#9 32 land impact for something that looks like a giant scrotum…. WHAT?
It doesn’t even have a top on it! It’s see through!
#6 L’Etre and Stray Dog: Really whoever posted that is a moron. You don’t have to look closely, CLEARLY two different skins. Gac is doing an amazing job at skins, stop trying to tear him down for a MISTAKE his friend made. Get your facts right before posting.
#8 doesn’t anyone realize these are guys!!! I Personally I don’t think any sane woman would have an avatar like this, but I do know a fraternity at a certain college that plays Lay and Slay. They go around screwing as many as they can while all their frat brothers watch it all together.
lol at what point do they look at each other and the banter turns from, “Oh, we’re getting one over on that person” to “Look at all the virtual dick we take”?
@The arcade stuff was a bit disappointing this round and could understand about people being let down but don’t buy it if you don’t like it, point blank. @the busty big avi’s, some of my shapes are a bit full figured and busty too but not too extreme, but agree that it is sl and you don’t have to look at them, they aren’t bothering anyone sl is a place for each person to individually express themselves and shouldn’t be judged but that’s your salty opinion. @The fin domme wannabes, yes lol it’s a shame because people just slap shit in their profile and call themselves a fin domme either desperate for money or just to make themselves stand out when a real fin domme does it for the kink and power and doesn’t really need the money at all they do it because they can and know how to be a fin domme. @Pandora mental case, within one week I’ve heard more than 3 people have been harassed by this infamous nut job, I’ve also rubbed elbows with her too and its easy to just block and report and keep your private or personal matters to yourself. You keep feeding her fuel for her fire when you interact and lash back at her. One day it will get stale to her and she will run out of people to drive nuts. @David copper skin shit scandal, this subject has been dragged through and through and is being investigated etc, don’t know much about entire story but the story scandal shit it’s getting tired and boring seeing continuous posts and then other designers claiming to be ripped off by him etc, are your claims valid or supported? Researched and backed up because those pics do have minor similarities and shit… Read more »
Arcade: Have you guys seen the house from tarte and scarlet creative? nothing more to say.
Oh and Charlotte added a “Gacha pls read” pick: “MISSING ARCADE ITEMS. I will only refund for max of two plays no exceptions…” if you play more than 2 times and pay her your money, sorry dude, you only will get 2 refunds.
And I am waiting since 12 Days on my refunds. She doesnt even reply any of my nc’s.
Lmaooo yeah when I read that I didn’t even send her my notecard … on the main arcade sim I played the gacha 54 times and didn’t received stuff 5 times which I am pretty sure was the rare house … so in the future I simply won’t play her gacha anymore and rather buy from a yardsale
Can you really blame her for not wanting to refund/give extra for more than two? How many people must have told her they didn’t receive 4 or 5 or 10 or more, and she has no way of knowing whether it’s true or not?
I realize it’s the people who play the most who are hurt by this the most, and I’m sure that’s why she’s willing to refund at all, but she can’t just be expected to take everyone’s word for it when some people probably abuse that.

hello there and thank you for your info – I’ve certainly picked up something new
from right here. I did however expertise a few technical
points using this site, since I experienced to
reload the site a lot of times previous to I could get it to load properly.
I had been wondering if your web host is OK? Not that I’m complaining, but sluggish loading instances times will often affect your placement in google
and could damage your high quality score if advertising and marketing with Adwords.
Well I am adding this RSS to my email and could look
out for much more of your respective interesting content.
Make sure you update this again soon.
@ L’etre and Stray dog secret
That’s a bit of a stretch, they are probably not the same person but its undeniable that they were and continue to be close friends and at least in one of those photo comparisons, you can see the top area of the butt is legit the same with other stuff on top of it. Both are using textures that does not belong to them and are being illegaly used in order to make profit. Both of those textures looks like The Shops texture after sneezing some tint on top of them.
@Yeah – I agree, there are way too many similarities for this to pass. I won’t go so far as to accuse them of being the same person but they both DEFINITELY either used the same source images, or they bought their template from the same place.
Yes all skins have these details but for them to be drawn, placed, highlighted and shaded in the EXACT same way? Highly unlikely.
As someone who creates textures, I notice these things. I also understand how people who *don’t* work with textures might miss how similar the details are. But the shape and shading on the lips, down to the imperfect/uneven arches of the butt crack that just to happens to be on the Right side of BOTH skins, to what you even mentioned about the bottom of the spine shading above the butt, they’re identical.
So either there’s some “dirty work” involved (As David likes to refer to), or Gac studied and duplicated david’s skins to the smallest of details. Not sure which is better tbh.
I’m with Divos on this. I wear the Stray Dog skin and until someone files a DMCA you can stop with the rumor and rhetoric.
For those that don’t know what a DMCA is, educate yourselves:
https://www.copyright.gov/legislation/dmca.pdf
If any of it were true, and the complainant filed one, your textures on your mesh would suddenly disappear. Any creator knows this. It’s just gone from your inventory folks. Thanks to Gac for creating some great skins. Keep up the amazing work.
Are they allowed to use the texture in the Pinterest link Divos mentioned ) for their skins?
I find it quite unfair to take the texture from another 3D artist work… however if they asked for the permission or if it is free-to-use then no problem.
If you Google “Men Back Reference”, it’s really quite easy to see the back references Gac uses:
Moreover, someone doesn’t even have to search for five minutes to use Google and find the texture he utilized as a reference for the butt areas:
This secret was clearly not posted by someone who is familiar with texture creation. If so, then they would not have even bothered because they would clearly see the L’Etre and Stray Dog skins are not the same.
Rather, this is a secret posted by someone with too much time on their hands and interested in creating drama when there is none present. Gac is one of the most talented, original creators in Second Life and shame on you for trying to slander a store that is dedicated to bringing amazing skins to the people of SL.
I would strongly encourage this person to find a hobby that will be more lucrative than spreading this trash.
#7 Don’t give her any credit, she’s probably getting off right now being featured on this page as she thrives to be an (e-)bitch
She gets her freak on with everything that walks and talks.
Lourdes, any idea if “Sparkles” and “Sumrandom” are the same person? Kinda odd they’re posting similar stuff at the same timestamp >.>
Noticing that there’s two comments posted with the same time, attacking the same person isn’t paranoia. It’s literally pointing out how oblivious you are that people will notice that it’s likely the same person trying to make it look like multiple people hate whoever it is you’re trying to attack.
Paranoia would be more along the lines of how you instantly assumed I was the person you’re trying to attack, simply because I pointed out how you’re likely using multiple aliases to pretend to be multiple people.
Congratulations on the online stuff making you paranoid 😉 Now if you’d place bets on me and the other person being the same person..
Quite frankly, I don’t know who Pandora is. As I said below, the secret is a piece of shit because no one can read it. It’s an eyesore.
I comment here weekly. I don’t know the victim of your obsession, but all you’re doing by posting multiple comments under different aliases is causing me to garner some sympathy for that girl.
And no, it’s not “luck” that the two comments are a minute apart saying similar things. Coincidences like that don’t happen on this site, hun. I understand you’re supposedly “new” here, but those of us who read this every week can spot the bullshit 😉
I wouldn’t know cause I don’t post here. Call it pure “luck” that the timing is similar. Regardless though, are you Pandora or how are related to her unless she’s promised you her vag 😀
The mod approving the message doesn’t alter the original timestamp. Nice try, though.
Unless you’re saying that your comments are special and changes that when it hasn’t done it for anyone else? ?
Ever considered it being accidental or the fact that the mod needs to approve the message? Regardless, what does it mean to you unless you’re Pandora herself, cause I don’t know anybody else to give a damn about her. 😉
#7. I actually have dealt with this girl and she’s a real fucken nut job (I don’t want to get into it). I told her to fix her ways or you will keep getting shit on. I guess she never listened to me. Sad.
1. The Arcade this round was total shit with the 5% lag fest of the split scripts they basically fucked a lot of us out of a ton of money with some creators. GREEDY BASTARDS I HOPE YOU CHOKE ON YOUR SHITTY FUCKING SCRIPTING VOMIT.
2. WHAT THE FUCK HAVE THESE LEECH OWNERS EVER DONE FOR ANY OF THESE BIG DESIGNERS EXCEPT HAVE A SHITTY FUCKING EVENT WHERE THEY LET THE LIKES OF THAT ZERKALO TRASH INTO THEM.
3. Someone needs to teach that ZERKALO girl HOW TO TEXTURE IN ANYTHING BUT FUCKING WHITE OR A BLANK PRIM TEXTURE ON HER ARCADE SHIT.
4. WHERE WAS all the big named designers we are use to seeing in the arcade this round. NOT THERE as witnessed by the OMEN and Dust BUNNY machines being released on a different day without the leech bastard owners from the arcade taking a cut. WE ALL STILL PLAYED THE MACHINES BY THE WAY.
5. TO THE OWNERS OF THE ARCADE.. YOUR EVENT CAN BE REPLACED AND TRUST ME SOMEONE IS GOING TO REPLACE IT VERY VERY SOON WITH ONE THAT DOESN’T CHARGE THERE DAMN DESIGNERS 5K ENTRY OR 5% OF THE TAKE. BE WORRIED BITCHES YOU AREN’T THE ONLY EVENT IN TOWN.
6. I’M A PISSED OFF ARCADE DESIGNER AND CONSUMER AT THE SAME TIME. I MADE A FRACTION OF WHAT I USE TO MAKE THIS ROUND BASED ON ALL THE SUBPAR BULLSHIT THEY LET INTO THE EVENT.
“Someone needs to teach that ZERKALO girl HOW TO TEXTURE IN ANYTHING BUT FUCKING WHITE OR A BLANK PRIM TEXTURE ON HER ARCADE SHIT.”
I agree with this. I think that Zerkalo could at least hire someone to create the textures for the items. The mesh portion of the items seems at least fairly okay, but the textures are horrible; some of them don’t even look like they have been baked.
As an arcade designer myself, I’m very annoyed with the profit leeching thing. They took hundreds of dollars from my machine from me and I am not pleased.
#1 Simple, just don’t part with your lindens if the item’s are shitty.
But if all the other stuff was subpar and you didn’t make much, doesn’t that mean your stuff was subpar also. Tons of subpar stuff means the good stuff stands out even more.
Hope the gatcha trend dies down, the quality at all gatcha events is already dwindling. I usually at least bother to buy the stuff in MP but lately not even worth that.
#8 I don’t have an avi like this but everyone has different tastes and it’s a second life, be what you want, they aren’t hurting anyone so I don’t know why this bothers anyone else.
I don’t have an avatar like this either, but actually they look better than alot of those basic bitches hanging at FMD.
Lol, You mean the animal tails, Wearing the same clothing from Erratic, or whatever event is open that week. Same Hair styles. Same static pose that never changes. And dont forget the downwards mouth like they just licked their own asshole?
#1 I have to admit there were some sad, sad items at Arcade for June 17. Zerkalo was awful; a pillow, a blanket, a table, etc. Not really usually up to Arcade standards. Many high-end events have at least one or two empty stalls lately. So what state is the SL shopping event really in? Hopefully transitional and will come out a lot better in the end.
#8 All I can say is, “yup, I hear you”
I would like to complain about this weeks round of secrets due to the complete lack of COMIC SANS. Granted, the label-maker font in #2 is worth an honorable mention, but it really does piss me off that nobody has dipped into the bottom of the font barrel this week. Oh and #8? Don’t even try with your weak-ass “yellow glow around stencil font” bullshit – your message got lost! WHY DO I EVEN COME HERE ANYMORE?
LOL Fucking A mate, had me rolling with that one
#1 Excuse me, but [RH] is far from shit.
9- Think its a placenta, bought it and love it! lol
Dear poster of number 10. If you’re going to shame someone, ffs give a name. It’s also a boring secret.
1. epiphany is even more shitty than arcade..
Yeah, Epiphany has maybe 4-5 good machines each round. The rest are crap. Arcade has 4-5 bad machines, the rest are good. Beyond that, don’t bother with gacha. Chapter 4s is total crap.
But not as sad as dating somebody who doesn’t date you.
You sound a very sad person. Hope you get well.
Epiphany has a much better reward system, though.
#7 Please get your shit together. That secret is a fucking headache to read. Don’t put text over top of more text. No one here will care to read&aside with the secret when it’s a pain in the ass to read it.
Read&side*
Wait are you actually joking about the Straydog L’etre shit? I’m literally laughing so fucken hard. No really. This is a sad, sad, pathetic attempt. Really get a life. I’m dead.
Exactly what I was thinking. The fuck. This poster is drinking some of that Haterade mixed with dumbfuck.
“……. some of that Haterade mixed with dumbfuck.” Sparkles, this caused an outburst of laughter in the office from me and a coworker. Absolutely love it. 🙂
