1. Why always Gacha drama! If you don’t like Gachas then don’t participate. 2. Yep. We all should take this advice. 3. Weird Lego head Batman. I don’t get it. 4. OK OK I will stop! 5. Ya know, I hate all the alt shit too. I never understand why people need so many alts. 6. Wow, chairs that look like chairs being sold by more than one shop? Shocking. 7. Never been to Ari. No clue here. 8. Let’s see your designs then! 9. Just boring. 10. Madpea…who cares! So over this. Plus I hate your font and background! 11. Yeah, me too. 12. The yoga thing looks ok to me? 13. Adults playing kids on SL always creeps me out. 14. Same comment at 5. I hate alts. 15. Show us the tats you made then? 16. Gross. Lance. Gross. 17. No idea what Fameshed is. Carry on. 18. I imagine there are lots of neglected children due to parental time spent on Second Life. 19. Soon. 20. I can’t read your horrible red text. 21. Alright, I won’t click on it! 22. Not sure why collecting free stuff is now bad in SL? 23. The skin looks ok to me! 24. Not entering anything there! 25. The buildings look good enough to me. 26. No kidding about the pedos. Report them! 27. Sorry for your pain but really. There are liars and cheaters in SL. I know this must come as a shock to you. 28. I looked at your FB profile. You don’t look like a creepy naked kid in any of your other photos. Why keep this one up? You don’t look like a doll at all. You look like a naked teenager and it really comes off as disgusting. 29. Probably not legal but… Read more »
I really wish these designers and bloggers would stop using morph photos, this is pathetic, is your stuff that bad?
Late to the discussion but I feel like the body discussion is useless people will buy what they like. If you don’t like it doesn’t mean others won’t and just because you think you are pointing out better qualities in something, for someone else that could be the qualities they don’t want. I am just glad we all have choices. Suck it up buttercups <3
I really wish this trend of women dressing like slutty children will already stop. Most of the women doing this have kids in reals and are yet fine with making their avatar as a sexy child for their “daddy”. Yes it’s a game, some say it’s kink- but the only kink I can see with a woman child is perverted . Wake up and think of your own kids, fine example you mommies are setting.
@OneName.. but then again you have to remember you’re speaking to the mommies who tell their rl kids to shhhhhh while they’re voice sexing their SL Boo.. lmao..= trashbags
I used to think I really know what was going on in SL. Most of what I read this week left me going….”Huh?”
The only thing I’ve really paid attention to is the Cheeky Pea business. Personally, I think the market is way over saturate with half assed events. I used to hit all of the big ones and drop a significant amount of money because content was new and creative and unique. It’s all gotten to be the same old junk lately. I’ve easily slashed my budget by 75% because there is precious little that catches my eye anymore. When there is a new event opening every other day (or so it seems), no one is spending time to truly create. Deadlines are being met (sort of) at the cost of creativity.
i think people fail to realize how copyright works. if there is a slight difference it is a nock off .. the Mickey Mouse straws are more rounded where as the real i ones would have a defined circle as the ear.. this is the same with designer logos and brand in the real word..
I agree. I am always thinking that people are always complaining this person and that person copied from someone else. In the real world it happens with tiny adjustments. You go into a grocery store and there is a name brand corn flakes and next to it the exact same corn flakes but a store name. Copying someone else is always going to happen because someone will always come up with a great idea that someone else will like and want to put their own twist on it.
Mesh body history. Slink Physique was out before Maitreya did Lara. (adding this in later) I think it was TMP that was the first to do a full body. But their business plan is shady. So Lara was not first. There are 2 things that brought us to where we are now regarding Maitreya being the 1 body. 1. Something lots of business owners in SL neglect then they whine they are only making a pittance. MARKETING!! Maitreya was a big a name for years and years. Then they knew how to market. They marketed the shit out of Lara. They also teamed up with other stores so that when Lara came out, there was lingerie, skin appliers and Maitreya does clothes and shoes. So you could buy the body then grab some appliers and get clothes right on the da of release. 2. Smart business sense. Maitreya only handed out their body kits to a select few people from the start. Those kits didn’t go the little unknown stores. They went to the big names. And even if you got the kit you had a sign away your life (not figuratively). There really was an agreement you had to sign. So for a long time only those top elite stores had access to the dev kit to make anything for Lara. There is a whole bunch of other shit Maitreya did that made her body more desirable to customers but thats what she did. Now lets address why so many stores do Maitreya exclusve. Its not only because its the most popular body by a huge margin. Its because making clothes mesh bodies is extremely time consuming. Every single body has its own rigging, its on quirks and headaches. A store with just one person can’t keep up making… Read more »
*yawn*
People got hung up on “first” and forgot the “cheapest” part; Lara was cheaper with including the feet and hands than Slink ever was, especially with each position for feet and fingers being sold separately. Lara was the earliest on CHEAPEST choice.
It looks like it.
I’ve talked to a few content creators about the Maitreya exclusive thing and they said about as much about the time it takes to rig for multiple bodies, what with deadlines and all.
Still not gonna stop that conspiracy theory that ‘the Licensing agreement says you must make stuff only for this body’ that surfaces once every blue moon. To be honest, I’m surprised that this rumor didn’t pop back up after Catwa’s little stunt. Maybe it’s because of that and TMP that people are willing to believe the worst of content creators.
Well that conspiracy is a bunch of bullshit. If you’ve ever watched some of the twitch streams of store owners when they are rigging for bodies and see how long it actually takes, you’d see that the “exclusivity deal” is a bunch of bullshit. This isn’t the old days where people were just rigging for the Ruth body. The work is increased for each body so if you do one of Slink, one Belleza and Maitreya thats 3x the work you used to do. Lots of customers are just very ignorant on what it takes to keep up now.
Also the creators of the other bodies have themselves to blame also, they didn’t actually make it easy for store owners to create for their bodies. Maya users were having a horrible time with the SLink body for over a year. I’m not even sure its really been fixed now. But by the time it was fixed Maitreya already had a strangle hold on the market.
Other reasons:
Slink wanted you to buy hands and feet separate at first and each pose/state was a separate purchase. Pre-bento obviously but if you hadn’t gone into buying Slink hands and feet already, the cost of those plus body was a turn off.
Maitreya decided to not only have Lara come with hands and feet but to be compatible with Slink hands and feet. That was a biggie for people who owned Slink hands and feet already but did not like Physique or Belleza. They didn’t need to give up their shoes and nail polish if they wanted to buy Lara.
Belleza had a copyright controversy and during that time, no demo for Venus was available. You were just expected to buy the pack with Isis and Freya. I really feel this hurt Belleza because Venus was supposed to be the “generic” body with Freya being thick and Isis being petite. No demo plus someone saying they were going to file charges.. yeah, not great for business.
I remember when Slink was the body everyone was latching onto, Maitreya had to market hard to get where it’s at now. Other bodies could have done the same. I think Slink sat back on their laurels and expected their name to make them #1. It didn’t. Physique size is often left out now or replaced by Hourglass.
I gotta say tho, you got the white girl curvy/chubby thing right. That’s what I went for and Lara can do that fine. If I was going to do anything PoC chubby, I’d probably get Freya.
Belleza released 3 bodies each with 3 different breast versions. That created a lot of confusion for both designers and customers. Customers were confused at how it was all gonna work, and designers were confused wondering if they had to rig for 9 different versions. Maitreya was straight forward, easy to use and compatible with slink.
Honestly I’m not a fan of the breasts and torso on Belleza bodies. But I understand why many like Freya.
It works with certain shapes. It’s not my favorite either but I see how it would work well if someone wanted to go for genuinely fat.
I can relate. LOL ghetto fab whore .. I refuse to use the word couture with that LOL. Also there are some blogger managers who feel the need to micromanage the shit out of people. This is SL not RL. I make art for a hobby and not for someones approval. You like me or you don’t. So the designer likes me and the blogger manager is jealous…. I don’t have time for that. I do my own thing in my own time unless I am being paid then I will hoof-it. There is a reason I don’t overlap designers in a category, I need time for RL. Also I am not a blogger just for the free stuff… I like a designer, they are friends, their business is important to me… thats why I blog. But back to the topic….. Maitreya did a bunch of things right to get where they are. Belleza didn’t do a bunch of things and got to where they are. My personal favorite mesh bodies are Belleza but I went to Maitreya now and then out of necessity. Many designers do not have time to rig for 10 dif bodies and after rigging for Maitreya with appliers which are diffecult… they are done and have no energy for 5 more bodies. I can relate to that. SL is a hobby and if its an RL business these decisions are theirs to make not ours.
See thats the thing about many store owners, definitely not all. The big successful store owners know its a business. If you are getting regular RL money and depend on that money like regular income, then SL is not a hobby. But some of these stores like to play it both ways. When its time to cash out and get paid its “woe is me, this is my job my business I need to cash out to get paid. I make my living this way.” But when a customer demands better service, options customer service its “woe is me, this is just a hobby its not RL.”
Meanwhile I’m like bullfuckingshit, if you depending on this income to pay bills its not a hobby its a business and treat it that way.
Also notice I don’t use the word “designer”. Most of the stores in SL don’t design shit. Anyone that has the talent to design clothes or furniture pieces they are making bank in RL, not pawning off pixels for pennies. Its been said so many times. Oh that bench is “inspired” by RL. Yeah someone in RL designed that bench you been inspired by. There is very little if any originality in SL fashion and housewares.
^5@the word designer. i agree a million percent
yeah they have to get their ideas from somewhere. Many things have aspects of RL or are made to look just like RL but with a different name. If you cant have something in RL because its too expensive you can most likely get it in SL 🙂
#33 This post will burn me but I’m getting fet up. You guys have a problem with me and that’s fine… I don’t blame anybody at all. I’ve treated many people over the years like shit and made plenty of mistakes; often repeatedly that hurt people. I don’t agree with everything that has been said about me but I’m also not going to sit and argue. I am an asshole, at times I have been manipulative, unruly, verbally abusive and more. I’ve got problems and some people don’t even know about and haven’t always gotten help for this. This makes socializing with me very difficult at times and for that, I am truly sorry for this whether you believe me or not. I know many people have given me ample amount of chances and I’ve ruined them all and created great regret amongst people. It’s to the point where I don’t bother even trying to go back and fix what I’ve done in the past because that ship has sailed. It has nothing to do with me not caring. I just dont feel to waste peoples time when there’s a high probablility I will fuck up as always. With all this being said… I would appreciate if people would quit targetting Tyler. He is not guilty of anything besides caring about someone who has wronged other people. He is a decent guy who is foolish to see the good in me despite many talks of how broken and fucked in the head I am. People can think and say what they want of me… but just because you are affiliated with a less than desireable person doesn’t make you the same as them. We all have that one person that people hate in our circle at some point in our… Read more »
Honey, you can’t argue because you know it’s the truth. I guess when you fuck & fuck over so many people, silence will break. You only did this to yourself. I’m sorry you face internal issues, as do many people on Second Life, but they don’t have to transmit their issues into aggressiveness or performing sexual acts that would be deemed illegal in real life. I do hope you one day break away from this mess and get yourself on the right side of the tracks, but until then… people are still going to hate on you because of the situations you keep putting yourself into. It’s just the sad reality.
@ Submitters, for the sake of us that are visually impaired or who have problems parsing a shit ton of colors overlaying each other please try to make your shit readable, holy fuck. Purple over a photo with a very thin white outline is NOT readable
#32 Whoever Wrote This About Tyler Is Simply Ignorant, Tyler Is Not Nor Has he Ever Been a Paedo. The Fact That You Highlighted The Age Shifting Only Show’s Your Ignorance It Simply Means He Changes Avatars And Each Has a Different Age, Like One Day He May, Decide To Be a Teen and Go To School Or Rp a Child Avi, Or an Adult And Go Clubbing, Some Prefer To Be A Neko or Robot Or Furry, Then Go Human,
Its Just a different Way To Experience SL It Does Not Make Him a Paedo Or a Bad Person, Just as I’m Sure The person who posted that is a fairly decent person most of the time but today they chose to be an asshole and be a keyboard warrior to try and make themselves feel better and compensate for the lack of attention they are not getting at home. I would suggest seeking Therapy and try stepping outside go for a walk make some real friends the imaginary ones you have been playing with are putting you on the wrong path, ya know what maybe if you actually tried talking to Tyler you might find out what a loving caring person he is instead of trying to hurt people for no reason because you have nothing better to do, I pray no one ever makes you feel hurt like that i pray that love and peace will find its way to your heart and replace all of this anger
God bless

Then perhaps he should remove the partnership so his name isn’t tainted with pedophilia. It’s hard to look past it if you run into Alex and he’s “age shifted” into a toddler.
How on earth did you decide which words were proper nouns? By how angry you were or by how important the word is to you??? Good heavens, Not Every Word Is A Proper Noun!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

36. Imagine being so petty and small-minded that you insist every person’s SL avatar confirm to their sex assigned at birth or RL gender.
45. Shocker. Two shoe brands make similar versions of a fashionable shoe profile.
(I own both pair. And like them both.)
#36: Bruce Brennan…… fairly new blogger, is sure that he or shall I say SHE is a pro. So much so that she slanders other bloggers on both her FB accounts. Thats no way to make friends nor become a better blogger. Photography skills need work too. Time to grow up and learn from others. If she were actually NICE to people maybe she would get some pointers.
#46 I’m not even sure why this was submitted. They aren’t the same shoe. ???
#7. Bodyheat is still open?
apparently. Dunno how though. She’s run off most of the real friends she had.
Can’t say I’m too hype on this week’s secrets, however:
Shout-out for using the word “rotund” to describe Second Life users. That made me laugh.
what i dont understand about this mesh body argument is if chicks are going to make their avas into a big huge fat women, at least make it look realistic. no fat people have thigh gaps you can park a winnebago in or super model bone structure in their faces. from where im sitting it looks like those complaining about the maitreya being incapable of having “real curves” are the ones who have no concept of reality. its called slider abuse, people. and there was a whole blog dedicated to it.
you wouldnt notice 1/2 the flaws if most of ya.ll hoochies put clothes on… lol all bodies look pretty decent dressed nice..something so many people know nothing about.. lol i have most of the bodies but use mostly maitreya due to fashion reasons.. i liked hourglass and freya but freya has a seriously awful cankle problem that i just cant see past and i stopped using hourglass when the hands went bento and started looking extra lanky.. i think its a matter of how u dress… if you’re going to impress some basement dwelling grease ball who bangs other girls when you log by all means go katana or curvy.. but if you simply can appreciate beautiful clothing pieces maitreya will get you most options. that is all
Yeah. I dont care if people want the heavier plus size avatars but most
I see are creepy shaped. Ass that looks like a table on top, massive thigh gaps and square hips massive with tiny upper body. just ugh, unnatural
You can be realistically chubby with Maitreya easy. Probably the only body I couldn’t get to be chubby the right way was Hourglass because the mesh insisted on that corset waist. Easiest was Freya though because it’s built bigger but most of them are easy if you understand sliders and don’t crazy abuse them. Body fat doesn’t just go to your hips, butt, and boobs and leave your thighs and waist perfectly petite – that’s the mistake I see people make. I used a combo of body fat, muscle, thickness, and belly sliders to get realistic chubby shapes. If you want the upper end of the plus size scale, I think I’d suggest Freya over Maitreya however.
I do have to point out something though – a lot of Maitreya clothing is absolute shit and was rigged on a beta Maitreya body meaning it’s not rigged right at the back of the neck/shoulders/back and often at a place where it can’t be alphaed without missing a chunk of visible body and not rigged right at the waist meaning it’s no better than a standard size, any body fat is going to clip because the waist isn’t rigged to work with the body sliders. So even with a shape that’s not slider abuse, you’re going to get bad Maitreya clothing. Especially if it’s template clothes.
Maitreya is the most popular body, not the best by any means. it’s ugly honestly. the nipples are frightening tubes, the legs have no shape at all, the butt is hangy and weird. the saddlebags are too low, the hips are pointy and odd….its ugly unless you want to look like a 13 year old, I guess, and the maitreya exclusiveness needs to stop really. the only reason so many people wear it is because so many creators cater to it.
I honestly don’t know where they are coming from with the claims that Maitreya cannot have “real curves”. If you know how to create a shape, you can have curves with that body. I have both Maitreya and Belleza and both have their pros and cons. From my understanding, eBody is also very nice, both versions but once again, they have pros and cons as well. Really, it comes down to a matter of style and taste. Everyone is different so they will want different things from their mesh.
As for those who claim they have “real curves” that no one else can seem to get with the other forms, what they have was the inability to stop pushing those sliders over to insane levels and warping the mesh. Those would be the same people I bet that go to clothing creators, bitching that the clothes and textures are warped and not fitting right and doing weird things. Then, they get all in a huff about a creator mentioning that they may have to bring their shape down to something that actually is more reasonable and realistic.
I mean I wouldn’t say Maitreya doesn’t have “real curves” but if your hoping to be a plus size avatar Maitreya isn’t the best for it. Typical I like to add both fat and stomach so I can look more like a person who was plus size. When you add fat and a bigger stomach to Maitreya you have the pointest hips and you look pregnant. TBH though I think most people complain about Maitreya saying it’s bad it’s not because it actually is bad (it’s great for non-plus size curvy and thin avatars) but rather because they’re extremely frustrated with the clothing situation where almost everything is a Maitreya exclusive. It’s extremely frustrating to go to an event and only be able to buy 1 or 2 things out 100 for your favorite body. I understand that Maitreya is the most popular but I don’t think it’s that odd to still be frustrated with that situation anyway. It would be nice if you had clothing options when you have a preference for a bigger body (like Belleza Freya or slink hourglass can do) and weren’t forced into wearing a body that doesn’t work for you because there are fewer options for anything but Maitreya. It’s a bit like the clothing situation IRL if your plus size….it sucks to carry that into SL too.
Damn, this round of SL secrets sucks. Bunch of randos nobody really knows or cares about, and some store drama that’s blown out of proportion. I’ll tune in next Sunday, the bar has been set pretty low from this point.
To me, every week is a bunch of randos that I don’t know or care about. The bar was already set low. Not sure why you all expect the NY Times.
It slays me people act like we got morals or care. I could block whole countries from this site and no one could say shit.
This place has always been supermarket rag weekly world news. Batboy.
And a dayum funny rag weekly that keeps me coming back every week with food and coffee…*lays out a plate of pastries*., take a pastry guys it’s almost impossible to be upset over anything when you got one in hand I promise!
Secrets always ebbs and flows. There are weeks we’ve gotten like 4-7 secrets and some we’ve gotten tons.
Depends on who gets pissed off or double crossed. That’s what makes secrets.
seriouslly someone missed herself being on slsecerts cause we all know she looks at it everyweek. can you be more of a attention whore ? JADE . or its someone else you pissed off .. but we know this is the only free adverisement you can do for your club . if you wouldnt be telling people to put fake rummors about you maybe your club would be popular like you think it is . the reason why you with DJ SCORPION. cause we all knowing you paying him . he wont dj at a club for free . so good thing that child support check that you get . comes in very handy dont it ?at least you was just paying for the sim . but now its him too those poor kids . what they going to eat now? or have anything they really want maybe if they come in secondlife they might be able to live the life they suppose to . oh ya i forgot we all know you put # 31 vald on here . cause you wont say whore . you only say hoe . ffs . DOES YOUR EX need attention too? JADE close up your patheic club and be a mom to those children . wait a second . aint im asking to much thats almost like me saying for you close your legs . and you know that will never happen . stop copyiing off of someone who put you on here . for legit . makes you look like you a patheic attention whore
#8. Please read the rules for the use of those designs even purchased. They can not be used as your own or resold for commercial profit. They are allowed to be used in SL only for the use of personal for yourself. You can not claim as “original work by you” nor can “sell in a shop event etc “. A commercial allowed license is totally different.
I think they’re being sarcastic and stating that these are the popular 3D modeling websites that thieves go to, hence the quotations around “designers”. They’re saying happy hunting for those who want to hunt down the originals for proof against thieving designers who pass off things as “their work”.
Jadelous you REALLY need to prioritize your life. your children will remember you always on the computer hooking up with god knows whoever your current sl partner is. I Really feel for your children as they wont forget this
Honestly to all the store stuff who the fuck cares. To Spirit …. the skins really do suck. No one cares about anyone’s real life get over it.
#32- Not a good DJ, Fucks the owner, needs his avi remodeled, and don’t hide your rl picture
You uh… don’t need to show your real life face in Secondlife… because it’s secondlife.
#38 You Salty bitches lmao. Are you one of the people Kimmy told to fuck off after you started being a prick to her? They are not the same person. They are from different countries you fucking moron. I’ve spoken to them both on voice. Morgan is a kiwi, Kimmy is English. Go be salty in someone else’s direction and leave the good people of SL alone ya twat.
This is so funny to read all this shit 🙂 Thank you this make my day . 🙂 And Scorpio you said right
next week we can talk about you and all the mess you left. there are a lot of exes telling stories about your obsession with flickr and being “popluar”. but you have found the perfect match. kimmy is like you one of the biggest asslicker ever. inclusive those group headers: you really think this tells anything about how GOOD you are? it do not. it do not say anything than you guys are making big show for nothing. it is so mortifying, so much that i just check your flickrs to laugh my ass off!
Morgan is well known as mindgamer. She loves to play the boss and being all over all others. Kimmy act like opposite and so stupid. That’s just a roleplay. And those headers, right? Did she miss the point that one person choose a group banner? Make a necklace of your idiotic banners. Morgan logs on Kimmys account when she want and dress her, talk to her peeps. Close friends knows this. That’s right, girls, yes? Hold your enemies close ? always when one of you bitches start to talk I can only roll my eyes. So pathetic.
Oh wow you verified them! then what you say must be true. I think they are the same cuz both their flickrs suck ballz and they are both desperate attention whores. Congratulations on your 20 headers Kimmy you really need to get your ego fingered in the ass don’t you?. Also congratulations Morgan that you are getting cock, what a lifetime achievement to put on a video! I’ll make sure to leave an award to your amazing art x
Morgan fucks only her alts. No one have seen all the boyfriends before. She is always acting like all men wants her. But no one does.
Haters gonna hate. ♥
2, 3, 19, 55 — okay, why the fuck would you approve these shit submissions? literally zero relevance and sense. felt like just dropping your already low standards?
We have standards? That’s news to me.
I’m so confused about #1 because the rules are different this round. Blueberry isn’t the only one offering a fatpack. She’s the one getting trampled on though. From the notecard part I seen it sounds as if the gacha itself should remain as a gacha. She has a gacha and fatpack. So if she chooses not to put the gacha in her store then that’s her choice. The fatpack is something new and different and not the gacha itself so it going into the store as a fatpack is a non issue. Sometimes I think people just bash her because they can and don’t really think about the rules and what it really means.
Actually, it’s just that whoever made the secret isn’t capable of reading comprehension. The rules don’t say that the gacha items MUST be sold after the event, which is what this secret is trying to imply. The rules say that IF the items are sold after the event, they must remain as a gacha, they cannot be sold in any other format.
So you’re right, they just didn’t take a second to think.
Blueberry IS selling the items AFTER the the event and NOT in gacha form. They ARE actually breaking the rules. It has nothing do with during the event fatpacks etc at all.
She is selling the FATPACK. At the event itself there is a Gacha and fatpack. The gacha has to stay in gacha form. The fatpack is not covered in that notecard, but it’s a fatpack form after the event. Not sure if you understand any of this. But creators were able to sell their items as Gacha and Fatpack so she’s not breaking the rules.
No, she is not breaking the rules, not for this round. This round, they are allowed to sell fatpacks, which she is, as well as a few others. The rules do not cover anything about those fatpacks. Since they are in fatpacks and not in gachas, or not just in gachas form, then that gacha rule cannot apply to those. It’s a special round where they are allowing this. The others who are selling fatpacks will probably do the exact same thing as Blueberry is, after the event, selling them in the store in fatpack form.
If you are going to make a secret regarding this, then you need to include everyone in that secret, not just one person/store that you are feeling salty about.
Whoa The Loft too?? That is pretty shitty especially since their prices are so high. I almost bought their stuff at Uber until I choked at the price.
No, the poster for #33 against the Loft&Aria was an idiot for not seeing all the differences. “Oh it looks similar, must be a rip-off!” Both models from the Loft&Aria and 3DSky are based off a real bed but each have small differences. 3DSky’s version is more alike to the real thing while the Loft’s not as real, meaning there’s barely any flaws or feeling of weight in the construction.
Says the owner of the Loft&Aria. Anon hey. All these objects from these websites are so high in poly count that they need to be modified to even import to SL. So small differences are expected, to be able to bring the poly count down enough for SL’s limits.
At the very least, shop at some stores that actually have imagination and don’t just copy shit identical to RL. Even if you take inspiration from RL objects, put your own spin on it for goodness sake. Otherwise, how much better are you as a creator as a template mesh designer.
Not the owner but I do have a good eye and actually take the time to look at a product than a simple glance over. The models are different even though they are both based on the same real product.
And a vast majority of SL is based on the real world, from fashion to buildings and nature to fantasy. Take a good look at your own avatar’s closet and see how much of it is “shit” copied from the real world.

Scandalize wins, because they take the time to rig for more than one boring, basic, over used body. Nice try though.
There’s about 200 pairs those shoe types on SL. In both styles. BTW look at the toes the front is NOT the same not the strap over toes or the platform shape under toes. duh lol And Scandlize doesn’t copybot cos nothing in her store is like others in details to be a copybot item and she rigs in many body meshes.
Look her store and look Stores like Addams, Blueberry, Candydoll, Cynful… She copyboted from them
I agree the Maitreya is an exclusive to basic bitch’s and is over played body with a weird droopy ass.
Learn to create a body shape properly and you won’t have a weird droopy ass.
The butt can drag a bit with Lara, depends on where the slider is. Lara is more for “Reasonably Decent Booty” rather than “Sir-Mix-Alot’s Choice Booty”. If it’s droopy, your numbers might be too high. Slink has a better “bubble butt”.
Also… what isn’t a “basic bitch” body? Belleza? eBody? Maybe it’s really out there like Snokra, Solarian, Kobold, and PsiCorp – super hipster and cool if you exclusively use those and their tiny selection of clothes.
Scandalize means Copybot. She barely has own ideas. Just take others hard work
Preach it. That is why Scandalized got kicked out of a lot of events then disappeared for a few months. Jokes on us customers because she just made 2-3 other brands they all look alike and steal copy. I guess it doesn’t matter to events like collabor88 where they brought her back in funny too because she collabs with her own other brands to get them back out there too.
Let me correct you on “boring, basic, over used” with best seller, most used and easiest, most functional HUD. So stop being petty to a designer because they don’t have the time to rigg for every other body out there that won’t do any significant change to their sales.
nope, she had it right.
“Monica” is a self appointed spokes person for Maitreya apparently. Go be basic elsewhere with your shitty curves. Moron.
Yes, it was the cheapest on the grid, earliest, and people with less discerning taste (is that better than basic and boring? Because they mean the same thing anyway; Lara is the basic bitch body, period) haven’t bothered to explore other options. I appreciate it, really; it really makes better bodies stand out in crowds, but designers who only rig for it are slowly falling out of favor and will continue to do so. Hey, maybe there are still enough people out there running SL in low res mode to keep them in business though! Can’t notice the lack of detail so much on low graphics, after all.
You sound like a petty nerd arguing that your Commodore 64 is better than “the basic bitch” NES because your C64 is the obvious Hipster choice and underappreciated. Also you are totally classy and smart for choosing it and NES users are low brows.
Get real.
There is no “best body”, every last one has good points and bad points. I have no idea why Maitreya is so popular but it’s the one I chose for my adult avatar AFTER demoing several different mesh bodies for months. Mesh bodies made me pretty angry at the start because it was quite hard to get rid of the bubble butts, unrealisticly perky boobs, and corset waists to make an average woman shape. That’s improved slightly now but there are some bodies that won’t allow you to be anything but a super model. I had the best luck with Maitreya and the worst luck with Hourglass, Isis, and Freya (no Venus demo was available when I was ready to buy). Why would I buy a body I couldn’t get to look the way I wanted just to be on “hipster” level and “high rez”? I also don’t care about hyper-realistic muscle tone but I mean, if you do.. props?
Too bad Belleza is laggy as balls as well. There’s a reason people don’t right click that body if they know better.
I did that once and found out fast not to do that again. Everything slowed down into a slow-motion viewing. I have never had that with Maitreya or even Wowmeh.
Totally with you on that A-Kid I got Maitreya for the same reasons of wanting to have a more “natural” female frame and the fact it’s versatile with things like V-tech and I can pretty much have my pick of clothes and whatnot when it comes to other creators making mesh for it .
So you all who are sitting there dissing those who chose the “Basic Body” so what we aren’t forcing you to buy it so why are you sitting there acting like snobs when most likely you are taking cues from us “basic bitches” with your fashion sense anyway >.>
Welcome to sl, where anyone that uses a mesh body of any sort has the potential to look cookie cutter, or at least quite similar to another. All of the bodies, however, have the capability to alter their looks so as to remain as least cookie cutter as possible. That doesn’t make them “better bodies”, it just reflects personal preferences. Maitreya is still, and has always been, the most popular choice. It may not be YOUR choice, but it still remains the most popular one. For creators to cater to primarily that audience, is a smart move in sl. Business 101 dictates that you cater to your largest audience and only cater to niche audiences when it’s fiscally sound. Being salty and throwing pot shots at people that use, or create for, a body you dislike, just makes you sound like an idiot. If you don’t think there is enough for your chosen mesh body, get to work on creating things. I take a to each their own approach, and I use multiple different bodies as the mood strikes. Using a non-Maitreya body doesn’t mean you have “more discerning taste”, it means you have different preferences, and good on ya for it!
I loooove the salt 😀 have fun with your lack of muscle definition, Lara ladies!
Well put. Or when they try to have a booty and the ass looks like it’s melting down the back of their legs. Lmao
Was by far not the first, nor cheapest on the grid. It’s only a basic bitch body if you don’t know how to make a good shape for it.
Every body out there has its advantages and disadvantages. None of them, not even Belleza (which only stands out because it’s less used than others), is perfect, I’ve tried them all on release. It all depends on what you do with it.
If Kiana “Writer” being a greedy piece of shit is news to you, then you haven’t been paying attention. She steals ideas and presents them as her own, she uses friends for their skills so she can profit off their work (you think she does anything for Backbone other than show her boyfriend Pinterest pictures to copy?) , She has used countless designers for the benefit for MadPea and then tossed them when they no longer served her blindly. She has always treated her staff like shit asking them to work insane hours under pressure for little reward. She talks crap about those closest to her, and finally –and she is really good at this– she is a fucking genius at playing the victim. I mean she brings victomhood to a whole new artform. When secrets have been posted about her she asks people to defend her, so let’s all get some popcorn and look forward to to ass lickers who come to sing her praises in the comments. And btw Modpeas were always compensated solely by free products and an occasional one time linden bonus when they had to put in extra above and beyond type work. Kiana, you suck. I hope you know how badly you fucking suck.
As a current member of the crew, I honestly agree with a big chunk of this. I don’t believe all of the staff are bad as noted previously by others, but a big chunk of them are happy to follow Kiana and her word blindly.
MadPea is falling. Just a few days ago one of the mods/CSRs was making it obvious in chat they intend to cheat to make their new attraction open quicker. When a group member called them out a huge argument ensued within the crew. These are not all honest people.
As for BackBone it’s not just Axl. Other MadPea staff are filling in and working there now too.
How exactly did they intend to cheat? It would be really helpful for you and anyone else to share as much. Submit it as a Secret if you rather.
It’s best for customers to be aware especially with how much is spent on their overpriced games (L$1000-L$2000 per game) and gacha sets (L$5000+ to complete a set on average). And on top of that if they now plan to collect L$8000-L$12000 PER PERSON every year through these paid membership groups and use dishonest methods covered up with a fake friendly facade, then Madpea will be as big of a scam as those fake fundraising events.
Classic! Even people within MadPea don’t care about the demise of Madpea and will divulge Kianas secrets. You can’t make this stuff up kiddies! LoL
I know for a fact Backbone is all axel, Kiana doesn’t have a creative bone in her body, that’s why she has a team of people there at Madpea. She’s a greedy piece of shit.
It’s not only the staff side that is rotten to the core, it’s also how they treat their customers. The condescending and greedy attitude that is always present.
Whether it’s someone asking about one of their products or a conversation on a non-Madpea related topic in their group, someone on staff always gives a response that is injected with a pitch towards one of their PRICED products. An attempt in every instance to try and dig money out of a customer. If the customer wavers, they’ll throw 101 reasons at them why they should spend on Madpea and even give you a complimentary teleport to the vendor. But if the customer says no, they no longer respond and have time to help and the customer gets ignored. If anyone needs to be further convinced, try it you’ll see.
On her ideas and products, she has yet to show proof to her customers that they are original. There has been NO TRANSPARENCY, yet in Secrets #43 & #44 she feels she’s entitled to be privy to proof on other creators.
ive been in the group for quite a while now and ive actually gotten very good/prompt customer service each time ive asked for it. the mods have been friendly to me too. I wouldn’t pay for that service though
And that is after how much you have spent to date? Now put a padlock on your wallet and let them know that rent is more important and you can’t afford their heap of junk anymore. Then see if they are just as prompt and friendly to you.
Ive probably spent a lot less than most.
Kiana treats everyone like shit, she probably treats her own shadow like shit. Madpea is the biggest ripoff. It used to be a good company, but the games are laggy as hell now, overly complicated, and do not make sense at all. Now you have to pay for help because thats right, they refuse to support their customers who pay for their hud and have supported them throughout the years, so now they want 12,000 lindens a year from you, on top of hud fees and god knows what else. People should stop supporting this scam of a company by the droves, then Kiana would have to get off her fat ass and actually get a job in real life, instead of screaming about how Madpea pays for her real life bills etc.
Chloe Vanderbilt x Belier cosmetics is a known copybotter, she copybotted Vive9 mesh heads right from the beginning, copybotted skins from multiple brands and yall event organizers allowing this trailer park trash in your events because of your greed for their participation fee, smh
Chloé is a piece of work. In passing she was down right rude. I knew there was something juuuuust not right lol
I remember buying a mesh head from her years ago at the dressing room before vive9 came out with a public head.
even if this is true, how is this relevant to her brand now?
Does it really need to be explained? Face palm………
umm can you prove this cause I just want to know so I don’t buy from her
Mornings All .. This last week I restocked my selves with things from the Asian market so yay Japanese style omelettes!
Well this week the topic for much heated discussion is content thievery… Mind you, I’m all for original work and art but many of you seem to be going a little overboard…
If you all are gonna be that picky and judgmental why don’t you also go raid your RL closets and burn all your clothes also start destroying your furniture including that desk your computer is on and the comfy couch you enjoy while watching TV… Because unless you can afford to pay top dollar for all those things you have you’re not getting “Original work/designs”.
SL is going to be no different than RL in this aspect and really.. come on people.. there are only so many ways to make stuff so yes things will be similar no matter how hard one tries to put their “original twist” to inspired work… If you think I’m wrong why don’t you download blender and make that “original design” and see how long it takes people to say you are a content thief.
On #1. She knows the rules. This is called an exception based on it being her first wedding dress, that is why she posted up that it would not be offered in gacha after. When I see secrets like this I often wonder “God, they must have a shitload of time on their hands to make sure everyone in SL is dotting all the I’s and crossing all the T’s”.
Please learn to read! .. Blueberry is stating she WILL be selling after the event. BUT it will not be gacha form. It WILL be in normal form like the rest her store and at a higher price than the rest her items are marked as.
Why do all you people seem to not be able to freaking read? Blueberry IS blatantly breaking the event rules and being allowed too publically.
She is NOT breaking the rules. You talk about people not being able to read and yet here you are unable to read. This is a new thing for the event. Other designers are also offering fatpacks at the event because it’s allowed this round. The event is trying something different this time and allowing two versions of the items so that people can have a choice. Those who don’t like gacha’s or just rather spend the money outright have that choice to get the fatpack. Those of us who want to play gacha’s and can trade/resell can just hit the gacha. The gacha itself will not be in store after because that’s her choice. The fatpack is a whole different thing. I know it’s a little confusing and apparently recently it’s a drag Blueberry down thing, but don’t let personal feelings or a moron that made a secret because they didn’t understand the rules sway your opinion. The event changed and things are a little confusing now, but doesn’t mean rules were broken by Blueberry.
Isn’t it weird that only people who are being blatantly favored and allowed to break rules seem to think that enforcing rules is nit picking? Oh wait. That’s not weird at all.
Exactly. She might want to read those rules again. No rules have been broken here.
Or say its “Jealousy” LOOOOOOOOOOL! No its about respect for the other designers at the event..
#42 finally people are seeing June for what she is. This secret forgot to include how she cries about Events who haven’t invited her or rejected her brand. While some of your products are amazing June, you have a long way to go in being a GOOD PERSON. I’m sure whoever made this secret about you got burned badly. Typical though. It’s why your circle gets smaller and smaller. Mean Girl approved. Interesting to know you have multiple men and this person knows your RL husband. Yikes!
I know June for long time, she is not as what it is claimed here. I know the first day she made her mesh purse, and her persistent to learn about blender despite her busy schedule as blogger and working life in RL. I know she is not a girl who goes around partying, gossiping or even hopping from one man to another man. June is a hardworking girl in SL, being as a blogger or a creator.
And I know June will not give a fuck to what ever claim here for her. She knows herself and that is more than enough.
The rest of you who complain .. you can continue until you find your own satisfaction on doing so ( which I doubt you will)
Stay awesome June … we all LOVE YOU!
If you’re going to judge her based on how she treats one person or how she treats certain people then you’re not good either. Honestly, she works her sweat off every day to produce good products and with each product, she learns to be better at it. I’m her son, “she cries about Events who haven’t invited her or rejected her brand.” Yes, she mentions events that she wants to be in however she never cries over it. If you’re a good person, you would tell her “keep doing what you’re doing, you will get in!” which is what I always tell her. I believe my mum is a good person in so many instances but I will just list one of it down for now. Heard of Joce? Jocelyn Moonwall? The girl that manipulated a whole lot of people. My mum was one of her best friends. Despite, her working hours, June actually talks to her all time and cries with her through all the “pain” she is going through. She was there for Joce all the time. In exchange, it was actually all lies. June was so broken to be manipulated that she almost wants to leave SL and just create for Dahlia in a beta grid. Which thank god, she is still here with us because she does not deserve to cave herself for someone with the likes of Joce. June has always been a good friend and a reliable one to those in need so tell me are you going to overlook those facts that she spends time being there for others or are you still going to label her for one factor? Touch your heart, have you ever not make a joke about someone and not mean it and then convince yourself you’re still a… Read more »
Is this what your Sl is about or anyone’s for that matter..it may just be time to log off. There was more drama in this post than all my 10 years in sl lol
Ethan, while this is very touching for you to stick up for you mum, the truth of the matter is that she would not treat you the same way she treats other people. You touch on a great deal of things here, I’ll start with Jocelyn. Jocelyn as everyone now knows had severe mental issues. Everyone does know June was close to her, but yes a decent person would still show love and concern for someone like that. A person who truly cares for another human being doesn’t just say “fuck it” and want to quit because they were manipulated and hurt especially if they understood the situation. This is something I don’t understand about a lot of people in SL. They scream I love you I love you I’d do anything for you, but when shit hits the fan regardless of the situation it’s like high school, those people really don’t care about that person, as seen in this situation with Jocelyn. From my knowledge of what happened, she lied to those close to her and basically ALMOST DIED!!!! A person, a human life. Aside from what she did, was she not someone you all liked? Cared about? Fun to be around? So if June cared about her she SHOULD care about her wellbeing, she doesn’t get a prize for being there for her, it’s what good people and good friends do for people that are in pain. Obviously she was going through some stuff, a real friend would be there regardless and help them, not expecting for anything in return. Now, this post is hardly about Jocelyn anyways. It’s about Junes lust of using people. Naddy included. People don’t just bug people for no reason. If she didn’t want anything to do with someone, block and ignore! Simple!… Read more »
I’m not certain you have ever been heavily manipulated by someone, like we all agree Jocelyn did to June… but when it’s to that level… you can still care, but you also know when enough is enough. And when you reach that point, you need to say “fuck it.” How many times would you allow yourself to be lied to before you decided “fuck it?”
Back to June’s alleged lust of using people. Are you speaking from personal experience? Has she actually done something to you? Or are you blindly supporting a friend? That’s fine to support a friend, even blindly; however, it is worth acknowledging that you’re only getting one side of the story. And there is no truth in bias.
As for why June isn’t defending herself on here? Why should she? So you lot… a very small fraction of the SL population can have your satisfaction? Your minds have already been made — made up. She knows her truth. Her friends know her truth. That’s all that matters.
The last sentence in your second paragraph negates your entire last paragraph. If there is no truth in the bias you believe others have expressed, then there cannot be any truth in your own bias, or the bias this June person’s friends may have, either.
You can’t really have it both ways, lol. Either everyone is biased, those speaking out and those defending her, or no one is.
STOP COMPLAINING ABOUT CREATORS WHO MAKE STUFF OFF RL PRODUCTS.
NOBODY FUCKING CARES.
EVERYBODY LIKES IT.
SHUT UP.
I have to admit, I snorted reading this post. Lol I think the caps are what make it.
As people have pointed out over and over whenever someone tries to drag stores for not being original from concept to completion, there is a bit of a difference to keep in mind. Like a post further up states there are knock offs, just like in RL.
“But Pocket, that means they’re shitty and can’t say their creation is original like they do on their vendors!” You’re probably ready to reply, except there’s one more thing to consider. Back when mesh first happened in SL and prefabs started to explode, a group started offering endorsements for creators who had made their own mesh and textures vs using prefabs. It was called SLOCCA and if they found your store to only use mesh and textures you made, you got to put their seal of approval on your vendors.
Fast forward to the last year or two and I’m not sure if they’re still keeping up with stores or whatever; but creators know because of SLOCCA that a customer is more comfortable paying a set price if they think the mesh they’re getting is 100% not a prefab. So they make that a feature to advertise on their vendors ads…thus we get the “Original Mesh!” on everything now.
Just something to keep in mind when throwing a fit over stores not “being original” happens. It’s likely in many cases not what they were trying to claim anyway (though I’m sure there’s exceptions because people are trash).
LoLz SLOCCA. I remember them. It ended up that logo didn’t mean shit. People were slapping it on templates and other crap. The founder said she would not enforce what it was supposed to stand for. Not even sure why she bothered.
triggered?
Nah, it’s probably a case of missing one’s morning tea.
People will stop complaining when creators making stuff identical to RL products are in template events where they belong and not claiming to be ‘Original’ when they can’t even change up something to make it a new take.
It’s their own fault they are being accused of being content theives when their form of being ‘creative’ is to copy something exactly the same as RL.
Are you serious, Pumpkin? Were you dropped on your head as a child? Fuck, did your mother smoke meth while pregnant? The only people crying about creators ‘stealing’ content are those that are too fucking fat to roll out of their swivel chair that creaks when they reach for the next packet of fucking Cheetos. The same people that smoke meth, lack teeth, and speak like they’ve got a mouthful of gravel and unwashed cock. Nothing in this day and age is original – Second Life and real life. Something is always based off something else. Do you expect these people to think up original ideas on the spot and then – fucking seriously – and then SELL THESE FUCKING ORIGINAL IDEAS ON SECOND LIFE? First of all, you redneck piece of shit, if they were original ideas, they’d be pitched to architects and massive companies. Why? Because it’s more profitable. Every book you have read, not that you fucking read, you brain-dead fucking garbage can, is based on something else. Every movie is based on something else. Half the fucking songs written are based on older things. What makes you think Second Life should be different? I come onto virtual-secrets to see pathetic people pissing and moaning about who their e-girlfriend slept with, who fucked their way to the top. I do not come here to see sixty-year-old obese women trying to act like they’re intelligent. Wanna know something? If your IQ is under 70, you’re eligible for government benefits. Go fucking apply. You cannot even spell ‘thieves’ correctly. The absolute fuck? How can you try and accuse people of shit when you can’t spell? Fucking Americans. Every time with this shit. How am I meant to sip my tea, watch people gossip about each other, and have a… Read more »
This motherfucker has all the warning signs.
#28 Its a hug animation with clothes on… Mayza is dealing with a very serious RL medical issue so who ever decided to kick someone when they’re down should be ashamed of themselves! The only thing that’s an issue here is your way of thinking and that says more about you than this picture does of them. Things that creep me out ISL … When someone can turn an innocent photo into a whole other scenario …
Aw thanks but honestly it’s ok it’s only sl and I have to admit after looking at it my body does look the size of a 2yr old lol does look odd , I need to check my angles next time lol I only commented on here because I don’t want people thinking I’m into weird shit lol but at same time I do find it funny , it’s one of those things u learn from haha x
Why does he have his hands on what appears to be a pre-pubescent chest, then? The picture is creepy on several levels.
He doesn’t, his right hand is on his left arm and his left hand is above her breasts, not gripping her. Actually, if you knew the shit deal they’ve been dealt you might have something called compassion and be half decent with an apology in hand. Fyi she doesn’t give herself the little title nor does she call him daddy.
Haha! Keyword: Appears. So, if you’re not even sure, don’t assume.
I’d think the fact that you call yourself Be Less Ignorant, Please would make you more intelligent with your comments. LOL!
It’s a photo, everything is an appearance… lacking sound, or text of any kind. Not sure how you measure “intelligence”, but apparently reading comprehension and logic are not part of the standards, yes?
#27 agree, it’s lovely, but that’s a lot of LI. A store without a private sim they can afford to blow a big prim budget on is better off with something like that well optimized Onsu that gives a professional look without a lot of LI. That’s the reason that store is everywhere. I just wish Onsu would crank out some more alternatives with the same good looking, low LI, easily modified style, cuz I’m sick of it too.
#51 – Family roleplay does not float my boat, but for the love of God – THEY ARE NOT ACTUALLY RELATED – IT IS ROLEPLAY.
I assume they got to know each other, they like each other and now they’re partnered. It might last two weeks, it might last two years.
Sounds like you wanted to get with one or the other and now you’re heated because they didn’t choose you.
#37
You’re pretty much describing human beings in general. Does SL have an age limit that I missed? You’ll get old one day, sweetheart.
its not even roleplay we are really not even bro and sis and yea we got to know eachother for 2 weeks before we got together everyone comes on here and believes everything they see we were never bro and sis even though i have the same name doesnt mean i was fucking my sister i guess everyone thinks that people with the same last name are related in game and fucking there dads and moms and shit to bunch of fucking idiots i mean really its a fucking game get a real life its alot more fun
Hey man, I don’t really know you or anything, but looking at the profiles, it kinda looks like you full of shit. Nutty has a pick of her “Mommy & Dad Sang & Sally” and your pic of “Mom, Dad, & Me” has no names, but Sally has it in her profile under her pick of you. If you have the same mom and dad, then that’s called being brother & sister, lol. But hey, its nothing new. I mean, you’re far from the first to be brother & sister and then end up partnered, with the excuse of, We aren’t really related, its just sl. And you got to know each other for 2 weeks before you got together? Wow, that’s a long time. You really know each other really well, dont you, lol.
Who gives a flying fuck. honestly who? you don’t know them you just roll with it like half of the people that post shit on here, most because they have no life , are lonely or wanted to be with that person and was turned down. in the land of pixels , in a game where you can be and do what ever the hell you want people are acting more holy then they do in there RL. And Yup its true , they met before he joined the family , Maybe it wasn’t smart of him to join the family but he did ad now he is apart of a family and found a sl partner , So what. they are happy, clearly half SL isn’t , that’s why they post here
OMG Chris you’re famous.. you made it on sl secrets, now you may have fangirls!
#12 I freely admit that I also need a life, but I took that stupid ass secret into photo shop, selected the text with a small tolerance (to get nothing else in the selection) and modified that shit til I could read it. Weird font, bad spelling, bad grammar and no punctuation mess that it was, it says:
Copy Bot Birth Skin Claims to be her own work of skin covered Birth skin as much as she could and added her own Toxic Bish logo on it in photo shop Talking shit about other people trying to make her self look better bish your name suits you Your two faced making others look sad always hating others over what?? secondlife?? girl you need a real life
I hope I cured your herp at least.
Hahaha Fucking Outstanding
It was readable even though that person had bad grammar but you cleared that in the air thumbs up .. and Rofl @ the herp. You told them
#51 Nutty is always been disgusting i don’t know how any one could ever date her on sl even if she was the last person on the world i rather jerk my shit before touching that.
as long as you are not a DJ, you have nothing to fear! xD
dont u guys have something better to do then hang out with the no lifes on here i mean really oh thats right cause u have no life its pathetic everyone that gets on here tlaking shit about people joining in on shit yall dont know is pathetic lmfao
I get that you’re salty about being put on here about something you think is idiotic and feel you need to defend. But, are you not doing the very thing you’re bitching at other people for doing, that is, talking shit about people you don’t even know? What exactly do you think this site is even for? You must be new here. Usually when people jump in to defend their actions using the verbiage you are, it’s because the secret has some truth to it, or they are idiots that haven’t a firm grasp on language skills whatsoever, so the verbal garbage shoots forth with little to no control.
You might want to just choose to ignore it like most people do.
and whats more funny u guys wont use ur reall avi names and say it to someones face yall hide on this stupid site talk shit behind peoples backs grow some balls and come at us like for real yall bunch of pussys but no worries this site wont be up for much longer promise
Avatar names are not Real names….
NO what is funny is that u are telling people get a RL yet u have the most comments on here ……………BTW what are u the 5 DJ in 5 months…………….and as for the brother and sister thing u both turned your nose up on Liam……..so explain please what THE DIFFERENCE is please……I am sure we all want to know why you and Sexy Fingers are better?????
Have you ever read a book? Punctuation man, ffs, you type like a moron and no one is going to do anything but laugh at you.
Thats why Jdika you are a worthless cunt with a sad pathetic life jealous because your sister didn’t fuck you but i am pretty sure your daddy fucked you plenty lmao!!!!
BlackRain seems triggered. Perhaps your mommy in RL didn’t love you and daddy and uncle loved you a little too much. 😉
Your so famous derp
wow ur a hater to lmfao its a fucking video game ffs get over yourself and get a RL life fucking loser
sl is a video game? whats the objective?
What’s the objective in Barbie?
if youre referring to the physical barbie dolls, there is no objective other than role playing, playing dress up etc which is exactly my point in asking that question. poster above referred to sl as a video game when its not.
It’s just a fucking bloody video game he say.s yet until she get fucking butt hurt once again and calls your ass out and makes you look bad ha… just a fucking game remember your own words when time comes
In order to be a whore and a slut you have to have multiple sexual partners .
I don’t even have one sexual…or non sexual partner let alone multiple. ..therefore I can’t be a whore and a slut. At home I roleplay a fetus,outside of home I roleplay 2 years old. So who ever wrote that get over whatever crush you have on me that’s making you so butthurt because we’re all laughing at you…..btw whore and a slut….good insult . Totally hit me where it hurts. Or wait that was just gas pains…
are you the voice of the tummy talker? lmao
Tummy talkers are creepy. To have someone RP a tummy talker though?
I guess you need to wear a 100% alpha texture and follow Mommy around to emote “/me is restless and kicks”?
the entire family with all them is gross. Her “daddy” is her “moms” brother so that makes him her uncle. Her “auntie” is married to her “daddy”. These people got some incest in the family. I hope they aren’t breeding cause if the are watch out SL incest is coming into style. All you people need your head examine and for crying out loud reach outside the family for relationship already.
I call him my dad because he’s stable and won’t leave me….ever hear of adoption?
So you people bash that she plays a “fetus” but the rest of you play what? Vamp? Teen? Adults? Children? A mother? A father? My point is this does it even matter what she rps? Every single person is here creating their own SL. Rather it is trying to recreate a part of their RL that may have been bad, non existing or whatever. So with that being said how can you judge someone for their choices of you… Are in second life yourself…
Okay, well – “all” of us did not bash her. I asked a question she never answered. The only thing I could think of was she must spout off things a tummy talker does (which I get the appeal that could be to some folks in certain situations, but it’s not appealing to me). I was only preggers once, 20 years ago- and maybe I’m just feeble minded in my old age & just don’t remember my fetus-offspring talking to me-, but the only thing I really remember my son as a fetus doing to me as interacting was making me vomit every single friggin day from about my 11th week till I had a C-section cause he didn’t wanna come outta that nice cozy fluid filled sac he called home for 9 months. Oh, he also stomped on my bladder, repeatedly- making me pee myself for several months. I just really wanted to know how that would equate into someone roleplaying to someone else….
So you’re saying she RPs being a fetus, because that part of her rl life was bad or “non existing”? You can’t possibly be serious, lol. Are there not some flavors of RP in sl that aren’t your style, aren’t things you enjoy, are things you would never do, are things you would see or read about and think “oh hell no”? Most of these replies aren’t even judgmental, they’re just trying to figure out how the hell someone even RPs a damn fetus. Here’s a tip for you, though, every human on the planet judges other humans, including you, it’s impossible not to.
I’m trying to wrap my head around how you would rp a fetus. How do you do that?
What?! You RP a fetus… A FETUS? You RP an unborn human baby… OK, that’s not creepy at all .
This has to be the most ridiculous thing I’ve read in a long damn time. A fetus? Stop.
Wait- whut? You role-play a fetus? How exactly do you do that?
#45 wtf. 2 different designs, the same kind of shoe. Sorry but there is only a limited variety to shoes that are wearable without looking like shit. Thats like posting sneakers from reign and posting sneakers from vale koer next to each other and then compare them. Also Fri.day is ok, but would be way better if they would make stuff also for other bodies than only maitreya, something that scandalize does, so stopp whining.
What store is #5?
damn, I meant 7.
#1 Actually if you think about this, she is being smart. Those selling the gachas on marketplace for ridiculous prices such as this store, selling the full set for 16,999K https://marketplace.secondlife.com/p/00Blueberry-ForeverBerry-Complete-Full-Set-WRARES-Maitreya/15154178 will have no choice but to take their wild prices down since the item will be available in world for all to purchase the color and style they really want after the event is over.
I don’t know about anyone else but, I think gachas have caused some residents to go mad with greed. That store I linked even has one full set of gacha going for L$1,000,000,000 https://marketplace.secondlife.com/p/SPIRIT-Lindia-Complete-Full-Set-WRARES-Maitreya/12653551 I doubt the designer even made that much on that one release. Come on guys… where do we draw the line with the gacha madness?
I love these attempts to cut off gacha gougers at the knees, personally. It’s really disgusting to think you deserve to make some kind of massive profit off someone else’s work, and the people who are paying these amounts must be borderline retarded.
I get the sense that theres something else going on besides expecting to get all that money for a rare. thats like money laundering right there
honestly its no different than retail buying wholesale.. its sl and at least give people credit for trying to make L’s instead of gofundmes lol
don’t believe this crap. I have never anything that Fancy Decor or loft & Aria has done elsewhere. 1. Where is the proof that these items are stolen? 2. If they are not stolen and just retextured full perm, who cares. With the way you all are going on these witch hunts you are going to kill all of the sl decor,furniture stores? Then what we all going to decorate with? Hmmm?
As far as Madpea goes well, I know what they are like. I used to work for them and it was/is a mafia that needs to be brought down a peg. When people quit due to the drama she causes, she claims she fires them. Want to know why Deco Crate really died? It was because the designers starting pulling out because of her b.s. Ask Ariskea why she left the Decocrate. I know the reason!
#33 The poster obviously can’t tell the difference between similar and same. That bed is not the same model from 3DSky. Replicating something from scratch isn’t a crime.
Both models are replicas from a real bed on GrandinRoad called the Paloma Bench. https://www.grandinroad.com/paloma-bench/1005099
On the same website. CandyDoll also being ‘original’ I see. https://goo.gl/XsfdVQ
its like beating a dead horse pumpkin… unless they made something original and others copied it they’re completely clueless on the topic.
Anon again, posting in reply to any post mentioning their store. You’re not half obvious are you.
Why don’t you use some of that imagination and make it different if you really did make it from scratch, which I doubt. Change up the design of the weaving across the front, Make the mattress different, something softer and plump looking, have leather style straps binding the legs, etc. There are so many ways to make the design something unique.
If copying RL shit is your whole business model, why not just go buy some templates and be a template creator?
This is amusing. You’re implying I’m the owner, which I’m not. Replying to you again since you did in another post above, and that the majority of SL is based off the real world.
For one, they did make a few things different. The mattress portion is more uniform without the lifelike ripples. The curls between the supporting “beams” aren’t interwoven into the beams themselves. The shape itself is slightly off in varying degrees which shows that this was made by a different individual than the one who made the model in 3DSky.
then CP no but Fancy Decor and Loft & Aria yes ???
Pretty much. CP is allowed to be dragged across hot coals, but anyone else gets called out and all of a sudden it’s okay to copy shit from these other sites. I’m sure all these offended event owners, all up in arms over it, will have all these other content theiving stores in their events next month while CP is banned for life.
didnt all their subscription boxes die?
Yes, they did. It was actually sad in the case of the Deco Crate one. They had some nice things.
#1 That is no surprise, Skye for as long as I’ve been in her events has always broken and bent the rules for bigger designers so they will stay in her events meanwhile she treats the rest of us like shit. Favoritism and shady business at its finest.
so jw did you reach out to her or anyone on staff to see if this applied to all creators or are you just bitching to bitch because i messaged her yesterday and was told putting items in the store as a fatpack is fine
Yeah, the fatpack being resold is fine. You just can’t resell the single items on their own. You either need to put gacha + fatpack in store, or just one or the other. No splitting up and selling the gacha pieces solo. The person who submitted just doesn’t have common sense.
@ #42 June Fallon – I felt this way for months. Sucked bone dry of meshing information and then deleted from friends list. Also thought it was suspicious she briefly SL married and divorced Empyrean Forge owner. While I didn’t write this secret, it expresses how bitter I felt. I still wish her the best though. I wish her success in her SL endeavors. June Fallon, if you’re reading this I always wanted to say this to you… I admire your thirst for knowledge. But it’s not fair to extract meshing techniques that took weeks and months to learn from your friends; building tetechniques developed over years and expect to be handed a silver platter. Do the hard work yourself. Either be prepared to pay a tutor or rely on free tutorials. Other wise, respect the boundary of friendship and artistry.
Example: Your friend has a successful restaurant. You ask them all about their cooking recipes and business information until they have nothing left to share. Then open your own restaurant with the SAME cuisine and business practices. Then delete your friend/boyfriend who taught you.
This thread is interesting. I do not know June personally but, what is being described here is rampant in SL, People who ride others coat tails then discard them after getting what they want. I also find those who are turning June into the victim here amusing, well I think it’s just one person but, that’s neither here nor there.
In my humble opinion, true friendship is more than “what your friend can do for you”. Even with the free tutorials available on youtube some creators dont give every detail away, for the more advanced techniques, they create classes where you would have to pay, there are even some SL creators who do the same.
No one owes you anything, you are not entitled to someone else’s knowledge base. What I love about karma and the way the universe works, is that these things always have a way of catching up to the culprit in the long run. It may be lonely at the top but, be good to the people you meet along the way up there because, when you fall, it will still be among friends. Good luck June.
I strongly believe this comment comes from a good place so I’m going to reply to this. What I learn in the working industry is that when I teach others, I am teaching myself to understand it even better (and I got even better and confident in it). When you teach June, it was a win-win for the both of you. Not only she had a good friend who is willing to teach her but you are also improving on your work by looking into what you’re doing and explaining it to others. “Do the hard work yourself. ” she does. She does not buy mesh or contents. Her creativity and content never cease to amaze me. Sure she asks for ideas at times, who doesn’t need suggestions and ideas to spark and make a new product? If June has unfriended you, I am sure it is not because of what you claim it to be which is “sucked the information” from you or others. It is actually due to a rationale reason. Did you think to yourself and self-reflect what it could have been? What I like to share next is something people always read it, being told about but often neglect it which is “Communication is key” if you feel like you did not do anything wrong but got ghosted or deleted then you should simply ask. You may not like the answer but at the same time, it helps you to be a better person. Also to those people who claim they were being ghosted, just like in RL everyone has a life to run. We all have friends that you used to see every day and suddenly it all stop or you start to see them less and lesser but was it because you fought or… Read more »
Forgive me for my ignorance; however, aren’t friends meant to help friends? I hardly feel that giving a friend pointers or even teaching them how to mesh and having that friend then start their own brand does NOT qualify as her using you. (You didn’t say she was using you in so many words but one might deduce that from your comment and confessed bitterness). After all, I am certain that while you taught her, you knew that she planned on opening a store. Sounds like you’re just salty because you two fell out.
Furthermore, your analogy is wrong. Most SL brands follow the same business model so your point there is null. As for cooking recipes, if we compared cooking recipes to content created… she’s taking perhaps the techniques you taught her, but as we stated previously… she’s making all her own content.
Perhaps, instead of writing a comment on SL Secrets, your time would be better invested on self-reflecting and considering what you might have done to add to the deterioration of your friendship with her. You don’t sound over it at all.
It is beyond ‘friends helping friends” to expect that someone will give hours of their time for free. If someone is paying for the lessons or using the plethora of resources already available, such as online tutorials or workshops, to teach themselves, and asking the occasional question of a friend, that might be different. It is messed up that people in SL expect others to give away their time and knowledge. If someone asked me to teach them something IRL so they could use it to run a business, you bet I would charge them for lessons if I were teaching them everything.
Was it hours? Or was it a few questions? Like I said in an earlier comment, we don’t know any of that. All we’re getting is one side and that in itself just screams of bias. And friends should help friends…. without expectation.
You’re right, I don’t know the specifics, nor did I claim to. I spoke in general terms based on what was said here, and I stand by what I said. In general, there are many people in SL who have unrealistic expectations of “friendship.” You’re welcome to think friends should help friends without expectation, but my experience is that most people don’t operate that way and it leaves people open to being used if they think that people are that altruistic. YMMV.
I’m not salty we fell out. It was my choice to cut the friendship once It felt suspicious. I’ve done my self-reflecting and at the end of the day it did not include her as my friend. – The bitterness I felt was like, rape. You feel used. You can forgive but you’ll never forget.
Friends help each other, yes. I knew she was planning on opening her own store, yes. I encouraged her and helped her. But there came a point where it doesn’t feel right. It’s a conflict of interest. That is why I can and do root for her quietly but hell no am I teaching her my personal trade secrets in five minutes which took me a year to develop.
You obviously have not been used by June and spit out after she was done with you. Many have been though. She will show you all of her attention and once she is done, nothing. It’s like she ghosts you and is never heard from again. It is one thing to get pointers and ask for help, it a whole different story to be blantanly used.
I do not allow myself to be used. There is a general rule of thumb… don’t do anything for anyone with the expectation that you will get something in return. For you though, I’m assuming you feel that you were blatantly used… did you derive nothing from that friendship? You did not enjoy talking to her, spending time with her? I mean, you were friends with her for a reason, yea? Perhaps you expected a little something more? The burden then falls on you.
Reading comprehension for the win!
I think what Ok wanted in return was actual friendship. It didn’t sound like they fell out, it sounds like he/she was ghosted.
Hence the bitterness. If a friendship ends and you can point to reasons why, you might be less bitter.
This sounds like they offered help to a friend and once they had no more to give… Poof!
There was no quid pro quo that I can see there other than this;
Don’t delete and ghost your friends after you’ve picked their brain for information. That is shitbag behavior.
Except point blank, you’re taking the word of someone who clearly is in a place of hurt for whatever reason. That in itself showcases a deep bias on their part. I don’t think it’s appropriate or right to take ill spoken words and gossip as gospel. Even more to allow it to tarnish your view on someone. Maybe interact with June and decide for yourself.
