Before we delve into secrets…
• If you hook up with a crazy in SL, it is not our responsibility to help you deal with that. If it becomes a RL issue contact law enforcement.
• Trust no one. If you tell people your laundry they will air it for you.
• Secret submissions are anonymous. We don’t know if your crazy ex or your abuela submitted them.
• Make your secrets legible.
• Do not contact us just to threaten us, especially with e-lawyers. We’ve been doing this for 12+ years. You are not the first nor will you be the last.
• Lastly, if the material submitted here triggers you, please get help. If the materials submitted here make you suicidal please see the suicide hotline numbers posted. They are there to help.
Do you even read the words before you press the “Post Comment” button? I get you agree but you sound like an immature asshole. “Like OMG!! Have you seen here on Facebook???” then going on about how she self promotes. Now you add to your lame bullshit by reaching saying you meant something different from what you said. You are still dumb and your little bitch fest only reaffirmed that you have no actual valid input outside of agreeing with those that do. Must suck to not feel like one of the cool kids.
@ Hahahaha!! It’s some pretty pathetic reasons you are putting out there. Self promotion is a bad thing? Designers do it. DJs do it… Everyone does it. It is pretty much how anyone gets going in any field. If one does not promote themselves doing anything in rl or sl is sorta a waste of time. So whatever point your trying to make here doesn’t even make sense. If you do not promote yourself at least in the beginning now one else will. When referencing to what someone has done to themselves if your going to add some input make sure you actually have something valid to say.
If you read all the comments, and read what i wrote properly, I’m agreeing with a comment made earlier, that gives the opinion that she made the post on this website herself, My comment even starts, “I agree 100% she did this herself!”
That is the kind of self promotion i’m talking about. I don’t think every designer, DJ, blogger etc makes posts on websites pretending to be someone slagging them off to get attention.
Please read what has been written before getting on your high horse, its my opinion she did this herself, I’m agreeing with a previous comment.. and i’m then laughing about how she all on her FB talking about her new friends and likes and blog views. I get that maybe she didn’t and maybe she is just taking advantage of the situation but that’s not my opinion.
I believe she did this herself. Hope that made it simple enough for you to understand.
LOL I totallllly agree she did this herself, have you seen her on facebook, Sharing her blog page, and talking about all the new friends she has, Quotes: “Dont forget to like my blog page” and Thank you for the new likes (while sharing FB link) This was 100% self promotion! Everyone knows Haters make you famous – Too Funnnnnyyyyy
Its pretty common for a blogger to make statements like that.
Or maybe shes just taking advantage of the situation? I totally would too.
I know yoy all love to drama larma but i was simply trying to say what everyone knows that art is worth more after the artist id died. So crawl back under your rocks and stop trying to make something from innocent comments
No you werent. You took your grubby stubby fingers typing about that poster dying and tried to be clever and basically fucked it up as you were so mad. Read back your own comments over the weeks, you aren’t being that clever it is obvious who you are.
We get it, you are frustrated that you cant create or draw or make things that people love and would want to protect as their original works. It tells in your Posts how bitter you are at your own shortcomings.
But newsflash it doesn’t give you the right to pull the crap you do here all the time.
Don’t want to read our drivel, here is an idea get out of your morally bankrupt thought process and go do something nice to give yourself a break from your impotent anger.
and honey I have perfectly manicure beautiful lean fingers
Lol why wouldn’t i come here every week when you give me so much attention. look at all the energy you keep wasting idiotgo and you do it week after week I love it iyousilly boy
Lol why wouldn’t i come here every week when you give me so much attention. look at all the energy you keep wasting idiotgo and you do it week after week I love it is silly boy
I think Alice’s blog is great, her pictures are awesome, i respect her work, but she has a rotten attitude, she is rude uptight and aggressive You can see that just being her friend on facebook, I also have a feeling she did this herself for attention for her blog.. just an opinion.
She is a holier than thou bitch that because she can whip up some pixel pretty in Photoshop makes her the queen of blogging. She bashes new bloggers and is in general a fucking cunt. Let someone use the same damn windlight as her and “OMFG THEY COPYING ME”… She can act like she is Wonder Blogger the Thunder Cunt all she likes but don’t try to bullshit people with “She is a lovely person” because no she isn’t.. Designers don’t care about her shitty attitude so long as she does her work… Her personality ruins any creativity she has… Pretty pixels do not cover up her bullshit… js.
at least she doesnt fake dates on her old blog posts to pretend its new, didnt fake to lose an account and made a new on so she could have free shit like the lowlife whore who made this secret, get over it
SashaKitteh Wildrose.
So why don’t Alice & SashaKitteh get along? SPILL THE BEANS! 😛
i’m interested as well!
(to blahblah) lol someone actually did that? Who? Don’t keep us guessing!
(to everyone else) If you don’t like someones blog then don’t look at it. It’s simple, really.
If you say that, then you really do not know her
She would never do anything that could end her reputation and her blog,
and she is a lovely person and very dedicated to her blog
then before you speak it, try to be the best at what you do, she is the best
you’re jealous?
Said the fearless cunt behind a anonymous name. Thank you for the compliments about my attitude. Maybe the person who made this its you and it didnt work the way you wanted so you are trying hard to chage it now. Oh dear I dont need promotion and if you are in my facebook only to watch my life you know that quite well. Try again. 😉
I was rooting for you until this comment.
If you want people to see you in a certain light, have you tried not being so fucking defensive when people have a dissenting opinion?
Damn.. here I am defending you, and you respond with some super catty, immature, insulting stuff. I wish you had taken the high road, because I actually like your work a lot, and I find it hard to support someone who acts like that publicly. Example:Gogo
Oh well.
I don’t suppose there are any actual secrets on this site huh?
Unless it’s one big jerk-fest and the people that are making the secrets are “secret A holes”.
I have a secret! I have an an amazing sister who deals with so much crap online and offline.. I am surprised she has not gone insane. The secret is, she is stronger then everyone here.
Whoever made #5 sure sounds upset. Like, jealous 12 year old girl in high school upset. And you’re probably in your 40’s. Shit is sad.
Im the #5 .. Thank you all for the kind words.
Im sorry if the fact that designers like my work enough te support me bothers you but thats life. Thank you for thinking of me and watching my work. 🙂
♥ http://viciosl.com/
Besom hair… just, no. Her gifts are always jacked in some way – what an insult to give your customers/group members a gift of hair that wears like a receding hairline, lol! So wrong unless your avatar has an egg-shaped head and a great hair base.
Anyway, I’ll Segway into Truth here on that note and say, what ever he does with his pixel pean is OK by me as long as his products stay current and fabulous 🙂
Wonder if that sucker fish ever found a home for his dog…
#2 Seems reasonable, even if it were true (but it isn’t)..
#7 I hope the N21 management take care of this, because right now it’s a great event. That was a shitty move, I really hope recolor releases don’t become the N21 norm; the management and other designers deserve better from their peers.
For number 7, I think that designer is part of the Reign family or a friend of theirs. They wont kick her out. It’s all about who you know, who’s ass you kiss and butter up in Second Life.They get into their inner circle & are in most events. You can have the most shitty store as long as you are some “famous” designer or creators or bloggers friend, pal, sissy, twinnie, ma, pa, auntie, kiddo, boo or bae you are as good as gold selling your crappy wares at Second Life’s most “popular” events.
There is no actual fucking that occurs in sl unless you are so far removed from reality that you believe your AV and its pixel movements are real, just sayin.
The concept really does seem more like long distance team masturbation. At best.
LOL I couldn’t have but it better myself
#5 – Quite amazing how Truth is always so busy fucking all the girls but also makes a bunch of hairs every week! He must be a super hero !
Also have seen bloggers who are way more boring. She has clean pics and interesting looks.
Not to mention I am pretty sure Truth has a lady in RL who has kids or something. He has so much money, I doubt he is looking for pixel vag in SL these days.
It’s too funny that any female blogger who gets into a “good” blogger group run by a male is “pixeling” them. Alice is an awesome blogger, she has way more originality than most boring vanilla bloggers. IDK why anyone is hating on her. Sad.
Strikes me as kind of latent self hatred, I mean ladies do like to hate on other ladies for succeeding, look at all the hate for popular women in culture.
Doesn’t surprise me to see it in SL too.
Truth is hot IRL, and easily one of the most successful designers in SL. Most girls in SL are cheating on their RL husbands with some fat 22 year old kid living with his parents/on welfare. Most would fuck him for nothing, let alone a sponsorship. Also, #5’s blog quality is very good, and she has an insane amount of followers. I don’t know her personally but you would be pretty stupid to not want your items to be blogged by her.
who the hell is #5.. initials???
her name is Alice, and personally I love her work. She uses the same photoshop styling in every picture, as most bloggers do, but she actually shows you more than just this weeks titties/tattoos.
OMG #5 just makes me sad!! I fucking love her blog. 🙁 I just found out about this site today and I really wish I hadn’t. Why are you guys so hateful?
Alice is an amazing blogger… but more importantly she is a wonderful person. She comes to the aid of her friends. She supports other bloggers and isn’t stuck up about it. She shares helpful information to ALL events not just the ones she is sponsored by. I’m appalled that this website allows people to talk bologna and spread insidious rumors about someone they don’t even know. I’m not even a close personal friend of hers but all of these things I have seen her do for myself. I can only imagine what lengths she goes to for her close friends. Whoever posted that heinous rumor, I’m not sure what happened in your life to make you so hateful but please reconsider those things and whether or not you actually know them to be true or are just trying to tarnish someones reputation. 🙁
It is a hateful place and that’s why we come here, we love to hate. Every single person who comes here every week is here for one reason, the drama and to be catty or to call someone out, even the fake pollyanna types have their agenda. Anyone who says otherwise is a flat out liar. Embrace it, bitching and being catty is an awesome therapeutic release.
Oh welcome. I think every hit we get is someone who either ‘doesn’t look at this site’ or ‘just found out about it’. 🙂
This website is essentially just a public “burn book” for secondlife. Secrets don’t get posted, just catty insults. I’ve watched the site owners talk about it, and they’re honestly a bit delusional about the whole concept, with ideals such as, “don’t like the content? maybe you should add your own!” as if that is how it works. Then again, here we all are, reading this bullshit.
That is how it works. The readers submit. If you want to see secrets, be the change you wish to see. The readers submit what they want to read. If you don’t like it, we aren’t forcing you to come read this bullshit.
>If you don’t like it, we aren’t forcing you to come read this bullshit.
Thanks for reiterating what I said.
Also, just because we come to see the drama, doesn’t mean we have any interest in taking part. We’re merely stating our opinion on what we’ve seen here. And it wasn’t any secrets.
@Meh -you do understand that by commenting you ARE taking part, right?
Complaining w/o intent to contribute to change means you don’t actually want things to change. Therefore you must enjoy the bullshit as it is.
Thanks for your continued support.
I’m not really complaining, we’re all here for the same reason. Just sayin’, it ain’t really about secrets.
You’re welcome.
regarding #2, not true. my theme (pretty in punk) was picked for the april round and i am not a designer nor a blogger for c88 nor affiliated at all with the event in any way other than a shopper. i just submitted the theme and it was picked.
I’ve said it once and I’ll say it again there is no crime in taking inspiration from real life or anywhere. Even if its copied no 1 really cares so please get over it. designers make what they like copied from real life or inspired.
Say it as many times as you wish, you’re only reiterating your grotesque ignorance. It’s clear you’ve never created anything worthwhile, or you would understand. As for “there’s no crime in copying,” obviously you’re not read up on intellectual property laws either. Yes, they do extend into SL. Educate yourself, maybe?
I am educated on the matter thanks very much. I know you can not copyright clothing, you can not copy right furniture or a house. So perhaps it is YOU who needs to be further educated. I never said it was moral, I simply said it isn’t a crime. Check you facts because you are wrong and I am right.
While you can’t copyright ‘fashion’, due to its utilitarian nature, wouldn’t Second Life be a completely different issue?
Second Life is basically streaming artwork. If you can copyright drawings of fashion, which I believe you can, wouldn’t that extend into Second Life? Basically none of what’s created there is utilitarian or even tangible as a useful item. It’s visual artwork.
I think that is what Elvire was getting at. Herman Miller cleverly made their own 3d models of their trademarked products and you can copyright 3d models.
Ignore Whatever/Elle Cresendro above she is the resident crazy who got caught infringing copyright here a few weeks back so hopefully the sane commentary away from her threats and general strangeness can still be read on this site.
ignoreidiotgo she thinks everyone is el crescendo she is obsessed with her
Poor attempt at deflection, Indigo obsessed? No, he just calls your ass out every week because you keep pulling the same behavior on here.
Delusion: you think this is attention
Reality: you are just creating an online trail that speaks volumes to your rage, repressed aggression, hated and envy. You probably think we are just like you, we are not and we are not your enablers.
LMAO
Hate to give you the bad news “Miss I clearly don’t have the intellect to be a real lawyer”. There are aspects where you CAN garner protection (e.g. fabric design, trademark etc). I hear this plea from many legally ignorant people (or more like it those who probably steal shit themselves so find a way to justify their lazy ass attitude). You are probably also dumb enough to say it’s fair use – ITS ON GOOGLE. (That’s another favorite of mine to see the talentless cry when they get caught).
Herman Miller would wipe the floor with you, if they so felt the need. Why don’t you test them on trademark, report back to us in a few months?
And ditto on above, it’s about a Tattoo which is on the same level as taking a google image importing it, messing with the colors a bit and say whoa I am an artist because it fits to part of the avatar body. It’s lazy, shitty ethics and steals from original artists (most of who are also chasing every penny to live).
Anyway back to steal all the copyrightz school for you “whatever”…. try harder next time please.
Elrider I get it now you wanted to be a lawyer but you weren’t smart enough so you ended up a struggling artist and struggling means you’ll probably not very good at that either. So you must come here and it tech others into linked to make you feel better about your own misery and miss fortune. Don’t worry I here wants you to die your art is with a whole lot more this hope for you yet
Um really? Translator or not you know very well you won’t leave the house key alone follow through on a ridiculous threat. Just don’t say shit like this again.
@ Whatever – You can’t even spell my posting name correctly, and then you write what amounts to a psychotic rant? Of course it was the translator!!! (Wait, yes I saw it, yes definitely, a pig flying outside my window!)
You accuse the posters here of “drivel” and other deflecting statements because week after week you come on here to promote infringement of others rights.
I really also hate to burst another of your ill-formed thoughts based on clearly a lack of moral fortitude and the fact you protection your lack of ethics onto others, but I am not a starving artist or lawyer. I just believe in people being rewarded and compensated fairly for their original creative endeavors. Call me silly, or perhaps call me an ethical consumer (unlike you).
What will you post next? What possible insult in your internet rage will you think up? Are you going to wish me more e-death?
Kisses!
Yes but elvira you still knew i was addressing you, so what does the speling matter, such a silly thing worry about. thank you all for you long winded posts, Ilove that you are spending so much time on me and that Ihave inspired and inpasioned you, warms my heart
Sorry that got messed on my translator and came out very wrong
Did you seriously just post a death threat and then lol blame your emotional post on translator. Strange for a Kiwi hahahah
Such an obvious response from you idiotgo wouldn’t have expected anything less. Always with the drama larma
My translator does recognise the word “cos” ok, but some reason it doesn’t regocnise you it keeps calling you idiotgo, sorry bout that
Ilove how you have made me the resident troll, you’re making me famous honey
Signing off as Trollgate
Also to prove why it’s obvious you are lying “Whatever”.
No translator generates the word “cos”, it’s a slang term and not mapped to any language terms if you use the main ones like Google.
Above you wrote:
whatever says
April 26, 2015 at 9:30 pm
There you go can you all get over the whole theme thing now, cos no one gives a shit
So Whatever thinks we write drivel, doesn’t bother (yeah right) to read the secret posted, but yet takes the time to post here ALL the time about copying stuff in that weird passive aggressive manner.
Also the words she wrote about the girl above are way off the chart in crazy. It is actually a bit scary to see somebody show the full on crazy here, guess it escaped the dark box it is normally locked in. Jesus.
Whatever I would be interested to hear what you meant to say when you typed “die” I can’t see how the hell you can walk that back.
yes I missed the tattoo point because I wasnt reading all the drivel that you people type on here. Every week someone is bitching about someone who has copied something from real life and usually it’s something pretty damn trivial.and low blow with the stealing comment I’ve never stolen anything in my life I support if SL designers so shove it it’s exactly as someone was saying the other day if you don’t agree you must be a thief
lol well here’s an idea…if you aren’t capable of keeping up and on topic, stay quiet? I mean seriously, if your comment doesn’t apply to the conversation…it’s no better than anything else you deem “drivel.” The “secret” was quite obviously about a tattoo, Miss “I’m right and you’re wrong.” …absolutely laughable.
We were talking about the tattoo in question were we not? That art drawn by an actual artist? I don’t know where you got houses, furniture, or clothes. I’ve been discussing the usage of art. Lol you are right about some things but…as for on topic? Not quite…
There you go can you all get over the whole theme thing now, cos no one gives a shit
For #7, does it really matter? I don’t think I’ve seen few more than two or three originally drawn tattoos ever.
Most tattoos are taken from random internet websites . I’m sorry but who gives a shit really? I guess I may be biased because I own a few of them but if you attack them you might as well attack the hundreds of others while at it.
Point being there’s much worse shit out there to post about. How about using your time to go bust the pedos hitting on child avatars or something worthwhile.
“everyone does it, it must be ok so shut up.”
Please don’t be that person, lol.
I do agree that sl people won’t stop doing it, but please do not stand there and support it/justify it simply bc everyone does it. That’s pretty weak-minded. Oh, and the original artist might give a shit…just sayin 🙂
I think the bigger issue, aside from the obvious, is that the designer used the same art at two events by merely modifying the opacity. I’m not going to inspect the two with a magnifying glass, nor I don’t care if you own all of their tattoos and have tea with them on Sundays…if that’s the case, that’s a seriously lazy designer. Im surprised the event coordinator permitted it.
Just wondering.. do you or, do you not own a tattoo in second life?
Do you have a certificate of authenticity that it is an original design, not to be found anywhere on the web or in second life?
I really doubt that you do not own a tattoo or, skin or, hair or, piece of clothing that was not inspired by either a real life tattoo (or like)…
Everything in second life is inspired by rl.
That is the point of second life.. to be able to come and create either things in your mind or, things that grabbed your attention in rl and gave you the inspiration to create it in second life.
Stop condemning people that actually try to recreate rl ideas and maybe get off your ass and create something “original” yourself.
If you can not do that.. stop bitching.
Buy the items that you like and leave the rest of us to support the imaginative creators of our choosing.
Because ripping an image off the internet and changing up the opacity is so imaginative. Do you even believe this stuff, or are you just sucking up to some talentless ‘friend’ who gives you free shit for defending them?
lolol it’s the “it benefits me so it’s ok” mentality. Disregarding that the sl “designer” is profiting off of someone else’s hard work bc “omg I neeeed that cute tattoo for my avi!” -gag-
There’s a difference between being inspired by something (i.e. you see a cute shirt with daisies on it, so you go buy the rights to a daisy design, and then create a similar, inspired daisy shirt in SL) and blatant copying/recreating (i.e. saving the picture of the daisy shirt and using that image to create a daisy shirt in SL).
I admire those creators in SL who recognize and respect the hard work RL designers put into their craft and appropriately create *inspired* designs in SL as to not lazily profit off of the backs of others.
And no, I actually don’t own a tattoo in SL. It’s just not my style. Well, maybe on my first couple days in SL from freebie island but they’re long gone thank God lol. But anyway, if it were my style, you still wouldn’t find me actually defending such acts as ripping images off google for profit. That’s like saying “because it benefits me, I think it’s okay and I support it even though it is technically wrong.” Speaks volumes of your character.
Fine, let’s do it your way then.
Do you own a skin?
Most second life skins are inspired by one another.
Most clothing, skins, hair.. whatever.
Do you know that they do not own the rights to something?
Stop being silly and writing hate messages to people on here and maybe list a secret you have not admitted to yourself..
You are a bully.
I don’t think you know what bullying is.
Just because you disagree or don’t like what someone says, does not equal bullying.
Get a god damn grip and be an adult, only children cry about bullying when someone disagrees with their flawed logic.
If you stick to one name with that email address you will find your comments won’t be moderated. Thanks 🙂
It’s understandable that a designer takes “inspiration” from rl influences but this looks like a direct cut and paste. I also agree with Uhhh, the bigger issue is the original was one from the limited project which isn’t supposed to be resold again by the designer. Just fading the colors out is a real lazy way to reuse a product and is really slapping the customers of those that purchased the limited quantity ones in the face in my opinion.
@#6: Newsflash: Be somebody who takes pride in spelling.
A petty secret deserves a petty response.
I could be wrong but I’m pretty sure that spelling “error” is a play on words and using the targeted brand name.
It wasn’t a spelling error. She has a brand called “Besom”.
“news* flash” was the spelling error, is what they meant…I think.
Tbh, when I see sloppy mistakes like that in an ad, it makes me wonder what kind of sloppy mistakes are in the actual product. Regardless of their spelling error, the point is valid and hardly petty. Some designers just don’t have enough pride in their work to do it, or pay to have it done correctly. They’re squandering some serious talent, if you ask me.
So regarding #2. Hate to say it but it seems legit about only designers choosing themes. After all, they are the ones who have to make it. That’s just my two cents. Also #3 yup no 1 curr. Not even me. See I have this thing called a job. So that’s why I don’t actively seek advertising nor do I care. Thanks for posting.
If you’re only going to pick your designer’s themes, only let the designers submit themes. Keeping up an illusion that non-designers might have their themes picked is sucky.
Oh, and maybe enforce the theme instead of letting some people get away with putting out the exact same see-through metallic shit each month regardless of what they’re supposed to be making?
Maybe they have yet to find a decent non designer submitted theme? CRAZY I know that they are actually picky about the presentation of their product.
The designers vote each month on the submitted themes. If your theme isn’t being picked it may be off season, not showing enough of the different types of content or is just not as nice as other themes.
Wow people can be so mean over small, trivial things. Just sayin’.
The SlFairLovers are complete bullshit and frauds. They were having a kid fair right next to that badly set up gangster fair. It was puktastic. We all picked our shit up and left. Some of us got refunds. These bitches for all the money they made provided the shittiest event set up ever.
Can we try to submit some actual secrets and not just anonymous malicious and thinly-veiled swipes at people?
….REALLY @7….
Step 1: Someone is clearly green with envy and doesn’t even know what they are talking about
Step 2: Most tattoos are made that way pal NEWSFLASH but people find images, edit it, create… its called being a creator in sl when it comes to tattoos.
Step 3: Make sure you know all your FACTS before looking like an idiot
Step 4: You mad bro?
Step 5: Someone has serious envy issues with this whole thing…
We can start by clicking that upload link at the top of the page. Look forward to seeing your “actual secret”. 🙂
