Banned

I just discovered that the neighboring property on two sides of my land has put up ban lines. This wouldn't be too bad, except that the neighbor on the other two sides has an eviction bot running. I'm feeling a bit trapped now. And those ban lines are ugly.

Another year already?

So now I'm four years old (that's 24 in SL years). Not necessarily a real old-timer, but I've been around the sims a time or two.

I admit, I don't get online as much as I used to. Maybe it's changes in RL priorities, maybe it's advancing age :-(, maybe a bit of the original SecondLife magic has gone. Maybe all of the above.

Part of it is that I've been playing around with my own world in OpenSim, writing a graphic novel which is not yet ready for prime time. I'll let you know when I finally get it finished and get up the nerve to have it officially hosted on the Web somewhere. Some of the developments at Lindon Labs the past couple of years make me think that it is a good idea to have a backup world to play in. I may get more familiar with the OS Grid when I get a chance, maybe even put in some effort to help debug OS to where it's not quite as buggy as it is currently.

So onward into the next year. Let's hope my fifth rezday witnesses improvements, both to all of my various lives, and to Second Life as a whole!
