I hope not. I for one would miss you. I'm also hoping that this is just a temporary trend of sorts and vibrancy will return to this space.
I don't have a facebook, a twitter, a reddit, an instagram, or any other social thing so here is it for me lest I go back to Second Life and pretend to be real. Secondlife is a real time suck though. So many days just walking around looking at artificial everything..

Aw. That's sweet of you @spozone.
I don't hold out much hope myself as the decline seems every downward.
I didn't know Secondlife still existed. I thought it's time had also come and gone! 😱
I once met someone who did a doctorate on how much secondlife avatars matched their owners in real life. I think she discovered that no matter how different people tried to make themselves, after about three months, they reverted to their first life behaviours.
Hmmmmm. I definitely don't look like this in real life but I logged on just to take a selfie for you.
BtW I made all of the jewelry and the eyeglasses I'm wearing. I do miss making trinkets there.
Ha, ha, ha. That's hilarious @spozone. So that'a you ideal woman is it?
I think the study conclusions were more to do with personality than what they actually looked like!
Is it possible to be there without an avatar? I don't remember creating one.
Did you resist "walking" around while you were there?
Ideal woman? IDK. That's the other me. The me I'd be if I were ...well I am her. It's still a little confusing at times. I needed a model for the work I was making so I made her. Then I whored her out to pay for uploading textures and 3D models. After awhile, I stopped using original me and just used her. Secondlife is perfect if you have multiple personalities or gender identity issues.
Yes you can get a chat app but it logs your avatar in to a simulator somewhere and you're just standing there with your shoes on your head and your pants for a shirt and don't know it.
In the end I was getting pretty good at making stuff there and was teaching myself how to make 3D fitted mesh clothing and shoes. Girls love shoes and will buy lots of them if they look real and fit nicely.
I still use Lumiya - Android app and log in to chat with old friends. Every now and again I'll even go visit them and hang out or go dancing at an inworld club , but Lord, I'm an ancient on there now.
But isn't that the point. Second Life where nobody knows your
nameage. 😂I'm old and so is my avatar. What does that mean. A few weeks ago I was walking around a sim and this girl messages me saying "OMG, you'rethe oldest avatar I've ever seen on this game", to which I replied "gee thanks you really know how to make a guy feel good about herself" and just logged off
...guy -->herself.. I crack myself up
You crack me up too @spozone. And that avatar looks, what, 26?!!! 😱
🥂Cheers to having identity issues ^.~💕
Have you @gillianpearce and @spozone checked out Decentraland (Mana) I hear it's like Second Life but Ether is the currency?
I've never heard of Decentraland not and I've haven't been on Second Lie for years so not likely to check it out. 😁
