I'm bored. At least I can be a guy or a girl on SL. Although it seems rather... empty...  

[Darkened Angel]

I'll be on later tonight, probably sitting around the lab again.

Here's what Cracked.com has to say about SL

Cracked.com

What it is
A free MMORPG that has no point whatsoever.

Excerpt that Sums Up the Community In A Nutshell

Second Life promotes creativity in its users by encouraging them to build their own items using an in-game programming language, to start businesses by buying land and developing properties on it, to work collaboratively with other players to thrive.

Sounds good in theory, but for some reason the reality of it usually involves a lot more virtual strip clubs, S&M parlors, and casinos. Oh - and a lot more furries.

Why It Makes Us Uncomfortable
Linden Labs, the company that makes Second Life, likes to brag about its membership numbers. In reality, the actual number of active players is always much, much lower than the sum total of all registered users. That means that people create an account, build a house for their in-game avatar to masturbate in, and then they stop playing and never come back. What does that mean for you, the curious, newbie player? It means that walking around Second Life is like walking around in some weird, virtual post-apocalyptic zombie movie, only instead of encountering zombies, you occasionally stumble across some dude dressed up like a mechanical teddy bear having sex with a giant cat.

X-Play's review of SL was based off information that said the average user spent 12 minutes online per month.

I alone would make that at least 15. Sheesh. FYI, that info wasn't correct. They included like the total account number.

On average, there's 20k-40k people on at any given time. SL is HUGE though, so some places people are spread out, and some places are stuffed.

Well here's the entire article that the excerpt came from if you want to read it.

where's dee lab?  

[Darkened Angel]

Aracar, look for the hand clutching the world. Can't miss it. ( Use one of the warps to reach the lab itself, it's up 700 meters in the sky. )  

[Darkened Angel]

I tell everyone at the lab to expect someone dropping by in a minute or so, and you're nowhere to be found.

I guess I'll just blow up stuff without you being here for the fun now.  

[Nelowulf]
