Welcome to this week's Deans' Q&A |
| 15:06 |
Hot Lil' Nerd (erikanilson) |
But why look bad when it is so easy to look good? It seems like they almost take pride in having a 2005 look. |
| 15:06 |
Wordsmith Jarvinen |
Thank you all for coming. |
| 15:07 |
Gary Calvert II (soonergary86) |
lol |
| 15:07 |
leafpelt21 |
thank you all for holding this Q&A |
| 15:07 |
Wordsmith Jarvinen |
Unless Carl comes with something to report on this is likely to be mostly open questions. |
| 15:08 |
Carl Metropolitan |
People like what they like. If someone doesn't want to go the latest and greatest, it's just personalpreference |
| 15:08 |
Carl Metropolitan |
No not really. |
| 15:08 |
Wordsmith Jarvinen |
Phrynne says she doesn't have any report this week and I just got back from travel a few hours ago. |
| 15:09 |
Wordsmith Jarvinen |
So, any announcements? |
| 15:09 |
Wordsmith Jarvinen |
Andrea? |
| 15:10 |
Andrea Jones (andreajonesms) |
Jan is having a valentines day dance on tuesday, so I've moved the blues valentines day event to thursday night |
| 15:10 |
Badass Fae (larkylouz) |
Andrea has been working doggedly. I can attest to that! |
| 15:10 |
Carl Metropolitan |
I got paid for two weeks in a row in RL, so I'm less insanely stressed. |
| 15:10 |
Andrea Jones (andreajonesms) |
I'll post notices for both events in the union group |
| 15:10 |
Gary Calvert II (soonergary86) |
Nice. |
| 15:10 |
Andrea Jones (andreajonesms) |
the cou ball is still set for the 21st |
| 15:11 |
Andrea Jones (andreajonesms) |

| 15:11 |
Andrea Jones (andreajonesms) |
*now |
| 15:11 |
Andrea Jones (andreajonesms) |
DJ Poppy will be our Dj and is donating her tips |
| 15:12 |
Carl Metropolitan |
We should auction off my SL virginity. It's been ten years, I'm sure it has grown back :) |
| 15:12 |
Badass Fae (larkylouz) |
lol |
| 15:12 |
Wordsmith Jarvinen |
So several upcoming social events. And it's the 21st that's the fund-raiser |

| 15:13 |
Wordsmith Jarvinen |
Which is different than, if all you see is Skye. |
| 15:14 |
Agatha Macbeth |
Oh my |
| 15:14 |
Carl Metropolitan |
That is from a NCI fundraising auction in 2007 |
| 15:14 |
Gronk Seriman |
HA! |
| 15:14 |
Gary Calvert II (soonergary86) |
okay, lol. |
| 15:14 |
Carl Metropolitan |
I think it went for 1400L |
| 15:15 |
Gronk Seriman |
Wow! |
| 15:16 |
Wordsmith Jarvinen |
It does show the range of possible donations. ;) |
| 15:16 |
Wordsmith Jarvinen |
Okay, open for questions in general. |
| 15:16 |
Oxbridge Donation Coin R1 (Alternate Lecture Hall) |
Holly Gaavin (hollydeni) gave a generous donation to help support classes and tutorials at Caledon Oxbridge Gateway. |
| 15:17 |
Carl Metropolitan |
It was a step up from the copy of Microsoft Vista we auctioned off the next year. Back when Microsoft has a presence in SL. |
| 15:17 |
Carl Metropolitan |
Around the time Vista was the hot new thing. |
| 15:17 |
Wordsmith Jarvinen |
Welcome Kara, of the bright smile. |
| 15:18 |
Kara2016 |
Smiles brightly. |
| 15:18 |
Agatha Macbeth |
Vista was ever hot? Wow |
| 15:18 |
Gary Calvert II (soonergary86) |
For like 2 months, lol. |
| 15:18 |
Lyn Navarita |
Did the winning bidder ask for their L$ back? |
| 15:18 |
Oxbridge Donation Coin R1 (Alternate Lecture Hall) |
Andrea Jones (andreajonesms) gave a generous donation to help support classes and tutorials at Caledon Oxbridge Gateway. |
| 15:18 |
Carl Metropolitan |
No, they were happy with it. They mostly bought it for a second computer. |
| 15:18 |
Agatha Macbeth |
Maybe that's why lots of people were still using XP in 2012 |
| 15:19 |
Wordsmith Jarvinen |
ty Andrea (bows) |
| 15:19 |
Oxbridge Donation Coin R1 (Alternate Lecture Hall) |
Kara2016 gave a generous donation to help support classes and tutorials at Caledon Oxbridge Gateway. |
| 15:19 |
Wordsmith Jarvinen |
and also Holly. |
| 15:19 |
Wordsmith Jarvinen |
and Kara (bows to both) |
| 15:19 |
Gronk Seriman |
OMG! Dat coin is on fiahhhh! |
| 15:19 |
leafpelt21 |
i am considering renting land here, apart form whats written in the convent, is there anything expected of me as a renter? as un writen "general scene?" |
| 15:20 |
Carl Metropolitan |
Pay on time, so Desmond does not get stressed. |
| 15:20 |
Wordsmith Jarvinen |
Yes, the coin becomes hawt when it gets attention. |
| 15:20 |
Carl Metropolitan |
Be nice to your neighbors |
| 15:20 |
Carl Metropolitan |
Pretty much all covered by the covenant. |
| 15:20 |
Holly Gaavin (hollydeni) |
whimsical victorian steampunk |
| 15:20 |
Phrynne |
Keep your trees and buildings inside the boundaries of your land |
| 15:20 |
leafpelt21 |
ahh okay |
| 15:21 |
Carl Metropolitan |
Unless you get permission, of course. |
| 15:21 |
Wordsmith Jarvinen |
Only release dangerous turkeys within reason. |
| 15:21 |
Kara2016 |
and watch out for low flying dragons. |
| 15:21 |
Andrea Jones (andreajonesms) |
be receptive to comments from neighboors and try to ork it out before running to desmond |
| 15:21 |
Carl Metropolitan |
and Kraken |
| 15:21 |
Holly Gaavin (hollydeni) |
its pretty easy |
| 15:21 |
Phrynne |
Don't set a general ban. Banlines are forbidden. |
| 15:21 |
Andrea Jones (andreajonesms) |
but if you need to , do |
| 15:21 |
Phrynne |
This means don't set the land just for a specific group, keeping all others out. |
| 15:21 |
leafpelt21 |
ya i remember that part |
| 15:21 |
Phrynne |
You can ban individuals for misdeeds, but not groups. |
| 15:22 |
Carl Metropolitan |
No security orbs. |
| 15:22 |
leafpelt21 |
whats that? |
| 15:22 |
Andrea Jones (andreajonesms) |
be kind to new users, they don't get the private land thing right off. |
| 15:22 |
Carl Metropolitan |
Keep stuff below 512 meters PG. |
| 15:22 |
Wordsmith Jarvinen |
And not just for cliques or being peevish (banning individuals). Des absolutely frowns on that kind of misbehavior. |
| 15:22 |
leafpelt21 |
ahh |
| 15:22 |
Andrea Jones (andreajonesms) |
reall? below 512? |
| 15:23 |
Oxbridge Donation Coin R1 (Alternate Lecture Hall) |
Agatha Macbeth gave a generous donation to help support classes and tutorials at Caledon Oxbridge Gateway. |
| 15:23 |
leafpelt21 |
dont worry im very open to people |
| 15:23 |
Phrynne |
Yes, below 512 |
| 15:23 |
Holly Gaavin (hollydeni) |
ooopsie |
| 15:23 |
Gary Calvert II (soonergary86) |
512 meters should be plenty tall enough for most things. |
| 15:23 |
Wordsmith Jarvinen |
Well, since one can't enforce privacy below 512m. |
| 15:23 |
Carl Metropolitan |
I'm talking about skyboxes |
| 15:23 |
Phrynne |
Skyboxes can go as high as 4000meters |
| 15:24 |
leafpelt21 |
but if your like this one person who lassoed me and dragged me through a shopping mall .... i will fully consider banning them fomr the land |
| 15:24 |
Gary Calvert II (soonergary86) |
Right. |
| 15:24 |
Wordsmith Jarvinen |
But something like a painting with nudity in a moderate region isn't going to raise eyebrows. |
| 15:24 |
Carl Metropolitan |
Thank you Agatha |
| 15:24 |
Agatha Macbeth |
YW |
| 15:24 |
Carl Metropolitan |
but it will in a G region. Fortunately, it think this is the only G region in Caledon |
| 15:24 |
Wordsmith Jarvinen |
Most regions in Caledon are moderate rated. |
| 15:25 |
leafpelt21 |
ahh no distasteful art dont worry |
| 15:25 |
Wordsmith Jarvinen |
This isn't Carl, but Oxbridge is. |
| 15:26 |

| 15:26 |

| 15:26 |
Carl Metropolitan |

leafpelt21 |

| 15:28 |
Carl Metropolitan |
If you need help finding an open parcel ask in ISC chat. |
| 15:28 |
Carl Metropolitan |
Someone will be living near one. |
| 15:28 |
Carl Metropolitan |

leafpelt21 |

| 15:30 |
Gary Calvert II (soonergary86) |
Yes, they are. |
| 15:30 |
Wordsmith Jarvinen |
Although, they've shifted from having everything out on a sim, to a skybox with vendors and temp-rezzed examples (occurred in December). |
| 15:30 |
Holly Gaavin (hollydeni) |

| 15:31 |
Kara2016 |

| 15:31 |
Menta Black (mentadent) |
Is there a llandmark, somewhere? |
| 15:31 |
Carl Metropolitan |
Also, for houses, consider Barnesworth Anubis, LAQ, and Trompe Loeil. All three have some nice victorian-ish homes |
| 15:31 |
Badass Fae (larkylouz) |
That's a really nifty avi, Leafpelt |
| 15:32 |

We also gave away a small Victorian cottage in the Advent Calendar -- and it is in a box in the campus Railroad Station, on the right, a larger blue box. |

| 15:33 |
Kara2016 |
I will keep my cottage in my inventory..until I find bigger land..right now i like where i am at. |
| 15:33 |
Wordsmith Jarvinen |
Caledon is more concerned with how people act than how they look. |
| 15:33 |
leafpelt21 |
ahh :) |
| 15:34 |

Mesh standard sizing you should be able to Google, Bing, or Duck up, which will also return hits from SL Universe forums. |

That's roughly $10USD to be a patron. |

I was thinking a Hall of Patrons would be nice recognition. But I'm not sure all Patrons would want that. |
| 15:53 |
Carl Metropolitan |
Some would not. |
| 15:53 |
Carl Metropolitan |
But it is a nice idea. |
| 15:53 |
Carl Metropolitan |
I need to review the list and see who would like to be listed. |
| 15:55 |
Andrea Jones (andreajonesms) |
any plans for the portrait places on the walls around us? |
| 15:55 |
Orange Planer |
If they don't want to be named, maybe we could put their favorite picture on the wall, or something. |
| 15:55 |
Caissa McCarey (lorelai.mccarey) |
or a message, perhaps an 'in honor of' or 'in memory of' option? |
| 15:55 |
Orange Planer |
Perhaps instead of calling it "The Hall of Patrons" we could try "The Hall of Really Nice People Who Don't Want To Be Named" |
| 15:56 |
Badass Fae (larkylouz) |

Medical Definition of gork. medical slang usually disparaging : a terminal patient whose brain is nonfunctional and the rest of whose body can be kept functioning only by the extensive use of mechanical devices and nutrient solutions. |
