 Brace Coral <---behold the turning cogs on my tophat!
15:36 Holly (hollydeni) tired from dancing all night
15:36 Brace Coral wooo
15:36 Brace Coral grins at Holly :D
15:36 lonezenwitch I thik you are al just wonderful!
15:37 Wordsmith Jarvinen The horse head itself, was part of a test of normal mapping.
15:37 lonezenwitch But you really lick ass M Coral.
15:37 lonezenwitch KICK***
15:37 Tasha (natashafetishqueen) giggles
15:37 Brace Coral a pony!
15:37 Brace Coral great typos hehehe
15:37 Douglas Cogspinner (cogspinner) Horsey rides!
15:37 Fidget (fidgetswidgets) ohhhh -- horsie.
15:37 Wordsmith Jarvinen As to the rest ... it's coming along.
15:37 lonezenwitch Yeah, mine are epoc.
15:37 lonezenwitch epis, whateva
15:37 Carl Metropolitan That looks amazing.
15:38 LabKat I've got another question for everyone on stage
15:38 Brace Coral save a horse, ride a ponyboi!
15:38 Tasha (natashafetishqueen) peers around the stallion
15:38 Wordsmith Jarvinen That's at a land impact of 18.
15:38 lonezenwitch Sorry, couldn't resist sitting on the pony.
15:38 Brace Coral go for it LabKat
15:39 LabKat How did you find Caledon and how did you come to hold the positions you have now in the Caledon community?
15:40 lonezenwitch Good one LabKat!
15:40 Carl Metropolitan I was co founder of Oxbridge (along with Desmond) so that's why I'm here.
15:40 Brace Coral <--I love it here at Oxbridge :) I founded the Help/Edu org New Citizens Inc in 2005..
15:40 Tasha (natashafetishqueen) raises her hand to have a say on that
15:40 lonezenwitch Oh, NCI is great!
15:40 Brace Coral Been working in and around the Newbie Help arena for awhile - Carl ran the NCI org fabulously for many years
15:40 lonezenwitch I was going to take the noobs there.
15:41 Brace Coral So when I came available - he KIDNAPPED ME to work here as Dean of Development
15:41 Brace Coral basically: Fundraising Diva
15:41 Brace Coral Thank You!
15:41 lonezenwitch There is a self-guided tour, but I f you go with /me/, you learnmore.
15:41 LabKat wow
15:41 Carl Metropolitan Tasha?
15:42 lonezenwitch (btw, "noob" is NOT a dirty word!!!)
15:42 Tasha (natashafetishqueen) I was looking for something more fulfilling for SL after spending a lot of time in... darker... places
15:42 Wordsmith Jarvinen I started helping out at Oxbridge after it opened, and they just kept kicking me upstairs.
15:42 Tasha (natashafetishqueen) there was some debate with my name, I am told
15:42 Brace Coral lool
15:42 Tasha (natashafetishqueen) but they started me as a helper
15:42 Batista Corleone (batistacorleone) thinks by himself - This lonezenwitch lady is behaving strangely - does she plan to take over Caledon
15:43 lonezenwitch M qQueen, I was wondering, yes.
15:43 Tasha (natashafetishqueen) and it became clear I am a techie geek and helpful
15:43 Elfbiter Skysmith (elfbiter) prefers the term "newcomer"
15:43 lonezenwitch Are you nuts?
15:43 Holly (hollydeni) lol
15:43 Wordsmith Jarvinen With a fetish for helping these days (Tasha)
15:43 Brace Coral awesome!
15:43 lonezenwitch I have a fetich for breathing.
15:43 Tasha (natashafetishqueen) so they made me a tutor... then at Christmas Assistant Dean of Commons... after a year tutoring
15:44 Brace Coral .•*♥¨`• Applause•¨`♥*•.
15:44 lonezenwitch raises hand
15:44 Elfbiter Skysmith (elfbiter) thinks Tasha is doing well
15:44 JamesFannon Do we ever do things as a group, like go and visit places or go to the beach, just to find new places?
15:44 lonezenwitch Goos for you Tasha miss.
15:44 Brace Coral Soo I'm the only one the got kidnapped
15:44 Wordsmith Jarvinen Which also meant that Tasha took over management of tutors.
15:44 Tasha (natashafetishqueen) smiles... Elf held my hand through the first few months
15:44 Tasha (natashafetishqueen) thanks, Elfbiter
15:45 Elfbiter Skysmith (elfbiter) :-)
15:45 Carl Metropolitan Not really. However, if you join the Independent State of Caledon group, you will find lots of events... Often two a day!
15:45 Wordsmith Jarvinen Kidnapped with consent, Brace.
15:45 JamesFannon Oh ok, thank you
15:45 lonezenwitch Oh, indentured servitude. How very appropriate for the theme, LOL
15:45 Brace Coral pretty much :) I'd follow Carl anywhere
15:45 Brace Coral he's the Bee's Knees!
15:46 Carl Metropolitan I am not that great, but thank you :)
15:46 Carl Metropolitan Wordsmith, do you want to tell your story about your history at Oxbridge?
15:46 Wordsmith Jarvinen Oxbridge tries to maintain a low drama, pleasant/fun atmosphere.
15:47 Tasha (natashafetishqueen) with or without puns in the story?
15:47 lonezenwitch There must be pus!
15:47 Brace Coral hahaha
15:47 lonezenwitch um, puns
15:47 JamesFannon Can we have hats so we can all throw them at end of term?
15:47 Batista Corleone (batistacorleone) LOL
15:47 Elfbiter Skysmith (elfbiter) heats up the cauterizing needles to clear out pus
15:47 lonezenwitch Oh! That would be fun!
15:47 Wordsmith Jarvinen Well, my profile notes that I was once an itinerant teacher who wandered one day into Oxbridge.
15:47 Holly (hollydeni) smiling
15:48 JamesFannon it would!
15:48 lonezenwitch i can build the hats.
15:48 JamesFannon awesome Witch!
15:48 lonezenwitch I cna't make the scrips.
15:48 Wordsmith Jarvinen One person I ejected that the word itinerant meant I'd miss-spelled internet.
15:48 Batista Corleone (batistacorleone) LMAO
15:48 Tasha (natashafetishqueen) itererent ? does penecillin work for that?
15:48 Holly (hollydeni) lol
15:48 JamesFannon lol
15:49 lonezenwitch is about to need the ladies's room!
15:49 Wordsmith Jarvinen I started helping informally, and then was asked if I'd teach.
15:49 Brace Coral OOP!
15:49 Wordsmith Jarvinen And then was asked to be a dean of education.
15:49 lonezenwitch If I laugh any harder, i'll use the gents' if needed.
15:49 Larae (laraekell) TMI
15:49 JamesFannon lol Witch
15:50 Carl Metropolitan "itinerant" means you need adult diapers, right?
15:50 Tasha (natashafetishqueen) yep
15:50 Elfbiter Skysmith (elfbiter) :-P :-)
15:50 Holly (hollydeni) rolling
15:50 lonezenwitch It means like freelance.
15:50 Tasha (natashafetishqueen) with wi-fi
15:50 Wordsmith Jarvinen And finally, with rearrangement of deans, and since I'd taken on the roles of scripting and camp counselor, Carl asked if I'd be Vice Chancellor.
15:50 Batista Corleone (batistacorleone) "incontinent" means you need diapers - lol
15:50 lonezenwitch (that's plite enoght, yes Mr Metropolitan?)
15:50 Carl Metropolitan (I know. I was teasing Wordsmith)
15:50 Wordsmith Jarvinen Itinerant means wandering....
15:50 Batista Corleone (batistacorleone) ;o)
15:51 Brace Coral LMAO
15:51 LabKat I really appreciate everything that you all do to help new people and the community and especially for sticking with it for so many years. It really means a lot to have an opportunity to talk with you. You are like SL celebrities.
15:51 Brace Coral hot dang!
15:51 Brace Coral I'm famuz!!
15:51 Tasha (natashafetishqueen) blushes
15:51 Carl Metropolitan Diapers are fine as long as they don't announce in chat when they are being soiled. Don't laugh. Back when I was running NCI I had to ban someone for wearing very descriptive talking diapers (with color change).
15:51 Holly (hollydeni) absolutely
15:51 lonezenwitch Teaching is the best way to learn. :D
15:51 Batista Corleone (batistacorleone) ;o)
15:52 Brace Coral lool or talking ladyparts and winkies
15:52 Brace Coral ❇.¸¸.✯ Ғаiɳʈѕ Ɗгаɱаʈiᴄаllƴ ✯´¯`❇
15:52 Brace Coral ( º O º )
15:52 lonezenwitch Om
15:52 lonezenwitch Um
15:52 JamesFannon I love it here
15:52 lonezenwitch uh
15:52 Holly (hollydeni) me too
15:52 Wordsmith Jarvinen It is. There is nothing that motivates learning like knowing you're going to be standing/sitting before a class.
15:52 lonezenwitch Talking Diapers!?!??!?!
15:52 Larae (laraekell) SL has everything!
15:52 lonezenwitch Well, I've seen crazier things.
15:53 Tasha (natashafetishqueen) we could write a book about the rude talking things we have seen
15:53 lonezenwitch Um, heard?
15:53 Elfbiter Skysmith (elfbiter) has ejected number of talking diapers in his time
15:53 lonezenwitch Ok, may I make a "brief" annoincement at this time?
15:53 Carl Metropolitan If it is in the least bit fetish related yes, SL has everything. We are the only virtual world explicitly banned from streaming on Twitch
15:53 JamesFannon I hear there are talking tummies too
15:53 Wordsmith Jarvinen Witch?
15:53 Tasha (natashafetishqueen) there are, James, of many and varied types
15:54 Larae (laraekell) What's Twitch?
15:54 lonezenwitch bow
15:54 JamesFannon really Tasha? I thought they were joking
15:54 Brace Coral if you can think of it, it's already been done in SL
15:54 Elfbiter Skysmith (elfbiter) Twitch is a video streaming site
15:54 Elfbiter Skysmith (elfbiter) Owned by Amazon, I think
15:54 Batista Corleone (batistacorleone) What's happenong??
15:54 JamesFannon men havinbg babies!
15:55 Tasha (natashafetishqueen) all of it, James, seriously
15:55 JamesFannon No way!
15:55 Tasha (natashafetishqueen) and not so seriously
15:55 Brace Coral yup
15:55 Wordsmith Jarvinen Let Witch talk.
15:55 lonezenwitch Dear fellow noobs, and re-born noobs, I must attend to RL matters for a while. Would anyone like to have some tutalage from me in a while?
15:55 Brace Coral lol
15:55 JamesFannon Ooooh heck, keeps legs crossed
15:55 lonezenwitch (RL matters = cats want sdinner NOW!!!)
15:56 Brace Coral great to meet you Witch :D
15:56 Wordsmith Jarvinen Is this the start of the mentor program, Carl?
15:56 Fidget (fidgetswidgets) Do not feed your cats eggplant.
15:56 Fidget (fidgetswidgets) They will leave seeds everywhere.
15:56 lonezenwitch I wear not to.
15:56 Fidget (fidgetswidgets) nods
15:56 Tasha (natashafetishqueen) has important RL business involving a bed, a duvet and 3 pillows... snoring might be involved
15:57 Batista Corleone (batistacorleone) some folks seem feel the need to stand in the center of interest, all the time ...
15:57 lonezenwitch if you wish to have a fun time learning, living, and loving In SL, do meet me in the waiting area in an hour.
15:57 Brace Coral A helpful Link for those wanting to change/create new Display Name: https://community.secondlife.com/t5/Getting-Started/How-do-I-change-my-display-name/qaq-p/2149235
15:57 lonezenwitch Oh, sorry.
15:57 Wordsmith Jarvinen Andrea?

15:59 Tasha (natashafetishqueen) always read profiles
15:59 Tasha (natashafetishqueen) 'hey, how are you?' is always a good opener
15:59 JamesFannon Do ther people keep your IMs?
16:00 JamesFannon Other
16:00 Tasha (natashafetishqueen) yes they can
16:00 JamesFannon Why would they want to do that?
16:00 lonezenwitch Dear Mr Corelone, I did not mean to offend.
16:00 Batista Corleone (batistacorleone) Is OK, witch - I forget very fast - ;o)
16:00 Tasha (natashafetishqueen) little used function is Calling Cards... can have someone's profile in Inventory without making friends, so easy to find them and chat
16:01 lonezenwitch I will be here for all, IM me, will be back soon. :D <3
16:01 Jorge Serapis As reference to previous conversations, I woud imagine. Or as eveidence in case the unfortunate need to file an AR report.
16:01 Fidget (fidgetswidgets) **cheers for Calling Cards**
16:01 JamesFannon Oh I see
16:01 Tasha (natashafetishqueen) the calling card is on the HUD if you right clcik on some one
16:01 Wordsmith Jarvinen And to read the TOS - terms of service and community standards docs for SL.
16:02 Brace Coral or.. CTRL + F brings up Find Menu where you can Search using the tabs: Places, People etc
16:02 JamesFannon Ok
16:02 Tasha (natashafetishqueen) giggles... if you have trouble sleeping
16:02 JamesFannon lol
16:02 Brace Coral type in Brace Coral on the People Tab and BAM! my profile appears :D
16:02 Tasha (natashafetishqueen) and can search for your interests
16:02 Tasha (natashafetishqueen) with 25000+ regions, there will be one for you
16:03 Brace Coral sometimes I play Keyword Roulette using the Find - Places tab
16:03 JamesFannon I am using firestorm now because Second Life viewer was showing me green people, why is that please?
16:03 Holly (hollydeni) this one is mine
16:03 Batista Corleone (batistacorleone) and type some dirty lil scripts , and Miss Corals profile pic appears right above her head
16:03 Brace Coral I type in say.. the word Zebra into the search field on Places tab
16:03 Wordsmith Jarvinen And, we often have staff inworld ready to help and answer questions here.
16:03 Brace Coral and go visit the places that show up lol
16:04 LabKat those are all good tips
16:04 Wordsmith Jarvinen Those good ole Zindra Zebras.
16:04 Wordsmith Jarvinen Or is that Z-bras
16:04 Tasha (natashafetishqueen) we had the green people a while back... it was an un-clean install of the viewer
16:04 Batista Corleone (batistacorleone) BEST tip, LayKat - treat people as you want to be treated - most folks here are extremely nice
16:04 Wordsmith Jarvinen (Zindra is the adult continent).
16:04 Carl Metropolitan Beware the Zindra Zebras. They don't have good clean fun in mind.
16:05 JamesFannon Oh
16:05 Larae (laraekell) Why is it better to use calling cards than to make friends?
16:05 Tasha (natashafetishqueen) if you update a viewer, always uninstall the old version first
16:05 JamesFannon Ok, thank you
16:05 Tasha (natashafetishqueen) Larae, it is an alternative... a stepping stone between non-friends and friends
16:05 Carl Metropolitan Larae, I have been hear nearly eleven years and have no clue what the diffrence between those are :)
16:05 Jorge Serapis When logging on, the viewer syncs your friends list with people on. The bigger the list, the longer it takes.
16:06 Fidget (fidgetswidgets) Larae -- some people don't want friends lists. They feel more comfortable with Calling Cards, which give you access to see their profile on demand.
16:06 Wordsmith Jarvinen Since this can go on and on, let's officially adjourn, and those who want to continue may.
16:06 Jorge Serapis A calling card is inventory, so it's already stored.
16:06 JamesFannon How much can your inventory hold, and if it is a lot, can it make you lag?
16:06 Tasha (natashafetishqueen) if you friend some one, you get their profile in your inventory and they are on your friends list... with calling cards you just pass on the profile for easy access
16:06 Brace Coral ty everyone! Great questions :)
16:06 Elfbiter Skysmith (elfbiter) is getting too tired to think
16:06 Jorge Serapis Word, quick question: any word on the CAT scripts? Tier is coming up.
16:06 Fidget (fidgetswidgets) Thank you Deans, Chancellor's & Vice Chancellors, and Assistant Deans ... I've learned a lot today.
16:07 Fidget (fidgetswidgets) This vegetable must now go nap.
16:07 Fidget (fidgetswidgets) waves and poofs
16:07 Wordsmith Jarvinen Give me a couple more days, Jorge.
